The cold weather has made it imâ€" possible to hold any further open air band concerts this summer. Up to date eleven such concerts have been given, not including other public apâ€" pearances of the Band. The summer band concerts have proven very popuâ€" lar and there is general regret that the cold evenings prevent their conâ€" tinuance. However, the indoor band concerts will be/starting at an early date and these no doubt will prove as attractive and pleasing as they were in previous seasons. It is inâ€" tended to make the indoor concerts for the coming: season particularly interesting, with special numbers featured. At an early . date anâ€" nouncement will be made of the openâ€" mg indoor band concert for the seaâ€" son. It is likely that the events will be held every two weeks through the winter as was the case last year. In this district, Mr. Sinton said, he knew there was a great demand for further roads for settlers. : The need was often very apparent, but he poinrted out that only so much work could be done. The money availâ€" able for expenditure on roads was in the control of the Executive Council of the Provincial Government. The Northern Development Branch could only spend the money voted to it, and do the most possible with the funds available. Each year there were reâ€" quests for roads that would total twice or three times the expenditure covered by the money available. When the Northern Development Branch had been commenced in 1912, it was granted five million dollars. With this amount it had carried on for five years. Then for a year or two expenditures of the department had averaged around a million dollars a year. But this amount had steadily increased utntil toâ€"day the expenditure is at the rate of $3,000,000.00 per year for roads in the â€"North. There are nine counties or districts included in the area covered by the Northern Development Branch, these nine disâ€" tricts all pressing their elaims for more money or a larger percentage of the amount spent. He said that diâ€" viding the expenditure of three milâ€" lions by nine would give $333,333,33 for each of the districts. _ But this district this year had about twice that much in expenditure, and it will probably be more next year. He sugâ€" gested that if more money must be had for roads in this part of the North that the nine districts concerned get together and formulate a plan in the MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9th IS THANKSGIVING DAY. INDOOR BAND CONCERTS WILL BE STARTED SOON Mr, Sinton showed a very wide knowledte of the North Land, a symâ€" pathetic interest in its problems, and a very comprehensive grasp of all the details of roads, road work, road needs and road possibilities in this North Land. Official notice was published last week in ‘The Canada Gazette, proâ€" claiming Monday, November 9th, as Thanksgiving Day in Canada. It will also be observed as Armistice Day. The members of the Associated Boards felt they were specially favoured in having this official at the meeting. After his excellent address they were convinced that the favour was one of very decided merit and advantace, The array of figures quoted by Mr. Sinton were most illuminating. In some cases they proved a revelation to his audience. He had the happy knack of making figures interesting. In the district from Yorkton to Garâ€" diner on the T. N. O. and from Norembega to Hearst on‘ the C.N.R., including of course the branches like the Poreupine Camp, Iroquois Falls, etc., Mr. Sinton said there were 827 miles of completed road, 190 miles stumped and 400 miles cut. In referâ€" ence to a suggestion in one of the reâ€" ports read at the meeting, to the efâ€" fect that roadwork be used to deâ€" crease unemployment this winter. Mr. Sinton said he did not see how this was practical. ‘‘*There are more roads cut now than we have the money to erade and gravel, so I don‘t see that it would be practical to cut more this winter,‘‘ he said. There were two specially outstandâ€" ing features of the meeting of the Associated Boards of Trade at Cochâ€" rance last week. One was the adâ€" dress of Mr, Smith Ballantyne on Agriculture in this North. _ Further reference is made to this elsewhere in this issue. The other was the inâ€" tensely interesting and informative address by Mr. James Sinton, Chief Engineer of the Northern Developâ€" ment Branch of the Lands Forests Department of Ontario, About Three Millions Spent Annually on Roads of North Of This Amount Over $600,000 Was Spent in Temiskamâ€" ing District. In an Inspiring Address to Associated Boards of TFrade, Mr. Sinton, Chief Engineer of Northâ€" ern Development Branch, Suggests Greater Coâ€"operaâ€" tion in Regard to Road Problems. Mr. Sinton mentioned that both the Department in Toronto and the local officials were always glad to coâ€"operate with the Associated Boards of Trade or any other body for the good of the North.. The Northern Development Branch had always enjoyed satisfacâ€" tory relations with the Associated Boards and other bodies. This stateâ€" ment was interrupted by enthusiastic applause, confirming the appreciative remarks, made earlier in the day by delegates in regard to Mr. Duff and other local officials. Mr. Sinton, howâ€" ever_went on to say that in some cases the Department had not received as much coâ€"operation from the settlers as should have been given. In some cases the coâ€"operation was too oneâ€" sided. The Department was often called on to make some trifling repair to a culvert or road, when the settler could easily have fixed the trouble with practically no expense or loss of time. Often it meant considerable loss and cost for the Department to attend to this minor matter. Mr. Sinâ€" ton urged that the settlers organize at least for statute labour. In this way they could help a lot, benefitting themâ€" selves and relieving the Department. Organization for statute labour purâ€" poses only would not cost them anyâ€" thing except a little time and it would keep their roads in good shape. On Thursday last while Mr. and Mrs, Archie McDonald, of Engleâ€" hart, were taking their infant son to Toronto for medical treatment, the child passed away on the train when near New Liskeard. The parents left the train at Haileybury, returnâ€" ingâ€" by motor to Englehart with the body of the infant. After the distribution of the memâ€" bership cards, sthe President, Mr. Patrick Fay, paid a tribute of fareâ€" well to Mr. Patrick Kennedy, who is about to leave for the United States. Mr. Kennedy has= been a faithful member of the Socftety since its beâ€" ginning, and if he were remaining in Timmins he would prove so to the end, the President said. The departâ€" ure of Mr. Kennedy is very much reâ€" gretted amongst the members of the Society, and in wishing him well in his new home, the members feel that when he tells the story of the mining industry of Northern Ontario he will do credit to the Society and do good service for this country. In reply to the objection often voieâ€" ed in the North to the expensive highways in the South, Mr. Sinton showed where such highways were necessary on account of the heavy traffic. The bg tourist traffic from the United States, and the large amount of money thus brought to the country, together with the general adâ€" vantage to business, etc., were justiâ€" fcation of the expenditures for Southâ€" ern Highways. He referred to the dupllcatlon of the Hamilton Highway, made necessary by the immense and increasing traffic. ‘*Will the Kingâ€" ston Highway have to be duplicated now?‘‘ he was asked. He hardly thought it necessary. ‘*According to your logic in regard to the nine disâ€" tricts of the North Land, if one seeâ€" tion gets an increase all the othersl must too,"‘‘ it was pointed out. Mr. Sinton replied that of course roadsl down South or in the North were built where they were thought to be needed, and not on the plan of just spending money here or there. *‘ that‘s what we want,"‘‘ said a member, IRISH SOCIETY WISHES DEPARTING MEMBER WELL .A very hearty round of continued applause greeted Mr. Sinton as he reâ€" summed his seat after his very helpâ€" ful address. Then followed more enâ€" thusiastic applause in the carrying of a hearty vote of thanks to Mr. Sinton. The Hail Committee recommended the taking over of larger and more suitable premises on Third Avenue. Mr. Sinton outlined the progress made on the trunk road from North Bay to Cochrane. By the end of the season there would be 40 miles comâ€" pleted in the Temagami district, while only a few comparatively short strips would be necessary to connect up the whole road from North Bay to Cochâ€" rane. In much of the unfinished section of the road the rightâ€"ofâ€"way had been cut, and the completion of the highway was now discernible in the comparatively near future. The meeting of the Irish Society of Timmins was largely attended on Sunday evening when cver 50 memâ€" bers wereâ€"duly presented with memâ€" bership cards. ‘"‘"roads where they are so badly need ed for the settler.‘‘ In regard to gravelling or roads, Mr. Sinton pointed out that the lack of gravel had often been a drawback. matter. He did not think that thi@ district could secure much larger proâ€" portion of the money now available. He thought that an increase in one district would mean an increase in all.
