THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO. popular misapprehension respecting administration of the amusement tax. The fact is that it has worked out deâ€" cidedly to the advantage of churches and charities. The regulation permitâ€" ting exemption only where half the gross receipts of an entertainment go to religious, charitable, educational or community purposes has really had the effect of allowing something to be obtained for these objects. Where all or nearly ‘@ll the receipts of an entertainment go to talent and for other ,expenses, the department conâ€" siders it only fair to collect the tax. ‘*Now that we have it running,‘‘ the minister said, *"‘the churches as a whole, and charitable and fraternal organizations are behind the departâ€" ment, because they realize that for the first time they are sure of getting something. _ When this government came in one of the things we found all over the country was that there was no provision that w@nabled the charity to get an adequate amount from an entertainment. The hallâ€" owner, the talent employed, the busiâ€" ness organizations, got paid and the charities sometimes got nothing. At the same time, the government lost the tax."" Qâ€"‘‘Why do they call +it shingle bob ?"‘ To bring Ontario‘s pulp wood proâ€" duction up to that of the Province of Quebec, Hon. Mr. Ferguson said meant increasing the output to 4,600 tons daily. Sufficient limit had been advertised to make possible this outâ€" put and tenders had been accepted. +*That means,‘‘ the Prime Minister said, ‘‘that $80,000,000 of additional capital is to go into the North Counâ€" try within the next two years. It means that 14,000 additional men are to be taken on to the North Counâ€" try‘s payrolls. And a condition of the contracts is that every stick of the raw material must be manufacâ€" tured into a finished product within Ontario.‘‘ A timber policy which alienates not an acre of pulp land and requires that every stick of pulp shall be manufac tured within Ontario was announced. The Premier declaredl that such a policy had been the basis of contracts recently concluded in Northern Onâ€" tario whereby as large a paper inâ€" dustry as already exists in Quebec was assured to this province. Referring to the Province‘s timber resources, Hon. Mr. Ferguson said, that surveys showed that 200,000,008 cords of pulpwood were available. He made that statement because they were constantly being told that the forest reserves were being irremeâ€" diably depleted. This cordage was not all spruce but the pulp industry was finding that it could use other woods than spruce. At present 2,500 tons of newsprint was being turned out daily and the Government had inâ€" creased the dues on that so that the revenue therefrom now reached $600,â€" 000 a year. â€" With the increased proâ€" duction, which in a few years would be 4,500 tons, the Government would be receiving close to $2,000,000 a year from this source alone. Mr. Raney : paper ?" Mr. Ferguson : ‘‘Into paper. Everyâ€" thing which is necessary in order that the original pulpwood may be deliverâ€" ed to the newspapers ready for use must be done within the Province."‘ The Prime Minister further stated features of the Government‘s policy. Not one single area had been sold. The Government had not disposed of the limits it had advertised, but had contracted to furnish so many cords of wood annually from them to meet the requirements of the industries which were tendering. ‘The contracts were for a 2lâ€"year period, renewable twice for ten years each time, and reâ€" foresfation was a feature of the policy also. f Monday next, March lIst, will see the formal opening of The French shoppe, exelusive millinery, at 7 Birch street, north. Mrs. F. Poulin and Mrs. P. C. Maltais are opening this model millinery, and will have on display the very latest modes and models, featuring the newest from Paris ahd New York,. ‘*In conversation with your corresâ€" pondent on Friday, Hon. W. H. Price, provincial treasurer, cleared up some Recently there has been more or less organized affort to secure the reâ€" peal of the Provincial Amusement Tax, and many different arguments have been advanced to secure this end. One of the chief points usuâ€" ally emphasized is the burden of the tax upon chunches and charities. The other side of the question is given by a ecorrespondent writing from Toront» to The Advance. This correspondent says :â€" FORMAL OPENING OF THE FRENCH SHOPPE ON MONDAY CABINET MINISTER THINKS AMUSEMENT TAX ALL RIGHT There were many points of special interest to the North Land in the adâ€" dress last week by Premier Fergusnn in the Ontario Legislature in his speech upon the address from the throne. n Will Mean Great Progress and V/ill Not Alienate a Single Acre of Pulp Land.

The Schumacher Choral Society gave the programme in the Maple Leatf Theatre at Schumacher a couple of weeks ago, and all who had the pleaâ€" sure of attending it were delighted with the excellence of the event. By special request the programme is beâ€" ing repeated at Timmins on March Tth. Dr. J. A. Mcelnnis will occupy the chair. local man who recently returned from a trip up the Kamiscotia River says he docs not know anything about any placer mining going on there as reported last week. This prospector says that there may be such work in progress, but he does not Iknow of it ‘"‘If there is such activity,"‘ he said, ‘I missed it, that‘s all.‘‘ He believes strongly, hoavever, in the great minâ€" ing possibilities of the Kamiscotia area, and is sure that in the comparaâ€" tively near future there will be big news from the district. American capital ‘has been interested in some of the promising Kamiscotia properâ€" ties and big things are expected this summer. This week or next a party from the United States is expected to visit the district, and after that much activity is oxpected. There was a report last week that placer had been found in the Kamiâ€" seotia River and that the course of the river had been turned at one point so. as to get at the bed for the placer there. No confirmation of this report ha;s been received and this particular prospector who is well posted on the Kamiscotia area is inclined to take the report with considerable reserve. Many oldâ€"time prospectors with exâ€" pyerience in placer nining arg inclined to the opinion that conditions and the contour of the country are against the probability of successful placer minâ€" ingâ€"in this; North Land. They agree that gold may be found in streams or almost any place else in this district, but think that practical placer minâ€" ing is altugether unlikely.
