MANY PUPILS ATTENDING THE NEW CONVENT AT HAILEYBURY The Northern News last week says. "The new convent, which has been constructed this past year, replacing the one destroyed in the Haileybury fire, began its course of training on Thursday of last week. The official opening of the Convent is expected to be in October and it will be known as "The Convent of the Assomption of the Blessed Virgin." After all pupiis had registered there totalled sixtyâ€"five boarders and sixty day pupils. At present the Academy teaches only to the second form of high school, but the Sisters hope to have soon sufficiâ€" ent staff to carry on the full matricuâ€" lation course."

TRADL MARX BLGISTEURLD Belt Line Would Advantage Liskeard and Other Places Belt Line of Roads Would do More Than Connect Timmins and Sudbury. It Would Be a Great Advantage for New Liskeard, Haileybury, Cobalt and the Other Towns of the North, Says Harry Preston. Some people appear to think that the proposed belt line of roads for the Norâ€" th Land will be of special benefit only to Timmins and Sudbury. This, of course, is all wrong. The proposed beit line ‘of roads will benefit all the North Land. As a matter of fact it is doubtâ€" ful if Timmins will receive any more benefit than other towns in the North. This phase of the matter is taken up by Mr. H. A. Preston in a letter written from Elk Lake last week to The New Liskeard Speaker. Mr. Preston says:â€" "Did you see the item in the North Bay Nugget of the Tth? It says that Timmins wants two strings to its bow, also New Liskeard. Quite right, they do, and why should they not have them. Either New Liskeard or Timâ€" mins are far better places to live in than North Bay ever was, because they are both right in the Meart of the land that has made many millienaires in a few years. North Bay has a highway east and west, north and south so why should Liskeard and Timmins not have the same. THE PORCUPINF ADVANCE. TIMMINS, ONTARIO "Now, as regards this road from Timâ€" mins or Kapuskasing to Sudbury, I wish to state I was the first man to get the idea, and I have done a lot of talkâ€" ing and writing about it.

I think I have travelled over this north sufficient to know what it is like and I feel pretty sure if Timmins and Sudbury are conâ€" nected with.a belt line of roads it will draw three times the American tourists, and if you in New Liskeard will just sit down and study the whole thing you will soon say that it will be a grand thing for New Liskeard. You would have a straight road right west to Wesâ€" 1 ‘tree Station on the C.NR. and all the: way, there is some of the grandest scenery in Ontario, besides hundreds of Lakes, and the highest mountains in this north,. Also the most beautiful and largest riverâ€"the Martral â€" with mountains all along its shores, and no other big rivers in these parts have such high banks to them. Second you would cut off about 40 miles if you motored to Timmins. Then think in the sumâ€" mer on Sunday or any day, you could take a trip west of Westree on to Sudâ€" bury, east to North Bay and return. Next time go to Timmins, east to Porâ€" cupine and south home.

Porcupine 40 miles west and in between these places there must be some great mines awaiting discovery. New Liskeard is in such a position if a. rush was on to Matachewan you could be there in a car in a few hours, or if it were at Gowganda or Sudbury way, you could do the same, as you have. already the road west to Elk Lake and Gowganda and here at Elk Lake, you turn North to Timmins. Now just think all this country west of you has the fingg, scenery, the highest mounâ€" tains, the greatest river, the most lakes large and small, than anywhere north of Temagami and it is WEST that we want roads built, and belt line clean around all the great Mining Camps and Paper Industries, and when it is finishâ€" ed you will see 3 times the tourists comâ€" ing to Liskeard and on the highway.

In the last issue of The Pas \Herald the following WAS the paraâ€" ‘graph referring to the matter:â€" TO BE HOPED THAT THE PLACER IS PLASTERED ALL AROUND In the column of editorial notes, "Gravel and Sandâ€"and Placer," last week The Advance had a reference to the odd way a local man mixed his words. There are others whi do simiâ€" larly. Here is a sample from the last issue of The Northern Miner:â€" J. E. Hammell, president of N.A.M.E. should get a laugh out of this one. "‘This N.A.M.E. proposition is bound to be a failure," remarked a subscriber to The Northern Miner. "How do you figure that out?" he was asked. "Well, suppose Hammell does find out what he is after, how can he operate a plaster mine near the Arctic circle at a profit?" The difference between plaster and placer is the answer. STORY OF ANDY TAYLOR TOLD IN THE LOS ANGELES TIMES "The Andy» Taylor incident seems to be closed Mrs. Taylor met him in Winnipeg last week and they returned to their home at South Porâ€" cupine. The story of his wanderings in the bush and final discovery has been syndicated for an American company and has appeared in a number of the United States papers. The Herald is in receipt of a copy of the Los Angeles Times containing the story, sent by A. H. de Tremaudan, the first editor of this paper. Whoever wrote the story seems to be lacking in imagination. There was a chance of making a wonâ€" derful story out of the event but it was condensed into a bare column and half. Mr. de Tremaudan, who had a talent that way, could have written a ibetter story himself, just from his ;knowledge of the country and his imaâ€" gination. The story is too true to be |really acceptable to the American pubâ€" lic who like their stories of the North | dished up strong." \â€" Orillia Packet and Timesâ€"Jame iSutherland of Kingston, asks the M'ul and Empire to tell its readers that there is no penitentiary at Kingston.

The Speakâ€" er says:â€" s "Two young men were on the road between New Liskeard and North Temâ€" iskaming in an auto on Monday. Sudâ€" denly they saw a large car coming down the road at a pretty fast clip. The driver of the firstâ€"named car says he got off the road as far as he could but that was not enough as his car was struck with such force as to make it turn over completely twite, and wreckâ€" ing it very badly. One of the occupants who was sitting in the front seat found himself in the back seat when he reâ€" gained consciousness. . The other car went on its way as though nothing had happened and the other fellows had no way of identifying it. These are the bare facts as given to us. Yes, it‘s a great life, but you really need to know just what the other fellow is going to do to make it safe on the highway these days. "Another friend tells us of an experâ€" ience he had on the highway near Toâ€" ronto recently. Coming north, and having some distance to go, he was travelling along at a good clip and had passed a considerable number of 25 and 30 milers. Overtaking one car which was travelling at a low rate he gave the pass signal and stepped on it to go past. However, the driver of the front car immediately crossed to the wrong side of the road, and the only way to avoid hitting him w$s for the chap beâ€" hind to immediately cut across behind and pass on the wrong side. "Still another,â€"following a fast movâ€" ing car on the highway, the front car pulls up suddenly, without warning of any kind. The result is a certain acciâ€" dent, and quite frequently the fellow at fault does the loudest squealing. Of course, he is only bluffing to cover up his own error of judgment."
