Relative to the meeting of the Onâ€" tario Mining Association at Sudbury recently, The Sudbury Star says:â€" ‘‘"At the annual convention of the Ontario Mining Association, held in Sudbury and the Bay of Islands. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week, the activities of the association were reviewed by J. L. Agnew, presiâ€" dent, in his annual address. Mr. Agâ€" new dealt particularly with the W orkâ€" men‘s Compensation rates, and in the discussion that followed ways and means of reducing the number of acâ€" dents were debated. Dr. C. V. Corâ€" liss stated that lessening of the toll of accidents was highly desirable, not only on account of the costs involved but also from humanitarian considerâ€" ations. â€"It is proposed to give special attention to the workmen‘s compensaâ€" tion â€" problem ~during the coming vear."" In reference to the discussion of acâ€" cidents at the mines, The Northern Miner said :â€"â€" ‘*The whole accident situation was reviewed and a committee appointed to consider the various suggestions and formulate a plan to reduce aceiâ€" dents. What was being done at variâ€" ous mines was recounted. Mr. John Knox told of the system just brought into forcee at the Hollinger of. traimâ€" ing a percentage of each crew in first aid work.

SPECIAL SERVICES HELD AT KIRKLAND LAST WEEK The Northern News last week on its Kirkland Lake news page says :â€" Many in this Camp know Mr. Roy Douglas, of the General Electric Co., Cobalt, and so will have a double inâ€" terest in the fish story with which he has recently been associated. Accorâ€" ding to this story, Roy was fishing at Temagami Lake some days ago. Still further according to thé story, he caught a trout weighing 23 pounds in its stocking feet.

Mur: doch. } THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO to Timmins is like carrying coals to Neweastle. Interesting and Pointed Letter on Importance of Pulp Industry. Dr. Clifton D. Howe, Dean of the Faculty of Forestry, University of Toronto, under the heading, ‘‘Cutâ€" ting Down Industries With Flame Throwers,‘‘ has written a powerful appeal for the conservation of Canaâ€" da‘ts forest wealth. Dean Howe reâ€" cognises that the chief danger to the forests of the country is from fire Building on this fact, he shows the outstanding importance of the pulp and paper industry, and urges all to thought and action to serve the indusâ€" tries. Dean Howe says:â€" The pulp and paper company, proâ€" ducing 150,000 tons of paper annually distributed between five and six milâ€" lion dollars each year in the communâ€" ity in which it may be located. _ At least a half dozen such companies are forming new centres of industry in the more remote districts of Canada. Farming communities are growing up around them, stores and shops are beâ€" established, railway traffic of all kinds is being stimulated. _ The people in such â€" communties are _ prosperotus, happy and contented. ~The pulp and paper companies are accomplishing more than any other agent, not even excepting mining compantes, in buildâ€" ng up and st: abilizing business in the pioneering communties . across the Dominion. Their failure would bring very great economic distress. _ Yet they will not go on, they cannot go on with their present volume of business unless their pulpwood is more effecâ€" tively protected from destruction by forest fires than has been the case in the past. KEEP FORESTS GREEN, URGES DEAR AOWE A pulp and paper company, proâ€" ducing 150,000. tons of newsprint in a year, makes in each working day ennugh paper in a strip a foot wide nearly to span the world. _ Such a eompany uses around 650 cords of pulpwood every day, more than 200,â€" 000 cords in a year. I know of a comâ€" pany like this that has been in exisâ€" tence about a dozen years and, in that time, they have lost as much wood through forest fires as they have transformed into paper. Wealthâ€" producing _ and _ wealthâ€"destroying forces have run an equal race in that community. Do you realize what that means? It means that the life of an industry, distributing between five and six million dollars in a comâ€" munity each year, can be only half as long as it might have been had the destructive forest fires been kept in check. And this®case is no excepâ€" 1jo0we reâ€" er to the rom _ fire hows the the pulp es all to he indusâ€" Your reaction, reader, to this statement is doubtless the usual one. You eurse the government, especially if it is represented by a party holding political views different from your own. â€" But only yourself is to blame. You are the one recreant to a **public duty and public trust."‘‘ The governâ€" ment represents you and you own the pulpwood forests of the country. Keep Canada‘s forests green. Two of Swastika‘s popular young people were united in marriage on Monday, July 206th, at Ramore, when Miss Eglatine Boivin became the bride of Mr. Robert Young. Rev. Fr. LeDue performed the eeremony. The young couple leff on the National on their honeymoon and on their return will take up their residence in Swasâ€" tika. tion. Is such a policy businessâ€"like; is it patriotic; does it represent real Canadianism ? Any persons having left goods for Hemâ€"stitching, etc., at Mrs. V.
