But in conversation with a friend I was told that Mr. Ennis had even in the early days pinned his faith in the McIntyre Mine, and in spite of difficulty‘ and discouragement enough to disheartenthe average man, cour- ageously continued .his endeavours to make the mine, with what results we and all the world know toâ€"day, even if the world is ignOrant of the princi- pal human factor in bringing the mine to its present position. And so, com- rades, we are more than fortunate in having a gentleman 'of undoubted courage and ability, a real pioneer of this North Land, associated with us in'our endeavours to help the other fellow-421’s Mr. Neame so aptly terms it.

Yours truly, R. J. Ennis. ‘ This kind of letter makes cheerful reading to me and many other Legion enthusiasts. It indisputably anda un- deniably indicates the fact that we have kept and still retain the confio dence of the preâ€"eminent men of this district.

Dear Sir: In VleW of the fact that ourmelief fund is gettingperilou-sly ,low, we feel it imperatively necessary-to take steps to augment the said fund, and respect- fully request permission to hold a ba- zaar, the admission tickets for which will entitle the holder to participate in. a raffle for prizes, none of which By' instruction of the Executive Committee the following letter was written to the Mayor of Ti-mmins, our very real friend and honorary mem-‘ herâ€"5E.

TIMMINS, ONTARIO will exceed $50.00 in value. I attach a letter received. from the Deputy At- torney-General, Pruvince of Ontario, and all the conditibns quoted will be rigidly adhered to in connection with the proposed bazaar. May I also mlease point out that it is prOposed to put on sale, at' the bazaar, articles made by the veteraft shops, where disabled eat-service men are almost solely- employed. I should be glad to furnish any particulars with regard to the uses and distribution of our relief fund, ‘if so desired, but I believe that I am correct in stating that there are members of the Town Council who know of cases we have relieved, as also does the Town Relief Officer. $158.45 has been ‘distributed in relief work since February lst, 1928, and the total of relief since our formation last year now amounts to $336.46. Not included in the above total is the expense incurred in the handling of pension cdSes, the securing of winter relief for the sick and unemployed veterans who are or who have been pensioners, and the eflorts made to provide or obtain employment for ex- service men. I would like to point out that in all the above classes of work the Legion in Timmins is not confining their efforts to legionnaires, but include all ex-service men and their dependents. -. Respectfully yours, Thomas Fellows. V The reply received on March” 10th,. reads as follows zâ€"Thomas Fellows, Esq. Dear Sir: In compliance with your request in letter dated the 5th inst., permission is hereby granted to rafi‘le articles of less than fifty dollars ($50.00) value, provided said 1affle is conducted strictly according to pro- yision-s of the criminal code. I t1 ust your bazaar will be‘ of a great suc- cess and not only pro1ide you with money for wo1 thy 1elief work, but al- S0 assist in the disposing of articles manufactured by disabled veterans, thereby carrying on two good works at the same time. Yours vely truly, E. L. Longmore, mayor. In answer to an enquiry of this Post, an important communication embodied in a. letter too long for pub- lication has been received from Pro- vincial headquarters relative to the disposal of the ICanteen Funds in the Province of Ontario. This mat- ter of the Canteen Funds has al- way-s been watched by almost every ex-sevice man, and needless to say the Legion of Timmins is fully aware of our responsibilities in this matter, and so long as we possess a “live’ ’ Ebranch here every legionnaire in the first place, and every ex-service man, to- gether with their dependents, are as- sured that their interests will he look- édi after imthis most important matter. This is only one of the matters that make the Legion in Timmins an ab- solute necessity, so those outside please come in and ’help’ usâ€"we need allâ€" for the stronger our organiza- tion the stronger our claims on that fund will be, and it must be remem- bered that in the past the just claims of the veterans of the North Land haveâ€"to put it mildlyâ€"been somewhat cold-shouldered. But never again while we have a pen to wield, and there are other and more able ‘pen pushers’ among the Mae’s around here who will give us unqualified sup-- port for any just claim that we put forward for participation in this and other funds for and on behalf of the North Land’s veterans and their de- pendents.

I‘Many Pleasing Nbvelties at Enjoyable Event in Hollinger Hall Satur- - day Night. - mam MEN’S mm M mmsmnt 50mm mun the Hollinger Recreation hall on Sat- urday last by the Lancashire Club was a great success. The evening was full of novelties of much interest and that afforded much pleasure and amuse- ment. One of these was the “My- stery Man” dance for ladies only. In, this dance, one man had pinned on the inside of his coat a badge well- hidden from sight showing that he was the “Mystery Man.” He had to dance with a diiferent partner each dance, and the game was to. guess as to,who this “mystery man might be. At 11 o’clock a halt was callâ€" ed in the dancing and out 30f a hun- dred guesses the “mystery man” was only named once, the winning guess being made by Mrs. W. .Gibson. Mr. E. Brennan wasthe “mystery man.” There was also a lucky number dance that proved specially amusing. When: there were only two tickets left, there were eight couples on the floor. Two youngsters among the group of eight maintained that their number had not been called, and when the winners were finally selected they were proveu right, being adjudged the winners and receiving the prizes amid much laughter and applause. They were Master Les. Kitcher and Miss Tomlin- son. Another novelty was an ankle competition for Lancashire ladies only About 15 took part in this contest, and the orchestra was brought up to judge. Mrs. W. Gibson was the win- ner. The rest of the ladies received various sized boxes with salt and pep- per shakers in them. There was dancing in the moonlight, a streamer dance, and the usual foxtrots and waltzes. Tommy Stephens and his orchestra furnished the best of music for the evening. The “refreshments were up to the usual high standard in quantity and quality. It was a bigl night, and thoroughly enjoyed by all.s The bachelors of the elu‘h. are now go- ing out to try to beat it.
