Box 19 ‘ Timminsg | John W.FoggLtd 2 Lumber, Building Materials, Coal There were road accidents in Timâ€" mins ten years ago, though not so many. The Advance tells of one of the rare events as follows:â€"*‘‘*Some excitement was created Sunday afterâ€" noon by the collision of a motor eyele and a fine big delivery horse on Third avenue. How the cyelist escaped death is a mystery only excelled by the escape of a child who was being carried on the front of the motor cycle. ~The accident took place near Dalton‘s Livery, the horse and rig coming round the corner, and the motor cyele on the other side of the road coming diagonally across and smashing full tilt into the horse. The horse‘s breast was cut a little, but apart from this no serious injury seemed to result. _ Only providence and the efforts of the driver saved the motorist and the youngster from being smashed when the horse reared up at the unusual _ impact. _ Bystanders seemed to think that the motorist was travelling too fast and that his diaâ€" gonal cut across the road caused the collision.‘‘ In any case the motor cyelist should not have been carrying youngsters the way this one did on Speaking of police court cases, one man was charged ten years ago by the Provincial officer here with illegally having liquor in a public place. When he was asked if he were guilty or innocent, he said the he did not know. A lawyer entered a plea of not guilty for the accused, and when the latter was asked any question his inâ€" variable answer was, ‘*I don‘t know."‘ Eventually the lad was asked if he knew what whiskey was. *‘*I don‘t know,"‘‘ he promptly answered.â€" The case was dismissed, the magistrate when questioning his own mind on what he thought of the case, replying apparently, ‘*I don‘t know."‘ Timmins Fuel Co. Acting Chief M. Salley and Conâ€" stable M. Greer, who were the police foree in Timmins ten years ago, had a large list of cases each week. â€" One of their specialties was the capture of alien enemies who failed to report as required by law. ‘‘We are going to try to do our best here at home just as the boys overseas are doing,‘‘ the officers said on one oceasion. This week ten years ago they had half a dozen aliens who had never regisâ€" tered or reported. One of them was a Bulgarian who had worked for several months in a munition factory and had also travelled around the proâ€" vince a lot. J. M.

BEST PRICES BEST QUALITY TODAY In the issue of The Advance of August 8th, 1917, there was extended reference to the big convention held in the arena at Toronto and attended by over 5000 delegates from all parts of Ontario and all parties in the Doâ€" minion. It was called the ‘‘Winâ€"theâ€" War Convention,"‘‘ and it was a most enthusiastic event. . Amalgamation of the political parties during the war, and the enforeing of eonseription were the two questions most strongly approved by the convention. In his address to the convention, Hon. Hugh (GGuthrie pointed out that there was no patriotic use of political parties at this particular time. Those who were opposed to Canada and to (Canada‘s part in the war were banding together, irrespective of previous party labels, and he urged that all loyal men must similarly unite if the war were to be Princess Pats original ‘battalion, was recruiting in the North Land ten vyears ago for the Forestry Battalion. His headquarters were at Cobalt. 12e Pm en mm en Mn en en t mm en mm en Ten years ago the police uncovered what appeared to be an organized band of young boys who were carryâ€" ing on an almest wholesale plan of thefts. The owner of a store on Third avenue, next below the Old Emâ€" pire theatre, had been missing goods for some time and hired a man to watch the place in the late night and early morning hours. One boy was caught redâ€"handed and after a valiant battle this lad told what he knew, but he was not sure where the goods were cached. The boys had taken confecâ€" tionery, gum: cigarettes, soft drinks, tobaceo, ete., in â€" regular wholesale quantities. With the aid of one of the boys and â€"the ferreting instinet of ‘‘Buster,""‘ Chief Salley‘s little dog, the cache was located under the old bridge on Pine street, alongside of the public school grounds. The goods were cleverly concealed in the sand. The boys were brought up in the childâ€" ren‘s court. There were six of the lads, their ages ranging from 9 to 16 years. . Mr. R. Le Hvup Inspector of the Children‘s Aid Society, came up from â€" Haileybury for the case. ‘*Some of the lads concerned had been in trouble so often that the police were a little discouraged asâ€"to the effiâ€" cacy of letting them eseape each time,"‘ said The Advance in referring to the matter, ‘‘but Magistrate Atkinâ€" son and Mr. LeHeup, both had faith in the boys if they had special care and attention, and to stir this special attitude in the homes and to pay for the losses incurred by the delinquenâ€" cy of the boys, the magistrate imposed a fine and costs, amounting to $14.75. on the fathers ‘of the larger boys."‘ The boys seemed to be bright little fellows, but with too much energy and initiative and too Jlittle direction. The magistrate thought that if the fathers spent a little time with the boys, occasionally in the woodshed, perhaps, the lads would turn out the finest kind of good citizens. One of the fathers agreed with this, and comâ€" mented, as he was leavi ing the court, to the efi“ect that he 1ntended to give his lads $14.75 worth of teaching just as soon as he could get them home. [t is worth noting that these two lads never again got into any trouble here during the four or five years they reâ€" mained in Timmins. Lieut. Jack Munroe, the noted oldâ€" timer of the North Land, and one of the few surviving members of the this occasion. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Phone 533B. Stanley Ellis, who enlisted in the West, but who is well known in the camp, having been with H. N. Joy at South Poreupine some four years ago, renewed acquaintances in Timâ€" mins and South Poreupine last week. Lieut. Ellis saw much of the severe fighting of the war, and had the exâ€" perience of being wounded in eight different places at the time that he was sent to the hospital.‘‘ ‘‘Mr. L. A.

MceLaughlin to represent Timmins at the big food conservation convention called by Food Controller Hanna in Toronto. Owing to insufficient notice and inadequate advertising there were only about 30 ladies present. <Acting Mayor A. Brazeau presided very capâ€" ably, and the reports were of great interest. Mrs. Mcelnnis gave a comâ€" prehensive report of one day‘s session of the convention, while the second day‘s reprt was given in very comâ€" plete and interesting way by Mrs. Howse. _ The convention dealt with the various substitutes for wheat, the checking of improper profiteering, and. other topics allied to food conservaâ€" tion. The only organization suggestâ€" ed at the convention was a central committee in close touch with the Orâ€" ganization of Resourees Committee, and seven representatives in each military district to be on this commitâ€" tee. _A secretary was the chief officer necessary for the local work. Mrs. Howse was unanimously elected as local secretary _ Mrs. V. Woodbury emphasized the need and the effect of individual effort and the value of coâ€" operation. She pointed out that twentyâ€"five or thirty women working along the same lines could do much indeed. â€"On motion of Mrs. J. W. Faithful and Mrs. R. J. Jemmett it was decided to ask the Government to send to Timmins a demonstrator in breadâ€"making.
