limmins town baseball league was organized ten years ago for the 1923 season, with four teams in the twilight league, as it was often called. The four teams were:â€"Hollinger, Orientals, Holâ€" linger Office and Town. Geo. Pond, who was appointed manager of baseball at a previous meeting, tendered his reâ€" signation, being unable to give the necessary time and a attention to the work, and Jack Marshall was appointâ€" ed in Mr. Pond‘s stead. Rceference was made in The Advance Ten years ago Chief of Police M. Greer and his staff were busy ‘keeping the taxicabs and jitneys in place for Reference was made in The Advance ten years ago to the passing of "blue sky" legislation by the Ontario Farâ€" mers‘ Government. The Advance said at the time that the general feeling was that the legislation was illâ€"advised and practically sure to prove detriâ€" mental to mining progress, without safeguarding the public in any noteâ€" worthy way. A delegation from the Forcupine disâ€" tTrICtT, inCc mayor of dent of 1 Gallagher, reeve of Tisdale, and others from the camp, were in Toronto ten years ago interviewing the Government in regard to road matters in this part of the North. The Government made a definite promise to put the provincial road from Timmins to South Porcupine in firstâ€"class condition this year. It was promised that the road would be finished with tarvia, and that it was eventually intended to finish the whole highway from Timmins to Iroquois Falls with the tarvia tsp. The delegaâ€" tion also received assuranres from the Government as to forest fire protection and other matters, though assurances were about all ever received in the North from that Government. The Advance ten years ago spoke rather ‘bitterly about the wanton and senseless damage to an automobile while in a railway car at the station here. The auto, a handsome new Nash sedan, was maliciously damaged by some sort of criminal fool. ‘The railâ€" road car had been run down the track to be out of the way until it was unâ€" loaded. During the night some person or persons broke the seal of the car, and deliberately smashed the headlights as well as making nasty scratches on the body of the beautifullyâ€"finished car. The damage exceeded a hundred dolâ€" lars, but it was ncot so much the actual loss as the wanton and idiotic destrucâ€" tion that so amazed people here. The car was one just purchased by Dr. Mcâ€" Innis. of the N a definite road fron in firstâ€"C ation from the Porcupine disâ€" luding:â€"Dr. J. A. McInnis, Timmins:; T. F.

They had a special parking place set aside for cars for hire, opposite the station and freight shed on Spruce street, and cars for hire were not to park elsewhere in The annual banquet of the Timmins Citizens‘ Band was held in 1923 at the Queen‘s hotel on May 3rd. The guests were welcomed by Councillor L. S. Newâ€" ton, president of the band, F. J. Wolâ€" no, the bandmaster, and A. Prout, viceâ€" president of the band. Addresses were given by L. S. Newton, A.

He Ten years ago there was a meeting held in the New Empire theatre after the church services on Sunday, May 6th, 1923, the gathering being in the interests of the Navy League of Conada. Capt. G. F. Morris, chaplain and reâ€" presentative of the Navy League headâ€" quarters, delivered an impressive adâ€" dress explaining the plans and purposes of the Navy League and outlining the good work being done by ithe League fcr the sailors and their families. Dr. J. A. MciInnis, mayor of Timmins, ocâ€" cupied the chair. There were pleasing solos by W. Ramsay and J. E. Garrett. F. J. Wolno gave a cornet solo that was much appreciated.

The banquet was unusual in many ways. First, it celeâ€" brated the production of over 500 tons of paper a day, a record for the continâ€" ent. It wans a recognition of the skill ent. 11L WB Vli UIC SR1ll and interest of the men of all departâ€" ments of the Abitibi Power Paper Co. It was also remarkable that 1000 men were banquetted, and the event was carried through as quietly and eff â€" clently as if it had been n> more than a simple afternoon tea for a small group. The immense banquet hall (the paper storage room of the mill) had been made beautiful and attractive by the artistic genius of Mr. Heard, landscape gardener. Messrs J. Kingston and Ed. Stover supplied the "eats" for the scâ€" casion, and the menu and service was indeed nctable. There were brief adâ€" Gresses by R. A. McInnis, general manâ€" ager of the company, Ed. Silver, mill superintendent, Syd Fearn, S. Martin, Fred Chisholim, T. P. Walters, Mayor J. Vanier and others. Two entertainers from Toronto, Miss Ailene Jackson, and Leroy Kennedy, furnished a pleasing programme of entertainment. W. J. Tierney presided for the evening in his usual capable Irish way. The At Home given by Golden Beaver Lodge, A. F. A. M. on May 4th, 1933, proved a delightful success and was much enjoyed by all present,. The hall was artistically decorated, good music for the dancing by Wolno‘s 5â€"piece orâ€" chestra, and cards and other social pleasures were enjoyed. The attendâ€" ance was large and each and all present agreed that it was a delightful event. Announcement was made in The Adâ€" vance ten years ago that the Old, Emâ€" pire theatre had reâ€"opened as moâ€" tion picture house and drew a capacity audience. The building had been reâ€" paired and {reâ€"decorated throughout, with a new front built. The Advance ten years ago said:â€" "Last week a freeâ€"forâ€"all fight outside a poolroom at Kirkland Lake resultec in three casualties. Jos. Poryck was wounded in the head with a piece of pipe. Geo. Sachuk and Pete Labirty were each stabbed and had wounds r2â€" quiring several stitches to close.

Up to date no one knows what the bleeding row was about, but it was a lovely row all right while it lasted. It started around eight c‘clock on Wednesday night and was all over but the stitching a few minutes afterwards.

Professor Tcherâ€" navin adds that these tortures were inâ€" flicted in Leningral prisons chiefly upon educated people, including many wellâ€" known scholars and scientists. All the conviects whom he met at the Solovetâ€" sky Camp told him that the same meâ€" thods were used by the G.P.U. in cther parts of USS.R. as well. The. same methcds were employed to extract conâ€" fessions of guilt from the English emâ€" ployees of ‘the Metropolitanâ€"Vickers Company accused of sabotage against their own employers. What decent naâ€" tion could refrain from placing an emâ€" bargo unon goods from such a savage country?" People of the town and district have been favoured during the past with the marches as played by the Legion bugle band. Due to difficulties with band members leaving the camp, the band was disbanded. .The cost of the instruâ€" ments and drums with which the band is furnished was considered too high an item to have lying idle and it has been decided to reorganize the bugle band, with the original leader, A. Pearce, in charge. All those wishing to assist the Legion bugle band are asked to get in touch with the band leader, or A. Bellamy, who is chairman of the bugle band committee. At present the need is for a few more buglers and one or two drummers. The band practices in the Oddfellows‘ hall, every Monday, evening from 6.45 to 7.25 p.m. and any buglers or drummers will be made welâ€" come at these practices.
