OE CaAaANAaADaAa, LLMNITE Board of Trade Determined to Have Successful Year There was not a large attendance at the annual meeting of the Timmins Board of Trade on Friday evening of last week, but what was lacking in hA numbers was fully made up in enthusiâ€" ‘ asm and optimism. "We have to filll the Board this year with pep, for it can do a lot of very necessary work for the advancement of the town and district," said D. Ostrosser. "I believe the next two years will be the best yet for the | Timmins district if we only are alive to our opportunities," was one of the remarks by M. Boivin. Mr. A. T. Tayâ€" lor referred to some of the possibilities for usefulness of a board of trade, inâ€" stancing cases where united and enâ€" thuslastic â€" effort _ had accomplished noteworthy benefits. Councillor P., Dougall and J. P. Burke also contriâ€" buted valuable suggestions to the genâ€" eral discussion. A big feature of the evening was the review by W. O. Langdon, president of w e e e e t the Board of Trade, of the work accomâ€" plished in 1928. This review was not only interesting but it also gave strikâ€" ing illustration of the value of a board of trade. There were eight meetings of the Board of Trade called in 1928, said Mr. Langdon, and at these meetings through the work of the officers ana executive considerable of advantage had accrued to the town and district. ‘In the early part of the year the matâ€" ter of the parking of autos had been taken up. Information had been seâ€" cured from a number of other towns as to the parking byâ€"laws in those places and the way such byâ€"laws had worked out in practice. This information had been turned over to the chief of police in the hope that it might be of service in drafting any changes necessary in parking lanes here. Another question before the Timmins Board of Trade related to a proposed plan for publicity for the North as suggested by the North Bay Board of Trade. On account of several features of the plan, and beâ€" cause it was felt that little benefit would accrue to Timmins from tourist traffic until the Belt Line of Roads was | in operation, nothing was done about | this matter, though it was given veryp| careful consideration and study. The| Board of Trade had taken action in the | matter of freight rates on Alberta coal‘ and had shown a generally sympatheâ€" tic attitude towards the whole question of the utilization of Canadian coal if practical. Mr. Langdon outlined what had been done by the Board of Trade to further the plan of establishing tourist camp for Timmins. A great deal of time had been given to this matter, and at last the Board was able to recommend an available site for a. tourist camp for Timmins. The town council had seen to the installation last year on the Canadel property of a temporary tourist camp, which was of benefit to the town in general and to automobilists visiting here in particuâ€" 1 Enthusiasm Shown at Annt bers Ready to Make 1929 Trade and Town.

Much Good Work Acâ€" ho tw ccttart The president‘s report was received and approved, and a sincere expression of appreciation and thanks tendered to him for his excellent services during the past year. The report of the finances for the ‘year was also read and adopted. The report showed the Board of Trade in satisfactory condition, there being @ number of necessary and useful °xâ€" penditures during the year, and yet a | small balance being shown on the right side of the ledger. A hearty vote of thanks and appreâ€" ciation was passed to the secretary. Miss Paice, for her very capable and | extended services to the Board. On ac-i count of the small balance left in the treasury it was impossible to give anyé salary to the secretary for the good. work done, but the recornmendm‘,ion1 was passed on to the new executive ...... ie e us on e that a honorarium should be given the secretary for the faithful and efficient work done in 1928. When the matter of the eiection officers for 1929 was taken up, W. o. Langdon was reâ€"elected president for| 1929 by acclamation. Mr. Langdon was| anxious to withdraw on the idea that) another president might be able to| arouse more interest. It was pointec out in reply that Mr. Langdon had | given services of very highest order to the work of the Board of Trade and had not been wanting in any particular. only fault to be found was that the: business men in general had failed to: give him the support and coâ€"operation : that they knew his good work well de-i served. Mr. A. T. H. Taylor was noâ€" minated by Mr. Langdon as president for 1929, but Mr. Taylor withdrew his of the election of Provincial Planes to Have Wireiess Equipment According to a despatch from Windâ€" sor, Ont., as published some days ago in the Toronte Mail and Empire, the Windsor Kamiskotia Mining and Deâ€" velopment Syndicate, Lirnited, with hoidings in the Kamiskotia field of Northern Ontario and the Duprat Township in Quebec, a concern organâ€" ized by a group of Border Cities men will commence the development of its properties in the early part of this year. The syndicate, which has been organized to act as holding company, is governed by officers and directors composed of business men of the Borâ€" der Cities. A charter was granted the syndicate by the Provincial Governâ€" i l ment in the latter part of 1928. The officers are:â€"T. P. Bennett, president; directors, Bruce Williams, William Crawford, E. Hainsworth and J. H. Gorton. W. H. Doidge is secretary and treasurer. ' Location of the two major holdings of the syndicate is to the southeast and adjacent to the Hollinger Consoliâ€" dated Gold Mining Company‘s properâ€" in the Kamiskotia field. They were staked by Mr. Bennett in 1928 and have been held by him until the organizaâ€" tion of the present concern.

Mr. Taylor was elected viceâ€"president by acclamation, and the following were elected to the executive or council of the Board of Trade:â€"P. Dougall, J. P. Burke, D. Ostrosser, M. Boivin, G. A. Macdonald, C. G. Keddie, W. Rinn, W. Nicolson. ; After the election of officers there was a general discussion on how to at=â€"| tract increased interest to the Board | of Trade and make 1929 a banner year not only for the organization but also for the town and district. There was‘ general optimism in regard to the pro-‘ C o 4 Li t 00 Ece ts * i o 217 t B t n 207. t : 2 spects of Timmins and vicinity and the belief was expressed by many that the camp is on the eve of considerable exâ€" pansion and prosperity. Consideration was given to the matâ€" ter of securing members and funds for 1929. It was generally believed that| while the minimum fee for membership | should be at least two dollars, many'l | would be able and ready to give more than that amount. Eventually it was decided for the present to issue mem-l bership tickets similar to those usecl last year. On these tickets there will be a blank space to be filled out to show the amount of the subscription | given. Several plans for the collection of the membership fees were proposed, \ but here again it was decided for the | present, at least,, to follow the plan of ‘\last year. Canvass will be made of all sections of the town by teams of two members of the Board of Trade exeâ€" cutive. The president was asked to have the town mapped off in districts and allot each district to two members of the executive. t ue N000 00 1 200000 2279 000 o 100 2 10 00 37 a h "f .

A good way to relieve the monotony of a job is to think of ways of improvyâ€" ing it. "I have been a user of Alberta Coal for _ some years and I take pleasure in recommending its use to all my friends. When you get to know how to regulate your furnace when using Alberta Coal and the proper sizes to order from your dealer, you will find that you will prefer to it any other fuel, American Anthracite included.

The young men, prompted by a desire to enjoy themselves, and to follow out the apparent purpose of a hardâ€" time dance, garbed themselves in regular hobo costume aAs: "Three Jolly Good Bums," but though the only real "hard times" masqueraders at the dance they did not appear to make a hit. At the station they were greeted by:â€""Oh, there are three more hobo kings come to Timmins!" It is a pity |that these three good fellows should have found themselves not very popuâ€" lar, but the reason no doubt was the disgust felt at the attempt made last week by a fellow claiming to be a proâ€" fessional hobo to secure notoriety. Sensible people resented the idea of being expected to appear as approving and applauding in nonsensical way the theory of tramps and bums and hoboes. The three young men were unfortunate in getting a sort of reaction from the general irritation caused by the imâ€" ported nonsense of the same week. It will be some time before many peopre here will be able to see a hobo without feeling hot under the collar at the inâ€" sulting suggestion that decent people should lionize anyone claiming to his way through life, though enjoying apâ€" parent health and strength. HIS MAJESTY‘S HEALTH CONTINUES TO IMPROVE Cables from overseas snow that the health of His Majesty King George continues to improve. It is intended‘ to take him away for a change to a warmer climate at an early date so as to further speed up his recovery. The keen interest maintainedâ€" in all parts of the Empire in the health of the King indicates the sincere loyalty to the throne and the King that is held by the vast majority of the people of the Empire. Until his serious illness the people themselves did not realize how deep and how personal was the feeling of loyalty. Arguments are a large part of busiâ€" ness waste, particularly when they reâ€" fer to small subjects.
