Severt Timmins ball on the committee; Mr. J. Gorman represents lacrosse; Mr. J. K. Moore, president of the Timmins football club, represents football." Ten years ago The Advance made reference to the conference between the mines and the workers and others in regard to the high cost of living, which was the big problem of that time, especially in the town of Tim- mins. At a meeting held at the McIn- tyre Porcupine offices on July 11th, the Hellinger. McIntyre. Dome, Davidson and Porcupine Crown were represent- ed, while Messrs Hawley and Muskett represented the workers. It was de- cided to hold a more representative meeting on the following Friday at the Hollinger. The committee was to in- clude four from the Hoilinger staff. three from the McIntyre. three from the Dome. and one each from the Da- vidson and the Porcupine Crown. The following were the men chosen to re- present the workerszâ€"Hollinger, P. A. Macaulay. A. Perreault, Harry Webb, L. S. Newton: McIntyre. J. R. Hawley (chairman). J. S. Muskett, Wm. DeFeu; Dome, G. Frank. John Orde (secretary). Edward Gallai; Davidson. Mark Daley: Porcupine Crown. Wiley Blinkhorn. In the Orange parade at New Lis- keard ten years ago. Timmins L.O.L. and the Timmlns O.Y.B.. in charge of Bro. W. McHugh and Bro. Percy Craig, W.M.. respectively, won special atten- tion. the O.Y.B. also winning thlrc place in the parade for dress and ap- pearance. There were 23 lodges all told in the parade. The following was the list of Contin- uation School promotions for 1919, as forwarded by Miss Mona Brown. prinw cipal of the Timmins Continuation school. who was then at her home in New Liskeaqi for the vaaction period: â€"â€" Form I to IIâ€"Honoursâ€"Merle Tod- hunter. Ellen Hakala. Hildreth Auer. Passâ€"Edie Simms. Ruby Hawley and Charles Jemmett. The latter name marked with a star to indicate that Charlie had made the total but had failed in Latin and French. At the regular council meeting ten years ago the town tax rate was set at 36 mills for public school and 37 for separate school supporters. The pre- vious year the rate was one mill less. The debenture and general rate for 1919 was 17 mills. At the same council meeting a by-law was passed appoint- ing Messrs Sutcliffe and Neelands as town engineers in charge of the con- struction of the waterworks extensions and the sewers. the engineers to receive 8 per cent. of. the contract price as their fees, this percentage to cover all the work done by the engineers previous to the by-law in regard to making or- plans. specifications. etc. The council unanimously passed a resolution ex- pressing the deep appreciation of the town for the noble services of Sister Gregory. who was in charge of the hos- pital work at the time of the influenza !epidemic. and the clerk was instructed 'to procure some suitable gift to be given as a token of the town' 3 gratitude :for the services so unselfishly given. The other nurses and sisters, who had given such timely and unselfish ser- vices were all suitably recognized pre- viously by the council. The town !building by- law was again discussed, but no direct action taken. One item from the report of the council meeting is of such timely interest at the pres- ent moment when effort is being made .to secure a deed for the cemetery pro- perty. that the item. i3; reproduced therewith verbatim:-â€" “As there had been several requests for a more conâ€" Pveniently located public cemetery. the clerk was authorized to take up the matter with Rev. Fr. Theriault with a view to securing ground for a cemetery *near the Timmins R..C cemetery." The clearing of certain lands to the inorth of the town was brought to the E attention of the council by a communi- ;cation read by the clerk. The land referred to should have been cleared according to law before May 15th. The chm fife ranger haq {mowed the necessary procedure in the matter and pointed out how after due notice the town could proceed to clear up the land. collecting the costs from the township. the latter in tum making the THE PORCUPI-NE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO [and exploded with the result that the i flames soon enveloped Mrs. McChesney. §Mr. McChesney, fortunately, was near land almost immediately had the flames {extinguished by the prompt use of {some water nearby. Mrs. McChesney. ihowever, was badly burned about the ichest. arms and legs. but under skilful lmedical attention made good progress i to recovery. l The body of an infant was found lnear the shaft of the Moneta mine ten ‘years ago. The body had been apparâ€" ently buried in a trench. though not (covered to much depth. Then dogs ‘had evidently come along and scraped Iaway the earth. leaving the body ex- lposed. The body was badly decompos- led. Mr. R. Allen was foreman of the jury empanelled to enquire into the death. and The Advance noted at the time that Mr. Allen took an unusually keen interest in the proceedings. This was the second infant‘s body to be .found in Moneta inside of a few months. In February the dead body of an infant boy was found in a vacant house in Moneta and through the good work of Mrs. R. Allen the mystery of this case was generally considered as unravelled. “At Schumacher last week," said The Advance ten years ago, “there was an interesting and keenly-contested game of baseball between the married ladies and single ladies. both teams being in the best of condition and putting up a really good line of ball. Only five in- nings were played. the score at the end of that time being 10 to 9. the married ladies winning the game. but the close- ness of the score indicating the fact that the single ladies held up their end of the game in good fashion. The spec- tators pronounced the game as one of the best of the season. For the marri- ed ladies the team waszâ€"Mrs. Parker, pitcher; Mrs Caverley catcher, Mrs. Goodheart first base; Mrs. Curtis se- cond base; Mrs. Brown, s..;s Mrs. Cur- tis, 3b.; Mrs. Monagban. l.f.; Mrs. Henderson, r.f.; Mrs. Archambault, c.1’. The single ladies had the following team in order as named: â€"Miss Plaunt Miss Bergeron, Miss Hogg, Miss Good- heart, Miss Hawley. Miss Little, Miss Counsineau, Miss Marcotte. Miss My- ers." At the township of Tisdale meeting ten years ago additional hose was pur- chased for the fire department. The council on resolution decided that “this council as a whole form itself into a committee for the purpose of investi- gating the corporation books, etc. and arrange for any improvements and corrections necessary, the meeting to be held on Monday. July 30th." On the suggestion of Councillor D. Mackie, the chief of police was authorized to secure a special officer for duty when and where required." Ten years ago The Advance made extended reference to the free special courses at Monteith for giris, as provid- ed under the auspices of the Ontario Government. The Advance noted ten years ago the opening of a secretarial omce on Bruce avenue. opposite the King George Hotel. South Porcupine. by W. H. Wil- son. Justice of the Peace. etc.. who spe- cialized in typewriting. affidavits. mar- In a snappy and interesting game of baseball at Schumacher the single men won from the married men with a 13 to 11 score. "The Geo. Taylor Hardware. Limited. with stores now at New Liskeard, Co- balt and Cochrane. is opening up here in the Brazeau building with large stocks of house and shelf hardware," said The Advance ten years ago. J. Perreault was the manager announced for the new branch. The thirteenth of July was an un- lucky date for the Hollinger baseball team in the town league. the Firemen defpating them 15 to 11. For the H01â€" linger. Bob Carmichael pitched good ball until the seventh innings when he was relieved by McIntyre, after Bob had been struck on the knee by a ball. The new catcher for the Hoilin- ger was another McIntyre whom The Advance said “proved a decided ac- quisition to the game." D. McInnis and Lefty Farr were the pitchers for the Firemen. A. series ten years ago 'I‘immins won from Iroquois Falls. In the report of the game The Advance made special reference to Slim Hallowell, Jimmy Staples. Twaddle. Bill Field and Jack White. for Timmins. The Falls team was referred to as playing a nice com- bination game. with Sid Fearn making many brave saves in goal. At a largely attended and keenly- contested football match in the N.O.F. tinge licenses, hunting and trapping licenses. etc. The following interesting paragraph is from The Advance of ten years ago: “Sergt. Theo. Turner. of Salem, Illinois. who spent 21 months in France with the United States army, is visiting in town. While on active service he saw a letter from Miss Campeau to one of her relatives at the front and wrote her asking her to adOpt them as a soldier godson. so that she might also write to him. While in the trenches this soldier was cheered by bright let- ters from this Canadian young lady. who also remembered him with parcels that were much appreciated. When he returned home from the war he decided to come up to Timmins and see for himself the kindly correspondent. who had done so much to cheer the weary days overseas." A lengthy report was given in The Advance ten years ago of a banquet given by the Timmins Football Club to the Iroquois Falls club. There was a very happy time. with a remarkable numbers. Among the local and in The Advance ten year followingzâ€"“Mr. Jas. ‘ known in the district a blacksmith and mechan I”A little more excitement was created llast Wednesday by the bush fires in .the district.
