Aboutâ€" 100 from Timmins accompanied the fireâ€" men to Cobalt for the event, There was a great reception given Chief Borland and his men on their return here after the event. The Timmins Band headed a procession that formâ€" ed at the station on the arrival of the train. The procession marched to the fire hall where there was insistent deâ€" mand for a speech from the fire chief Chief Borland thanked the citizens for their appreciation and support and told the big crowd how proud he was of the firemen here. This was the first of a series of successes by the Timmins firemen at tournaments in the North, the firemen also provâ€" ing they were equally good at actual fireâ€"fighting work.

Here is an item from The Advance of July 4th, 1917, that should be of special interest just at present:â€"*‘In Fripp township recently, John Jones, took. out ‘some wonderful ‘samples from what are generally. known as the Stanley Martin claims. _ These samples run 37 per cent. copper and $32.00 to the ton in gold, and they are not picked from a pocket either but just fair averages as they come. The ~Stanley Martin claims were staked before the Poreupine otherwise was discovered. Stanley Martin was in partnership in the matter with Joe Moore, the Indian prospector, and they located these elaims in 1907 Martin went to the front with the Princess Pats, and was killed. â€" He had intended that his partner should have the elaims in such a case, but on account of some formality in the reâ€" gistering it is not known now whether Mr. Moore has a clear title or not, or whether the claims have lapsed and so are open to the last staker.‘ Ten years ago the body of Mr. 0. M. Hennessy, wellâ€"known and highly regarded in the North Land, was found just below Couchiching Falls. He was one of the outside staff of the Abitibi Power Paper Co., and his death was deeply regretted by wide circles. He had gone on a canoe trip, and the paddles of the canoe were found some days later while there was no word nor trace of Mr. Hennessy or companion. Search parties went out seeking the two men, and eventually the body of Mr. Hennessy was recovâ€" ered. â€" He was one of the most widelyâ€" known lumbermen in the North, and had also ‘been one of the town councilâ€" lors of Haileybury.

MAKES PLEA FOR BETTER SPORTSMANLIKE SPIR!HT Open Letter on iIncident Saturday Evening at Football Match Here. The Advance this week received the following letter with a request from the writer for its publication in this issue :â€" Dear Editor:â€"I would esteem it a favour if you would allow me a part of your 1 valuable space for the followâ€" Referring to the regrettable inciâ€" dent that occurred on Saturday evenâ€" ing, July 2nd, during the later stages of the Laheashireâ€"Dome match, it is most #®ppalling that certain players should lose their heads to the extent of walking off the field I would ask of theim not to adopt such selfish characteristics, but to play the game, and remember there are twentyâ€"two players on the field, and above all there are spectators who pay admissâ€" ion to see clean sport and to encourâ€" ave the players in promoting this sport to further success by their presence. I am not going to remark on the referee‘s ruling. I leave that to the proper authorities. But I would apâ€" peal to all our local footballers to reâ€" member that when on the field they have a captain. . The referee‘s decisâ€" ions are final. They must play to ms decisions for the full ninety minutes; after which, if dissatisfied with his rulings, then the eaptain can use his authority and lodge a protest through the proper channels. By such action the captain seeks redress in the proper way. â€" Incidentally such action will be promoting cleaner football, for if the referee is found incapable of controlâ€" ling a match his services will, be disâ€" pensed with As it is, As it is, the incident of Saturday leaves the players who were guilty of leaving the field open to strong critiâ€" cism and liable to penalty for their disregard of the rules. _ They are weakening their team and discouragâ€" ing their supporters. The spectators pay admission to see a game, and if the players abide by the rules and Fresh strawberries and Anew thrill for your palate New health for your body Give yourself this treat today! players abide by the rules and k redress in the proper quarters, rein lies their only hope of having zames handled. rightly and fairly. »y will,then be promoting cleaner Timmins, July 4.‘ 1927 football, and will then receive the fullest support of their supporters. As the incident referred to goes they stand to lose everything. Yours truly, Mr. Geo. Pond, and son, Jim. left on Tuesday morning for Cobalt, where Jim will visit relatives for some time.
