thoughtless or criminal enough to sell cigarettes to boys. In Orillia smoking among school children has become very common and R. B. Atlee, the school atâ€" tendence officer there, announces that he intends to miake every possible efâ€" for, to stop the practice. "It‘s got to stop," says Mr. Atlee, who adds that any person who sells tobacco to public or high school boys or girls will be proseâ€" On more than one recent occasion The Advance has referred to the evils of cigarette smoking by young boys. These lads are dwarfing <themselves and dulting their mental powers by the premature use of tobacco. â€"The teachers are able to pick out the cui« prits by their stupid attitude and lack of powers of concenitration.

At the high school in Orillia, "After Baby, Was Weak, Skinny. Gained 22 Lbs." the merchants who sell the youngsters the cigarettes had better take a tip now and so prevent losses and costs. Some of the parents are understood to upâ€" hold the smoking tricks of their young boys. These would do well to reverse this attitude, if for no other reason than their own pocketâ€"books, as the law does not allow even parents to perâ€" mit children to use tobacco. Parents, in itheir own interests,â€"as well as in the interests of their children, would do well to see that the cigarette habit is stopped so far as ‘their youngsters are concerned.~ To de so will save the health of the ~boys,â€"the purses of .the parents and sellers of tobacco, and the generial standing of the community. there are boys so mentially benumbed by cigarettes as to be stupid and backâ€" ward, though the teachers are of the opinion that if ithey left cigarettes alone they would be average if niot brilliant pupils. In Timmins the h‘gh school students are not so noted for their untimely cigarette smoking as the smialler boys in the lower schools. Of course, the cigaretteâ€"smoking younzâ€" sters do not smoke at school or around the school, but after they get a block or two away from the schools they "light up." The authorities here are planâ€" ning to put a stop to it, and according the young smokers, their parents, and we must reach and from which there must be no retreat. Tco often we see evidences that sections or classes in our country, even if they ‘nave nc fcrâ€" gotten, are willing ‘to take an attitude and withhold from the men of the Caâ€" nadian Corps an acknowledgement of what that Corps did to unite Canada‘s name high in the world‘s roll of honâ€" our." Yes, Sir Arthur, we cerjainly agree with you, and we will add: ‘"Thait the world at large often forgets, what the men from the colonies, from Great Britain, Ireland, and other remote parts of the British Empire who comâ€" prised the British Army,â€"that "Conâ€" temptible Army," who shoulder to shoulder. »stood and bled, and died, when the honourâ€"of the Britith Empire was at stake.

Owing to unforeseen circumstances the president and myself were unable to attend, but nevertheless everyone seems well satisfied, and each and everyone voted this event the best yet. Before going further, I would like to draw the comrades‘ attention to the large number of new members admitted last year. There was a total of 90. We put through 70 since Oct. 10th, 1929. I am pleased to say that all these members have had their cards and badges. We had one applicant for membership this last week, in Berâ€" tin Vine. I have just received a furâ€" ther 200 application forms, so roll upn, soys and get into the Legion. I had quite surprise the cther day. I was opening the day‘s mail when I espied one letter, which I thought might be an answer to one of my 12â€"cent seize. It was addressed to the Secretary of the Canadian Legion, Timimins. Alas, my hopes dropped to the ground as I read, "Dear Madam," and found that it was in reference to an account. T‘ll bet it is the first time the secretary of this Post has been addressed as "Dear Madam." Such is the life,. of a secreâ€" tary, and what surprises we do get in the mail sometimes. Looking through the December "Legionary‘‘ I notice the following in a letter of General Sir Arthur Currie:â€""Every man who exâ€" perienced the hardships of war is payâ€" ing some penialty"‘ and "Pension adâ€" ministration must be one of sympaâ€" thetic justice, and not saving." This message is worthy of repetition by every branch of the Legion. The folâ€" lowing also strikes me as being near the matter of adequate care for disabled comrades and for the dependenits of those who fell, adequate employment for ithose whose careers were broken by the years of warâ€"thal, my comrades, is an objective which Well, comrades, everyone seems well satisfied with the Ladies‘ "Gentlemen‘s Night" held on the 30th Dec.

"Contaurum is being examined by engineers of Ventures, Litd., with a view toward reaching a decision respecting possible deep development. "Porcupine United ceased operations during the year after recovering only The secretary of the Ontari> Minâ€" ing Association in a recent article made the startling statement that ‘"in the future Porcupine can hardly be expectâ€" ed ito do more than hold its own." The atatement is worthy of being classed as "startling‘"‘ coming from a source that should apparently know betiter. Anyâ€" ons unnecessarily pessimistic is alltoâ€" gether out of place in the mining game. The Minisier of Minss, howâ€" ever, who is in a betiter positton to know whereof hs speaks, and who is not expected to favour one mining camp more than another, but to keep strictly to the facts and the promises as they appear, recently went on reâ€" cord as saying ‘that "Porcupine gives bright promise of a new lease of life." J. A. McRae, a writer on mining matâ€" ters who has never unduly favoured Porcupine camp, but who evidently is nIi>t inclined to uphold some other camp at the expense of the Porcupine, also recently wrote about this notable gold camp in a more optimistic spirit than the apparently less reasoned and less reasonable attitude adopted by the secretary of the Ontario Mining Assoâ€" cilation. Mr. McRae apparently kesps to the facts as he knows them and so his picture is a hopeful and helpful one. He says:â€" "D;ome officials are conisidering the quec:ticmn of erecting a new mill. Atâ€" tractive contracts have been offered to Dome by the T. and N. O. railway to haul the ore to ‘the Hollinger mill, while Hollinger has also offered Baeme a very attractive milling rate. The| railway extends right from the Dome® mine â€"to the Hollinger mill, and the ‘daily output of Dome would make cnly two ‘trainloads to be shunted the disâ€" tance of about fbur miles. Dome, in the meantime, is maintaining developâ€" ment and is increasing ore reserves. "Contributing to the decline was the closing down and abandcmnmenit of cperations on Ankerite, the destruction of the mill on Dome Mines late in the year, and a lower tonnage handled in the mill on Hollinger Consolidated. "During 1929, according to preliminâ€" ary estimates, approximately 2,950,000 tons of (ore were ‘treated for a recovery of about $19,900,000 in gold from the mines iof Porcupine. This compares with 3,185,600 tons in 1928 yielding $20,352,000. and 4,000 feet from the new shaft, while an experimental mill unit is in operation endeavouring to improve milling process. The early results in the lower levels were less impressive than might have been expected. This dvses no‘ infer, however, more than mzderate modificaition of earlier expecâ€" tation. The indications are the comâ€" pany will end its fiscal year March 31 with an ore reserve considerably greatâ€" er than at any previous time. "Vipond Consolidated had a successâ€" ful year, increasing net earnings and adding to ore reserves. Surplus is well above $700,000, while ore reserves conâ€" tain at least $1,000,000.

"A very favourable feaiture is the inâ€" crease in average grade of ore. This increase is expected to continue in 1920 owing to Hollinger now drawing lesser amount of lowâ€"grade developâ€" ment rock and confining production to a more represenitative averaige grade of the minz. ‘"McInityreâ€"Porcupine was expected to have undertaken additional mill conâ€" struction in 1929.
