Everyone at the social had a good time. Comrade W. Elphick in his usual hapâ€" py manner made an ideal M.C., and I‘m sure "Raspberry‘" enjoyed himself as well as anyone present.

Comrade Elphick‘s musical chairs for both ladies and genâ€" tlemen, provoked much fun, and the Paul Jones and a square dance being greatly enjoyed. Refreshments: were handed round to the large gathering and the event came to a close with "God Save the King" at midnight. Another pleasant success for the Timâ€" mins Branch 88 Canadian Legion! Comrade Parscns from the Dome dropâ€" ped in with some clothing. ‘"Tront‘. never comes emptyâ€"handed, and the clothing sent by Mr. Stovell from the Dome will be a welcome gift to comâ€" rades in need. Application forms are to hand from the following comrades: namely, Albert Bell, James Brown and John A. White. I have great pleasure in stating that we have four more honorary members this week namely, R. J. Ennis Esq., R. Eddlestone Esq., F. M. Burke Esq., an« S. Whittam Esq. This brings our list to twenty, and I‘m sure the branch should be congratulated on having such a fine list of honorary members. We are indebted to Mr. Ennis in several ways, and his interest in the returned soldiers, and the branch is greatly apâ€" preciated. Many a returned soldier has found work at the McIntyre, and the branch should be thankful for the }courtesy extented to returned soldiers by the manager of the McIntyre. t Sss S .I have just had a notice from the Civil Service Commission. Applicaâ€" tions are invited for the post of careâ€" taker for the Department of Public Works in Timmins. The salary is $1200.00 per annum less $300.00 per anâ€" num for maintenance. The qualificaâ€" tions required are as follows:â€"Ability to read and write, and preferably primary school education; experience in janitor or related work; knowledge of modern cleaning methods and imâ€" plements; ability to operate stoves, furâ€" naces, or other minor heating plants; good physical condition. The Commisâ€" sion have sent me five application forms. Any comrade requiring one kindly call at 165 Spruce north. Apâ€" plicants must be British subjects and must have resided in Canada at least three years. Many of the comrades will notice we are now a branch. One of our honorâ€" ary members remarked that we have knocked the "Post‘" from under, and we were more secure as "Branch." I think all will admit that "branch" sounds better, and we have a little more swing on a "branch," than a "post." There seems to be little misunderâ€" standing, or doubt with a few of our comrades, regarding their cards. I will try to explain how the system has been working. The quarters are from Janâ€" uary 1st to March 31st; from April 1st to June 30th; from July lst to Sept. 30th, and from October Ist to Dec. 3ist. UIALAIILILLLLLLLLLLLLZL, ;::::::::;::::,"/://///// s ; i7 ; : i7 /7 //// Z4 L LLL 8P 8 RY * we *** ‘.\.-.o ONTARIO 38 C / ////// THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Y § u§ ty s //7/, 7//// IP es y/// Any comrade joining the branch the last week in any of the quarter endâ€" ings, is down on the books of the Leâ€" gion, provided that the cards bears the date up to the end of last quarter. We send the ‘forms to Toronto, Toronto checks the forms, and sends them to Ottawa. Ottawa issues the card and badge, which usually takes around tep| days. One of our new members jokâ€"| ingly replied that he thought we had stung him for one dollar, but as he had had the matter explained, he did not| mind being stung in that way, as it all went for a good cause. So I hope rest of our new comrades do not feell they have been stung unjustly as it is | up to the officers of the Legion to get on the books as soon as possible. On | the other hand we have some comrades who were not on the books of the Leâ€"| gion until from six to eight months' after they had paid their initiation fee. What they had paid was credited from the date they had stamped on their cards, six to eight months after they had joined the branch in Timmins. This was due to the application forms, being held in Timmins and not sent in to Toronto. The system at present isl as follows:â€"Once the application is in to box 1059 with the initiation fee,| and first quarter‘s dues, the secretaryâ€"| treasurer gets busy, and the application form is duplicated and on its way to Toronto, in less than twentyâ€"four hours | after the form and dues are received. By carrying out this system, we have a comrade on the books of the Legion in Ottawa, within ten days after his application form and dues are received, and the comrade has his card and badge which he has paid for, and which he is justly entitled to. Our motto is: "Courtesy and Service," which we find pays in the long run, better than to "Ignore and Delay." I trust this will explain our system satisfactorily to any comrade in doubt, and the comrades can all rest assured that the longest any Legion business remains without attention. is twentyâ€"four hours. I will give the comrades an illustration of one splendid response I had this week from a comrade in Schumacher. I posted a statement at 6.30 a.m. Friâ€" day, addressed to Schumacher. I had the reply and enclosure at 7.30 p.m. the same night. I posted the receipt at 6.30 am. on Saturday, and our comâ€" rade had it the same afternoon. This comrade evidently appreciates "action," and I‘m sure I appreciate his "action" in being so prompt with his reply. The provincial secretary is also very prompt with his replies. A letter postâ€" ed in Timmins on a Monday to Toronâ€" to is answered and back in Timmins by Wednesday night sometimes, and never later than Thursday. The kindly help and advice from the provincial secreâ€" tary, has been of great assistance, in placing the Timmins Branch to the fore in the Canadian Legion, and makâ€" ing it "the outstanding branch" of the whole North Country. In our relief work this week, we were able to provide a comrade with a new outfit of working clothes. We also helped another comrade with a cheque whose outlook was very black, but the silver lining to his troubles appeared with the cheque provided by the Leâ€" gion. It is worthy of note, that only two Legion members have had relief this winter, the whole of our relief work going to nonâ€"members and some members who had dropped the Legion. The fact alone that we are always ready to help a comrade, whether a Legion member or not, should get us many new members in the future. We are in a good sound condition, with many good comrades, who work for the good of the Legion. In conclusion I would say a word of advice to the "disâ€" gruntled." We pleaded for months for their support. Some I have sent severâ€" al letters to, even enclosing stamped addressed envelope for a reply. Some have had personal letters explaining what had to be done. We even adverâ€" tised in the local paper. We did all humanly possible before we were comâ€" pelled by the provincial command to either "swim" or "sink," and on the top of all this, we have even come to the aid of some who were in want. If you cannot say a good word for the Legion, don‘t say anything, as we believe in the old, old saying, "Sticks and stones may break our bones but, "calling‘ won‘t New Branch Manager at Timmins for Bank Here Our books are open at all times for inspection, and as I had only to .post a little more than a third of our presâ€" ent strength, of 176 members, stateâ€" ments for the current quarter, that is something at least to be proud over, end with such a creditable lot of comâ€" rades we have nothing to fear. Don‘t forget the general meeting on Monday, March 24th, advertised in this issue. Mr. D. R. B. White, who comes to Timmins as manager Oof the local branch of the Bank of Montreal, is a native of Maunitoba, and had wide exâ€" perience as manager in Western branches of the former Merchants Bank of Canada prior to that bank beâ€" ing taken over by the Bank of Monâ€" treal. Since 1921 he has been manager of the Napanee branch of the bank, and last year was captain of the Naâ€" panee golf club. Mr. J. W. Wallace, whom he succeeds, has been promoted to the management of the Westingâ€" house Avenue branch in Hamilton. Mr. Wallace left on Sunday to take up his new duties. The Speaker last week called attenâ€" tion to the need for a new hockey and skating rink at New Liskeard. Ten â€"The Secretary~â€"Treasurer. Notes Regarding the Ontario Legislature Thirtyâ€"two wolves were killed in A!â€" gonquin Park last year, Hon. Mr. Finâ€" layson stated to the Legislature. George wW. Ecclestone, (Con. Muskoâ€" | ka) was elected chairman of the fish and game committee of the Legislature at its organization meeting. This week the committee will discuss whether orâ€" ganized bear hunts shall be allowed in Ontario although they might clash with the closed season on deer. Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines, Game and Fish, suggested that the hunters should be heard at next Wedâ€" nesday‘s meeting. Work of the comâ€" mittee will be divided into branches, to discuss matters pertaining to fishing regulations. Other subjects to come before the committee include whether Ontario should have a buckâ€"law, whereby deer shooting will be confined to buck only; the use of dogs in huntâ€" ing and the matter of a closed season for foxes; licensing matters; wolf bounties: snares; rattlers; spearing and the matter of whether pike and picâ€" kerel shall be considered game fish. Further developments in the drilling in the lignite fields at ‘Blacksmith Rapids were disclosed in reports issuâ€" ed by Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines. This report shows that in. a new drilling area, a thickness of ligâ€" nite of 58 feet was found, which is conâ€". sidered an excellent showing and probâ€" ably the largest thickness that will be found in the lignite development. Amendments to the Mining Act, inâ€" troduced to the Legislature, ‘by Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines, were declared satisfactory to all secâ€" tions of the mining industry. The reâ€" gulations call for further tightening of mine work to protect the miners. ‘"The Act has been evolved only after conâ€" siderable thought and pain." said Hon. Mr. McCrea. "It will stand as a model to all provinces. Ontario has someâ€" thing now which I believe will work out eminently well in the mining industry. Many conferences were held with minâ€" ing officials before the bill was passed." Hon. George S. Henry, Minister of Highways, informed the Legislature that a total of $9,250,000 was collected Teachers‘ Bowling Scores for the Week of March 12 in gasoline tax of which 2% per cent. was paid to the companies as commisâ€" sion for collection. Rebates to farmers totalled $527,000. The following are the scores for the Teachers‘ Bowling league for March 12thâ€" W. James J. Bogie . B. Gowan M. Morrison G. Hughes H. White .. G. Everett W.

The Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association will hold its annual meetâ€" ing this year in the new C.N.R. hotel at Halifax, NS., the second week in Sseptember. This was decided at the directors‘ meeting held in Ottawa some days ago. Geo. Lake, publisher of The Porcupine Advance, Timmins, was one of the twentyâ€"one directors present from such widely separated places as Vancouver ‘Island and New Glasgow, N.S. In the past these conventions have been held in June or July but the time selected this year is said to be a most delightful one for visiting the Maritimes. Reports presented at the directors‘ meeting showed 1929 to have been one of the most successful in the history of the association. There was an increase in memberâ€" ship and the year closed with a cash balance that was of highly gratifying proportions. Hugh Savage, president and E. Roy Sayles, managing director, were apâ€" pointed to represent the association at the Imperial Press Conference to be held in London, England, in June. The directors were guests of the E. B. Eddy Co., Hull, at luncheon and afterwards made a tour of the comâ€" pany‘s great paperâ€"making plant, where huge machines turn out newsâ€" print at amazing speed; where book papers, writing papers, tissue papers for various purposes and other proâ€" ducts are manufactured by the most modern processes. In the evening they were entertainâ€" ed at dinnrv~ in the Chateau Laurier by Mr. Savage, the president, and had the pleasure of hearing Hon. Dr. King, Minister of Health and C. H. Dickie, M.P. for Nanaimo. At the Bonaventure Station the C. P.R. entertained the visitors at lunchâ€" eon at the elegant C.P.R. hotel there. The visitors had a very happy time, Mr. Harry Smith, the popular chief press repesentative of the C.P.R., being among the leading C.P.R. men who saw that all had a good time. Goderich Signalâ€"Some enterprising newspaper men at Ottawa should be "in" at the first meeting of Miss Agnes MacPhail and the Hon. Mrs. Wilson. Will the lady senator cut the lady M.P. because the latter is ‘"only a comâ€" moner?" Or will Miss MacPhail turn up her nose at the lady senator, beâ€" cause she (Miss MacPhail) was electâ€" ed, while Mrs. Wilson is only an apâ€" pointee? Or will the lady senator boast of her eight children, whi\le Miss Macâ€" Phail proclaims her scorn of the marâ€" ried state? Or will they argue the relative merits of Liberal and U.F.O. politics? Or will they, being women, @fondly embrace and compare notes on how they put it over the men? At any Erat-e, there‘s material for a good story in that first meeting.
