HONOUR SHOULO Bf EIVEN ThE MEMory 0F PonEers Oldâ€"timer of Haileybury Makes Plea for Memorial to Founder of Town, Who Did so Much for â€" the North. The public has a notoriously bad memory. Too soon, indeed, are the public services of farâ€"sighted and generous men forgotten. Perhaps, if the public showed more gratitude and appreciation it would be better servâ€" ed. In Canada there seems to be a tendency to forget the men who made history, the men who specially served their day and generation, and especiâ€" ally the pioneers upon whose lives and struggles and unstinted effort the whole progress of the country has been built. The publit should keep fresh in memory the services of all who gave their heart to public service. Especialâ€" ly should the pioneers be honoured. Without the enterprise, the courage, the faith of the pioneers there ecould be no country worth while. A writer in the last issue of The Haileyburian urges that Haileybury should not forâ€" get its first resident and the man who did so much to make the North. This Haileybury writer says :â€"â€" ‘"In viewing the wonders of a reâ€" surrected Haileybury, I wandered into the new County Buildings, built on the site where stood the first house in towpr and as I stood on the steps of the south entrance I thought of the many times I had enjoyed the hospitâ€" ality of that first house when it stood alone on the hillside and the light from its windows at night was a guidâ€" ing star to many a weary traveller when the lake was the only road the hardy northern men had to travel. I refer to the oneâ€"time home of the late Methusaleh ate what he found on his plate, And nevgr, as people do now, Did he note the amount of the ealorie \cuunt-â€" * He ate it because it was chow. He wasn‘t disturbed, as at dinner he sat, Destroying a roast or a pie, To‘ think it was lacking in granular fat, Of a couple of vitamimes shy. He cheerfully chewed every species of food, _ Untroubled by worries or fears Lest his health might be hurt by some fancey dessertâ€" So he lived only nine hundred vears‘! â€"Selected.

GARFIELD HEGGART, OF TIMMINS Last week The Advance had a brief reference to the sad death of Mrs. Garfield Heggart, of WJimmins, who passed away, in Haileybury hospital, at the early age of twenty years. In the last issue of The Haileyburian more extended notice is made to the sad event. The Haileyburian says: "The death of Mrs, Garfield Hegâ€" gart, (nee Esther Mary Grace) ocâ€" curred at the Red Cross Hospital, Haileybury, on April 13th, after an illness of a few weeks dnration She had been taken ill at her home in Timmins, brought hete for an operaâ€" tion, from which she failed to reâ€" cover. She was only twenty years of age and had been marmed four months ago. ~She is survived by her husband, of Timmins, her parents,. one sister and one brother, all oi North Cobalt. The late Mrs. Hegâ€" gart was the daugther of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Grace, of North Cobalt, and was well known to many people in Haileybury, all of whom join in extending sympathy to the sorrowin# husband and parents. The funeral was held on Friday afternoon. Funâ€" eral services were conducted in the Baptist Church here by Rev. Mr. Linâ€" dorse and other clergymen and interâ€" ment was in the Haileybury cemetery.

MEETING IN MAY TO BE REGULAR ONf Second One to be an Open Ni Plans for the Summer Being Considered The A.S.D. Club plan to hold a reâ€" guiar night for the first meeting in Mavy, to be followed by an Open Night on vMay 12th, when wa.'n admission fee of ninetyâ€"five cents, plus five cents amusement tax, will be charged all nonâ€"members of the Club. At a meeting of the Executive Committee on Runday afternoon some discussion took place regarding the summer programme of the Club. A suggestion that the A.S.D. erect a dancing pavilion on a farm up the river did not meet with general favour., (Final decision in regard to the surfimer activities was left off unâ€" til this Sunday. In regard td the closing of the Club for the summer, it has been the custom in past years to end the season with a banquet or masquerade. A new suggestion was put forward on Sunday, and that was to either arrange for a dinner at the Empire Hotel, or hold a banquet in the Grill room of the Hotel, to be folâ€" lowed after by a dance in the Oddâ€" fellows Hall. The president and secretaryâ€"treasurer of the Club, Chas. (¢. Pirie and A. W. Pickering, were delegated to interview the manageâ€" ment of the Empire Hotel and see what could be done in this regard. The season just ending has been a very successful one in the history of the A.S.D. Club. The winter season had several unique events, and the weekly dances on®the whole were well patronized. A further announcement will be made next week in regard to the summer activities to be pursued, though it is evident that this year the Club will not rent a cottage at Golden City, the poor summer seasons of other years having made this a very unprofitable investment,. _‘ ‘ . * Gibson, son of Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Gibson, Lake Shore Road, suffered a fractured ankle last Friday night when he was pinned beneath a crowd of other boys in a game of in the basement of the Unitâ€" ed Church. The boys were having a high time with the game, which is apparently inclined to be somewhat rough, and all came down in a heap with Buster at the bottom. â€"When the mass was untangled, it was found that he had suffered the fracture. He was taken home and medical arid sumâ€" moned and is now resting easily and making progress towards recovery.‘‘ BROKEN ANKLE IS RESULT * OF GAME PLAYED BY BOYS. A simple way in which serious acâ€" cidents may occur is illustrated by the unfortunate incident that resulted in a Haileybury lad having has ankle broken some days ago. The Haileyâ€" burian last week says :â€" A deaf woman entered a church with an ear trumpet. Soon after she had seated herself, an.usher tiptoed over and whisperedâ€"‘‘One toot and out you go."‘ PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO. Open Night. SOME NORTH BAY FOLKS ALARMED OVER ‘‘BAD EGG.‘‘ Now that the fatal date is passed without: an earthquake shock, it may be possible to refer to the matter without creating a panic in North Bay. Several days ago, according to the stories told, a hen laid an egg, and on the egg, in raised dark letters on the shell, were the words, "Earthâ€" quake. Beware. April 21st.‘‘ The inscription was in raised lettering, resembling a youngster‘s attempt at printing. There were people who really believed that the egg had this lettering on it when it was laid, and that it was a supernatural warning. Cold shivers ran up the spines of many. _ Perhaps, a few left North Bay for distant parts to escape the coming calamity. ;But despite all the redâ€"eyed terror, fear and despair in some foolish breasts, the 21st came and passed without any earthquake or other calamity. There was not even little shaking, except on the part of some humorous fellow who must have shook with mirth at the way he put that ‘‘had egg‘‘ over. One man coming to Timmins last week from the Bay was highly indignant at the suggestion that there was nothing supernatural about that hen‘s egg. ‘*Why, I saw the egg, with the inseripâ€" tion,‘‘ he said. Probably he did, but he didn‘t see the hen inscribing the warning. â€" There wasn‘t near as much mystery about that egg as there was about the hen thit gave birth to chickens that all had one wooden leg each. But even that mystery <was solved when it was discovered that the Scotsman who owned the hen had been feeding the bird rations fiftyâ€" fifty of grain and sawdust. The myâ€" stery of the inscribed egg can no $500 and more of every §1000 Studebaker builds all its own engines, thus eliminating outâ€" side engine makers‘ profits of a Car‘s Cost is in the Engine you pay for a car goes for the engine and for the body ;. ~_,.

These important Oneâ€" Profit savings are possible only because Studebaker has more than $100,000,000 in net assets concentrated on the ecoâ€" nomical production of quality cars. World‘s Most Powerful Car of its Size and Weight Based on the rating of the N. A. C.

Timmins MARSHALLâ€"ECCLESTONE, LIMITED HAILEYBURY REGRETS LOSS OF SERGT. PASCOE. The Haileyburian last week says: ‘"Sergeant E. Paseoe, of the local detachment of the Mounted Poliice, has resigned his position with that force after a great many years serâ€" vice and has accepted the position of Chief of Police of the Town of Timâ€" mins. He will go to his new duties early next week. Sergeant and Mrs. Pascoe have been residents of Haileyâ€" bury since 1920 and have become well known and liked by a great circle of friends who will greatly regret their departure. With them will go Alice and Constance Wileox, who have made their home with Mr. and Mrs. Pascoe since the death of their mother some years ago. The many friends of .the family will all wish them every succeess in their new them home.‘ doubt be explained quite easily.
