WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20th. 1920 From the careles words of some thoughtless people a few citizens and some outsiders may have wrongfully gathered theidea that there are a num ber of cases of smallpox in Timmins. As a matter of fact there are only two at present, and the total number has been no more than four, two of the patients being now fully recoverâ€" ed. The two suffering from the disâ€" ease at present are safely isolated and well" on the way to recovery. The Medtcal Health Officer and his assistâ€" ants took the fullest precautions for the public safety as soon as the cases were reported, and all known to have been even indirectly jexposed were very promptly quarantined urtil all danger was past. There is reason for believing that at least one of the cases was contracted outside Timmins. In fection from one youngster not known a%t the time to have the disease is thought to account for another of the éases,Zanother child with the discase. The (Zsease is of a very mild type, and the precautions taken make it worse than needles for any talk of puâ€" blic alarm. Timmins has been so gen erally free from contagious diseases that some thoughtless people become needlessly excited over a case or two. Othr towns like this would think them selves lucky to be as free from such diseases as Timmins. HEALTH OF THE TOWN OF TIMMINS IN GOOD SHAPE. KOW TIMMINS IS THE CREAM OF THE NORTH. Last week two ladies of theâ€"town made a special trip to Golden City for the single purpose of securing some of the wonderful cream for which the eows of the farms of old Poreupine are fast becoming famous. That Goldâ€" en City cream is rich cream, real cream, In this land where canned milk is so often a necessity, it is we‘ll worth travelling sixteen miles to seâ€" eure some of the wonderful cream from the Golden City cows. The ladies from Timmins were naturally delighted when they reached town again with a generous supply of the rich, real cream. But a lamentable accident occurred. Just as the lady earrying the precious cream was stepâ€" ping from the auto the vessel holding the tempting cream slipped to the ground and all the rich cream poured out upon the sand of the Hills The ladies need not be ‘blamed for viewâ€" ing this disaster with dismay. One lady, ouly humorously sympathetic, suggested> the addition of a little sugar to the sand (instead of a little sand to the sugar, as used to be the eustom) and. the making thus of a palatable new dish of part of the Porâ€" eupine with cream. This was disâ€" missed as impractical, and more of the good creamy cream dater secured instead. yAnd the taste of the rich eream from Golden City has taken away the bitterness of the cream that was spilled. . But the lost treasure nevertheless makes Timmins beyond peradvanture the ‘‘cream of the Norts Land.‘"‘ , NIGHT CLASSES STARTED TUESDAY EVENING THIS WEEK.
