IRUUUUIS FAllS DISIRICI MUIUR BLUB’S HNE PICNIB Iroquois Falls. July 17th, 1929. Spec- ial to The Advance. One of the largest picnics ever held at Harmon Lake took place on July 14th when the first annual picnic of the Iioquois‘ Falls and District Motor Club was held There were 438 cars and approxi- mately 1500 people. The weather was ideal and the entire programme car- ried through without delay or a hitch of any kind. Mr. W. J. Tierney. of Iroquois Falls. was the official starter and fulfilled his position in the excellent way for which he is famous. Other course officials warezâ€"Mr. J. E. Patterson. Mr. Jim Brown, A. Corcoran. A. A. Sutton. J. H. Coons. A. R. Armstrong, course clerk. and Secretary F. E. Wood. chair- man of the picnic committee. Prizes were distributed by President G. J. Thistlethwaite and the traffic and parking arrangements were excel- lently handled by Messrs -'Beaveley. Morrow. Curley and Giroux of the Pro- vincial and local police forces. It is a good deal to the credit of these offiâ€" cers that the traffic and crowd were handled through the entire day withâ€" out even a minor accident. Three hundred tickets were distri- buted among the tiny children entitling them to secure an ice cream cone free. and which were redeemed in very short order. Approximately 1500 People at Picnic There Were 438 Cars. Weather Ideal for Event. Due to the generosity of the many donors listed below very excellent prizes were available ior the events. and the lucky recipients. judging by their: smiles, seemed to be very pleased. : This picnic was originally scheduledi for July 7th but owing to continuous rain on that date it was necessary to postpone it for one week. and it is= hoped that the picnic committee of the future will be equally as fortunate in weather as was experienced on the 14th The donors include Northern Elec-l tric Company. New Liskeard, Merchan- ‘ dise Department Canadian Westing-l house Company. Canadian General Electric Company. South Porcupine. Mr. T. E. Silver, National Pharmacy. Ansonville, Autoveyors.

July 20th. The kick-off will be at 6.15 pm. sharp. This should be an especially good game as both teams will be at full strength. Dome has a good team, and the same may be said' about Kirkland Lake. so it is only to be expected that the spectators will see the finest of good football in this match on the Dome grounds on Saturday of this week. No football fan should miss this feature. ASSOCIATED BOARDS mm M ENGLEHARI 0N JULY 31 mi Many Important Questions to be Before Meeting. Ansonvillt- Board of Trade Has Motion re Insurance meeting of the Associated Boards, men- tion is made of the fact that many important questions are to came before the sessions. These will include. no doubt, the matter of improved roads and more of them for the North. In this connection it might be well if special emphasis were placed on roads for settlers. Apparently this is some- thing that is being lost sight of alto- gether these days. A number from the Connaught section recently called the attention of The Advance to the fact that though they had been bona fide settlers on the land. and working as settlers. for from ten to fifteen years they were still without a road and had to pack everything in and out except for a brief time in the winter when there was a good freeze-up and lots of snow. Other sections of the country can put forward similar complaint and be well warranted in doing so. The Ansonville board of trade has a resolution submitted to come before the meeting of the Associated Boards at Englehart on the Blst in reference to the cost of fire insurance in this North Country. The resolution points out that the rates are so high as to be burden- some in some cases and prohibitive in others. The resolution asks that the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade endeavour to have the Canadian Fire Underwriters and the insurance companies operating throughout the North fix a more equitable rate for in- surance for Northern Ontario. This is a question that has been before the Associated Boards on many previous occasions but it can not be over-em- phasized as it is of vital importance not only directly to the business men but indirectly to all the rest of the pub- lic. If the Associated Boards can do anything to secure reductions in fire insurance rates a very decided benefit will be conferred for the business in- terests of the North. The resolution by the Ansonville board of trade is the only one to be received by Timmins board of trade up to the present of the many that will be considered by the Associated boards at their meeting. The others will no doubt come to hand in due COUX'SC.

Proâ€" vincial Officer Hartlieb visited the shack at once and found the note which read1â€"“Rheumatism is too much for me. So, goodbye. everybody." t was known that Bracker had suf- fered considerably with rheumatism and it. was felt that the note probably indicated that the unfortunate man in a fit of despondency and pain had taken his own life.

A systematic and thorough search was organized and about 11.30 in the morning the body was found bv two of- the party resting partly on some 3X The coroner was promntly notified of the finding of the body and after investigation and consideration of the evidence in the matter decided that a jury inquest was not necessary. It was quite evidently a case of suicide while despondent through ill-health and, per- haps, financial worries. In the shack after his death there was little of value and only 49 cents in cash in his posses- sion at the time of his death. The late Henry Bracker had been in this country about twenty years, hav- ing prospected and worked in the mines around Elk Lake. Gowganda, Porcupine and other camps. He also prospected in the Yukon. Nevada. California and British Columbia. He was naturalized in the latter province as a British sub- ject in 1909. At the time of death the late Henry Bracker was 55 years of age.
