Mr. Black exhibited motion pictures in regard to the work together with a brief explanatory adâ€" eral to Bennet enforce troller.

Hoggarth, principal of the public school here at the time, menticned two very importâ€" ant matters in regard to the work of the Timmins public school. One was that the rule had been made that unâ€" less pupils started to school at onc2 they would lose their promotions, and The Advance urged parents to see that their youngsters were attending schcol at the start of the term, nct only to assure their standing in the classes but also for the sake of the z2neral educaâ€" tion and advancement of the youngâ€" sters. The other important announcseâ€" ment was that a continuation class had been added to the Timmins public school, and so the pupils had the opâ€" portunity to take up High School work here for the first time. spoil tI In 1917 party was taksn cn a trip through the mines and also on a little voyage up the river where they enjoyed the scenâ€" ery and noted th> possibilities of the country. A visit was also paid to South Porcupins and other places of interest. There was a mesting of the brethren ocf the Golden Beavier Lodge, A. F. A. M., and visiting brethren, in the eveâ€" ning. Golden Beaver Lodze presented the Grand Master with a bheautiful gold nugget suitably engraved, as a to of the occasion. The tcast to the Grand Master was very ably proposed by Dr. H. H. Moore, and responded to apprcpriately, eflectively and eloquentâ€" ly by W.M. Broa. Wardrope. The Twenâ€" tyâ€"secondâ€" Masonic District was the toast proposed by Wor. Bro. D. A.

And despite the weather most of the people were cptimistic @nough to have a good time. It takes more than rain to kill an cptimist. And to live in the North Land a man or a woman wiast be an optimist. All children are cptimists until they are spoiled. Iroâ€" quois Falls has done so much good work since last year with cinders, gravel, macadam, etc., to say nothing of lawn grass and sod that the clinging mud that was so noticeable and affecâ€" tionats in 1917 was only to be found this year in a very few places. In the firem>n‘s tournament Cochrane won everything. Timmins and South Porâ€" cupine tied for second place in the hose reel race, and divided the $25.00 cheque rather than run it over in the rain. Ssuth Porcupine made a smooth and speedy run, but Timmins lost out through having to wait for water, the low pressure being a new ont for the Timmins team. â€" Timmins was fcurth in the ladder race. Timmins was honoured on August 31lst, 1918, by a visit from Most Worâ€" shipful the Grand Master of the Grand Ledge of Ontario of the Masonic Order, M.W. Bro. W. H. Wardrope, K.C. of Hamilton.

One newspaper commenting on tne $30 a week pension scheme suggests that Mr. McAdoo took the wrong plan to counâ€" teract the scheme.: Instead of seriously pointing out that the scheme was imâ€" possible on its face, the newspaper said that the defeated candidate was defeated because he missed his big chance. He should simply have raised the anteâ€"said he would pay $100 a week for life. Should there be any question as to how this amount could be raised the newspayper‘s proposal was to the effect that the money could be what may be done in the way Of politiâ€" cal propaganda. It is intoresting to note that whether the "cheques" were the one main cause or not, the candidate in whose behalf they were issued was elected by a handsome majority. He defeatâ€" ed the noted Mr. McAdos, a member of more than one United States govâ€" ernment. It remains to be seen whethâ€" er there will be a majority demand for dress at the New Empire theatre, In the car wore samples of the hundreds of different kinds of woods grown in this country, with notes as to the loâ€" cality where they grow, and other parâ€" On Sept. 3rd, 1918, N. Burke, exâ€"chief of police of Cobailt, was appointed to the police force here, to succeed Conâ€" It seems unnecessary to add that there is no hint of where the money could be raised to pay "every Califorâ€" nian citizen over fifty‘" any $30.00 a month or even any smaller amount. In other words there is no practical or possible basis for the implied promicc of $30 a week for life, The whole cheque is no more than an apparently deliterate attempt to mislead,. There is reason to think that Canada‘s elecâ€" tion laws would make such a device illesal. In California, however, tens of thousandsâ€"perhaps hundreds of thousands of those "rubber cheques" were issued and spread all over the State. One of thoese was sent to Mr. Woodbury‘s brother, apparently as a matter of routine in the effort to reach and to impress all voters in the State, The "cheque" was forwarded to Mr. Wosdbury as a curious example i0f what may be done in the way of politiâ€" ticul stable Greer, who had resigned. Norâ€" man M:olIvor, of the Dome Mines, was appointed engineer at the pump house at the time, who was confined to bed month, to suceeed Martin Myles. who had resign=ed. Chief of Polics Wilson was appointed truant officer, his salary being raised to $125.00 per month. This week Mr. Vincent Woodbury reâ€" ceived an unusual example of the lengths that are followed in the way of politiâ€" cal trickery in some United States elecâ€" tions. The sample, which was used by the thousands in the recent election in California, takes the form of what apâ€" pears at first glance to be an official cheque for thirty dollars. The sample is printed in the form of a cheque and on what looks like the ordinary safety paper used for cheques. It is duly numbered and prominent on the face of the paper are the words, "State of California." The main part of the "cheque" is printed in type, but the dat> line, the line for the payee‘s name and the amount are at first glance written in ink, though as a matter of fact these lines are also printed from a plate, tens of thousands of the forms having bkeen issued by one of the Caliâ€" fornian election candidates. A second glance at the ‘"cheque‘", of course, shows that it is not a cheque, but even then further study is needed to show that it is not in any way official, and instead of being a state document or form of any kind, it is the most brazâ€" en of political chicanery. With an ofâ€" ficial looking design including an eagle in one corner, the "cheque" reads in part as follows:â€"*"Retirement Life Paymentsâ€"by Initiative Constitutional Amendment the People Propose to Amend the Constitution of the State of California." Then follows on a date line:â€""On or Before Nov. 8th, 1938." And another line reads:â€"**"To Pay to the order of You and Every California Citizen Over Fifty, $30.00. Thirty dolâ€" lars a week for Life. Payable in Dolâ€" lar Warrants of the State of California. Receivable in payâ€" ment of all State, County and City Taxes. Exempt from State Income Tax and State Sales Tax. Transferâ€" able by delivery without endorsement." Of course, there is no such "Retireâ€" Life Payments" in force in the State of California, and no legislaâ€" tion suggesting any such thing. Thern» are no "warrants of the State of Califâ€" ornia" for any such purpose. As a matter of fact, the scheme has never even been discussed in the State legisâ€" lature. Instead the "cheque‘" is simply a devious form of political propaganda to advertise an election promise, o1 similar to that perpetrated by the present premier of Alberta to seâ€" cure office. The chief difference seems to be that while Premier Aberhart promised only $25 a month, this plan offers $30 a week to all over fifty. All this is shown by a couple of lines in very small type in the lower left hand corner of the "cheque." These two lines nsad: "This is advertising to acquaint you with this great people‘s movement." Also on the "cheque" appear the words: "Life Begins at Fiftyâ€"with $30 a Week for Life." Under the signature line, ‘"California Pension Plan," are the words, "Your coâ€"operation is requestâ€" ed. Snd your. name, address and thirty cents for a membership. card." This, too, is all in very small type.
