A warning to this effect was issued by R. H. Stafford, manager of the North Bay branch of the Hydroâ€" Electric Power Commission. Low water is the cause, and unless weather condiâ€" tions change North Bay will soon be without power. The Hydro has reseryvâ€" { edzmflicientt,oca.x'x'ycmat.presentcon-I sumption for a period of three weeks. To conserve power, streets lights will be turned off until the situation imâ€"| proves. The city will also place one of } its auxiliary gas pumps in operation at | the pumping station to conserve a big; part of the power consumed in that way. Application has also been made to the railways to coâ€"operate by conâ€" serving all the pewer possible and a direct appeal will be made to the busiâ€" | ness houses and householders by Mayor | Banner and the Hydro Commission to the situation by saving power in every way possible. Renfrew and some other towns in the province are | suffering from a similar power shortâ€" | age and it is certain that unless weathâ€" j er conditions change the towns and | cities referred to will suffer serious inâ€" ‘ convenience and damage. A prolonged thaw would help a great deal. Such a thaw is promised by some prophets of | the weather but not to occur until well on in January. In the meantime thel situation for North Bay, Renfrew and , other cities and towns in not a very favourable one. Fortunately in this | North Land no power shortage is probâ€" able. The North Land, thanks to the power company, has never suffered from a power shortage and under presâ€" ent plants and conduct of affairs is | not likely to be inconvenienced in thei | matter of power no matter what the weather may be like, Lake Temiskaming was frozen over this season on Dec. 8th, which is perâ€" haps a little earlier than the average. § Mixed Nuts....... 21¢ ; According to word from North Bay this week a serious shortage of power is threatened in the North Bay disâ€" North Bay May Soon be Without Electric Power Thursday, Dec. 26th, 1929 FEATHERSTRIP COCOANUT For Cakes, Puddings, etc. Glassine, pkgs., per i1 Ib.....

The Dirtator, Bro. A.

The Moose Lodge memâ€" bers are specially interested in work for child welfare as is shown by the proâ€" visions the Order itself has made for caring for the fatherless and assisting children of members to recaive garse and attenition and opportunity for eduâ€" cation. On invitation of the Lodge, G. A. Macdonald, president of the Disâ€" trict of Cochrane Childrem‘s Aid Soâ€" ciety, talked to the members on the work of the Children‘s Aid Society and of the C.A.S| Shelter. After a humorâ€" ous opening, the president of the Disâ€" trict CA.S. took the opportunity to thank the members of the Timmins Moose Lodge who had so skilfully and generously reâ€"decorated the ground filoor of the Shelter during the past week. The work of painiting and varâ€" nishing had been well done by the gentlemen of the Moose who had kindâ€" ly volunteered for this service, and in addition the CA.S. was particularly grateful for the spirit of helpfulness and interest ‘that had prompted this work. Referring to the battles of the‘ past to secure "Rights for Men" and. "Rights for Women," both of which centred round the franchise, the speakâ€" er said that toâ€"day this, the Children's!

In 1928 the District of Cochâ€" rane CAS. had spent $600.00 to give hospital treatment to sick and crippled children. This year about $400.00 had been spent this way and 14 children had been assisted in the lins of hosâ€" pital treatment and medical attention. Mention was made of the great work of J. J. Kelso, of Toronto, superintendâ€" ent of the Children‘s Aid Societies in whose life had been devoted to the advancement of the cause of the children. Quotations were made from the annual report of the superintendâ€" ent of the CAS. for the district of Cochrane to show the valuable work ascomplished during the past year. There had been 269 investigations, with 861 children involved; 29 children had been made wards; 13 returned to their parents; 28 placed in foster homes; there was an average of 28 children in the Shelter; in the case of 27 children ralief had been given without the youngsters being made wards or removâ€" ed from thsir homes; in the case of 448 children~home conditions had been so improved that there was no need to lake: the youngsters away. _ Special praise Was given the work of the local superintendent, A. G. Carson, who was untiring in his efforts for the children. Figures were quoted to show the exâ€" toris of his work, these including the fact that he had had no less thin 457 office interviews, had travelled 12,453 miles, and written 1500 letters in adâ€" diticn to literally hundreds of visits to homes, as well as regular attendance at all juvenile courts in the district, The speaker concluded by wishing all present the compliments of the season. After Dictator Odgers had expressed Age, a still more important battle was being waged, â€"the battle for the "Rights of Children." Had the men lost their battle, the aristocrats might have carried on, and while the world could have been poorer, it would still have carried on. * the same way the bxitle of the women might have been lost without disaster. But the day‘s |\ battle for the rights of the children must be won to save immeasurable loss | and damage to the world‘s progress, ' for on the children of toâ€"day depended ‘tche welfare of the world toâ€"morrow. By quotations, it was shown that the righ‘s of children might be summarizâ€" ed as the right to be born, the right to be woellâ€"born, the right to live and the !right to play. To these was added the right to live well and the right to be loved. Unless children were born the nation must die. Unless the children were wellâ€"born the child and the naâ€" tion must suffer. The child born in | poverty and degradation had no chance from the start and the nation that so Iwronged its coming citizens would pay a heavy penalty in the days to come. Every child had the right to decent care, proper focd and clothing, ample shelter, sufficient moral training, a fair education and a proper chance in life. It was good business for a nation to give its future citizens this equipment to meet the battle of life. The rizht to play and the right to be loved woare 'equa.lly necessary for the ,of the child physically, morally and menkally. This was the work that tbe Children‘s Aid Society tried to carr; omn. A brief history of the Children’s Aid movement in Canada and the United States was given, indicating the need there had been and that there still was for the betterment of the chances of children for right living and good training. The Children‘s Aid Society sought to improve improper homes so that they might be suitta,ble: for the children. If the home could nmot be improved, the child was transâ€" ferred to a foster home where he or she would have a proper chance in life. Children are trained in the Shelters so that they mhy beiacceptable in good fosâ€" ter homes. Reference was made to the invaluable work of Mrs. Condie, the matron at the Shelter here, who had a genius for the training and care of children and setting them on the right road to useful and creditable citizenâ€" ship. The C.A.S. also looks after sick and crippled children, cares for orâ€" phans and deserted children, and otherâ€" wise helps youngsters to a better chance the appreciation of the lodge, the visiâ€" tor withdrew, and the work of the Orâ€" der was resumed. After the comclusion of the lodge the members enjoyed a tasty lunch prepared for the occasion RECIPE FOR SPONGE CAKE BY HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN All have read that Queen Mary is a good cook, but most have passed by the information and thought of her more as a ruler, a mother of a family, and a woman fulfilling social duties. Since last year, when King George was ill, occasional bits of news reachâ€" ed outside that the queen prepared his trays and special dishes for him when he was able to take nourishment. Then people began to realize that the newsâ€" paper accounts of Quen Mary always beinz interested in the kitchen of her home were true. Now there comes the Queen‘s reâ€" sipe for her favourite sponge cake, as given by Evelyn Graham in the Cosmoâ€" politan. It is:â€" 3 eggss (whites beaten separately) wWeight of 3 ezzs in powdered sugar wonty minutes to half an hour. Gas should be very low. Tesi with skewer and if the latter is clean when taken cut, the cake is don2. olitan.

Jay, Timmins, has arrived in e city to spend Christmas with her rents, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Elston, News has reached town that two of last year‘s baseball players of the Mcâ€" Intyre team will go to Tarpon Springs, Florida, next March. One is Frank Hewitt, a shortstop, and the other is Alfred Noble, a pitcher. Both were reguâ€" lar players in Manager Solomon‘s team lass year and although this most able manager has ben hit hard again for players, it is to be hoped that he will be able to provide the camp with good ball again this coming season, as h had done in the past years. Hewitt and Noble will be on trial with the Toâ€" ronto Leafs and all the baseball fans from the North will wish them well. The Schumacher public school broke up for their Christmas holidays on Friâ€" day last, when all the children had their usual Christmas presents distriâ€" buted to them from the Christmas tree. These presents and candy are provided each year by the kind generosity of Mr. Schumacher who surely looks after the interest of the young school children of Schumacher. Over 400 presents and 400 bottles of candy were distributed on Friday last. After the distribution of presents to the children, the principal, Mr, A., F. Boyce, was presented by the teachers with a Parker Doufold pen. After the closing of the school the teachers left for their respective homes where they will spend their Christmas vacation with their friends. The school was opened on Friday from 8 to 10 p.m. to the public for their inspection and each class room was well decorated for Christmas. School will resume again on Monday, January 6th, 1930. A very interesting concert was given by the Sunday School children of the United Church, on Friday last which was well attended. The children all has a real thrill when Santa Claus apâ€" peared on the scene with his sleigh and dogs. Santa Claus was in the perâ€" son .of Mr. D. Cotcher. Mrs. James and little daughter arâ€" rived in camp last week from Cornwall, England, to take up residence with her husband. Mr. and Mrs. James have taken up residence at 84 Second avenue Mr. Jack Barron, of First avenue, is visiting his home and renewing acâ€" quaintances in town. Mr. Happy Woods has returned back to town to spend Christmas with his friends. Mr. W. J. Corin, a popular young man of the town,, left on Sunday for Detroit where he will join his relatives. Mr. Corin has been in the camp for about three years and during that time he has been a good lawâ€"abiding citiâ€" zen and has made numerous friends. He was a popular member of the Young People‘s Club, also an active member of the United Church choir, and the newly formed male quartetts, and all wish him good luck in his new venture. The young people‘s club of the Unâ€" ited church held their Christmas social last Wednesday. The social opened with the chorus, "O Canada," which was well sung by the moderate crowd present. Following Mr. Frank Spragge of Timmins, most pleasingly rendered a pianoforte solo, which was followed by a violin solo from the wellâ€"known artist, Mr. Jack Phillips, of Schuâ€" macher. The president, Mr. D Greer, then spoke a few wellâ€"chosen words which were well received. This was followed by a wellâ€"prepared supper put up by the young people. The proâ€" gramme was then continued with the assistance of Mr. Spragge at the piano. The artists were Mr. Jack Phillips, vioâ€" lin solo; Mr. C. Roberts, a vocal solo; Mrs. Calverley and Mrs. Docking, a duet; Mr. and Mrs. Roberts, a duet. All were most ably rendered and well received. The most interesting feature of the evening was that of exchanging presents. A greatâ€"deal of interest and excitement was caused by the distribuâ€" tion of the Young People‘s presents. The programme was interrupted occasâ€" sionally by a ncvelty of games which caused a great deal of humour and amusement to all. Nurse T. Glazier, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. Glazier, of Firs avenue, is spending Christmas with her parents. The carol service given on Sunday last by the United Church choir and the male quartette was well attended. Some very nice carols were well rendered. They were accompanied by Mr. A. Green at the organ. In closing the evening song the minister, The Reyv. I. E. Kennedy, delivered some wellâ€" chosen words of appreciation to all the songsters. Ken Donohue, formerly of Timmins, but now of Kirkland Lake, is spending the Christmas holidays with friends in tm.
