Are you putting a fence around the pond after the child is drowned? [ am taking it upon myself as one of the pioneers in this town, to eall attention to the need for better health precautions. T came to South Porâ€" cupine when the Hollinger was cutâ€" ting in a road from Kelso to start the first development work on the property., * ‘We look back over this fifteen years and we see the marvelâ€" lous growth of the town of Timmins, and we have to give all the Mayor and Council during this time for doing their utmost to make Timâ€" mins one of the cleanest towns on the American continent.

Bad water, outâ€" side closets, and similar things, may cause serious _ disease. Something should be done to protect the people in general. Many have taken advantâ€" age of the sanitary services, but all should be brought under the proper regulation in this regaird. The rent toâ€"day in Timmins is so great that a house or shack near me parid for itself in one year. Because the jprofit is so great, more such shacks are being built. There is pracâ€" tically no expense to them, because modern improvements are not instalâ€" led. We should give all respect to the Hollinger houses. They may not be grand to look at from the outside, but, they are most sanitary _ and healthy and wettequipped, with goosd lawns in front of them. It would pay for all to walk over and see these houses for themselves, and remember that the rent is most moderate. l make an appeal to everyone in Timmins to make it an issue to have a Sanitary byâ€"law passed and enâ€" forced.
