As a result of the move, the will lose one of its most promi sportsmen in the person of Ge MeNamara, well known through association with the Sault \G hounds. It was George who suec fully piloted this famous hockey t to so many championships, and loss will be distinctly felt, not onl Sault Ste. Marie is suffering a big loss. The MeNamaras are leaving that eity. The MeNamaras have made the Sault famous. Hockey has made the Sault known throughout the land, and the MeNamaras were the ho"s who made hockey known in the Sault. The Sault News recently told of the removal of the MceNamaras in the following paragraph:â€"‘‘*During the next two weeks the Sault will lose one of its pioneer engineering firms when the MeNamara Construction Company will move their head office from this city to Toronto. The"company‘s busiâ€" ness in this city is now being wound up and the entire staff will be taken east as soon as possible.

Students are still enrolling for the various courses, and the attendance at the classes is now up to the record of last year. A feature of the classes this year is the regularity of the atâ€" tendance, this being very satisfactory to all concerned. The Evening Classâ€" es are proving of unusual value and es are proving of unusual value an« this season promise to exceed all form er records for genuine success. SAULT STE, MARIE LOSES LARGE PART OF ITS POWER Under provincial statute there is power to regulate the loads that may be carried, it is said, but it is a diffiâ€" cult matter to handle the situation over such a wide district, and allowâ€" ance must be made for the common sense of truck owners and drivers. good of the general public. Care should be taken by all to see that roads are not unnecessarily damaged through the overloading of trucks. Also, owners of tractors should see that roads are properly protected from the sharp wheels designed for use on rough ground. There are few enough good roads in this North without allowing any of the passable ones to be damaged by lack of conâ€" sideration for the general good. This question of unnecessary damâ€" age to roads is by no means confined to this part of the North Land. In the Cobalt, Haileybury and Liskeard districts the same question has been to the front recently. In this conâ€" nection The Northern News, of Cobalt, says:â€"More damage was done to the roads of the district during the recent soft spell than during the enâ€" tire summer, and heavy trucks and ol trucks were largely: responsible, acâ€" cording to information given out by officials of the Northern Development Branch. Loads out of all proportion to the condition of the highways were piled on these vehicles, it is said, and one truck, carrying a heavy consignment of steel and furniture, went through in one place right to the axles. This truck was two hours going two miles over the road, which was exceedingly soft following the thaw which came on the heels of the snowfall. As a result of this thoughtlessness on the part of drivers and owners the roads, which, it had been expceted, would have been left in good condition for the winter months, are likely to be bad in the spring. ~There is noâ€"use in putting on gravel under these condiâ€" tions, the officials say, .and there is also real danger that some of these heavy trucks may go through a bridge. EVENING CLASSES HERE MAKING GOOD PROGRESS The Advance has fought hard for good roads in this North Land, but this paper would like to point out that where roads are secured the people themselves must do their part to see that the roads are given a fair show. Reference was made some weeks ago to the fact that finished roads in this town were being cut up by heavy tracâ€" tors with sharp wheels It seems a shame that having pavements or a wellâ€"s:urfaced roads, the benefit should be destroyed by any type of transâ€" portation machinery that is not fit for use on any roadway. Overloaded trucks also do damage to certain types of roads that otherwise would be good for years for ordinary traffic. The matter seems to be a case where the people in general must ‘‘play the game,‘‘ and where greed on the part of a few must be subordinated to the good of the general Care ROADS BEING DAMAGEB BY OVERLOADED TRUGKS Northern Development Branch Ofâ€" ficials Refer to Serious Handiâ€" cap to Good Roads was George who su this famous hockey championships, an s, ~and his not only in ureé more ; summer. the Sault Yrominent (4 rey CC am his THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO. The answer was: ‘‘About the same time as your dead will smell the flowers."‘ ‘‘When do y« eat the food 2‘ Commenting on an article that apâ€" peared in The Toronto Star relative to the question The Speaker says:â€" Perhaps Temiskaming should take t as a compliment that whereas land is given away in the other Ontario newer dlstncts, the Government beâ€" lieves Temiskaming land is so superior that it must be paid for, and that only eighty acres may be purchased. Eighty acres, of course, would be amâ€" ple for the small farmer, or for a marâ€" ketâ€"gardener, and even last week, we had an advertisement from a farmer who wanted to purchase an eighty acre farm near New Liskeard. There are those whe prefer small farms, but the real Canadian farmer who wants to go in for mixed farming, must have the privilege of purchasing at least one hundred and sixty acres. We know that in Old Ontario the farmer did not, as a rule, make finâ€" ancial headway. Indeed, the successâ€" ful farmer on an hundred acre farm, always felt that he ought ‘to have more land, and many of. them rented pasture land in addition to cuhvatlng their 100â€"acre farms. Last week The New Liskeard Speaker returned to the diseussion of the new regulation setting 80 acres as the size of farms for settlers in this North Land. ‘*We are not atâ€" tacking the Minister of Lands, for whom we have the greatest respect, and in whom the people have the greatest confidence,"‘‘ says The Speakâ€" er. ‘*‘We are merely guarding the interests of agmeultural Temiskaâ€" ming,‘‘ continues .

He was working in the shaft when the cage descended and crushed him against the bottom of the shaft. _ At the time there were fourâ€" teen inches of water at the bottom, and in this Brown was submerged, but the water helped to ease the presâ€" sure on the man‘s ‘body. The cage and an empty ore car it contained weighed about 2800pounds. An unusual accident is recorded by The Northern News last week relative to the narrow escape from death of a miner when a cage came down on top of him and erushed him, the water at the bottom of the shaft being apâ€" PECULIAR ACCIDENT AT KIRKLAND LAKE MINE The wages of gin is debt.
