The Fireâ€"brigade had a very imâ€" portant meeting last week regardi the Annual Tournament and Flefi Day, at South Poreupine, on July 1st. Mrs. Childs was removed to a Toâ€" ronto Hospital last week to undergo a serionus operation. Dan MeCullough was a visitor in Premier King wants a separate flag for Canada. Why not a flag for Ontario? â€" Why not one for the North Land, on the same line of reasoning? And if one for the North, why not one for Timmins, the greatest North Land ecity? And if one for Timmins, why not one each for Mattagami, Moneta and the Bartleman Townsite? Dan MeCullough .was a visitor in town last week. The 1st of July is getting near and residents are getting anxious about the big day and oelel)ratmn, which will take plaoe at â€" South Poreupine. Those in charge of affairs are workâ€" ing overtime on the plans and arâ€" ranging a mokt superb programme, which we hope to be able to publish The Advance, while giving the Nugâ€" get credit for the notice regarding the frogâ€"pond, wishes to correct the stateâ€" ment of the Nugget regarding the hotel being destroyed by fire several years ago. In fact the hotel was never destroyed by fire, but was torn down and the lumber sold. For the past few years, all that.remained of the large hotel was the kitchen, which was tranformed into a residenec, with the iceâ€"house in the rear taking the place of a wood shed. â€" Early this Spring these buldings were sold toâ€" gether with all the remaining lumber on the premises to Joe Turcotte, who has moved them to his own plot and again transformed them into very atâ€" tractive cottages. The miniature lake was due to the fact that the sewer, which should have taken care of the drainage of this property, beâ€" came blocked and it was necessary for the fireâ€"engine to pump out the waten so as to enable men to get at the sewer and make the necessary repairs. The Township also looked after the drainâ€" age of the lot opposite the Majestic Theatre. _ The water at this corner, was about five feet deep, and besides being a frog pond, it was very danâ€" gerous for children who were always playing thereabouts. During the canstruction of the government highâ€" way the drain from this lot was either taken out or plugged up. At any rate a new ditch was dug across the street and a sixâ€"inch iron pipe laid to take care of the drainage. The Council deserves credit for the quick action, in remedying the conditions at the above mentioned places. CTIVITY IN« SOUTHERN , PART OF PORCUPINE CAMP A correspondent sends The Advance the following note this week:â€"Reed and Ryan have entered into a .conâ€" tract with some Buffalo people to drill the Clueasâ€"Boker claims, which adjoin the March Gold property. They are hoping to pick up the exâ€" tension of the Ankerite and March ore hodv.. Geological conditions are ore nody favorable in the next issue of The Advance. The Hydroplane trips have been the general comment around town and many will go up to see the Poreupine Camp and the surrounding eountry, the fare being $5.00 per head. Reâ€" servations for these trips should be made in advance. If you want to get up in the air and be above the other fellow, see Max Smith for furâ€" ther information. The firemen were out on the grounds on Friday last, marking a course for a quarter mile race track.‘ Bicycele races will unâ€" doubtedly be among the leading feaâ€" tures on the big day and should draw many interested contestants. .

Last week under the heading. ‘*Frogs Spoil the Sleep of South Porâ€" cupine Citizens, so Pond is gone,"‘ The North Bay Nugget printed the following : â€" ‘*South Porcupine, June 12â€"(Specâ€" ial).â€"Several years ago, fire desâ€" troyved the hotel on one of the chief corners of the business downâ€"town section of South Poreupine. The ruins have long since been removed, but there still remained a cavity which has never been filled. _ The recent rains converted it into a miniature lake. As there was no outlet the place became a paradise for the deepâ€" throated harbingers of Spring.. So deep were the throatings and so loud and late did the .orchestral chorus persist that a number of the residents murmured. _ A few sleepless nights passed and complaints were made to the municipal Council. The Fireâ€"enâ€" gine was ordered to the spot and pumping out began. frog pond is no more."‘ Let All Work for Cleaner and Better Football is the Suggestion of Critic. A gentleman with a very keen and sincere interest in football has forâ€" waridded the following letter to The Advance for publication :â€" Regarding the King Cup match, Timmins vs Dome. A tale of Woe and Penalties. (By Drill). Dome were the vistors to Timmins on Wednesday night last to play off their match in the King Cup series, and they were defeated by 4 To try to describe the match in deâ€" tail would be useless, the game from beginning to end being in favour of Timmins who simply to_yed with their opponents. The Dome, I was informâ€" ed, played some reserves, but, even with a full team, I doubt whether they would have held the Timmins boys on the night‘s play. HELPFUL CRIGITISM OF REGENT KING GUP MATGBA No doubt the first goal was from a penalty, and the first goal in a cup match counts for a lot, but they seem ed a team with no ambition, and withâ€" out any plan of campaign. There were no less than three penâ€" alty kicks during the match. â€" Allowâ€" ing for the rl\'alty between the clubs, three penalty kicks is a severe punish ment against a team.. The first and third were good decisions. In regard to the second, I thought that when Cooper was going through he was fairly tackled, but Referee~ Lamble thought otherwise. In an interview with Referee Lamble after the mateh, I asked him about the second penalty, as he was amongst the play, and after his e\plandtmn [ was satisfied that a penalty kick was the correct decision. The B. team put up much better football and should have shared the spoils. â€" Schumacher got their first goal easy; the ball went out of . play and was kicked in to centre and the boys waited for the referee to blow his whistle, while Robson kicked the leather in. The boys went right down and scored a lucky goal. Near half time Schumacher got their second goal. The B. team played much better football in regards to their passing, but they still buneh together too much. Brown was back in goal again and made some wonderfual saves. The teams were:â€" Town B.â€"Brown goal; Berrvy and Maxwell, backs; Hamilton, Hackett and Roberts, halfâ€"backs; Dunsmore, McTagegart, MceKay, MeHugh and Gilâ€" The penalties called forth a lot of comments, both from players and the spectators, and the spirit of sport was not shown by some of the Dome players. In fact, the Dome goalie left his goal at the taking of the third penalty, allowing Cooper to tap the ball into a vacant goal. This, to my mind, was an insult, not only to the Timmins team, but to lus own, and to the spectators. Temiskaming â€" â€"~Firemen ment at South Porcupine promises to be the bigges vet. « Sathrang seored from the first penâ€" alty and put the ball over the bar at the second. Cooper, as above menâ€" tioned, ‘scored the third. The other goals were scored by Sathrang and Petterson, Petterson‘s gaol being the best of the match. This is a fine foot baller and schemer. He plays braimny football and is no doubt a great help to Sathrang in obtaining his goals. I should like to see more like him. The Timmins team right through are a very sound combination. _ Dougall was the only forward on the Dome team to show glimpses of football, but he had no support. No doubt the Dome boys had an off day, and by their record I know they can play better football than the exhibition they‘ gave on this occeasion. The Town B. dropped two more points last night to Schumacher in the P.D.F.L., the score being 2â€"1. â€"In the second half the B. team had very much of the play and during a hard tussle Schumacher handled the ball and the referee awarded a penalâ€" ty, but changed his mind to a corner kick. and Martin, bac and â€" MeDonald, Hitt, Robson, C: wards. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO After the match the comments were many and varied, and most of the spectators were sadly disappointed with the game considering that the was 50c. I do not blame them. But I certainly think it is time some of these individuals were being looked after. Filthy language was hurled at the referee, and this despite the presâ€" ence of ladies on the ground. I underâ€" stand that some of these persons are under observation, and when they turn up at the ground they will be refused admission unless they mend their ways. I like to hear the supâ€" porters encouraging their respective teams, as a little encouragement goes a long way and calls for good humour and sport. But let it be given in a proper manner, and I daresay that we will have cleaner and better football. SCHUMACHER WINS FROM THE TOWN B.
