Some months ago The Advance made reference to the agitation at Elk Lake to secure power and light for that mining camp and later the byâ€"law passed by the ratepapers was referred to in these columns. There was great desire in Elk Lake to have the lights and power, and now there is equal graâ€" tification at the speed with which the installation was made. The "pulling of the switch" to complete the actual work of providing power and light was made quite an event by the people of Elk Lake. The New Liskeard Speaker in this connection last week had the following interesting article:â€" "On Friday, August 23rd, the Northâ€" ern Ontario Power Company completâ€" ed the installation of their modern and up to date system of lighting in the thriving town of Elk Lake. Since May 1928,. when the old power dam of the Elk Lake Power Company was washed away. the town has been practically in darkness, blut owing to the sane, busiâ€" ness foresight of the Township Counâ€" cil an dvantageous and businessâ€"like proposition was put before the Power Corporation, who undertook without any financial obligation on the part of the Township, to install for the rateâ€" payers, a street and house lighting sySâ€" tem. Previous to the Council signing a contract, it was the wish of the Power Corporation, that their rates should be submitted first to the Onâ€" tario Hydro Electric Commossion, in crder that every individual subscriber should be assured of a fair deal. These rates which are the standard charge in ali towns in the North Country are exâ€" ceedingly reasonable and the surcharge of $1.00 is removeable as soon as the volume of business warrants it. The town has issued no debentures, nor asâ€" sumed any indebtedness, the Power Corporation undertaking the sole resâ€" ponsibility for the financial part of the installation. . The byâ€"law to grant a franchise to the Northern Ontario Power Company was carried by the ratepayers on April 22nd and in the surprisingly short time of less than four months, the Power Corporation, have installed their plant, erected their poles and wired the town. There are 100 street lights, with special attenâ€" tion given to the main thcroughfares and when the lights were turned on, it was universally conceded that Elk Lake will be the best lighted t«vyn in the North Country. "To the Reeve, Mr. John W. Rodie, who has worked so assiduously on beâ€" half of the town, fell the honour of pulling the switch and this was accomâ€" plished on Friday evening, August 23rd. A patform had been erected on "The Square" upon which were gathered some prominent members of the Counâ€" cil together with the representatives of the Power Corporation. The Blue Room Orchestra of New Liskeard, furnished the music and a piper played familiar tunes from the "Land of the Heather." "J. M. Goghill, mining recorder, preâ€" sided, and spoke in glowing terms of the pleasure it afforded the citizens to welcome the Power Company in associâ€" ating with them to help in the growth and progress of the community. Their interests, he said, were mutual and he looked forward to Elk Lake taking a decided step forward not that it had it was the first matter that they had taken in hand upon assuming office. It had been their desire to keep faith with the ratepayers and the Power Corporaâ€" tion had been most generous in subâ€" mitting what was a just and reasonâ€" able proposition. There has been no desire to draw a "red herring across the trail," and the action of the Council in dealing with the Northern Ontario Power Company had the approval and endorsation of the soundest electrical experts. Mr. Rodie also paid a just tribute to the excellence of the staff of 15 men who were sent to undertake the construction work. They were a credit to the Power Corporation by whom they were employed. The chairman then called on Mr. H. Day of the Publicity Department of Canada Northern Power Corporation, who spoke of the advantages to be deâ€" rived from the application of electric power both from an industrial and domestic point of view. He spoke of the willingness and desire of the Comâ€" pany to coâ€"operate with the town in advancing its interests, and mentioned the opportunity which the Company extended to the residents to become not only: customers but also shareholders under the Company‘s Customer Ownerâ€" ship plan. The officials of the Power Company present were Mr. B. V. Harrison, genâ€" eral manager; wW. S. Hallett, plant manager; W. F. B. Cadman, distribuâ€" tion engineer; R. H. Douglas, merchanâ€" dise manager; Len Wilson, operating superintendent; W. S. Blackwall of the pulp department; Harold C. Howard, manager of the customer ownership department; H. A.

We spoke of the new method of laying track on the norâ€" thern section of the Hudson Bay Railâ€" way, where rails are run right over the muskeg and the line graded later. The frost line is so close to the surface that no difficulties have presented themâ€" selves to hamper the rapid construcâ€" tion. We asked him if he thought there was any possibility of a road ever being built away up north of the Peace River, in the region Oof Great Slave Lake and Great Bear, to tap the mineral areas of the high north. "His reply was inspiring. "It is my experience," he said, "that impossible things are being done right along. I remember well when the T. N. O. Railway was proposed, how the critics howled, and how even men of experâ€" Impossible Things Now Being Done in the North considered useiess CounUlry. 1 _ bsâ€"en all over the Dominion since. I have seen railway lines projected and built which I really believed were a waste of money. The Transcontinental struck engineers, including myself, as a monumental folly. We worked on it in a sort of jocular manner, and would not have been surprised if it had been left hanging out in the wilderness to rust. And now the white elephant is earning money, and big money. "The Hudson Bay Railway is anâ€" other case in point. They talked about that road for years and years. They tried it once and left is dangling, with a rightâ€"ofâ€"way ready for the rails and used by the Indian runners and white trappers as a highway. Now they are finishing it. People are doubtful about it yet, but it will make good. "so, if someone told me toâ€"morrow DALTON FAMILY WRITE FROM QUEBEC ON THE WAY HOME Dear Friendâ€" Just landed. Had a wonderful trip.
