At a meetrng at Iroquois Falls last Thursday, presided over by iMayor Vanier, and made up of representâ€" atives of the Labour Unions and sport ing organizations, etc., it was decided to have a Labour Day Celebration at the Falls this year. ‘The meeting was in favour of coâ€"operation among the towns of the North for holiday events and the idea was advanced that a celebhration for the whole North in factorily. Reference was also made to the fact that Timmins had already had two Big Days this year, and sugâ€" gesting that this town was selfish in wanting Labour Day at well. ‘The two days referred to were the 24th of May and July Ist. (at Schumacher). Timmins wants to coâ€"operate as far as possible with the other towns of the North, but the big difficualty is that this Camp has grown to such a size sevenâ€" or â€" Falls, abo here unpt apply to ind Cochrane, Troquois Falls and Timmins in turn, would bring the people toâ€" gether and be a good thing for the whole country. This, of course, is perâ€" fectly true, but there are difficulties in the way of working Ahe plan satisâ€" factorily.

This meeting took place on Wednesday eveningâ€"frast ana ine Football Executive explained that if the Timmins Labour ‘Men were putâ€" ting on a Labour Day Celebration the Pootball Club would withdraw.

This understanding, however, ‘had not work ed out to the benefit of Timmins, as the Falls on more than one cccasion had failed to return the compliment. In cgase. t neighborit Lrogquois d As for bringing in Labour speakers and making a regular Labour Day event for the whole district, the Footâ€" ball Club considered this entirely out of its province as a nonâ€"partisan sports organization. All visitors from Cochrane and the Falls will be welâ€" comed here on Lahour Day, and they will all be sure of a very pleasant day of sports and pleasure. Nince the meeting, Iroquois Falls ‘had decided to go on with its Labour Day celebraâ€" tion, but this will not interfere with the Timmins Football (Jub event, as the latter is a ‘Sports Day for. the town and district and for the benelit of the ten thousand people who in any case will be unable for one reaâ€" son or another to leave here!

The Timmins Baseball Team and the local District Football team both will play important matches here that day. A varied programme of unusually interesting events is ‘beâ€" ing arranged, and the successes of the Football Club in past years in putting on the best of sports days is assurance enough that the event here on Sepâ€" tember 4th. will be a pleasing one, and one that should not be missed by and one that should anvone in the distric POWER PROPOSED NOW FOR WEST SHINING TREE AREA There is a consideration Carrled electru tree fie MOTE CLOr ~CHi€ roliday event Executin A ut( Single Copies 5 Cents sion * pointe amp ha power 1or T would cted simply because available holiday not local oreamizations,. p had grown to such a s1ze people wanted something on piumblic holidays there were. of davys or celebrations at ut wIill mean towt it present ‘ JJ11@4l 1sS ) LTANS o West Shiningtree fror nz erected at present hb wan Power C€o. at India, e Montreal River.
