When the Hunton Mine in Kirkland Lake cut the ore body indicated by diamond drilling with the crossâ€"cut at the 400â€"ft. devel, they found the ore body to be larger than indicated by the diamond drill, hut the ore was not of as high a grade, although it is good milling ore. Mr.: Dan Chisholm has been instructed to put two diaâ€" mond drills in operation immediately in order to get more data as to the length and width of this ore body at depth after which they will sink a winze on the 400â€"ft. level, following the ore body. This discovery and exâ€" tensive exploration campaign is of extreme importance to the Kirkland Lake Camp, as it oceurs in what is known as the South break. Although <~.\'tensi\'e(fie\'elnpnwnts have â€" taken place to date along this belt, the reâ€" strlts have not been as satisfactory as on the Nprth or Main break. Should the Hunton Mine prove a large tonâ€" nage of commercial ore with this work it will unnudoubtedly start a renewal of operations on this belt which may have very farâ€"reaching resNits. Qurte a novel idea has been introâ€" duced in the Camp this week, when Dan MceLellan finished the decorating on his building, occeupied by Pilsâ€" worth Drug Store. Instead of using paint as is the usual case, Mr. Meâ€" Lellan had the surface covered with Boiled Oil after which it was given a coat of varnish, and the results are very satisfactory and should prove even better than paint.. The trimâ€" mings are in white and blend well with the other finish making this building one of the most attractive in the cown. Mrs. L. 8.

The Ladies‘ Auxiliary who were in charge of affairs took great pains in decoratâ€" ing the place for the occeasion. Wheat, Barley, Oats, Pumpkins, Turnips and, in fact, everything in the line of vegeâ€" tables and greens, were on exhihition in every corner of the church. A deâ€" lightful supper was served, which inâ€" cluded Meats, Salads, Pastry and many other choice delicacies too numâ€" erous to â€" mention. Mrs. Dr.â€" Barry rendered the most beautiful solo ** One Fleeting Hour‘‘ with Violin Obligato played by Gene Colombo. Mrs. E. Reynolds sang a delightful solo and the readings which were given by James Alexander were greatly appreâ€" ciated. The Rev. Archdeacon Woodâ€" all gave a splendid talk and dealt with the question of building a new Anglican church in South Poreupine, which had the support of all. He also praised the good work done by the Ladies‘ Auxiltary at all times and felt satisfied that anything undertakâ€" en by that body, would be carried out to the letter, Mr. Max Smith was also remembered as being one who could always be relied upon to do his utâ€" most whenever necessary. It is to be ‘hoped that South Poreupine will be honored within a brief space of ‘ime with a new Anglican church. A large number of parishioners attendâ€" ed the gala festivities. There has been quite a demand for the services of the â€"Comhbined Orchestra,â€"Gene Colombo â€"and Ted Emery. They ‘have been engaged to play for a dance in Eik Lake on Thursday and another dance in Engleâ€" hart on Friday of this week. The, samples from the Séiver disâ€" covery made on the United Explorers‘ properties in the Miller Lake section of Gowganda .and reported in last week‘s issue of the Advance are now on exhibition at the company‘s office in South Poreupine. A mistake in the width of the vein was made in last week‘s report. â€" The vein is from four to five feet wide, instead of two as formerly reported and is the biggest break so far discovered in Gowganda and rivals the _ wonderful _ Woods break, in South Lorrain from which such fabulous wealth has been obtainâ€" ed by the Keeley Mines, the Mining Corporation and others.

Dome thy THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Capt. W. R. Maxwell, Director of the Ontario Government Air Force, made a world record in a_ recent flight to and from Moose Factory l During both trips he was in fnu('h! swith the outside world by means of radioâ€"this being the first time any plane hadâ€"such communication north !ul the Transcontinental. l\"[essag'es' were sent every ten minutes from thcl airship to Remi Lake and from there: relayed to Toronto, New York and Neenah, Wisconsin. Capt. Maxwell and his partner brought out Dr. Margaret Cockburn, sent north in the Spring by the Provincial Board Ofl Health to work among the Indians; Arthur Hays Sulzbeger, viece presiâ€" dent of the New York Times, J;: C. Kimberly, of the Kimberlyâ€"Clark Paper Mills, Neenah, Wisconsin and Messrs Jones and Henderson, general manager and chief engineer respecâ€" tively of the same industry. On a second trip Mr. factor for Revillion Freres at Moose Factory, and Mrs. Ward were brought out. They are on their way to England. The â€" aviators report having enâ€" countered heavy weather on the trips. The past season has bheen the coldest in twenty years with only about three weeks‘ navigation in Hudson‘s Bay. There is much ice in Hudson‘s Bay, ons o mm omm mem mm «umm mm m in t mm mmmen on All through the North Land the need for roads for the settlers is indeed a pressing one. In the disâ€" trict around Smooth Rock Falls the need appears to be even greater than elsewhere, and that is indeed saying much. _ At the meeting of the Assocâ€" iated Boards of Trade the needs of the Smooth Rock Falls district were eloquently _ presented. ‘‘Settlers striving their best for years,"‘ said Rev. Fr. Renaud, ‘‘and not a road of any kind.‘"‘ ‘"‘Give us roads and roads and roads,‘‘ said Rev. .Fr. Lajoie, **+and the settlers will do the rest for themsélves." The country is,. well settled and yet without roads of any kind. The handicap is appaâ€" rent. It must be admitted that even the unsatisfactory roads in some other places in the North are a deâ€" gree or so better than no roads at all. The Associated Boards of Tragke is striving to secure some needed roads for the settled districts from Cochrane to Hearst, and the North Land as a whole should let it be understood that the Government will have the support and approval of all in anything that may be done to gcive the settler a fair deal. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10th WILL BE THANKSGIVING DAY IMPERATIVE NEED FOR ROADS NEAR SMOOTH ROCK. According to a notice in the Canada Gazette, Monday, November 10th, is proclaimed â€" Thanksgiving Day for Canada this vear. AIRSHIP IN FAR NORTH KEPT IN TOUCH BY RADIO RADIO GREAT BOON TO SETTLERS IN PAR NORTH In a recent issue The Pas Herald quotes Rev, W. Gladstone Walton, a missionary from Unga¢a, on the eastâ€" ern shores of Hudson Bay, as emâ€" phasizing the great boon the radio has become to settlers in the North Land. Along the shore, says Mr. Walton, many stations have been erected, and although mails are deâ€" livered in Ungava only from two to four times a year. the settlers and traders are getting world news by radio as early as the readers of city newspapers. Mr. Walton cites the ease of a trader at Rupert House, a newspapetr case of a Hudson J The Ad cWd 2A ( on all to undergo w «she was gettin nIilte wh States hosp was anxiou 9\ :lll(‘l WA s *X )8 TL U j= E£*= wit e In 1 € @1 i] BIG POLIGE GOURT LAST WEEKâ€"BROUGHT IN MONFY Last Thursday was a particularly busy day for Magistrate Atkinson at police court here. There were around a half a hundred cases,. Of these, fourteen charges were against Chinamen for Gambling and one against the Oriental who kept the gaming place. The latter was fined $50.00 and costs and the other fourâ€" teen paid $10.00 and costs each for being in the game when the police made the raid. The nineteen others who had been apparently only specâ€" tators at the big Chinese game raided were not proceeded against. Cases Ranged From Gambling to B.O.T.A. Several Remands to This Week. Four ordinary unpolished drunks paid $10.00 and costs per each. (G, Fung was asked to contribute $200,.00 and costs for illegally having liquor. He contributed. The liquor was found when the police raided the place where Fung is employed. E. Canapini, Balsam street, paid $500.00 and: costs on the charge of keeping for sale. Also he lost some liquor taken at his place by the polâ€" ice on a recent visit. It is a hard worldâ€"this North Land. J. Coston was© assessed $100.00 and costs for drinking in a public place. The same fine and costs was registered against T. Petracei, for illegal purchase of the joyous fluid. Another $100.00 touch with costs as trimmings was the against (¢. Pettosky for drinking in a public place. Nine different folks paid $4.00 and costs each for allowing cows to run at large. Chief Greer and his staff have been running a correspondence course for abofut a year now to teach people that cows can not roam the streets,. Some are slow, to learn, but continuing the course is sure to be effective eventuallyv. For obstructing traffiece with a car one citizen was fined $5.00 and costs. A couple of assault charges were withdrawn. The three men charged with the theft of gold ore were again remandâ€" ed for a week. Sergt. Pascoe, of the Dominion Police had four Chinamen before the court on charges of having nareotic drugs. The cases were remanded to this week.

Simmonds, of New Lisâ€" keard, conducted the services at the Timmins Baptist Church on Sunday, delivering helpful and inspiring adâ€" dresses at both services. After an extended automobile tour|in town for the past two through ©Ontario and the Northern|turned home on Sunday.

There were two very outstanding facts in connection with the meeting. First, fnot one of the many resoluâ€" tions, all of them very important to Northern Ontario, most of them of provincial and even national hbenefit, was passed without objection or criticâ€" ism. In other words, the discussion was very free and candid so that the resolutions as finally passed expressed the considered opinion of the Boards of Trade from North Bay to Cochâ€" rane and from Cochrane to Hearst. rane and Trom Cochrane to ILlearst. There were close to seventy deleâ€" gates from the different towns and the speeches in connection with the different resolutions presented were representative of all the Boards. The second outstanding feature was the inspiring messages given to the people of the North ‘by Mr. E. W. Beatty, President of the C.P.R., and Sir Robert Falconer, President of the University of Toronto. At this parâ€" ticular time when there is, on foot propaganda for the breaking away of Canada from the British Empire to join with the Republic to the South, these speeches were brightly blazing torches to show the way from darkâ€" ness into light. It is fairly safe to say that as the words of Beatty and Falâ€" coner are read in other towns and cities of the Dominion they will have a great effect in putting out the slow burning fire of annexation. This fire is at present confined fairly well to one district and if the people of that district are permitted to read the reâ€" marks of Mr. Beatty and (Mr. Falâ€" coner the fire will soon be extinguishâ€" ed. The two messages while different were the same. ‘Both speakers were higchly optimistic, but it was not the optimism ~of #sullibility, it was the optimism of reason. Mr. iBeatty naturally dealt mainly with _ transportationproblems, _ Sir Robert Falconer with the courage of the Canadian people as shown in the past and in _ the present. (Both speeches carried the one note, if Canâ€" ada be true to herself, the destiny which lies ahead of her is so great that only eyes, shielded, can gaze toâ€" wards it. But this destiny will not come to Canada simply by sitting down and waiting. Every man must be up and doing. There must be conâ€" fidence in the country, confidence in the people and the courage that goes with modest confidence, that courage which looks difficulties square in the face and thereby makes difficulties the stepping stones to higher things. The two eminent speakers of Wedâ€" nesday night stirred the people of Temiskaming and Cochrane to greatâ€" er efforts for the development of the vast natural resources of this daistrict. 5\}\\\%.\\.\‘sSS\.\S\S\\\'SS\SS‘SSS\S\S\%\\\\Sfl\'\%fi%%’i%\\" # * t*%%4A*%****% B e 95 95 05 90515 105 90505 105 10505 05 05 00 205 050005 05 105 005 05 195 151505 05 1505 105 90 05 15105 0505 05 05 24 43 Dr. A.

With _ them _ Canada need not fear to look openâ€"eyed to the future, confident in ‘her ability to make good, and with the courage to face both difficulty and danger in working out her destinv. The Haileyburian last week says : ‘‘Mrs, D. Deacon, of South Poreuâ€" pine, who has been visiting friends in town for the past two week, reâ€" turned home on Sunday. Tonight will be Ladies‘ Night at th A.8S.D. Club and not next Wednesdas According to the itinerary pubâ€" lished, Premier William Lyon Macâ€" kenzie King, etce., will speak at Cochâ€" rane on the evening of November 6th, The people of the Falls had exâ€" pected a message, even a great mesâ€" sage, but they could. hardly have realized the extremely simple but treâ€" mendously powerful message in the utterances of the two guests of the evening. lt is probably true that the danger point has been passed, bul it is still necessary for every redâ€" blooded son of Canada to fight, chin held high, to put his native land on the throne of a nation. Canada is a nation but that is not her proudest boast. Her proudest boast is tha» sheis a nation in a federation of naâ€" tions, the Ilike of which has not been known in the history of man. The nations of the federation are bound together by chains of such flimsy maâ€" terial that their own weight might break them, but of such strong maâ€" terial that even the strain and stress of a world war only ‘boyund them stronger. That is the message which the people of the North Country were privileged to hear from the lips of Mr. Beatty and Sir Robert Falconer. ATTRACTIVE HARVEST FPFESTIVAL AT ST.
