A fourth sister saved herself by jumping through a. window on the second storey of the house. In the absence of a fire brigade neighbours rallied quickly to the scene and the Ontario Forestry Branch took charge of the battle to bring the blaze under control. At seven o'clock none of the bodieshad been found, having apparently been burned to a crisp. The fire which started abouc 4.45 on Tuesday morning, was caused by an explosion of gasoline which Bertha poured on the kitchen stove, mistaking it for coal oil. Instantly the entire house was in flames and the girl dash- ed upstairs in a-vain eflort to carry out. her sick mother and sisters, [3181‘- ishing in the attempt.

In Your Home Town A congregation that filled the church gathered to render the final homage to Professor Sharp. who had been pres- ent at the morning service in the same building the previous Sunday. a few hours before he died in his sleep. Rev. W. A. Beecroft. minister of the Unit- edChurch at Haileybury, conducted the. devotional exercises, and Rev. R. B. Cochrane, North Bay, superintendent of Home Missions for Northern On- tario, spoke briefly at the service. Two hymns, both paraphrases of well-known psalms, were sung, the first “The “Lord‘s men he delivered at the funeral of the late Professor John Sharp. pioneer citizen of Temiskaming. on Wednesday afternoon.

Report of Superintendent District Children’s 15 “Temiskaming District in general and the community surrounding New Liskeard in particular, lost another highly respected resident in the sud- den death of Professor John Sharp, which occurred at his home on Lake Shore Road, New Liskeard, early on Monday morning last,” said The New Lisjkeard Speaker last week. After making reference to the activities for the welfare of the community and the North in which the late Prof. Sharp had interested himself, The Speaker concludedzâ€"“Few men were more wide- ly or more favourably known through- out the agricultural area of the North Country than the late Professor John Sharp. and the floral offerings and large attendance at the funeral ser- vices conducted in the United Church here on Wednesday by Rev.

"Many of us are deeply conscious that these two things were found rich- ly in the life of him who is gone," said the preacher. Mr. Omond said he knew of many men, some of them hold- ing very eminent positions, and others scattered up and down this district. who had confessed their indebtedness to the sympathetic understanding and the encouragement of Professor John Sharp.

It is noth- ing of the kind; it is a long overdue connecting link between existing min- ing camps which have already con- tributed many millions of dollars to public exchequers. and it would do much to develop new mining camps. Around by the Ferguson highway, it is 325 road miles between the two places. while little more than 100 miles of direct road would link them together. Both the provincial and Dominion gov- ernments are plastering heavy taxes on the mining industry, which will greatly retard it. They need to change their point of view.

We believe that the Whole of South Temiskaming is behind the Minister ’of Labour in what he has done and is doing in the interests of the North Country, and that the unjust criticism which has been offered in this instance has not come with any sincere intention to better conditions, either for Temiskam- ing or the country as a whole." ”While all men in public life are sub- ject to criticism. there are usually cer- tain rules of etiquette observed. even in parliaments. One of these, we should think, is that when an attack is made on one member by another of the opposite party there should be some attention paid to facts and conditions generally. We refer to the attack made on Hon. W. A.
