TEACHING ALIENS NOT TO BLOCK SIDEWALES On Saturday Chief Clark ar: three aliens for blocking the sid and sceuffling on street to the di fort of the orderly publhe. On day evening the Chief picked u other foreigner for blocking the walk and failing to move on spoken to. Before Jusilc( Peace Montgomery this week of them were given a less needed in the matter of the of the use of the streets and : Haileybury‘s tax rate for this yeAt will be 45 mills, despite the fact that: the Council is making every effort toâ€" wards economy. Indeed, there is some talk of closing the Haileyhury High School to save expense to the Town. Such action, however, would be very regrettable. Haileybury has the only High School in the North Land north ‘of North Bay, and the school has done exeellent work and accomplished much good. Rather than permit ‘the closing of this educa tional institution from any cause. the Government should find a method to so assist in the financing thut u~ closâ€" ing would be necessary. n * new land like this conditions and cireumâ€" stances are altogether different to what they are in other portions of older Oatario and the Government should not hesitate to employ new means and methods of helping the new land to get a good start and hold it in the matter of educational facilities. Consizable Rayeroft, assisted by Constable C. Melunis and the Timmins Police, raided a Schumacher place on Sunday morning early, and as a re sult Mike Susick, an Austrian, was fined $50 and costs Monday evening by Justice of the Peace Montgomery.
