We had an application form for membership from R. Backhouse, The Hon. G. Howard Ferguson has sent in his cheque to become an honorâ€" ary member of Timmins Post. So, when the Premier of Ontario comes along with us, it shows that the Canaâ€" dian Legion must be all right. We are proud to have the Hon. G. Howard Ferguson as an addition to the list of zentlemen on the honorary memberâ€" ship of this Post. This brings our total to seven already. I missed a little of sir Arthur Curâ€" rie‘s letter last week in which he exâ€" plains our first objective. Our first objective, and the one in which we may be pardoned for having the deepest interest, the one which more than any other thing, called our crganization into being, is to see that adequate provision is made for our disabled comrades, also for those comâ€" rades who find it difficult to get along and support home and family; and also to see that adequate ease is proâ€" vided for the loved ones of those who did not return. I know that no day passes but what I am asked to help in one of these thingsâ€"no day but what brings written pleas for help to overcome present hardships, or to see that pensions are more fairly and equitâ€" ably given. My experience in this regard is, I know, the experience of all of you, and when we consider what the total of those necessities are we are not only amazed but ashamed that eleven years after the War it is necessary not only Don‘t forget the Ladies‘ Auxiliary whist drive on January 20th in the Oddfellows‘ hall. We can depend on the ladies to do their best, and so let‘s all go. "Spades are trumps" and the M.C. will initial alil scores over ten as usual. Comrade Forrester tells me the Enâ€" tertainment Committee are putting on a whist drive on February 10th in the Oddfellows‘ hall. Bill says they, exâ€" pect to beat the ladies, so hop to it, Bill, as they have a good start in whist drives. to plead but to fight for justice and the fulfilment of assurances given so freely when men volunteered for serâ€" vice. I believe the sense of justice and of gratitude is strong in our Canadian people if they but knew the facts. For it would seem that in the hurry and fret of our modern life the sacrifice made by those men has been forgotten and that their service in many cases has been ignored. The word "disability‘"‘ brings forcibly to my mind one of the great difficulâ€" ties. Men are now suffering greatly from disakilities which pensions authâ€" orities refuse toâ€"admit .arose from ~wWar service. That is a contention on their part which I think is made too often. Olbe Canabtan Kegion in the Rorcuping By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer. Well, comrades, I thought this was well worth repeating and we know the words of the Commander of the Canaâ€" dian Corps are only "too true." We all remember the kind words, smiles and good wishes when we donned His Majesty‘s uniform; how they cheered us along, and what they would do for us when we got back; if only we would go and stem the tide the country would never forget us. Alas we find that dream of long ago has not come true. Some of the very people who cheered us along, now will pass us by the wayside; their ears are deaf to our appeals, and the help they do give has to be simply forced out of them. We find on our return some }rolling in wealth, which reminds me of a tale I once heard. A gentleman who had amassed milâ€" lions was laid on his death bed. Just before he died he said to his valet. "Well, Jones I have made a lot of money in this world." "Yes Sir,‘ Jones said, "but you cannot take it with you." As we have to fight for our right, a few dollars donated, to the funds of the Canadian Legion, from those who can afford it, would ensure less to leave behind when they pass out of this world. To me a medical board takes a great deal upon itself when it declares that war service contributed in no way to present disability. I contend that alâ€" most every man who experienced the hardships of war is paying some penâ€" alty. Some of this money was made durâ€" ing the war, and the men who made this making of money possible were the men of the British Army. Could some of those gentlemen have spent a few days in some of the holes we spent months in, in Flanders and other theatres of war, they would only be too pleased to answer the cries of mercy, help, that are frequent in this great dominion toâ€"day. We gave our all, gladly, without stint, to keep the Union Jack flying, and always behind us was the thought that we would get our reward as proâ€" mised. We have found out that we have to reward ourselves. Our Saviour would never pass anyone by on the wayside or turm a deaf ear to an appeal. What a scope there is for His teaching in this hard old world. Many can help one, where one canâ€" not help many. There is only one way that we can assure a fair chance of getting help and that is for every reâ€" turned man or woman, in the district to join the Legion. Don‘t stay on the outside looking in. Its only a little over a cent a day to keep the dues paid. One cigarette less a day would pay your Legion dues. Two trips to the show less would pay your dues for a quarter.

Just fancy if we had that 200 all in Timmins Post 88 how strong we would be, what more good work, both the Timmins Post and the Ontario Command could do with the dues from these 200. In conclusion I would say to all exâ€" officers and men, who are not in the Legion:â€"‘"Don‘t be bashful; join up now, get in again, shoulder to shoulder with your comrades of the great war; forget the past, look to the future, fall in once more on the roll of the Timmins Post of the Canadian Legion! Never mind the other fellow, you are not faultless.

E. Hammell, president of the company, states. Vigorous denial is made of rumors that production would not commence for two or three months. sSubstantiating his statements, Mr. Hammell declares reports from the General Engineering company, which is erecting the plant, giving a summary cof conditions as at Dec. 31, show the work is really ahead of schedule. The head frame and the new shaft house were completed, it was stated. The hoist building was finished and goad progress was being made on the installation of the hoist. On Decemâ€" ber 24th, the Symons crusher building was 9 per cent. completed and the jaw crusher building 95 per cent. completâ€" ed. Agitator tanks had been erected and part of the agitator machinery inâ€" stalled. _ At the end oqf the year the coarse ore bin was practically ready and some work had been done on the fine ore bin. Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., Jan. 7.â€"(Speâ€" cial)â€"After one day of cold weather, spring conditions ‘have reappeared in the district, with the mercury around 50 degrees. Partridges, squirrels, frogs and other animals of spring are seen as well as ducks and an occasional roâ€" bin Yesterday two crows were seen at Echo Bay and several butterflies have been found on the sunny sides of buildâ€" inss The snow is going fast, and some of the roads are becoming loose for travel. A progress report from A. R. Lawâ€" rence, ~mine dated January 6th, said that all preparations for the removal of ore had been made underground and that work was proâ€" ceeding on most of the eight levels. For years past The Advance has been suggesting at various times that this North Land will eventually become winter resort for the people of the south to escape the inclement weather that is forever hitting southern secâ€" tions. Special point is given to this humorous allusion by two despatches published side by side in several of the North Land newspapers last week. The first snow of the season fell at Yosemite Park last night and continuâ€" ed heavily today, ending the driest perâ€" fod in the park‘s history since 1917. Today‘s snowfall marked the opening of the winter sports season. The second despatch is from the north, and reads as follows:â€" As a.â€"matter of fact while not by any means pretending to rival the mildness of Californian winters, there is this to be said about North Land winters:â€" that everybody is so braced up to stand the winter that when it does come the co‘ld is never so bad as anticipated and the many bright days and weeks of mild weather are delightful indeed. Cities like Toronto, Hamilton, Monâ€" treal, and New York, too, for that matâ€" ter are very likely to be tied up and bixckaded by a heavy fall of snow, while in this North preparations are always ready to avoid inconveniences of this sort. â€" Further, it may be noted that when trains are delayed by winâ€" ter storms, it is almost invaritably south <£ North Bay that the tieâ€"up cccurs. In this part of the North it is difficult to delay traffic much with the plans and preparations made to avoid such annosyance. The North Land winter has been given more or less of a bad name, but it is a bracing and pledsant outfit in reality, and in modern days compares favourably with other winâ€" ters in other sections of the continent. According to the latest advices to Mr. Hammell from the contractors the first part of the equipment would be turned over before the end of January and the mill would be gradually worked up to its capacity within the following few weeks.

"Buster‘"‘ has resided at the Weegar home, 92 Worthington street west, for eight years and is a favourite with all, especially in police circles." The snow fall during the weekâ€"end was appreciated throughout the North Land by those in the woods, as there was previously so sparse a supply of snow in the bush that lumbering operâ€" ations were handicapped. The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "Mrs. Jas. Morton, Jr., of Timmins, is spending the week on a visit to her mother, Mrs. Watterson, at North Coâ€" balt, and Mr. Morton‘s parents, Mr. and Mrs. J.
