Marloch *Calls at Greenock ‘*During the year many delegations and parties were welcomed to town and entertained by the Board. Among these may be metioned: the Toronto Board of Trade delegation and the reâ€" presentatives of the British Press. A very pleasing banquet was given to the latter under the joint auspices of the Board of Trade and the Kiwanis ‘‘The question of roads for the settlers and others in the district around was constantly kept before the Government, both by resolutions and by delegations, the President, Mr. F. M. Wallingford, being especially helpâ€" ful in the matter of placing matters before the Government. In July Mr. Wallingford was one of the delegaâ€" tion from the Associated Boards meetâ€" ing the whole Cabinet at Roronto. This deputation made a very favourâ€" able impression with the case presentâ€" ed for the North and its needs. The benefit will come to this district no doubt from the increased knowledge and interest of the Government. Through the interview speedy action wais secured on some needed road im-l provements. A promise also secured from the Government to the effect that transfer of timber limits would not be granted the Mattagami Pulp and Paper Co. arragements were made for the paying of the settlers for wood sold the company previous to the receivership. The suggestion of the Timmins Board of Trade that Corresponaence School courses or other methods be taken to provide educational facilities for the families of settlers in sparselyâ€"settled districts of the North was also favourably conâ€" sidered. The Government has inâ€" augurated the Correspondence Courses as suggested. ‘*During the year the Board passed resolutions urging the erection of a post office building in Timmins suitâ€" able for the growing needs of the town. Cofsideration was promised by the Government. Similar conâ€" sideration was promised in regard to the Board‘s urgent request for a dock at the Mattagami Landing. These questions should be kept well to the front this year. ‘‘During the year the Board of Trade accomplished much for the advantage of Timmins, and attempted still more., ‘‘During the year the Board held ten general meetings, as well as a number of meetings of the Council of the Board of Trade. In addition, questions of urgency were dealt w ith by the President, after consultation with as many members as could be gotâ€" ten in touch with. â€" The Secretary alâ€" so dealt with considerable routine correspondence, etce. At the annual meeting of the Timâ€" mins Board of Trade last week the annual report summarizing the acâ€" complishments and work of the year 1925 showed that the Board had been instrumenta 1 in inaugurating and carrying, through many things of adâ€" vantage to Timmins and the district. The report was made under difficulâ€" ties, as the minute books, correspondâ€" ence and recordsâ€"were not available. The following is the report as read :â€" ‘‘Owing to the fact that the Secreâ€" tary of the Board of Trade for 1925 has left town and omitted to turn over the minute book and correspondâ€" ence, it is difficult to give aâ€"complete review of the activities of the Board during 1925. The following, however, is submitted as summarizing the acâ€" tivities of this body last year. Empress of France...... Feb. 9 Acting in Conjunction with the Associated Boards, Counâ€" cil and Other Bodies, Timmins Boeard Inaugurated and Carried Through Many Good Things. Express Delivery Limits Extended. Correspondence Course for Children of Settlers. Prospectors‘ Supplies Now Taken as Bagâ€" gage.

Haileybury is purchasing a new type of imow plough. According to The Haileyburian this new type of snow plough will not only remove the snow, but also has an attichment for seraping off the ice and leaving it in such a condition that it will eliminate danger of slippig. It does away with the necessity for sprinkling sand on the walks,â€"so The Haileyburian From a perusal of the above it will be seen that the Timmins Board of Trade in 1925 was of considerable usefulness to Timmins. With a more general interest and coâ€"operation, a great deal more could have been acâ€" complished The year 1925 is past, but 1926 js here and this year gives another opportumty for allâ€"business men and citizens generallyâ€"to assist in making the Board,of Trade of the fullest advantage to the town and disâ€" triet. * ‘‘During the year the President and (G@. A. Medonald attended meetâ€" ings of the‘ Assoceiated Boards of Trade at Englehart and Cochrane, taking special interest in such quesâ€" tions as: the Correspondence School idea for the children of settlers in sparselyâ€"settled areas; the urging more expenditures for needed roads for settlers and prospectors, suppleâ€" mental examinations for pupils tryâ€" ing on the Middle School examinâ€" ations and failing by only a few marks; and the resolution urging the Government in fairness to provide for indigents from unorganized temtory in the same way that the municipalâ€" ities have to care and provide for the indigents chargeable to them.‘‘ ‘‘Another question that was of special interest was that of the Placâ€" er field in Denton and other townâ€" ships, as well as the promising mines in the same locality. At a. meeting of the Board on Aug. 17th a resoluâ€" tion was passed urging the Governâ€" ment to provide a passable road to Whitesides, Denton and other promigâ€" ing townships concerned. Another resolution asked that a geologist be sent to examine the area. It is underâ€" stood that the Geologlst s report will be available soon. ‘*‘Through a conference with the T. N. O0, Commission in November, two requests by the Board were granted. One of these was that proâ€" spectors‘ supplies be carried as baggâ€" age. The other was that the time limit for the return of aftos on the reduced rate be increased to its forâ€" mer time of six months. While in answer to the third request for a reâ€" duction of freight rates on ties the Commission did not grant the reducâ€" tion, the Commission did point out that the T. N. 0. rates are now the lowest on the continent for ties, lbut that in any special case they would be ready to consider the matter with a view to making special terms. ‘*On Sept. 28th the Board held a meeting for the discussion of the Parking Byâ€"Jlaw. The Council had been requested to pass the byâ€"law, but at once it was apparent that there was great difference of opinion in the Bhe Board of Trade proved a very serviceable medium for a thorough diseussion of the quesâ€" tion. As a result of the meeting the Council was in position to know the general opinion of the business men of the town in the matter. The inciâ€" dent suggests that the Board of Trade may be of still further use to the citizens if they will maeite full use of its meetings. emphasis was given by reâ€" solution: and otherwise to the need for starting work early on the roads in the North. In OQctober there was a conference here with higher officials of the Northern Development Branch Roads Department. â€" The benefit of this will be apparent next summer if the matter is constantly followed up. Cregip; the Parking byâ€"law; the danâ€" gerous railway crossing nearghe CGolf course. In each case the question at issue was brought strongly to the atâ€" tention of the authoritiee concerned and the proper action urged. ‘*Among the local questions speciâ€" ally considered by the Board during the year were: a suitable post office building; a dock at Mattagami; roads in the district; a bridge over Fulham ‘‘The Timmins Board of Trade enâ€" tertained the Northern Ontario Asâ€" sociated Boards of Trade on the ocâ€" casion of that body meeting at Timâ€" mins in February. A very successâ€" ful banquet was held in honour of the visitors. The moetting was largely atâ€" tended and very successful. In all the Associated Boards of Trade meetâ€" ings the Timmins Board has taken a useful part, many of the resolutions originating here. One of the most imâ€" portant questions before the Februâ€" ary meeting of the Associated Boards was the matter of Power Facilities and the Cost of Power, ably presentâ€" ed by Mr. T. F. King. ‘‘Through a consideration inaugurâ€" ated by the Board of Trade, the Exâ€" press Delivery limits were extended to include practically the whole town.

Emphasis. is given to the fact that it is designed to serve not only Iroquois Falls, but the whole surrounding district. There have been rumours to the 'ofiect that Hon. Edumnd Bristcl has ’dropped out of the company that had planned to develop the china clay deâ€" posits north of Cochrane, and that as a »corsequence nothing" fur‘her was likely to develop in regard to the claims for the immediate present. From what can be learned in the matâ€" ter the part of the rumour is all wrong. It is tinderstood that Hon. Mr. Bristol has dropped from the proâ€" posed company, but that other financâ€" ing has been arranged and the work of development of the china clay deâ€" posits will be taken up actively at once. Fully thirty thousand dollars will be spent this winter in developâ€" ing the china clay deposits north of Cochrane. A large amount of supâ€" plies, etc., including horses, hay and cats, food, a rotary snow plough, etce., etc., has already been shipped to Mr. C. A. MeCarthy, the discoverer of the china clay ibeds, and it is understpod active work is to commence at once. Around Cochrane there is a general belief that the T. N. 0. Railway north of Cochrane will be extended to the new china, clay beds as soon as their practical worth is proven, and that this will be apparent as soon as sufficient development work is done on the elaims. There is a general beâ€" jef that a great new industry will materialize in the new china clay deâ€" posits. . Well, here‘s the best of luck!
