Opened in 1905 by the old Canadian Copper Company, which later became International Nickel. Crean Hill, up to March of 1916, produced 744,747 tons of ore. The avorage content was 2.14 per cent nickel and 2.91 per cent copâ€" per. In January of 1919 opeations ceased. In several of the buildings are drills, wrenches and machinery,. The miners left them there as if they expected to be called back to work the next day But the tools are rusted, as the call never came. Crean Hill derived‘its name from its discoverer, Charles Frances Crean, who obtained the grant in the name of his wife, Ellen, in 1885. Buildings close to mine have roofs with cedar logs spiked together because with blasting in the open pits, huge pieces of rock were hurled into the air. But this safety precaution is no longer nseded. Neither are the signs which read: "No smoking,." aand "Do not oil machinery which is in operation." The boarding house rooms are clutâ€" tered up with old newspapers and emâ€" pty liquor bottles. In one of the cotâ€" tages, and still in good state of repair, an old organ, pumped by means of fool pedals, wheezes a weird dirge as prosâ€" pective buyers try a tune on it. Prices for the homes range from $10 for small shacks to $600 each which the wreckers are asking for the large boarding houses. The school house price is listâ€" ed at $350. It has blackboards and desks, but no purchaser as yet, Caretakers Rueful Caretaker of Crean Hill J. R. Brownâ€" lee, is sad. He and his wife and three children have lived there for two years. "I like it here," Mr. Brownlee said. "We have had all the conveniences, inâ€" cluding . electric light and â€" modern plumbing. We have a cow and make our own butter, grow all our own vegeâ€" tables and have nothing to worry about. I wouldn‘t change places with my boss." Abandoned for nineteen years exâ€" cept for a caretaker, the old mining village of Crean Hill, once a leading nickel and copper producer in Sudbury district, must now be wiped from the face of the earth. By Aug. 3, according to the terms of the contract awarded by the Interâ€" national Nickel Company, the buildâ€" ings must be dismantled, and with a shortage of houses in Sudbury, the homes are selling rapidly.

An officer of the Ontario Fire Marâ€" shal‘s office made an inspection Oof some of the old buildings in the busiâ€" ness section of Kirkland Lake last week and as a result one upstairs rooming house with fourteen men accommodatâ€" ed was ordered closed as unsafe. The building was not a good one, being of light construction and having ~only one exit at the back. In case of fire in the building or near it, the place would appear to be a fire trap in the belief of the Fire Marshal‘s represenâ€" tative. It is well for owners of old buildings in the North to note this case. Therm have been several similar ones in the North recently. The Fire Marâ€" shal‘s office is seeking safety for the general public in case of fire and has the power to order the evacuation of any building deemed a fire hazard. In the case of the Kirkland Lake roomâ€" ing house, the proprietor was given less than a day to get the roomers out and close the place.

A coroner‘s inquest into the death of Charles A.

Coroner H. E. Montzomery will presics. And it was indeed astonishing to find that seats on the Toronto Stock Exâ€" change were selling for more than on the New York Stock Exchange. Coming down to more professional matters, it was something new, he said, to see the spectacular changes in the nature of the mineralization along the main breakâ€"such freakish deposits as thoso of Kerrâ€"Addison, Noranda and then Lamagque. After all this, what? And so he concludes: "You see I am bitten by the prospector‘s urge to see what is over the hill. I would look for big discoveries along the eastern edge of that huge batholith they tell me lies north of Val d‘Or. If I stayed in that country I wciuld go to the devil as a wildcate gambler." Coroner‘s Jury Will Probe Circumstances in Demise of Charles A. Ordway. Inquest in Death of Mine Manager Canada‘s Progress in Mining Industry Herse are some of the outstanding facts that astonished this professional man and his friends: That it was believed Porcupine was bottomed years ago when they reached the greenstons and yet later went beâ€" low that formation and got ore again. It was astonishing to know that a mining plant could separate, or had to separate, one part in 64,000 by weight, the gold from the ore, or one part to 500,000 in volume. We don‘t wish him to end in that way but we do hope this engineer will spread the gospel of Canadian mines, their past, their splendid present, and their far greater future, among friends beâ€" low the line. At no time in history have opportunities been as great or inâ€" vestments safer. A vigitor who saw what this one has seen during his swing around Ontario and who also knew something personâ€" ally of ie greatest era of prosperity in the United States when the West was being built fifty years ago need not have been astonished. Canada has become in two decades the second goldâ€"producing country in the world, through the initiative and unremitting work of its operators, who are as efficient as the world has known, aided by the capital of the genrral public, loosered by fair, conservative newspaper publicity of greater volume than anyother centre has ever enjoyed. We hope this visitor‘s astonishment will be shared by many others, and that each one will decide to see for himself that Canada has the goods and the men over the lareorst belitevedlyâ€" mineralized area left in the land of the white man. "It is only a little," he says, "that my party and I have learned about the mines, but we refuse to be longer conâ€" sidered tenderfeet. We now have much more confidence to hold our gold securiâ€" ties as the result of what we have seen with you." So many men living south of the inâ€" ternational line have such errongeous conceptions of Canada and Canadian conditions, especially in our mining areas, that it is a distinct pleasure to record the impressions of a wellâ€"known consulting engineer of the South, as set forth in a letter sent to a leading mining operator, who took him lunder an informative wing and showered upâ€" on him the unobtrusive hospitality that is second nature to mining men who have with tions Covering the distance from New York to Paris in less than half the time it took Charles Lindbergh in his epic 1927 flight, Howard Hughes and four companions made aviation history in their giant silver monoplane, Covering the distance from New York to Paris in less at the controls for the entire journey, was the first than half the time it took Charles Lindbergh in his| fliler to make the trip since Lindberghs, and it toox epic 1927 flight, Howard Hughes and four companions | him just 16 hours and 35 minutes for the 2,160 mile made aviation history in their giant silver monoplane, | flight, compared to the 33‘% hours taken by the "Lone "New York Worlds Fair, 1939," and were expected to| Eagle" 11 years ago.

Toronto, July 13.â€"The men of the Canadian Corps who were falsely reâ€" ported dead, or "missing and believed dead," will band themselves into an organization, one of the suggested names of which is the "League of Forâ€" gotten Men," at the Canadian Corps reunion, which opens July 30. With each candidate for membership the hero of a happyâ€"ending story, the group has fixed on "Wake Up and Live" as its motto. genesis of the new group. James Shephard of Toronto, who was reportâ€" ed dead August 9, 1918, near Amiens, was named President, pro tem. Men Reported Missing or Dead in W ar to Form Club The first step toward membership will be the setting up of a "dead man‘s headquarters" in the Exhibition Grounds, where prospective members will be able to register. Details are still being worked out, but it has been suggested the skull and crossbones be a dominant motif in the decorations. The headquarters is expected to beâ€" come a centre for some of the most poignant of all war yarnsâ€"Of the men who came back only after family and frinnds had abandoned hope. â€" There will also probably be one more revival of the story of how Mark Twain charâ€" acterized a very premature report of his own death as "greatly exaggerated." Three Injured in Car Crash Near Larder Lake Reunion headquarters was asked for permission to form the organization by three veterans who would be eligible for membership. Two of them were reâ€" ported dead, the third "missing and believed dead." The number of those eligible would run into the hundreds, Major T. M. Medland, General Manager of the reâ€" union, said Monday, in outlining the had been driving with four people in the front seat. Another passenger Sylâ€" via Ryan, was not hurt.

Learn the simplicity of the Schafer method of artificial reâ€" spiration and teach your lads how to practise it on one another. 5. One of the most important preâ€" cautions is that you and your chilâ€" dren avoid the use of raw milk. If pasteurized milk is not available, heat the milk in a double boiler to 145 deâ€" grees F. Maintain this temperature for 03 minutes. Then rapidly cool the milk to 40 or 05 degrees F. and keep it at this temperature until it is used. Pasteurization kills all the disease germs in the milk. The use of milk so treated does not injure the qualities of the product. Its use may save yclur georms in the milk. The use of milk so treated does not injure the qualities of the product. Its use may save yciur child from a host of milkâ€"borne disâ€" eases. People living in cities where milk is pasteurized are likely to take it for granted and to forget that in many areas where the significance of pasâ€" teurization is not realized much raw milk is still sold. When going on holiâ€" days always enquire as to whether the milk supplied you is pasteurized or not. For the sake of your health and your children‘s health insist on pasteurized milk onlv. Hints for Health for Summer Vacation The annual summer holiday is deâ€" signed to improve the health of you and yciur children. Care should be taken that proper benefit of this holiâ€" day is gained and that its benefit is not impaired by accident or preventable disease. Th following precautions are eminently worth while. 1. Be sure that the water supply is safe. If you are not satisfied with the character of this supply, boil the water. Cool and aerate it by pouring the water from one jug to another. Also ask the Provincial Health Department for inâ€" formation as to a practical method of purifying water. Some Provinces furâ€" nish a simple apparatus for this purâ€" pose at cost. An additional precaution is the use of antiâ€"typhoid vaccine which also is supplied by the Health Departâ€" ment. 4. If yoiu are camping out, extinguish all fires before you leave camp. 3. Take a small firstâ€"aid kit with y_u. There will always be burns, bites and sceratches to be dressed. Take Special Care in Reâ€" gard to Water, Milk, Fire, First Aid. By J. W.

Not the United Kingdom, surely. Not Germany, Italy or Japan, or the nation which knows us almost as well as we know ourselves. Where the gain in trying to fool ourselves? It‘s time to ond the nonsense. When we owe our entire security to Britain, what right have we to offer less than all our facilitiee without strings tied to them to strengthen the means of security? This, we believe, is the quesâ€" tion Canadians are asking today. Try The Advance Want Advertisements Canada‘s Duty as a Part of the Great British Empire in affording facilities to British pilots if that will be of service to them." Even this does not modify the impliâ€" cations of the speech as a whole that the Canadian Government would preâ€" f2r to have no association between this country and the training of British airâ€" men. Affording the facilities of our own inadequate establishments is just about the equivalent of warning that it can‘t be done. This country cannot stand halfway between absolute independence and wholeâ€"hearted membership in the Briâ€" tish Commonwealth of Nations. It is futile to try to jump from one position to the other according to circumstances and political expediency. Fenceâ€"stradâ€" dling attempts are grotesque and altoâ€" gether unworthy of British citizenship. Not an intelligent being in the counâ€" try or out of it but knows that were we to cut loose from Britain we would be at the mercy of every major predatory naâ€" tion. We would be utterly helpless. Our baasted standing in the world would ‘be a joke. Why pretend that it would be otherwise? (From The Globe and Mail) Passages from Prime Minister King‘s address on the training of British air pilots in Canada have been lifted from Hansard by the Toronto Daily Star to prove the speech was not as bad as it seemed. If Mr. King told the British authoriâ€" ties less than that the whole land was at their disposal, that streets could be torn up, buildings wrecked, the counâ€" tryside laid out in runways, with broad lakes and high mountains available for all sorts of tests in all kinds of weaâ€" ther; that the Dominion of Canada was proud of an opportunity to help the Mother Country strengthen her deâ€" fense forcesâ€"if he said less than this he did not fulfill the Government‘s duty or truly represent Canadian wishes. Loyal Britishers are not likely to be impressed by special emphasis on two paragraphs, the burden of which is: "We are quite prepared, in connection with our own establishments, to help in affording facilities to British pilots if that will be of service to them."
