Higgins, of Ottawa to, help save the life of a young Indian lad from the James Bay region, In an editcrial comment on the fiight, The Ottawa Journal says:â€" "The achievement of Lieu Higgins, R.C.A.F., who brough dian boy from the James Ba: to an Ottawa hospital by airplane the other day, is one deserving of more than casual attention. Lieut. Higgins, accompanied by Sergt. S. A. Greene, his mechanic, flew their government machine from Remi Lake to Fort George. There the Indian lad, Samuel Cook, was placed on a stretcher in the cabin, and Lieut. Higgins set cut for Ottawa. At three o‘clock in the afterâ€" noon he left Fort George: at nine in the evening he brought his machine down cn the Ottawa River at Rockâ€" cliffe and the Indian was hastened to hospital where attention was given his broken leg. "The flight of 1,200 miles in twelve fAying hours was made under extremeâ€" ly trying conditions. It was over a rough and inhospitable terrain, for the most part, where a forced landing would have been a difficult proceeding. There was fog with which to contend in some areas, and blinding smoke of forest fires in others,. Storms were enâ€" countered for the greater part of the distance. But the trip was made in safety, with a skilled and courageous navigator at the controls, in order that a poor Indian boy might have a chance for life. "Canadian Government fiyers do their work so modestly that many of their most brilliant exploits are buried in the archives of their departments or given belated publicity in the blue books. There are many airmen in the service second to none in the world in resourcefulness and experience. In many parts of the Dominion they operate under conditions of unusual difficulty, by reason of unsettled counâ€" try and farâ€"scattered communities, which makes all the more creditable their contribution to the history of flight. Lieut. Higgins is emblematic of his service." Quinte Sunâ€"If a man‘s face is his fortune some of us are in debt.

The flower show here for some years past has been held on Labour Day and the success of the event each year shows that the date is a good one. The Timmins Horticulâ€" tural Show is one of the most attracâ€" tive events of the year. It not only has done much to encourage better !lawns and gardens in town, the better cultivation lhere of flowers, and the beautifying of Timmins generally, but it is also an event that will well repay attendance on its own account as a showing of fiowers and fruits and vegeâ€" tables. This year the Garden Competition will again be featured. All persons desiring to have their gardens judged for this competition should serd in their names and addresses at once to A. Parker, the secretaryâ€"treasurer of the society, 19 Laurier avenue, or P.O. Box 933, Timmins. At the end of a day‘s work, relieve nervous tension before eating.

Mr. Miner‘s idea was through the coâ€"operation of press to educate the youth to the value of bird life to the country. All newsâ€" papers have coâ€"operated fully, the reâ€" sult being that each article or stateâ€" ment has had a tremendous circulaâ€" tion, and been received so well by the public that, during the last few years, from fifty to one hundred letters would find their way daily to Jack Miner‘s post dffice box asking for reprints of these articles. Jack Miner being a poor man financially, could not afford to have reprints made, nor even acknowledge these requests. So rapidâ€" ly did these requests pile up, that upon taking the matter up with Ryerson Press, Toronto, they decided to place on the market all these articles in book form, calling the book "Jack Miner on Current Topics." Under the able supervision of Mr. E. J. Moore, of Ryerson Press, an intimate friend of the Miner family, a book has been proâ€" duced that is not only a credit to the Ryerson Press and Miner family, but will be a credit to the library of any individual. The book is handsomely bound and printed on white coated paper, the same as the first Miner book. It contains over fifty of latest photos taken on the bird sanctuary to illustrate the various articles, It reâ€" tails at $2.50, and can be purchased at any book store, or direct from Ryâ€" erson Press, Toronto, Ontario. Should a profit be derived from book the money is used to maintain the Jack Miner bird sanctuary.

COMMENDS THE FRATERNAL SPIRIT OF THE FAR NORTH In an editorial article in The Arnâ€" prior Chronicle recently, the following comment is made on a recent incident in the James Bay district:â€" "An Anglican Clergyman, away off at a mission in James Bay, found ‘seriâ€" ously ill by a Roman Catholic missionâ€" ary, nursed to partial recovery in the mission hospital by a Sister of Mercy and taken by Government plane from Fort Albany to Sudbury hospital, a distance of 450 miles in three and one half hours. What a theme for a story! It proves again that there is still a lot of the milk of human kindness in the world and that it is the same in the farâ€"off Arctic wastes as it is in the older and more populous parts of civiâ€" lization. A. E. Porsild, botanist and biological investigator, and F. H. Kittogn, D.L.S., of the Department ‘of the Interior, who have been investigating wild life matâ€" ters in the James Bay region, returned to Ottawa Saturday. The areas dealt with were Akimiski Island on the west coast of the Bay and Charlton Island on the east coast. These surveys are in connection with wild life propagation and other matâ€" ters. The investigatorss went North early in June to the end of the steel on the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway, thence by canoe down the Abitibi River to Moose Pactory. The voyaging about the Bay was done in a Perhaps away up in James | small sailing vessel with auxiliary gasâ€" older and more populous parts of civiâ€" lization. Perhaps away up in James Bay there is even a greater spirit of the Brotherhood of Man, because men must be closer to the Ideal when they are removed from avarice, envy, enâ€" mity and the craze for money and position. The same spirit of goodâ€"will, tolerance and coâ€"operation exists in the populous parts of Canada, but it is sometimes offset by degenerating agencies, politicians who keep race against race in a voteâ€"getting enterâ€" prise, printed propaganda that is vile in its hatred of people who cannot see as they do and in organizations that appear to have no other purpose than to widely separate people along racial and denominational lines and by inâ€" vective and appeals to passion keep them separated. If Canada is to have a citizenship progressive in the ideals that really make for nationhood, if her people are to be great in the proâ€" per interpretation of the term, then a lot of the means and the propaganda that are today used to keep a goodly nportion of her diverse population in a i Motor Car Drivers _ CARRY YOUR LICENSES | 40. 0 stt o s es w sc wary a>+ Ontario Department of Highways HE Highway Traffic Act requires that every person operating a motor vehicle shall secure an operator‘s or chauffeur license and shall at all times while driving carry same. A penalty is provided for failure to produce such licenses when demanded by an officer. It is necessary, owing to the number of motorâ€" ists who persist in driving without licenses, that the police be instructed to require the production of these licenses from time to time. This law has been passed in the interests of safe driving and to prevent incompetent persons from operating motor vehicles. The production of a license is the only proof of ownership of one. Carry yours at all times and avoid inconvenience and prosecution. 33 | shaft disc gineers an building a Cobalt. E besides the discover t} been take road near vawning C Dangerous Hole Under the Highway at Cobalt Word from Cobalt this week says that motorists, unaware of the danger, have driven for years over a hole 50 feet deep in the centre of the Ferguson highway south of Cobalt, which was protected only by a few half rotten poles and a layer of gravel. The hole was an abandoned mine shaft‘ discovered by Government enâ€" gineers and workmen when they were building a new road from Latchford to Cobalt. Engineers found a rock dump besides the highway but were unable to discover the mine from which it had been taken. Workmen dug up the road near the rock dump and found a vyawning chasm, six feet wide, eight feet long and 50 feet deep. The poles across the top were almost rotted through but still carried the terrific weight imposed by the heavy motor traffic. The shaft was immediâ€" ately filled with rock ballast.
