.o.u., £rt -.,‘“ 4 § 10 Wilson Avenue Attracted by a brilliant vitrolite black and yellow front where the Ideal rooms once were, those in search food had a pleasant surprise the moment they enâ€" tered the place. The choice of accommodation is wide. One may chcose the bar with its littl2 red swivel chairs; another may choose one cf the white linened tables that stretch down the full length of the cenâ€" tre of the restaurant, where red leather and walnut armchairs give promise of comfort; another maty choose a seat in one of the 11 generousâ€"sized semiâ€" booths where there is a little more priâ€" vacy. All told, the restaurant can take care ‘of 88 people comfortably. Owner Was With T. N. O. C. E. Knowlys, owner of the Grill, was formerly in charge of all the T. N. O. cateringâ€"restaurants and dining cars. He left that job to open the restaurant here. "I‘ve been in the business all my life," he told The Advante, "since I worked for the Canadian Railway News company from the time I was a boy." His idea is to make and keen the grill the smartest restaurant in Timmins. The frod will be on a par with that of the best large Canadian restaurants. The Argyle Grill, Timmins‘ new resâ€" taurant, strikes an entirely new note in that important business here.

TTMMINS, ONTARIO Better Roads Chief Need of North Land "It is a reasonable assumption that all members of the Ontario Legislature are alive to the highway needs of the North Country. And, also, it may be taken for granted that ithe people of older Ontario ar> becomirg North Onâ€" tarioâ€"conscious. It is to their own inâ€" terest that they should. Recent coâ€" crperation ~between the Federal and Prcovincial Governmnts for the purpose of building roads to developing mining centres indicates that all Parliamenâ€" Girl Guides The 5list ILO.D.E. Girl Guides held thz:ir regular meeting on Friday eveâ€" ning. Atterdance,and inspection were taken by Captain Cranston. Horseshoe was formed and the Poppy patrol raised the flag. The Girl Guide Prayer was then repeated. Ecme games were played and the Guides wert to their Patrol corners. Mrs. Maxwell passed the following girls in the tests for their B:ookâ€" Lovers‘ Badge:â€"Jean Cowan, Christire Brown, Elsie Clatworthy, Elsie Sheridan, and Gladys Cooper. She also passed Helen Landers and Kathletn Wilkinson in the Ranger tests for the same badge. A circle was formed for campfire. The tea tickets for the bazaar to be held on Dezc. 5 were given out to the Guides. who have anything for the baâ€" zaar are asked to bring it in to Helon Landers next week. The meeting closed with the sirging of "Evensong" and "Taps." Brownies The 46th LO.D.E. Brownie Pack held a meeting on Friday evening. The Fairy Circle was formed and the attendance and inspection taken by Acting Brown Owl Bailey. The fcllowing editcrial article in The Toronto Globe on Friday last will be read with gentral interest:â€" ‘"Northern Ontario continues to press for better highways, and that is not surprising. It is general knowledge that good roads are a chief need of any new ccuntry, and especially in a district which, because of minirg and agriculâ€" tural development, is becoming impaâ€" tisnt with the progress bsing made toward improved avenues of transporâ€" taticr. Once more this subject is prought to public attention, this time by means of a resolution endorsed by deleâ€" gates of eight Boards of Trade in the Temiskamirg and Northern Ontario Railway territory. Meeting at New Lisâ€" keard, th:se delegates asked Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chamâ€" ers of Commerce to bring pressure on members of the Legislature for the purâ€" pose of arcusirg thsir interest in Norâ€" thern Ontario, ‘in the hope that the main highways will be paved agid made safer for the travelling public.‘ Some work was done on the Lon* Guides scrapbook. It is to be completed next week, ard all Rangers arse asked to be present or to serd their contriâ€" [;sution to the magazine. The next meeting will be held on Thursday, November 26th, at the Ho!â€" linger Rocreation hall, beginning at 7.30 p.m. sharp. Gladys Langman, Joyce Lalonde ard Myrtle Knell passed their bedâ€"making tets. The Brownies wire then sent to their corners. Miss Bailey, Captain Crarston and Helen Landers passed the followâ€" ing for the Second Class Badge: Dorsâ€" thy Gibson, Jurs Webber, June Kelly, Helen Moran, Kathleen Backhouse, Ola Hclland, Eileen Patterson and Janet McMillan. The followirz is the report of the meetings of the Timmins Girl Guides, Rangers and Browries last week:â€" The 9th LO.D.E. Rangers held their regular meeting last Wednesday eveâ€" ning at 2 Hemiock street. A circle was formed and plans were discussed for the fish pond which the Brcwnies are to take over at the Girl Guide bazaar. The meeting closed with Pack Howl. Emphasis Given to This Fact by Meeting of Associated Boards GIRL GUIDES On a Job W here such High Standards Were Demanded The Logical Choice Was SMITH ELSTON â€" ARGYLE GRIL L ; tarians are keenly interested in a socâ€" tior of the country which, by its minâ€" eral production, did so much toward t‘ding the Doemirion over the recent hard years. That, again, is a commonâ€" sense view to take, even leaving aside the qautstion of selfâ€"interest. "At the mecting in New Liskeard credit was given the Government for a great deal of work done in the makâ€" ing of roads, but it was felt that more would be done if Queen‘s Park had the support of an informed public cpinicn. The main purpose in mird was that the government formulate a definite rcadâ€"building policy for the North Country. This is a reasonable view of the situation. "More than that, a trainload of memâ€" bers of the Toronto Board of Trade teâ€" certly toured the North Country for the express purpose of securing by pSrâ€" sonal cbservation the information neâ€" cessary to an understanding of the needs of this comparatively new tsrriâ€" tory. All this reveals a growing interest in Northern Ontario, a desire to know what should ‘:e done to promots its progress and makse more comfortable the living conditions of its citizens. No pecple can be contented without reasâ€" onably good roads. "The roadâ€"building problem in clder Ontario should be less serioaus from this on, as the country is fairly well previded with chief highways. The situation that is passirg was outlin<d by Hon. Duncan Marshall in an adâ€" dress at Canningtor in qonnection with the East Hastings campaign. He stat:d that, because of heavy dsbt incurred in the building of rcads, the present Adâ€" ministration had isesn unable to devot? the gasoline tax to the making of other roads. ‘We have been tryirg to pay off some of these with the income from the tax on gasoline,‘ and he addâ€" ed: ‘Mr. Hepburn said that the roads of the future will be built out of revâ€" enue.‘ "At all events, what the North desires is being securedâ€"inctreasing interest in and > knowledge of what the country wants. All eyes are centred on the TO INSTALL THE PLUMBING and HEATING IN THE FINE NEW THE ARGYLE GRILL "Timmins‘ Smartest Restaurant" Our Policy The Grill will offer a continuous service Twentyâ€"Four hours a day.
