People in this district who know something more than is generally re- cognized in other sections in regard to prospecting and prospectors realise that the work of finding mines is one that Aim to Have Prospecting Designated as a Profession requires much skill and knowledge and experience. They know also that the prospector of to-day, at. least in this North Land. is of a much higher type. intellectually and otherwise, than the man “who moils for gold" in the path- etic comic sections of some serious daily newspapers. In this district there has often been question made as to why the prospector should not receive a higher standing in me mming game in which he plays the primary vital part. Apparently, in other sections of Business of Finding Mines Has Been Completely Revolu- tionized by the Advent and Common Use of the Air- plane. Emphasis Now is Placed on Organization and Equipment. All on Big Scale. Write for Mary Blake Cook Book Timmins, Ont. “And so once again the old order changeth. The lone prospector with his canoe and packsack is destined to be no longer the pioneer of hith- erto waste land in search of mineral. And the new order is the result of developments that have occurred all within the past two years. It is linked particularly with the advent of the airplane as a bold and important factor in pioneering the great open spaces and unfolding before the eyes of a mere handful of men a greater amount of territory in a single season than it would take an army of pros- pectors a life time to travel. The pros- pector looks for mineral. but mines are made. not found. . “In but few instances have the or- iginal discovery outcrops which gave the clue to the existence of the great proven mines of to-day produced the excitement that would have been justi- fied by the amount of wealth they ac- tually later revealed. In their early stages Hollinger, McIntyre. Teck Hughes and Noranda, nearly all of the. great mines of Northern Ontario and Quebec, literally went begging for capital. or at least were passed up by those who had the first chance to de- "The day is not far distant when there will be prospecting courses in the schools and universities, and prospec- tors will be trained just the same as the mining engineer. geologist, land surveyor or any other technical pro- fession." stated a prominent Ontario mining man and geologist. discussing this phase of the situation recently. actually on tapis. however, is the as- surance obtained from authoritative sources. , «.5 the North similar thoughts are stir- ring. In Sudbury recently there was discussion on the question as to whether or not prospecting should be made a regular profession. In this regard The Sudbury Star said:â€" “Now they're talking of making pros- pecting a profession. “Just what initials old timers like Ed Horne, Sandy McIntyre and Dan 0'- Connor will carry after their names has not been determined, but the question of raising professional requirements to prospect in the Province of Ontario is actually being discussed. The initials P.P. have been suggested, signifying "Professional Prospector," but owing to their application of another dignified profession they would probably not be suitable. The majority of Northern prospectors already are graduates of the oldest college in the world. the “School of hard knocks," so what the reaction will be to any further train- ing is naturally uncertain.

A. M. E. sent airplanes over dis- tances totalling more than 100,000 miles Most of this territory was virgin with as yet undetermined possibilities. Geo- logists are authority for the statement that where vegetation is sparse and rocks are visible, geological formations are more easily and more rapidly as- certained from air than on land. Con- tacts can be spotted and located as far away as two miles. Pioneering from the air to use the term applied by one of its directors is actually "reconnioter- ing" for locations. Once favourable locations are found the old time pros- pector with his pick gets in his deadly work. When a discovery is made a concentration of forces immediately takes place. Another new mining camp in the Far North would provide the incentive to such prospecting effort as has probably never before been seen. “When J. H. Hammell prephesied a year ago that the North Country would be split open for mineral, and that more would be found in a year or two with the aid of modern methods of transportation than in ten years under the old methods, he made a statement that was no idle boast. The growth of organized prospecting and the spread of the popularity of aeroplanes in pio- neering the wide open spaces of Cen- tral Canada promises to provide in- teresting chapters in histories yet to oe written. Four large companies at least besides several smaller syndicates and individual mining interests are now entering on their second year of active pioneer work in the sub-Arctic regions and in the Barren Lands surrounding Hudson Bay. The most active com~ panies in these regions, besides the Hammell organization, N.A.M.E., are the Knight Prospecting Company and Dominion Explorers, Limited. N.A.M.E. and Dominion Explorers have their own planes while the Knight Prospect- ing Company. a privately financed or- ganization, utilizes the equipment of Western Canada Airways, and Interna- tional Airways. Limited. The head of one of the prospecting companies re- ferred to stated recently that it was a a safe guess that at least 20 airplanes would be in almost constant service throughout the present summer carry- ing men or provisions to outposts in the Far North on prospecting missions. Prospecting companies do not habitu- ally divulge many details of their at- fairs, nor the destination of their par- ties. With six or eight parties in the field, Knight Prospecting Company al- though saying least. is one of the most active of the pioneering organizations Dominion Explorers, organized by Lindsley interests. are also making a strong bid for the honour of making the first big discovery in the Barren Lands. “How do these companies revolution- ize the prospecting business and in what way do their activities tend to professionalize the prospector? “The answer to this question lies in the speed with which ground can he covered by the winged explorer. In the first nine months of its Operation “So, in past years the prospector pushing his canoe up some lonely stream in the North woods had not only the problem of finding a promis- ing mineral outcrop on his hands. but he had also the job ahead of him of finding the outcrop and then finding a man with half a million dollars or so, ready to gamble it on "making a mine." To day the majority of pros- pectors are in the employ of large or- ganizations, fully equipped with all the resources necessary to explore and de- velop any promising prospects that may be found. No longer does the dis- coverer run the risk of having his dis- covery lie untouched for years while he grows old in poverty or languishes in ill health. The discovery in most cases is now purchased before it is staked and even before it is found. For wages and an interest in what he stakes. the prospector, while no longer perhaps the free roaming, romantic individual he once was, is playing a safer game to- day than ever before in history. velop them as mines. The Frood Mine. despite its great gossam showing, lay for 40 years regarded as a low grade deposit to be mined when its higher neighbours petered out, until diamond drilling revealed its hidden enrich- ment. The Errington Mine was dis- covered, more than 30 years ago, but lay idle for want of development capi- tal and if success is achieved it will be because the Bradley interests had courage to grapple with an expensive and tedious task 011 which others had either baulked or failed. The Falconâ€" bridge ore deposit has been known for many years and full details are cor- tained in the report of the Ontario Nickel Commission published in 1917. Yet it was only last year that suflicient interest was aroused in its possibilities to bring forward the capital and effort necessary to thoroughly test out its mine possibilities. 103 Z>Z< 2m: >20 UMP-ORVCW <<><m 01. m4Cfiâ€"22Q Mairâ€"5m: U_L<mm I><m Wmmz 10:29 1.0” _Z<_20_UFM UZ>ZU. .FZO .ZOFJ_2<I - Duhâ€"32:. m2mm<JUZ :wtiao z. oz< 5.22 z_ m._m_uz_>z_ M‘LARENS OLIVES “Probably the most promising field with the most favourable areas for prospecting in the Barren Lands is the west coast of Hudson Bay and while planes have ranged from the Alaska boundary to Labrador. much of the actual prospecting has taken place near Chesterfield Inlet, and for about 120 miles Inland and along the coast. In this area it is said that geological con- ditions point to possibilities of impor- tant discoveries being made and the suggestion has been offered that the Federal Government could assist mater- ially in a number of ways. “It is also stated that a steamer or some other kind of craft plying along the coast throughout the summer sea- son would'make it possible for pros- pectors to get from place to place much more easily and with greatly reduced hazard to their lives, providing the steamer maintained a defiinte schedule and made calls where prospectors could depend on making connections." "Sufficient activity has occurred in this section to warrant the governâ€" ment establishing lighthouses along the coast as a guide to prospectors and an assistance in keeping their bearings.

An interesting feature of the new set of conditions is the number of university graduates applying for posi- tions as prospectors. The chief re- quirements for life in the Barren Lands are a sturdy frame, a sound constitu- tion and sufficient stick-to-it-iveness to withstand the first onslaughts of hardships. No others but men with these, according to those recruiting for the xploration companies. need apply. “Although in its infancy. the work of exploring Canada’s north land for mineral has already reached propor- tions where it is demanding public at- tention and wherever possible govern- ment assistance should be extended to facilitate the movement of men and supplies.

Changes in Players of Hockey Teams of North In his column of “Sportology” in The North Bay Nugget. last week. “Observer“ writes:â€" “According to a report emanating from Kirkland Lake. Jimmy Jamieson. lately removed from Haileybury to the mining area, will have new material to work on when moulding next win- ter’s entries in the Northern Ontario Hockey Association. This information is to the effect that last season‘s junior and senior teams have been pretty well dismembered, in fact so badly torn apart that they will not bear any sem- blance to last year‘s representatives. After recounting the departures that have been noted since the spring. it was stated that Kirkland Lake will be again entered in the N.O.H.A.. but the per- sonnel of the teams will be changed considerably. While the identity of the new arrivals has so far remained a secret to those directly connected with the hockey interests of the community. it is known that a number of gaps were necessarily plugged up. "Art Silverthorn. R. J. Gracie and IGordie Brown will be missing from the junior squad of 1928-29. Along with these, “Sonny" Townsley of Newmar- ket fame. Ames. a net-minder. and Re- gan. of the senior squad, are listed among the departed. It is claimed that Regan has moved farther North. Possibly he will be conveniently dis- covered in Timmins or South Porcu- pine later in the year. Anyhow .it would be Kirkland Lake‘s mistake if such should happen. Townsley has return- ed south to take up residence in Strat- ford. together with Silvarthorn. while Ames. 'who is at present recuperating from injuries sustained in an accident recently. is bent on returning to Toron- to to resume studies in the School of Pharmacy. “These deflections. with the state- ment that Kirkland Lake will continue in the swim. suggest that there has been some notable changes in the population since spring."
