There was insistent encore for her first number, and her second selection was equally well received. *This young lay is an accomplished pianist for her years. She was one of the winners in the recent pianoforte competition here for boys and girls under fourteen. Recently the Timmins Board of Trade took up with the T. N. O. Railway Commission the question of the charges made for carrying prosâ€" pectors‘ supplies and canoes when travelling on regular prospecting and assessment work trips. The question of the freight rate on ties was also discussed with the Commission at the same time. â€" The Commission promised to consider both requests and give definite answer after the meeting of the Commission that week in North Bay. The answer has been duly reâ€" ceived, and the prospectors are grantâ€" ed the privilege of shipping up to 150 Ibs. of supplies as baggage. The present rate for canoes, however, is continued. The rate on ties is also unchanged, being the lowest rate for ties given by any railroad in this country In dealing with these quesâ€" tions the, Commission has shown its invariable disposition to do all that can be done for the interests of the prospectors and the lumbering indusâ€" try, while at the same time looking after the general interests of the Railway. The privilege of shipping supplies as baggage will be of great advantage to the prospectors and will no doubt be much appreciated. The following is the letter from the Commission to the Timmins Board of Trade :â€" T. N. 0. Railway Commission Agrees to Request of Board of Trade in This Particular. Canoes, However, Will be Under Present Tariff. â€" Rate on Ties Can Not be Changed at Present, but Special Cases Will be Conâ€" sidered. Prospectors‘ Supplies Willâ€" Be Accepted as Baggage Dear Sir:â€"Request, _ Prospectors be granted privilege of checking canâ€" oes and sirpplies on tickets. Desire to refer to conference of representaâ€" tives of your Board with Commussion * The Band Concert in the Goldfields Theatre Sunday evening after the church services won special favour with the large attendance. The band selections were up to the usual high standard set by the Timmins Citiâ€" zens‘ Band, while the rest of the proâ€" gramme proved â€" specially popular. The vocal selection by Master W. Shewan was very effectively given. The audience insisted on an encore, and Master Shewan and Mr. E. Street responded with a duet that won insisâ€" tent encore. The audience liked the singing so well that there was a deâ€" cided inclination to encore the encore number also. The audience showed very emphatically its appreciation of the good voice and very spirited and expressive singing of Master Shewan. Mr. Street later in the evening favourâ€" ed the gathering with a solo effectâ€" ively given in good voice and his exâ€" cellent solo work won the same apâ€" preciation shown to him and to Master Shewan in their clever duet singing. North Bay, Nov. 17th, 1925 Mr..J. K. Moore, Secy Board of Trade, Timmins, Ont. SPECIAL INTEREST SHOWN IN BAND CONCERT PROGRAMMTE Another special favourite on the programme was the saxophone solo by Bandsman T. Stephens, whose gifted work won decided encore. In the reâ€" ponding number, Mr. C. Pond, saxoâ€" phone artist, also assisted effectively. Mrs. Pond played the piano accomâ€" paniments for these numbers. Mr. W. H. Wilson, at the piano, also gave his usual valuable service as accomâ€" panist during the evening. The Band played effectively and well. Among the selections given were:â€"march, *‘*‘Marine _ Corps"‘; overture, ‘‘Le Diadem‘‘; waltz, Reâ€" flections‘; overture, ‘Les Spoir de Alsâ€" ace‘"‘:selection, **Il Trovatore."‘ THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO. As promised by Chairman, these two questions were ‘given very serious consideration by Commission, and I am now directed to advise you with regard to same as follows :â€" Prospectors‘ Suppliesâ€"Favourable consideration was given your request regarding this question and instrueâ€" tions are now being issued that bona fide prospectors, presenting Miners‘ Licenses, may be permitted to check 150 lbs. of supplies, which are usually carried by prospectors. The eanoes, however, will have to be handled unâ€" der the usual Tariff Regulations as at present in effect. Re Freight Rates on Tiesâ€"The Commission at the present time have the lowest tie rates in effect in this country and they eannot see their way clear to make any reduction in the present rate. f s in Timmins on Wednesday last, when you presented the request with respect to checking of prospectors‘ supplies on tickets,â€"and reduction in freight rate on ties. CZ large supply of ties, the Commussion, on being presented by facts, and shown the agreement covering the contract will be very pleased to give the quesâ€" tion of reduced rates consideration A.

CALEDONIAN DANCE ON FRIDAY EVENING, NOV. 27 TIMMINS DOGS WIN PRIZE AT ROYAL WINTER FPAIR Thoroughâ€"bred dogs from Timmins made excellent showing at the Royal Winter Fair at Toronto this year. With the competition from all over the continent and from over seas at the Royal Winter Fair it is a decided honour to win the prizes at this event. Timmins dogs brought home decided khonours from the Royal Winter Fair. Mr. J. Massie‘s cocker spaniels again proved their outstanding worth, winning four prizes in their class, carrying away a first, a second and two third prizes. Mr. J. N. Levine also made good showing with his Sceotch collies, winâ€" ing a first and a second in this class. During the past summer 8200 were visited in their foster homes by offiâ€" cials of the Children‘s Aid Societies and reports made in each case and submitted to Mr. Kelso, Provincial Superintendent. Copies of these reâ€" ports are in turn forwarded to the Society holding the guardianship so that they may have complete informaâ€" tion concerning existing conditions. Any suggestion of illâ€"treatment, overâ€" work or lack of schooling was prompâ€" tly attended to, but fortunately comâ€" plaints have been etceedan'l) few. While the majority of children are in country homes, there are many placed in towns and cities, and in every grade from the humblest to the highest. Young people under the care of the Society are attending university, in training as nurses, schoolâ€"teaching and engaged in all lines of business. Fifâ€" teen thousand wards of Children‘s Aid Societies have attained years of maturity and are now managmg their own affairs. SUPERVISION OF FPOSTER HOMES BY CHILDREN‘S AID Millionaire (speaking to a body of students): **‘All my success, all my financial prestige, I owe to one thing aloneâ€"pluck, pluck, pluck.‘"‘ Student: ‘*But how are we to find the right people to pluck?" For Coughs and Colds. _ Relieves Sore Throat, Lung Trouble, and Bronchitis Sold at the GOLDFITELD DRUG STORE and all dealers D Charles Goodyear, whose inventâ€" tions made possible the modern use of rubber, was born the very same year that the first rubber was brought into the United States, It is not reâ€" corded, however, that he started his experiments at once. Previous to his time great difficulty was encountered in getting the gum to stand the changes of temperature from summer to winter. Scientific aceuracy is very necessary in the making of rubber goods. Coâ€" lumbus Rubber Boots are made under the very best conditions to secure great durability as well as comfort. Each step in the process is carefully watched by men of long experience. All the best dealers handle these boots. ANOTHER PLEA FOR THE BEST CHANCE FOR BOYS ‘‘There is no better missionary work than taking a homeless boy and trainâ€" ing him for useful citizenship. In all our countries there are people with comfortable homes who could do this service for God and humanity. The need is so great that our Children‘s Aid Societies should adopt aggressive and ingenious methods of securing good homes. It is never wise to wait for homes to turn up. They should be diligently sought by enthusiastic workers.‘‘=â€"J. J.‘ Kelso. WESTERN CANADA FLOUR MILLS CO., LIMITED Head Officeâ€"TORONTO Sor all your haking 180â€"page Purity Flour GOOR Book.
