The summer school held this year at Porcupine (Golden City) proved an outstanding success in every way, The fact that there was an attendance of 116 is of the popularity of the summer school while the classes themâ€" selves were ‘without doubt most inâ€" spiring and beneficial. Any observer may easily see and realize the good work accomplished by this school and the leadership qualities being develâ€" oped. The success of the classes is all the more remarkable when it is conâ€" sidered that attendance was not com â€" pulsory but that the interest and atâ€" traction of the course drew a large number for so small a community, There is sound reason in the question asked by more than one:â€"Is there any reason why the children of the North should not be granted this privilege every summer in every centre., Bponsored by the United Church, the classes were strictly undenominational and everyone was invitedâ€"Mr,. Joe Clark, student minister, was the prinâ€" cipal, ably assisted by Miss Eva Clark and Miss Thelma Holmes, school teachâ€" ers from Southern Ontario. Myrs, Hammerstrom is also to be thanked for her kindly assistance, This is the second successive year that the school has welcomed the happy host of local youngsters and campers and its popularity is increasâ€" ing yearly. Unlike regular school proâ€" cedure, sessions are held in the mornâ€" ing only and the subjects taught give everybody present a good time. Singâ€" ing storyâ€"telling, Bible study and games were enjoyed, but the favourite of the kiddies was the handicraft perâ€" jiod. The various age groups difftcr of course in the extent of their work but every proud child had at least one exhibit to present at home. The evening of the last day is "Parent‘s Night‘ and it is this exhibiâ€" tion that makes the vacation school so popular with the adults,. Besides the show of woodwork, needlework, etc., a programme arranged and all groups participated. Refreshments were served and all went away proud of their accomplished kiddies, Very Successful Summer School at Golden City several changes were made from the system used last year. One of the most prominent was the inclusion of older pupils up to the age of sixteen. Previously the school had catered to Hundred and Sixteen Atâ€" tend School Event at Porâ€" cupine.

Said John‘s brother, Barney Wilson: "I think you are greedy having two, but this certainly calls for a little celeâ€" bration." They celebrated. Then they went homeâ€"and Barncy found his wife had given birth to twins â€"£s boy and a girl. While the two brothers were out on a second celebration, Mrs. Ivy Denniâ€" son, a married sister, who is look‘ing after Mrs. Barney Wilson, told reâ€" porters: "Ever since I can remember, Barrm:ey and John hbave done things together â€"but who would have thought of this! "John and Barney got married within a brief time of one another. Before the twins arrived, both had already three children. "Now John has four girls and one boy, and Barney has four boys ana one girl. "Barney rushed over to John‘s place and they went out to celebrate. "In the meantime. things happenea rather quickly, and by the time Barney got home his wife, Eileen, had given bkirth to twins also." "As soon as John‘s twins were born, he sent a telegram to Barney, whose wife was herself expecting a baby. wee folk from four to twelve. This season is was decided to form a helpâ€" ers‘ group who would be in charge oi all activties They were to aid the teachers and instruct the smaller ones in games, etc. Their own activities were decided on a strictly democratic basis and it was decided that this group should not be dissolved with the rest of the school. This will necessitate the changing of their name as they were hitherto known as the Students! Council. She added: "It has been an amazing coincidence. But my brothers have alâ€" ways been so alike that it doesn‘t seein quite so surprising to us." Aniong the outstanding advantages of the engine are its exceptional manâ€" ceuvrability, by which full power astern can be developed in 10 seconds from full ahead; no increase in cost over a firstâ€"class reciprocating engine of equal power; and a considerable saving of space, thus increasing the earning powâ€" er of the ship. (From Robert Williamson, London, England) Ssome exceptional advances in aesign and performance are shown in a new type of marine engine evolved by Briâ€" tish engineers. It is a doubleâ€"reduction geared turbine unit, and is capable of developing 2,500 sh.p. with a total weight of 30 tons. The designer, Mr. James Macloed, of Glasgow, has been working on the engine for 20 years, and during trials carried out at Birâ€" minmzham recently, when steam was supplied at 250 lbs. per sq. in. and 700 degrees Fahr. the consumption of steam was 9 lbs. sh.p. per hour. During the trial the speed of the h.p. and i.p. turbines was 10,000 r.opm. and the 1 p. 8.450 r.p.m. Brampton Conservatorâ€"An motorist gave as his reason for overâ€" running a stop sign that the sign was so obscured by weeds that he couldn‘t see it. There are no doubt many places where similar complaint could be ma.t>. In these days of 50 and 60 and, someâ€" times, 70 miles an hour driving, every John‘s twins were six pounds and seven pounds respectively, and Barncy‘s 3% and 4% pounds. The engine consists of six turbines on three pinion shafts, all of which are mounted on top of the gear casing. One h.p. turbine exhausts into an interâ€" mediate pressure turbine mounted on the same pinion shaft. The i.p. turbine then exhausts into two Ip. turbines placed on the port and starboard sides of the unit, each with a separate pinicn. Fach of these two motors has a highâ€" pressure turbine at the forward end for astern working. This design perâ€" mits of 60 per cent. of the ahead power being developed when running aSstern. possible safety precaution should taken by the province.

After such writeâ€"offs, balance carried to surplus was $189,424, which, with $3,296 netted from sale of stocks and bonds, brought it up to $1,085,818, from which was deducted $350,840 for dividends, leaving balance of $744.978.

Large percentazgze of ore being milled at present is especialâ€" ly hard, causing decrease in mill tonâ€" nages, but this should be back to norâ€" mal within a few months. Operating costs were $4.44 a ton, against $4.12 and total costs were $5.24 against $4.80. Mr. Wailter Little, M.P., for Temilsâ€" kaming, is quoted at Kirkland Lake as saying that the recent bangquet tenderâ€" ed Premier King was a very lively afâ€" fair and not by any means the sad and solemn affair suggested by The Ottawa Journal and The Globe and Mail. Mr Little defended the premier in his failure to announce an election date, In view of the uncertainty in Europe at the present time, Mr. Little thought it would be risky to dissolve parliament. He thought it undesirable that vhe country should face an election, with parliament dissolved, and danger of way breaking out. In case of hostilities, Mr. Little considered it very important that Canada snould have a government in office at the time. Despite all this, however, Mr. Little still holds to his opinion expressed earlier this year, that there will be a Dominion election this fall. This view, it may be noted, is shared by Mr. Jos. A. Bradette, membjer for the riding of Cochrane. Ore reserves were substantially inâ€" creased in the period, rising $1,308.872 in value, or 32 per cent, 134,601 in tonâ€" naze, or 27 per cent, and 33 cents per ton in value. On June 30, figures were 628,741 tons, grading $853 and having gross value of $5,364,665. No. 5 shaft has reached 2,312 feet and No. 6 winze 1,892 feet, objectives being 2,3090 and 2,040 feet, respectively. Crossâ€" cutting from No. 5 shaft on 1,250 1,400 and 1,550â€"foot levels has been comâ€" pleted to known footwall vein strucâ€" tures and drifting on various veins has developed ore up to mien average.

A Timmins store not only complied with the byâ€"law but went a step further,. It bundled its wasts paper in such a manner as to gladden the heart of the most critical colleclor of rubbish, In the above photograph are shown the packages of waste paper, neally done up in boxes, wrapped with colâ€" oured and patterned Christmas paper and tied with coloured cord. Atâ€" tached is an apron for the collector to wear in order to avoid dust and also a whisk which he may use if particles of grime should happen to adhere to his overalls. Fall has always been the favourite time for agricultural peoples, with the weddings coming after the harvest, and this is still true of the world at large. Religious customs have fixed the wedâ€" ding months for some countries or peoples, and June has not been the favoured month in such cases. But a mechanized civilization has been able to pick its leisure time, withâ€" out regard for crops. In such areas, the June wedding has been growing, apparently because this month is at the beginning of the vacation season, the time when the largest number of persons have leisure. Vacation rates, ease of travel, all combine to favour June brides. The June weather has something to do with it. Statistical studies show this June weather influâ€" ence, despite the fact that the biological reasons associated with weather do not altogether favour June. A report recently published by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company shows of sixteen nations: Juneâ€"Canâ€" ada, United States, Finland; Julyâ€"Scotâ€" land; Augustâ€"None; Septemberâ€"Belâ€" June as Marriage Month Only North American Idea Try The Advance Want Advertisements gium; Octoberâ€"Germany, Italy; Noâ€" vemberâ€"Hungary; Decemberâ€"Australâ€" lia, Norway, New Zealand, Finland; Januaryâ€"None; FAbruaryâ€"Argentina, Bulgaria, â€"Rumania; Marchâ€"None; Aprilâ€"France; Mayâ€"Switzerland. The Town Council recently passed a byâ€"law making it illegal to leave rubâ€" bish for garbage collectors in cans other than standard containers with lids,.
