"A hol THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO "*Dr.. W. 6. Qoodwin, dean of Onâ€" tario geologists, who now conducts vrospectors‘ elasses in the various mining camps of Ontario, so that the prospectors when they take the field will have a better ‘‘nose‘‘ for minâ€" erals, makes some interesting comâ€" ments on this new trend which the mining industry is taking. What he notices most among the 1925 producâ€" ing mines and the most promising prospects are the old abandoned venâ€" tures that have been taken up and worked extensively. Not only in the older districts, but in the newer as well, do we find old properties taken up and made into very. succeessful ventures.. An outstanding example of this is the Vipond, which was taken up by Dr. J. M. a time when it was practically abandoned as a hopeless project, and has since become a véry successful enterprise. Dr. Bell‘s experience in this regard has been rather unique, He took hold of Keeley and made it a suceess, He took hold of the Maidens, also in South Lorrain, and after working on it as a prospect for several years, he is now bringing it to the stage of a successful producer.‘‘ ‘‘The triumph of modern mininy methods is being strongly emphasized in the revival of numerous old Onâ€" tario and British Columbia mining properties that were abandoned years ago as being unprofitable for further operation. Thus, while the oldâ€"time prospector gives up his attention to exploratory efforts in new fields, a more scientific effort is being put forth among the old properties of the late ‘eighties. Here trained engineers are in charge of the effort. _ These trained men with their staffs are movâ€" ing in certain definite areas, combing the rocks for indications of mineral wealth. It will be of interest to Old Country folks to know that the great bulk of this early day mining was by English groups, and English groups are playing an important part in the revival. ‘‘Canada,"‘‘ the illustrated journal published at London, England, has some interesting comments to make on what it terms a ‘‘new trend in the mining industry.‘‘ savVs iâ€"â€" s MODERN MINING METHODS TRIUMPHING IN CANADA SUCCESSFUL SALE OF APRONS AND HOME BAKING ‘*Na,"‘ replied the Seot, "I couldna part wi‘ him.

The straight and narrow path is plenty wide enough for all the traffic it gets. Happiness sees all the beauties of nature, on her journey; gloom sees only the rough roads and mudholes. _ Last week there were reports brought to town that Mr. T. J. Mecâ€" (Grath, who has been missing from his home here since the early morning hours of Sept. 28th, had been seen at Gowganda. Further _ enquiries by the police failed to substantiate these reports, and there seems to be reason for believing that the reports arose from a case of mistake in identity. Ever since his disappearance efforts have been made to locate the missing man or to learn his fate, but to the present all attempts to find out what happened to him or where he is have been without any results. A large number of cireulars have been sent all over the country, giving his photoâ€" graph and a description of the man, and the assistance of police officers at other places in this Province and in other Provinces have been enlisted but in vain. Up to the present there is no trace of Mr. T. J. MceGrath. NO TRACE OF T. J. McGRATH, * MISSING SINCE SEPT. 28 Monday, February 8thâ€"Timmins in Froquois Falls.
