George Taylor Hardware Limited Phone 301 10 Third Ave. Thursday, March 8th, 1928 SOUPS .. The business and professional men of Timmins are coming into the Legion in good styleâ€"the latest addition beâ€" ing that of the popular manager of Arthur E. Moysey Co., Timminsâ€" Mr. J. W. Wray. Still fresh in our memory is the magnificent generosity Che Canabian Legton in Cimmuts News and Views of Legionnaires BY THE HON. SECRETARYâ€"TREASURER of A. E. Moysey Co., in their immeâ€" diate giving of $5,000 to the town for the purpose of relief in connection with the sad calamity at the Hollinger Mine, and I am of opinion that such publicâ€"spirited action was in no small measure due to the able manager and our new member, whose modesty is such that I was totally unaware of the fact that Mr. Wray had seen acâ€" tive service in France and Flanders, so that his application for membership to our stillâ€"growing branch was enâ€" tirely unexpected but nevertheless welcome. There will be distributed at the monthly general meeting in the town hall toâ€"morrow night (Friday) about fifty copies of the ‘‘Legionary‘‘ which have kindly been sent to us for free issue. It is well worth while to be early in your attendance in order to secure a copy, for in it there is some very interesting matter. Dr. Porter has already given us good service in his new office of viceâ€" president, and to that we add also the good work, even in the past few days, he has accomplished as a member of the Relief and Investigation Commitâ€" tee an mittee. Comrade W. 0. Langdon, that able barrister and solicitor who is, we are glad to state, one of our members, goes on from triumph to. triumph. He is now president of the Timmins Board of Tradeâ€"well, all we can say is that we congratulate both him and the town. The Entertainment Comumittee are aiming high for prominent men to atâ€" tend the Vimy Banquetâ€"and why shouldn‘t they? I believe that when finally the names are given out the public will be surprised and we shall be pleased. Notices of the monthly general meeting ‘have been posted to every member of this branch, and it is earnestly hoped that all will make a special effort to attend this meeting. And, by the way, why not bring a pal who is not a member, along with you. So long as he is an exâ€"service man your pal will be welcome. Or better still, bring two. ‘‘For your pals are our pals, and the more we are togther the merrier we‘ll be"‘‘ to misquote the Frothblowers‘ Nationâ€" al Anthem. On the Legion application forms is a line for the applicant to put on serâ€" vice decorations. An application form recently received from a proâ€" minent gentleman of Timmins, who shall be nameless, but who served for THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE. TIMMINS, ONTARIO of the Entertainment Comâ€" an extended period in France, and whko is, in=identally, one of onr most enthusiattic members, was filled in, in this way: ‘‘Service Decorationsâ€"10 days in the elink.‘‘ Well, well, some people are lucky,â€"only ten days! Reverting to the first paragraph of this letter, certainly we can muster 1 good number of business and proâ€" fessional men of ‘Timmins and Schuâ€" macher in our roll of members when we iust glance at a few names such as J. E. Grassett, the genial managerâ€" of the Bank of Commerce; J. A. Sauve, of Sauve‘s Pharmaecy; W. 0. Langdon, Frank J. Kehoe, M.M.; Dr. J. E. Barry, M.C.; J. A. Caveney, Sandy Falls; John Callum, accounâ€" tant; 8. A. Caldbick, Crown Attorâ€" ney; Geo. 8. Drew, real estate and insurance; Drs. Kinsman, Harrison, Weston, Cameronâ€"Smith, M.C.; A. F. Kenning, M.L.A.; W. T. Trollope, carpenter,â€"hold enoughâ€"or I shall exhaust the space at my disposal. But really these few names (and there are many more among the business and professional men of this district who are with us) indicate that the "‘standâ€" ing‘‘ of this branch of the Legion will need some beating. Let us so ‘‘earry on‘‘ that we may continue to attract men of this type to our ranks, is the earnest wish of TICKETS FOR BOARD OF TRADE BANQUET TOâ€"NIGHT. There should be a specially large attendance at the banquet this (Thursday) evening by the Timmins Board of Trade and the Kiwanis Club to the visiting delegates of the Norâ€" thern Ontaris Associated Boards of Trade. Tickets for the event may be seâ€" cured from the president of the Timâ€" mins Board of Trade, Mr. W. 0. Langâ€" don, Gordon block, or from the seereâ€" tary of the board, Mr. J. R. Walker, Taylor Hardware Co., or at the hotel this evening before the event. CHANGE FOR BETTER IN TREATMENT OF CHILDREN The following editorial article is from a recent issue of The Sudbury Star :â€" The rights of children. How strangely those words would have sounded a century ago. In that day a parent, under the law, had a right to the child and to the services and earnings of the child, but little was said about the rights of the child and less still was said about the enâ€" forcing of such rights as might have existed in the unwritten code of the times. One of the most encouraging signs of the present age is society‘s increasâ€" ing interest in the child, the protection thrown up about the child and the definition of the rights of children, The change in public attitude toward the child followed the shift from hand manufacture to machine manufacture. The day is past when children could be worked from twelve to fourteen hours a day under deplorable condiâ€" tions and at poor wages. «p | A ..A d Certain nghts of the child are today recognized as 1n§thgn‘able oo The extraâ€"legal rights are the right to be well born, the right to a good environment and the right to parental comradeship. _ _Then there is the legal rights to an education, to play and to be protected from exploitation. | 1A C .), JJAVGAUAVATZ ARA® Many children find the propger enâ€" vironment in their own ‘home, but others must look for it in the schools, the public playgrounds, the Sunday schools and such organizatons as the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts.

McEwen Active Partners in New Firm in Camp A new firm of manufacturers‘ reâ€" presentatives has been established here, the active partners being men who have been in this North Land around twenty years and having had wide and successful experience in the line in which they are now branching out for themselves. _ The new firm will be known as the Canadian Engiâ€" neering Company, and the active partâ€" ners are Messrs H. G. Laidlaw and Eric S. McEwen. They will be repreâ€" sentatives for the manufacturers in such lines as mine and paper mill maâ€" chinery and supplies. The new firm should be a noteworthy success, as both the active partners have not only had a broad experience in the lines handled, but they have also won a name for service and satisfaction to the buying public. Myr. Eric S. McEwen has been in this district for twentyâ€"one years, and his record during that time is a very satisfactory one. He was for a conâ€" siderable time on the engineering staff of the Algoma Steel Corporation and was manager of the Sudbury.Construcâ€" tion Co. He was one of the oviginals in the Wabi Iron Works at New Lisâ€" keard, a concern that has made a name for itself in its lines in this district. Mr. MceEwen has also been on the meâ€" chanical engineering staff of the Dome and other mines, and has shown himself a ceapable and effective man in these capacities. Mr. Laidlaw is widely known through the North Land, having been in this district for nineteen years. He was with the Geo. Taylor Hardâ€" ware Co,. for fifteen years, first as salesman and later as branch manager, proving successful in both (‘apamtmq, and building up a large connection in the district. t i i Q.}sl mfl fitne sé The very key rule to health is to avoid internal sluggishness. That is where ENO‘s "Fruit Salt" has its place. ENO keeps waste and stagnation out of the blood stream. It cleanâ€" ses, purifies and invigorates. So let ENOâ€"â€" first thing every morningâ€"be your unvarying rule, just as it has been with experienced people for the past sixty years. They know that there is no substitute for 4 for as much as skill in the game. And on what does endurance depend more than on fitness and sound health ? life, as in sport, staying power counts foar as much a«s skill in the same._ And on ~ERUIT for OFFIGERG APPOINTED FOR TIMMINS BOARD OF TRADF President W.â€"O. Langdon Selects His ‘‘Cabinet‘‘ for the Ensuing Year â€" For several years past it ‘has been the custom for the annual meeting of the Timmins Board of Trade to elect the president foxr the year and then leave that officer to select his own ‘‘cabinet‘‘ or . executive council. There are many good features about such a plan. The president for the year is able to select from those takâ€" ing active interest in Board of Trade work the men who will be most likely to give time and effort during the year to the plans for the benefit of the town and support the president in the general work of the board. When Mr. T. F. King was elected president after this plan was put in forcee (he had been president before), he dividâ€" ed the ‘‘cabinet‘‘ into departments, allotting each of the executives chosen to some particular branch, thus havâ€" ing what he termed a regular ‘‘caâ€" binet‘‘ with a ‘‘minister‘‘ for each department. _ In more recent years this plan has not been carried through so far as the departments are concernâ€" ed, it being found more practical simâ€" ply to select an executive. Last week with the usual promptitude that he has displayed in looking after Board of Trade matters, Mr. W. 0. Langdon announced that personnel of the execuâ€" tive council of the Board of Trade for 1928 as follows:â€"W. Rinn, D. Ostrosâ€" ser, A. R. Harkness, S. Bucovetsky, C. G. Keddie and G. A. Macdonald. Mr. J. R. Walker is the new seereâ€" taryâ€"treasurer of the Timmins Board of Trade in succession to Mr. Langâ€" don, now president.
