THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO New â€"Liskeard Firemen won first prize at South Poreupine for the best appearing brigade in the Temiskaâ€" ming Firemen‘s Tournament. Speakâ€" ing of the matter The New Liskeard Speaker last week said :â€" sw MARRIAGE OF MR. NORMAN ROY McEACHREN ON JUNE 18. Friendg in Timmins will be interâ€" ested in the following clipping relaâ€" tive to the marriage of Mr. Norman Roy MceEachren, son of Mr. and Mrs. Nortmnan MeEachren, â€" formerly* Tesiâ€" dents of Mattagami Heights and Timmins. Innumerable friends here will extend heartiest good wishes. The following is the report of the wedâ€" ding as given in a Western Ontario daily newspaper :â€" *A very pretty wedding took place on June 18th, at the home of the bride‘s mother, Sixth Line Mooretown, when Jessie May, daughter of Mrs. A. B. Garbutt and the late Harvey Garbutt, became the bride of Mr. Norman Roy MeEachren, son of Mr. and â€" Mrs. Norman â€" MceEachren, Detroit, Michigan.,, The ceremony which took place at high noon, was solemnized by Rev. Jas. Finlay of Courtright, in the presence of near relatives and a few close friends. bride looked very lovely in a gown of honey dew crepe de chene with overdress. of chiffon heavily beaded with seed pearls, and wore a wreath of orange blossoms. She earâ€" ried a shower bouquet of Sweetheart roses and liliesâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"valley and wore the groom‘s gift a pretty wrist watch,. Miss Olive Garbutt attended her sister and Mr. Harry MeBachren was best man. The groom‘s gift to the bridesmaid was an ivory set, and to the best man, gold cuff links. * After the ceremony a dainty lunchâ€" eon was served and the bridal party left for Detroit, where a reception was held in the evening by Mr. and Mrs. Norman McBEachren. The gifts were numerous and very beautiful. The happy couple carry with them the best wishes of a host of friends both at Mooretown and Chatham, where the bride formerly resided. Among the guests were Mr. and Mrs. Norman McEachren and Mr. Harry McEachren of Detroit; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Holland and family, Mr. and Mrs.‘Ripley and Miss Dougherty of Chatham.‘* Distributors forâ€"Timmins BOARD OF TRADE ASKING ABOUT SALE OF LIMITS Sale of Limits on Mattagami Waterâ€" shed of Particular Interest to Timming. At the meeting of the ‘Timmins| Board of Trade on Tuesday evening last week there was a small attenâ€"| dance, hardly enough gathering to make a good quorum. The President, Mr. F. M. Wallingford, occupied the chair, and the meeting, which was| held in King‘s Hall took up two questions of special importance to the Town. One of these was the proposed sale of timber limits on the watershed of the Mattagami â€" River, Advertiseâ€" ments calling for tenders doâ€" not deâ€" fine even roughly the number or locaâ€" tion of the limits offered for sale. ©Certain areas situated in the folâ€" lowing regions,‘‘ says the introducâ€" tory paragraph of the advertisement. Among the ‘following regions‘‘ the advertisement specifies ‘‘the waterâ€" shed of the Mattagami River.‘‘ The Board of Trade felt that the matter the sale of limits on the Mattagami watershed was of very special interâ€" est and importance to Timmins. There are five important mills at Timmins and these will be able to use all the limits south of Sandy Falls. If outside firms especially â€" large American interests buy limits south of Sandy Falls it will mean conâ€" siderable loss to Timmins, the wood being diverted from the natural run to Timmins where it would mean emâ€" ployment to many here as well as trade and benefit to the town generâ€" ally. On the other hand the Governâ€" ment can not get as good a price from the sale of these limits as . it would get from the Timmins mills, The mills here, on account of their natural location, could afford a betâ€" ter bid on these limits than outside firms. It was pointed out that none of the mills here have limits that will supply their needs for more than four or five years. One member of the Board of Trade suggested that it might be good business from the practical economic standpoint to reâ€" serve all limits south of Sandy Falls for the present. In any event the limits should be held for a good price at present. There should be no |rush in disposing of them. After a |general discussion it was decided to write to the Dept. of Lands and {Forests to learn just exactly what |areas on the Mattagami watershed are Inow being offered for sale by tender, {as the matter from practically every |standpoint is of vital interest to the | town. Cochrane other question before Iroquois Falls, sCHUMACHER WINS FROM THE LANCASHIRE ELEVEN The Schumacher eleven â€" defeated the Lancashire Club team in the P. D.F.L. here on Thursday last. The score was 2 to 1. The winning goal came five minutes from the end of the match on an individual play. DEMONSTRATION RUN OF NEW FIRE TRUCK THURSDAY Schumacher is making great strides in the League of late, steadily climbâ€" ing the League table. Thursday evening Chief Borland called out the new motor fire truck for a demonstration run and the prompt response was most gratifyâ€" ing. Leaving word at the hall that he would likely eall from Box 63, the Fire Chief and the Inspector went to Moneta and sent in an alarm from Box 65, corner of Tisdale Avenue and Pine Street. was thought that the change in the box number might conâ€" fuse the firemen, and. at«any rate they would have to stop long enough to be sure of the new number, which would offset any advantage they might have by specially expecting a eall. They got the number all right and made a remarkable run, reachâ€" ing the expected ‘‘scene of the fire"‘ in 2% minutes from the time the aâ€" larm was sent in. Good work!. danger to the public at the Spruce Street crossing, near the Golf Course. Reference was made to the narrow escape from tragedy at this crossing some days ago when a light engine came dangerously close to hitting an automobile. The auto driver could not see the moving engine on account of some standing box ears blocking off the view. The standing box cars too often block off view of approachâ€" ing trains or engines at this crossing. The public are accordingly placed in serious danger. There was a generâ€" al discussion as to how the danger might be removed from this muchâ€" used crossing. One suggestion was the installation _ of an alarm bell. Another was that wherever the crossâ€" ing was being used for freight trains or for light engines that a man he stationed at the crossing to warn the users of the road. It was decided to have the President interview the local Station Master to see what may be done to remove the danger from this crossing. On several occeasions The Advance has referred to this dangerous crossing and there is no doubt but that something should be done to protect the public at this crossing. Rev. R., E. Morton, who some years ago was stationed at Iroquois Falls, but recently has been pastor of the Methodist church at Sudbury, has been transferred from the latter town. Kapuskasing.
