The writer apparently did not notice the question mark after the phrase. There will be a series of such pictures published and the hope is that there will be many comments and questions about them, and that anyone noting an error will call attention to it and corâ€" rect it, so that the facts may be known and kept straight. There will be a welcome, too, for any further inforâ€" mation in regard to early days. While the writer of the note below tells of the first building in the Porcupine camp, he does not give the location of it. This is important, as the picture published with thetitle, "First Buildâ€" ing in Porcupine?" referred to the first building in Porcupine (Golden City}. Mr. Joseph Clouthier who was in Golden City in its earliest days says the picture published was certainly ONE of the first. The following is the letter referred to:â€" South Porcupine, Jan. 25. 1938. To the Editor of The Advance, Timmins. Dear Sir:â€"Monday‘s Advance has a picture of a building and it says "Fi®st Building in Porcupine." Well, it‘s a long way from being the first, because the first was erected by Geo. Bannerâ€" man and his men. George started the rush and the second buildings were those at the Dome Mine, namely a sleep camp, a cookery, and an office building erected by J. S. Wilson and his gang, who were the first party to Porcupine in 1909, having waited at what is now Monteith for the ice to break up in May, and Geo. Bannerman came just 12 days after Wilson. â€"One of Wilson‘s Men Who Ought to Know. e Snowball Case Losing his temper when he was hit on the side of the head with a snowball as he passed in his truck, Edgar Tailleâ€" GEORGE A.

The local council, at its regular meetâ€" ing Monday night, instructed town clerk Harrington to write the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, informing that body that the council has gone on record as being opposed to the suggestâ€" ed raise in licenses, on the ground that reception from Canadian stations in the town of Cobalt is poor.

It is good, clean, hilarious fun, and the film is also notable for good acting. The dog in the picture alone is worth the price of admission. This dog is one of the best of actors in his line in the moves toâ€"day. The cast for "The Awâ€" ful Truth" includes Irene Dunne, Gary Griant, Ralph Bellamy and Alexander Darcy. There were good crowds at the showings at the Palace but conditions were unfortunate for many. Not only was the snowstorm a means of keeping many away, but the other attractions on Monday and Tuesday also prevented many from seeing this excellent film. These unfortunates will be pleased to know that they still have a chance to see this remakable pictiure. It will be the feature at the Mascioli theatre, in Schumacher, on FPriday and Saturday of this week. Anyone who missed it here should take the trip, and go and see "‘The Awful Truth."

Jan. 25â€" Vernon Spencer, Wixom, Mich., was formally arraigned before Magistrate Andrew Elliot in police court here toâ€" day on a charge of murdering Helen Grier, Pontiac Mich., at Dr. A. A. Holâ€" comb‘s hunting lodge at Glendale on Oct. 28, 1937. ‘"Not guilty," said J. A. McInnis, Spencer‘s counsel, when the charge was read. Dr. J. R. McRae, Sault surgeon, deâ€" scribed external injuries he discovered in post mortem examination of the girl‘s body. There was a fracture at the back of the head with extravacation of blood in the tissues surrounding the place of the fracture. The murder charge was adjourned sine die with the consent of Defance Counsel J. A. MacIinnis, K.C., after hearing of the doctor‘s evidence. Date ! for the completion of the preliminary hearing will be set later. | The blow at the back of the girl‘s skull would have rendered the girl unâ€" conscious and she would have bgen unable to fire the gun herself afterâ€" wards, he told Crown Attorney J. L. O‘Flynn. The injury would be such as to render her unconscious, he said. He said, considering the girl‘s heigl;n and the thickness of her hair, that he doubted if the fracture at the back of the skull could be caused by a fall to a smooth floor. The stomach contents had not been analyzed as far as he knew. Dr. McRae told defence counsel. Fatal Injuries Described at Sault Ste. Marie Trial There was a bullet wound in the right temple. A flattened bullet was lodged inside the skull at the left side, he said. Iry The Advance Want Advertisements HON. W. L.
