DOMINION FAVOURED IN REGARD TO TOURIST TRADE According to an announcement UV HTon. Charles Stewart, Minister of the Interior, if the volummne of United States tourist travel continues to | grow at anything like its recent rate, it will be only a matter of two or three yeatrs until the amount of money. expended _ by _ Americans abroad reaches the tremendous total of nearâ€" ly a thousand million dollars a year. Lt is emphasized by this high Canaâ€" dian official that in 1926, according to figures supplied by Washington, the outlay of American tourists was about £761,000,000, or nearly twice as much as the Canadian (Government collects in tax revenues in an average year. ©Canada‘s position in relation to this trade,"‘ declares Hon. Mr. Ste â€" wart, ‘‘is one of matchless adâ€" vantage. _ Already our tourist busiâ€" ness represents a big item, the exâ€" penditures of tourists in the Dominâ€" on amounting to roughly $260,000,â€" 000 a year. And there is ample reaâ€" son to believe that this total can be doubled in the next ten years. Canaâ€" da possesses an endless variety of atâ€" tractions for holiday seekers of all kinds, plus a 4,000â€"mile frontage facâ€" ing the country which constitutes the world‘s wealthiest and largest source of tourist trade.

We promise you a surprise. â€" Jellies as good as the nameâ€" and the word "INVINCIBLE" means "the amrd the hest Ontario is getting a fair share of the tourist trade, and much of this traffic will come to the North. But Timmins and the Portupine, as well as Troquois Falls and Cochrane are likely to go shy on tourist trade until such time as the belt line of roads is completed. The belt line of roads plan would make the North doubly attractive to tourists. They would see twice as much of the North, withâ€" out â€" travelling straight â€"ahead . for hundreds of miles and then turning round and going back the identical same way. WANTS EXPLANATION IN REGARD TO ASSIGNMENT (ieorge A. MacKay, formerly prestâ€" dent of Canadian Associated Goldâ€" felds Ltd., which recently went into liquidation, recently asked shareholdâ€" ers for their proxies for the special seneral meeting called by The Cusâ€" todian for last Wednesday or any adâ€" journment thereof, or any other genâ€" eral meting of shareholders of the company that may be held during 1928. Mr. MacKay states that at a direeâ€" tors‘ meeting held March 24th, a maâ€" jority (four in number)}) elected at the meeting of March 6th, saw fit to place the company in voluntary liquidation. ‘‘Why? _ We do not know,"‘* reads the letter, and they are told the meeting is very important if they wish to retain the mine and water powers. % i i c 4 0 on es 9. Nee M We 5 §E olb ce 0o It is stated the general ereditors, amount totalling some $26,6054.89, had not asked for payment. _ The note holders were not asking for payment and a large majority were willing to take the bonds of the company proâ€" vided for at the annual meeting. Mr. MacKay says the engineer, Mr. Graves, had advised the board of directors he could and would make the mine produce and pay, in a very short time. According to a statement received by shareholders from the office of the liquidator, Canadian Associated Goldâ€" fields, Ltd., is shown to have total liabilities of $620,674.04. The liabiliâ€" ties include unsettled claims, $179,â€" 682.92; trade creditors, $26,0654.89, preferred and secured claims, $23,â€" 131.48; claims for cash payments, $1, 950, and bond indebtedness of $26,â€" 654.89.

BIRDS SHOULD RECEIVE PROTECTION IN NORTH Birds add greatly to the attracâ€" tiveness of a country as will as furâ€" nishing very necessary â€" protection from insect pests. Where there has been any wanton slaughter of birds, punishment has come in double way, â€"tha heanutv and song Oof the birds â€"the beauty and song of the birds has been lost, and in addition insect pests have hbeen freed from their natural enemies the birds and have been permitted to proceed unhamâ€" pered with their work of destruction of vegetable life. Towns and cities, as well as country places, have learnâ€" ed by bitter experience that unhappy indeed is the section without birds. The Advance has urged the protection of bird life to the limit possible, but experience here has been a little ditâ€" ferent to that in Haileybury. Here the destruction of the birds has been due chiefly to the thoughtlessness of adults. Of course, boys have on 0¢â€" casion used air guns and rifles on the birds, but the chief trouble seems to have been with older mates who find it hard to resist shooting at anything alive. In its last issue The Haileyâ€" burian has the following editorial unâ€" der the heading **Birds Should be Protected ‘‘:â€" "‘It has been brought to the noâ€" tice of The Haileyburian that there are some boys in town who are in the habit of destroying the wild life, notâ€" ably bird life, whenever opportunity offers. It is claimed that on several occasions this spring boys have been seen with small rifles shooting at and in some cases killing the birds on the outskirts of the town. If this is the case, it is a practice that should be stopped if possible. The birds in this district are all too searcee, owing, perâ€" haps, to the fires which have swept the country in the past. That bird life is of great benefit has been provâ€" ed time and again. That boys can be taught a love of nature and a kindâ€" ness to all animal life is also true beâ€" yond question and in the case of birds, the lessons should be impressed on their youthful minds in the interâ€" ests of the public. It is to be hoped that there will be no further shooting either in town or the surrounding country and that the boys who have been guilty will be taught to be sportsmen without needless sacritice of animal life."‘ Hillâ€"Clarkâ€"Francis, Ltd. «â€"â€" Timmins, Ont.

According to Mr. Hammell, the prospecting of the N. A. M. E. will be taken into new areas by fast cabin planes in a few hours instead of severâ€" al weeks. They will be kept well supâ€" plied with foods, tools, explosives and contact established with skilled enâ€" gineers and geologists who will be flown to the properties later in large transport planes. _ The small planes are to be the ‘‘prospectors taxicah in the and the bigger planes will solve the problem of large transportaâ€" tion of men in numbers, supplies, in bulk and machinery of considerable capacity. More than 1,000,000 square miles of virgin territory in Northern Canada will be explored by two hundred or more prospectors who are to be sent into this territory in aireraft accordâ€" ing to an announcement made at New York by the Northern Aerial Minerals Exploration Limited of Canada. John E. Hammell, president and managing director of the company which will operate seventeen aeroâ€" planes equipped with skiis for rougi landing on snow and ice and ponâ€" toons for summer work on the northâ€" ern lakes, recently arrived at New Yorsk to purchase additional aircralt equipment. _ Hammell, although 51 years old and reported to be a milâ€" lionaire, is learning to fly and expects to have his pilot‘s license within a few months. adand *A are inaccessible regions never before touched by the foot of the white man that are as rich in minâ€" eral deposits as the famous trails blazed to California and the far reaches of the Yukon,‘‘ said Mr. Hemmell, only way to prosâ€" pect in these regions, carrying enough supplies to sustain the exploration party, is by aeroplanes. The days of hardship, starvation and death which followed the opening of other famous gold coasts, will be a thing of the past.‘‘ YOUNG MAN DROWNED ABOUT NINE MILE FROM MONTEITH A despatches Jlast week from Coâ€" ibalt says that Francis @Gremier, a young man, whose home was at V al Gagne, was drowned in the Poreupine river, about nine miles from Monteith, when he went to get his axe and slipâ€" ped off a log into the flooded stream, according to information â€"reaching Inspector W.

GROWING A New Liskeard correspondent last week writes :â€" ‘"Further evidence of the expandâ€" ing business of the Temiskaming Teleâ€" phone,Co., in the North was given this week in the completion of the eable between Cobalt and Haileybury, the finish of which work will enable the iong distance calls north from here as far as Kirkland Lake to be handâ€" ied by the company without the imâ€" tervention of the T.

Copper wire alone for this job cost $35,000, and the lines are now in use from Kirkland Lake to Engleâ€" hart, New Liskeard and Haileybury. The Temiskaming company _ now owns all of the telephone systems in the North with the exception of those at Cochrane and Iroquois Falls. The latter is the property of the Abitibi Power and Paper Co., while at Cochâ€" rane the system is owned by the Pubâ€" lice Utilities Commission. Negotiaâ€" tions for its purchase by the comâ€" pany have been commenced, but these have not been concluded.
