These examples of the good work of the Leâ€" gion are only a few that could be memâ€" tioned. Comreade Parsons dropped in from the Dome the other night with appiâ€" cation forms for Comrades @. M. Harâ€" ris, James Hogg, and Nicholas Anâ€" drews. Comrade Parsons will soon have made the baker‘s dozen, in very short time. He has several more in line for the beginning of 1930. Thanks, "Tom" for your efforts to boost the One of our comrades and his family were not in the best of circumstances, and the Timmins Post have helped this family considerably this winter. The Ladies Auxiliary also have helped in this case. The other day a comrade found himself in need. He had got a job down the line, and has no means of getting there. Thanks to the Timâ€" President Mrs. Maxwell, of the Ladies Auxiliary, wants the comrades to be sure and turn out on Dec. 30th for "Gentlemen‘s Night." We know the Ladies‘ Auxiliary is very capable of doing things as they should be, and We look like having another record list for initiation. The Provincial S2â€" cretary, Mr. Shields, congratulates us, and wishes the Post the best of luck so we must be going ahead. The good work of the Legion to those in need, is shown by the following:â€" Builders‘ Supplies Oe Canadian Leqion in the %flnrzupmc By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer. In conclusion I would like to thank all who have helped the Timmins Post in the past and trust in 1930, we will still have the same splendid help, and coâ€"operations. With this we can do much to make Timmins Post 88 an outstanding feature of the Canadian Legion, and that up here in the hinâ€" terlands of this great Domilnion, we can show the world, that we of the Canadian Legion can shoulder our burdens with the same vim, vigour, and vitality, as we did in the great war, and that we are ready to fight the batâ€" tle, for to live, and to help our unforâ€" tunate comrades, who may nsed help, and that we are willing to shoulder the burden, that was made for us as result of the aftermath of the Great War. Santa Claus Welcomed On Board Cunard Ship As this will be the Jlast letter before the new year I would like to ask the comrades to remember our comrades in hospital in Timmins. A visit, a kind word, will do much to help cur comrades in hospital, who cannot geot out to enjoy themselves. Irresistible Santa, Bearded and garbed in the traditional manner paid a surâ€" prise visit to scores of delighted youngâ€" sters abcard the Anchorâ€"Donaldson liner "Athenia‘" on Saturday mnight prior to departure for Europs. Heavily lcaded with toys of every description, Sari‘a Claus dispensed gifts to every bay and girl sailing in the big liner who accompanied their parents to spend the Christmas holidays in th2 Old Country. This was the last sailing of an Anchorâ€"Donaldson or Cunard vesâ€" sel from a Canadian port which will arrive in good time for yuletide festival. I‘m sure everyone will long remember the ladies "Gentlemen‘s Night" fc months t> come. A bright and prosperous New Year, to everyone is the wish of â€"The Secretaryâ€"treasurer After receiving a warm welcome from the ship‘s officers Santa vanished as mysteriously as he came leaving many delighted children behind him on the liner which lefs Halifax at midnight. Drawn from all parts of Canada and the United States, the ‘Athenia‘ carried nearly 500 passengers representing one of the largest parties of Christmas exâ€" cursicnists to sail from the winter port this year. They included innumerable narties of homeâ€"goinz Britishers. On family in fact, numbered 14 souls! Among the passengers of note was: The Hon. Vernon Cave of the C.N.R., Engineering Department of Toronto who will spend his Chris‘mas vacation in England before returning to Toronâ€" to early next year. George Allen, one of the foremost bakers in Britain who was for years chief baker for the Anchorâ€"Donaldson line, was also listed among the passenâ€" gers. After five years‘ service in Newâ€" foundiand in business for himself, he is rejoining the line to act as chief baker in the ‘Letitia‘ on her forthcomâ€" ing roundâ€"theâ€"world cruise which js scheduled to leave Naples on 17. CHILDREN, YOUNG AND OLD LIKE CHRISTMAS STORIES Nearly everything connected with Christmas has through the ages become surrounded with pretty legends. People like to think that thinzs they know can hardly be true, may be trueâ€"or at least are woven into the picture of the first Christmas or the life of Christ, and so we learn from legend that the holly had at first a white berry, but that as it was chosen as the "Crown of Thorns" its berries changed to the colour of blood. Mistletoe was considered sacred beâ€" cause its berries grow in clusters of three, being symbolic of the Trinity. Formerly bits of mistletoe were worn around the neck as a protection from witches. A maiden not fortunate enough to be caught and kissed under the mistletoe was not supposed to be married within the year. Those who caught one did not properly perform the ceremony unless he pulled a berry off after each kiss and presented it to her. As soon as the berries were gone the privilege ceased. ~ A legend in Germany is to the effect that when Eve picked the fatal apple the leaves O6f the tree shrivelled immeâ€" diately into needleâ€"like points and the brightâ€"colored leaves turned a dark, dullâ€"green, changing entirely in ap._ pearrance from the apple to the everâ€" gsreen tree. Only on Christmas with the coming of the Christâ€"child is the »urse changed to a blessing and the tree beautiful and bright with lights and gifts â€" becomes our Christmas tree. It was also a belief that oxen knelt in their stalls on Christmas eve in asdoration and for one hour had the power of speech. Strange as it may at first seem, mutâ€" ton was the only meat of which early mince pies were made, the connection being with the flocks of sheep which were watched by the shepherds of Bethlehem on Holy night, while the spices were suggestive of the Three Wise Men from the east, the land of spices.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO At present it is understcod that the Canusa Mining and Exploration Comâ€" pany is likely to reâ€"open its property m Whitney township. This properity was formerly known as the Scottishâ€" Ontario and is situated in the northâ€" west part of Whitney, not far from Porcupine station. The property has been worked to quite an extent and produced considerable gold some years ago when highâ€"grade was taken oul by work on a small scale. Las} year much active mining work was done on the Canusa with good results obâ€" tained but the operations were not carâ€" ried far enough to prove up the proâ€" perty. It is understood that the presâ€" ent plans contemplate a thorough test of the property with the purpose of proving definitely its possibilities as a mine. Those who know ithe prop:riy are of the opinion that it has the makâ€" ings of a good mine. The geological conditions and the work carried cut so far indicate the best of chances cn the property. At present it is cail that the company is completins finâ€" ancing arrangements with â€" United States interests. An entended camâ€" paign o‘ both diamond drilling and general exploration work is considerâ€" ed. Before the work was discontinues there was development carried to the 300â€"foot level and while the results from that were said to be satisfactory the prospects for still better results at depth are still more promising. The new plans for financing are reported to be ample to carry along cainpaign of exploration and develospment that will prove up this promising property. The reâ€"opening of properties like the Canâ€" usa would beâ€"greected with much ap»â€" proval in the camp, as the Canusa is one of the prospects that oldâ€"timers here believe hold promise for a good mine. GANUSA MINE LIKELY T0 REâ€"OPEN IN NFAR FUTURE Understood That Financing is Now Beâ€" ing Completed with United States Interests.

Blairmore (Alberta) Enterprise:â€"A mother on the street car with her small thirteenâ€"yearâ€"old son told the lad that if he didn‘t behave himself shel would slap him. "You just slap me, ”' he said, "and TI‘ll tell the conductm'l my real age." Today, the executive obligations of the head of a nation entail an inâ€" timate knowledge of the industries that loom so prominently in the general conditions of his country. CC Recent trips of this nature by the titular heads of the governâ€" ments of Canada, Spain and the United States of America give rise to the conjecture as to how their ering their intimates about them, took to the fields and woods in search of wild boar or slipped incognito into sequestâ€" ered inns when they wished surâ€" cease from the duties of state or opportunity to sit visâ€"aâ€"vis with their subjects.

MANAGER OF LIQUOR STORE GANNOT BF REFVE OF TEGK There was much interest here las} week in the report that Reeve Norman Evoy had been replaced as manager of the Government vendor‘s store at Kirkland Lake. in a fron page arilic‘e The Northern News makes the followâ€" ing reference to the matter:â€" Reeve Evoy, of Kirkland Lake, Had Been Told he Could Not Hold Two Positions at the One Time. "Rumors Oof the dismissal o° Reeove Norman Evoy from the positicn of manager of the Government Liquor Store here, which became current last Thursday morning, and weore confirmâ€" ed later in the day, did not come alloâ€" gether as a surprise to the citizens of Teck Township. It was generally known that Reeve Evoy held his posiâ€" tion, as manager of the store, during last year on sufferance. The Liquor Control Board having, on strong repreâ€" sentation by the Reeve‘s supporters, waived the order issued by the Board, just prior to the municipal election in December 1928, that no employee of the Board could hold public office. "When the recent election apâ€" proached it was generally expected thai in view of the Board‘s order, Mr. Evoy would cither resign‘ his position as manager of the Liquor Store, or decline to be reâ€"nominated for the Reeveship. That he did neither was a source of puzzlement to electors who gave the matter any thought, and the general question was, "Has the Liquor Control Board withdrawn its order?" Some pseople claimed that this was the case, while others were as emphatic in their claim that the Board could no>t do th‘s ami rolain the respect of the people. "Under the and beâ€" cause rumors were current that an inâ€" fluential deputation had gone, or was going, to Toronto to press for Mrtr. Evoy‘s reâ€"instatement, The News made inquiry of The Liquor,Control Board regardinz the matter, and was granted an interview by Judge J. M. McNamara. ‘"There would be no use of a deputaâ€" tion coming to see us. Norman Evoy, whom we dismissed from the mamageorâ€" ship of the Liquor Store at Kirkland Lake, committed a grave breach of the rules after being warned and his disâ€" missal stands," empha‘ically said Judge J. M. McNamara, membar ofâ€" the Liquer Control Board, to The Northern News when questioned about the disâ€" mizâ€"al and the pessibitlity of a deputaâ€" tizn azcomplishing something by interâ€" view nz the commiscioners. "Judgeo McNamara said that Evoy had been granted a special concess on to hold his position during 1929 while he was reeve of the township. When the board heard that he proposed to run for reeve for 1930 a letterâ€"was sent him saying that it would be against the rules of the board for him to hold pubâ€" lic office and retain his position and that, if he persisted in his course and was elected to the reeveship he would have to resign the post of manager. The judge said that Evoy had flouted the rules and the orders of the board and the beoeard simply could not stand for such a deliberate breach of disciâ€" pline, "An inspector is now at the liquor store, taking temporary charge, and also looking over the staff and judging their capabilities to see if any member respective prototypes would % have reacted to the spectacâ€" les of modern mass production that met the eyes and intelligâ€" ence of these modern leaders. Any guess as toâ€" what Henry VIII., ~Isabella or Washington might have thought or said must result only in the conclusion that the job of knowing how to conduct a government these days is much more of a task than in the periods so often referred to as "the good old days." o Improved transportation faciliâ€" ties have enlarged the importance of industry in all countries in its relation to agriculture and comâ€" merce since the days when governâ€" ing was more leisurely, Governing today, if it is to safeguard the inâ€" terests both of laborer and manuâ€" facturer, and if it is to recognize all the essential elements of prosâ€" perity and wellâ€"being for the naâ€" In reference to the silver jubilee _ On January 6th the ratepayers o° Rev.
