The new Canadian National Railways station at Kapuskasing is expected to be ready for use by the public by March Ist. At present work on the interior of the building is being rushed to compleâ€" tion, according to The Northern Triâ€" A big building boom is expected in Sudbury in the coming spring. One firm alone has purchased a block of lots on which it is understood two hunâ€" dred houses will be erected as soon as the work can be started and carried through. Although there was much building in Sudbury last year, there is still lack of accommodation. Sudbury has had previous booms, with the deâ€" pression nearly sure to follow, but in the meantime the need for further housing and other building accommodâ€" ation is so marked that nothing apâ€" pears to be logical but to proceed with extensive building to meet the needs. The concern about to put up the two hundred houses is going into the building on a more extensive scale than any others, but there are literalâ€" ly scores of private individuals and firms also planning to build houses for their own use or to rent. At the presâ€" ent time there is great optimism in Sudbury and with demand in nearly every line of employment and business good the citizens feel unusually hopeâ€" ful and optimistic in regard to the fuâ€".

Reid, 757; E. Reid, 735; L. Cohen, 735; H. Daher, 682; R. Webb, 650; H. Dunfield, 646; A. Tomâ€" kinson, 639; A. Sauve, 619; M. Donaldâ€" son, 605. It is hoped to increase the honour roll as.the league goes on. The following are the matches playâ€" ed last week in the Ostrosser bowling league:â€" Each of the teams has games. The standing of the teams, up to and including Jan. 22nd, is as follows:â€"â€" Team Won Lost PtsS.

D. Reid, of the Lions was the star. player with a +nice total of 757 pins in three strings. The spectacular performance of Capt. E. Reid, of the Supremes, was largely responsible for their win. He appears Supremes won the first game by 23 pins. In the second game the Lions came back with a total of 1113 pins, to win by 149 pins. Going into the third *rame with the Lions 127 pins up, on the total, Supremes pulled through with 1207 pins against 1065, thus winâ€" ning by the close margin of 15 pins in the total pin fall. The games Wednesday night were hotly contested. Apparently there is strong rivalry between the two teams, the Lions and the Supremes. Captain Dickson Oof the Lions had perfectly reasonable alibis or it would have been different for the Supremes.

POWER TELEPHONE Supremes increased their lead by taking three points from the Lions in the Ostrosser league last week. Previâ€" ous to that the Lions were one point behind the Supremes so it is easy to see that it is still possible for the Lions to come out on top.

The event will commence at 8 p.m., and all attendâ€" ing may be assured of a very pleasant evening. Refreshments will be served during the evening, "Should this second property be found to contain ore in important quantity it shculd not be difficult to arrange the guarantee asked by the T. and N. O. railway." "Through the work so far completed on Hollinger‘s original group in the neighbourhood of $12,000,000 in ore was disclosed. _ Not only this, but nickel values were secured, but never menâ€" tioned officially. The nickel, in whatâ€" ever quantity it may exist, was not included in the $12,000,000 estimate. Deep exploration, either through diaâ€" mond drilling or actual underground work, has never been undertaken. "With interests identified with Holâ€" linger Consolidated having purchased the westerly claims referred to, and with diamond drilling to be started as quickly as possible, hopes are again running high that the outcome may reâ€" sult in the proposed spur line of the T. and N. O. being proceeded with. The main group of Hollinger Consolidated, in the Kamiskotia field, is believed by some to warrant a railway. Therefore, should the discovery to the west live up to expectations, the line â€"will probâ€" ably go through. "Some confusion appears to have arisen in connection with the recent deal through which the Timmins interâ€" ests secured an option on the George Sweet claims in the westerly section of the Kamiskotia area, in Enid township. Some have been of the belief that the claims are those which adjoin the main Kamiskotia group of the Huollinger. However, the claims recently purchased from George Sweet are located several miles to the west of Hollinger‘s main group. The claims which adjoin the latter, in the heart of the Kamiskotia area, are owned by Joseph Sweet of Cobalt and associates.

The Iroquois Falis curlers were successful in their designs and returned home proudly with the cup which will remain at the Falls unâ€" til some other rinks win it back. Timmins rinks will, of course, be after the trophy, and hope to bring it back here again shortly. Iroquois Falls Rinks Take Away T. N. 0. Trophy HOMER L.

It would be more econcmical to buy cushions for the chairs in the police station." Farmers and others always get much useful information and very interesting comment on agricultural matters from the bright columns of The New Lisâ€" | keard Speaker. It should be said also that the farming notes and comments in The Speaker have a general value to readers as giving reliable, readable and ready facts about the North Land. In the last issue of The Speaker the matâ€" ter of growing and ripening onions is dealt with as follows:â€""About twenâ€" lty years ago a prominent member of the Ontario Vegetable Growers‘ Assoâ€" clation told a Toronto newspaperman that onions would not ripen in Temisâ€" kaming. At ‘the annwal meetinsg of New Liskeard Agricultural Society last Saturday an official produced for the inspection of the newly elected direcâ€" tors samples of Red Weatherfield and Yellow Danver seed onions and Dutch sets and Multiplier (Chalots)® bulb onâ€" ions all of which were ripe and sound, These onions were planted or seed sown out of doors last May and no glass was used. Indeed, it was a fair outâ€"ofâ€"dcor test. Of course, last year may have been favourable for ripening of onions, but bulb onions always ripen here. The samples produced were two varieâ€" ties of seed onions and two varieties o® bulb onions. The onion crop is a very important one, but our gardeners and farmers do not seem to understand this, and allow our dealers to buy from the outside dealers. And to us this seems strange. Of course, large unripe onâ€" ions with thick green necks, such as are often seen at the fairs, will not ripâ€" en, but will spoil in the course 6f a few, weeks. And even ripe onions will soon spoil if kept in a warm place. : Onions should be kept in a place which is but a few degrees above freezing." ONIONS WILL RIPEN ALL RIGHT IN TEMISKAMING Appearing with Miss Baker in "Song and Love," a backstage musical drama are. Ralph Graves, David Durand and Eunice Quedens. Erle C. Kenton diâ€" rected. Speaking of Miss Baker in connection with her appearance in "Song of Love," one newspaper says:â€"‘"Belle Baker is great. She has the ability to sway an audience from laughter to tears and from tears to laughter. She has a perâ€" sonality that captivates her hearers:; she has the gift of characterization which transforms a song from mere lyrics and musical notes into a living dramatic thing; she possesses a versaâ€" tility that enables her to do a nathetic or humorous number with equal faciliâ€" ty and talent. In getting Miss Baker to make her talking picture debut, Columbia is to _ be congratulated." Belle Baker, noted as a vaudeville arâ€" tiste, makes her motion picture debut in "Song of Love," the Columbia allâ€" talking, singing, vivid backstage drama, now showing at the Goldfields theatre. Miss Baker has consistently refused to appear on the screen because she felt that the talkies had not reached the point to do justice to the human voice. Columbia made the offer at a psychoioâ€" gical time. Miss Baker feels now that talking films are sufficently perfected to reproduce the voice so that it is lifeâ€" like. Another factor that infiluenced Miss Baker to make her debut at this particular time was the script Columbia pictures presented for Miss Baker‘s apâ€" proval. The popular vaudeville, favâ€" ourite felt that "Song of Love" was a vehicle that catered to her particular talents. BELLE BAKER, THE "QUEEN OF SONG," MAKES SCREEN DEBUT Two rinks from South Porcupine were over to the curling rink here on Saturday to make an effort to lift the Englehart cup. They were unsuccessâ€" fulâ€"very much so, and Timmins acâ€" cordingly retains the cup until further notice. The Timmins curlers defending the cup were:â€" F®. Francis, D. Ostrosser, W. O. Langâ€" don, S. A. Caldbick, skip. E. H. Hill, J. L. Hunt, W. S. Jamieson Geo. S. Drew, skip. the opposing rinks were skipped by Ggo. S. Drew, the mayor of Timmins, and Chas. Ramsay. Drew‘s rink startâ€" ed the tenth end one up. â€" Ramsay scoring one, tieing the score. The eleventh end resulted in no score. Drew was lying shot until Ramsay came down with his last stone and took the shot rock out, his own stone going to the boards. Drew‘s last stone died just outside the first ring, leaving the entire centre without a stone. This necessitated another extra end, with both rinks striving hard to make a win, this honour going to Drew‘s rink. The winning rink in this unusual game conâ€" sisted of:â€"Geo. S. Drew, skip; Roev. Fr. Theriault, viceâ€"skip; Chas. G. Pirie, second; Harry Fuke, lead. The losing rink was skipped by Chas. Ramsay, with Wm. Arundel as viceâ€"skip, Dean Kester as second, and Bruno Carnovale leading. soOUTH PORCUPINE FAILS TO LIFT ENGLEHART CUP An unusual event in local curling hisâ€" tory occurred on Monday night at the local rink, when two extra ends were required to break a tie score. Ths game in question was the first played in the Hollinger Cup competition and Two Extra Ends Needed to Break Curling Tie PHONES 499â€"500 In the report of the inaugural meetâ€" ing of the Kapuskasing town council last week The Northern Tribune had this paragraph:â€""Mr. K. Ross, chartered accountant, of Timmins, was reâ€"engaged as civic auditor on the same terms as previously, and Mr. R. M. Myers will carry on as town solicitor under a retaining fee," Let the Government start this sumâ€" mer and make this North a better place in which to live and they will be millions of dollars ahead in the end. Do something for the settlers and treat them fairly and they will be more inâ€" terested in preventing bush fires than they are now, for anything that puts money in people‘s bank books always rouses them to do all they can to proâ€" tect it. Very soon this North Land will have more than four hours more daylight than our friend Old Ontarioe has. I think it would be better to cease buildâ€" ing auto roads and not extend the T. and N. O. Railway to the Bay, if we are going to keep away the very things that ~will be their upkeep and the means of their becoming a success. If the people will settle along them and spend their money to make things betâ€" ter the Government should step ir and help them instead of listening to those who live a hundred miles from the places that make this North such a great country. The money derived from it should be spent in it to make it bigger and better which would mean a greater revenue to the Government every year. There will be mines and other great things discovered up here when babies born this year will be great grandfathers and great grandmothers. This part of New Ontario at present is like a prize cow, and the cream is separated and taken far away and we get the poor stuff. If this North is such 4 good place to build up a busiâ€" ness and make a fortune, why isn‘t it good enough to reside in twelve months a year, and good enough for broadâ€" casting stations and other improveâ€" ments? t | What use will there be to construct the T. N. O. Railway and an auto road to Moose Factory, and then turn around and do something to keep them from being a success, such as building roads that serve only a few instead of thousands? North of Temagami Staâ€" tion is where most of the news of the North comes from and it is there that penniless men have been made milâ€" lionaires, and a might lot of them too, and more than ever will be made so in the next twenty years So, where could a better place be found to erect broadcasting stations and other imâ€" [provements than in this section of the North? _ When the railway reaches James Bay there sure is likely to be a company formed to build small vessels to ply around the Bay, and airplanes will be soaring above and there is bound to be a goodâ€"sized town or city like Timmins grow up there. So, my idea is that our government should not be like some firms and people who built up a good business in these parts and made money, and then moved away to the outside, and now they want money spent elsewhere that should be spent where it is earned by the Govâ€" ernment. I | Dear Sir:â€"The question of a radio broadcasting station for the North Land has been talked of quite frequentâ€" ly, but the real question is: "Where should it be erected? And‘ why?" My idea is that it should be erected somewhere about half way between North Bay, the starting point of the T. N. O. Railway and Moose FPactory, to which place the Government is going to extend the railway. Why it should be erected at such a place is because that is where all the big mines, the paper mills and the settlers are, and all around it would be where the most owners of radios live, and where it would get the most of its news from the North to broadcast. Just the same, if you want news and all the important news of the mines, and what happens in the North, you can get more of it in a newspaper published right on the ground than you would from one pubâ€" lished out of Northern New Ontario. ‘ | To the Editor of The Advance, Timmins Another letter was received last week from that oldâ€"timer of the North H. A. Preston. This time Mr. Preston is advocating a broadcasting station for the North, but at the same time he has not forgotten his favourite topic of building up the North and giving the settlers a fair chance. Mr. Presâ€" ton emphasizes the fact that more of the money made in the North and from the North should be spent for the furâ€" ther growth of this country. This is good sound logic and farâ€"sightedness. The letter by Mr. Preston is as folâ€" lows:â€" Also Emphasis Placed on the Thought That More of the Money Made in the North and From the North Should be Spent Here.
