Ontarid SiINGER SNAPS understand that Mrs. Haynes and her daughter, Mrs. Duffett, of Englehart, who, with her baby was spending the weekâ€"end with her mother, had just gone up stairs a few minutes before the fire broke out. Some wood had been put in the stove shortly before they went up stairs but everything was apâ€" parently in a safe condition. _ When the fire was discovered the two ladies l had only time to pick up the baby and rush down the stairs to safety, carrying with them nothing but the clothés they had on. Nothing was saved from the fire, Mrs. Duffett losing her fur coat. The ladies were very kindly made welâ€" | come at the home of Mr. and Mrs. A.! ! D MrHPae, who live oppoesite them on Whitewood avenue, where they remainâ€" ed until Mrs. Duffett returned to FEngleâ€" hart, Mrs. Haynes accompanying her. While many of our citizens were not aware of the fire until the following ‘ morning, the firemen were quickly on ‘the scene and in but a comparatively short time had four streams of water lcn. and the fire under control. Howâ€" | ever, while the shell of the building reâ€" | mains, it is so badly gutted that it is of | but little practical use. Mr. Haynes, \ who carries on business at Kirkland ; Lake, came down on Sunday evening to | render assistance to his family, returnâ€" | ing on Monday.

The largest proportion of touristsâ€"sixty per cent.â€"came simply to see the country and for the sake of the scenery.

Tin 3@@ sPECIALâ€"GOOD QUALITY CHECKEN STEALING SAID TO BE PREVALENT IN TOWN According to reports received during the past few weeks there have been a number of thefts of poultry in town and district. One poultry fancier says that this form of. crime toâ€"day has assumâ€" ed such proportions that it merits as much serious attention as is given to similar thefts in the south, In the south, it w.ll be noted from the city papers, it is becoming the practice to cive thieves a co~d stitf term n â€" jail, Chickenâ€"thieving assumed such prop>it‘ups down belew thas this | attitude was irevitable, Last year a section was placed in the law whereby transnortalion of fowl by mnight wus forbidden eseept und>r certain con-’l !ditions. UTUnder this sect‘on min found transporting chickens _ by night is liable to a fine unless he can. show that he has taken the legal method of making the transportation and the onus is more or less upon ‘him to prove his right to handle the ‘birds. Unless he can prove lawful interest he is very likely to land up in a "coop" himself. Unfortunately, all \ the local cases of theft of poultry are not reported, and those that are reâ€" \ ported to the police are not always folâ€" ‘lowed up by the parties concerned. Because of this the police are naturalâ€" | 1y handicapped in their efforts to curb ithe poultry thefts. About week or ten days ago there was Case told ‘about around town where a couple of 1 chlckens were stolen in town and those who owned the birds had a good idea where they went to. The police visited the home of the suspected party and found that the birds had been taken 'back to their roosts. The man who | was accused of taking the birds said he only did it for a joke. He was taking ‘ up a dangerous form of humour, if he }t°11<; the truth about this, the lock on Uho poultry shed door was smashed to ‘ secure one of the birds, and as most I people know the joke is liable to be on the joker who has the idea that someâ€" ‘ thing is a joke when the law affirms it ‘is a crime. In this case, however, the owners of the stolen birds did not lay any charge, apparently considering that if they had their birds back they were very lucky in comparison to others. HEiINZ CHOITICE THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO ‘imms FOR PREPARING THE LUNCK AFTER THE BRIDGE Recipes by Expert for Sandwiches, Cookies and Coffee That Will Leave no Harmful Afterâ€"Effects to Spoil the Pleasant Evening. The following article by Barbara B. Brcoks will no doubt be read with inâ€" terest and advantage by scores of readâ€" ers of The Advance interested in these matters. Barbara B. Brooks, writing of the luncheon to be served after the evening‘s bridge or other party, says:â€"â€" How often in the wee small hours "erse slumber‘s chain" has bound you, do you wish that you had had the selfâ€" control to refuse that cup of coffee ofâ€" fered after the bridge game! Probably the coffeée is not entirely to balme. While you are lying awake, think back to what went with the coffee. Did you eat sandwiches with very rich fillings; was the cake too elaborate; was the combination one ncot easy to digest? There are many factors which disâ€" turb sleep but the usual one, for a perâ€" son in normal health, is excess Sstimuâ€" lation through excitement or through fcod and drink or both. Nearly every one gets somewhat keyelâ€"up at a party and this, together with eating at an unusual hour, laxes the digestion to sich an extent that sleep is driven aâ€" way. We are going to suggest here some | ideas for evening refreshments which will be easy for the hostess, satisfactory to the guests, and which will not mearn troubled sleep for anyone. We have all had the experience, as hostesses, of ‘ making the mistake of trying to serve something which has to be prepared at the last minute. As guests, we have sometimes gons home feeling that we never want to see anything sweet again. There is a happy medium for all things and party focd should come within this rangeâ€"neither too sweet nor too sour; too rich nor too plain; not too difficult to prepare; not too hard to digest. A good rule to follow isâ€"have smething savory, something crisp, something sweet and a drink, either hot or cold, dependâ€" ing on the season of the year. sandwiches are always welcome and the filling may be savory ana the crispness can be obtained by toasting. Simple cakes or cookies will furnish the sweets and decaffeinated coffee the drink. For this type of menu we suggest the following:â€" Assorted Sandwiches Mustard butter filling, sardine paste, cream cheese and olive, deviled ham. Cut each kind of sandwich in a difâ€" ferent shape, triangular, rectangular, diamond or in finger lengths. Wrap them in a damp cloth until time: to serve N uP s P0 Filled cookies are always 2@ treat. Marguerites aAre delicious and simple W % S L3 W e s to make Heré are recipes for both of ‘thess sweets: Marguerites 2 eggs, 1 cup brown sugatr, $ cup flour, i teaspoon baking powder, 1â€"3 teaspcon salt, 1 cup pecan meats, cut in small pisces. s Beat eggs slightly, and add the reâ€" maining ingredients. Fill tiny buttered pans twoâ€"thirds full of mixture, and place a whole pecan meat on each. Bake in a moderate overn (380° F.) for about fiftsen minutes. CORZI ® Remove the sseds from the dates and boil dates, sugar and water untii soft. 1 cup butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 34 cups flour} 2 teaspoons baking powder, i teaspoon salt, 4 cup water, 2 cups corn flakes. Cream the butter, add the sugar and beat thoroughly. Add the flour, which has been sifted with the baking powder and salt, then the water and last the ht dcctcabutd Ee EwC corn flakes. Roll the cooky dough thin and cut into rounds. Spread one round with the date mixture and put a second layer on top, pressing eages together. Bake in a moderate oven (380° F.) for ten to twelve minutes. In every group, however small. there is some one who dares not grink cofâ€" fee because of the sleepless night which will follow. Decaffeinated coffes solves this hostess‘ problem. The recipe givâ€" en here will serve eight personsiâ€" i cup decaffeinated coffee, 2 quarts boiling water. Aliow to percolate until it foams in the glass top of the percolatoer and is the desired strength and colour. DEATH OF MRS. L A. CLEMENT OF CONNAUGHT LAST WEEK The North Bay Nugget last week says:â€""After an illness of two weeks, Mrs. Louis A. Clement, Connaught Staâ€" tion, died last night at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F. A. Lefebvre, 150 Copeland street. Taken ill at her home with heart disease, she was reâ€" moved to the hospital at Timmins and last week came to North Bay. Born at Sheenboro, Que., her maiden name was Helen Marcella and she married NMr. Clement there, 52 years ago. After twenty years residence at Rowanton, Que,. they moved to Cochrane and went to Connaught Station, sixteen years The Allâ€"British Social Club are holdâ€" ing a whist drive in the Hollinger Reâ€" creation hall this (Thursday) evening, commencing at 8.30 p.m. ago. The funeral will be held on Satâ€" urday morning from the home of Mrs. Lefebyvre to St. Mary‘s cathedral, where Rev. J. Kennedy will officiate at the service, commencing at ten o‘clock. Interment will be made in St. Mary‘s cemetery. Surviving, besides her husâ€" band. are two sons, Adelard, Biscotasâ€" ing., Ont., and Isadore, Connaught Staâ€" tion; and two daughters, Mrs. F.

Moore, has become associated with Timmins Post as an honorary member. I‘m sure that everyone will be pleased to have "Doc" with us as an honorary member. This brings our 1930 list to eight alâ€" ready. I had a letter from Windsor Post this week requesting the transfer of Comâ€" rade A. V. Roberts to that Post. wWwe | are sorry to lose a member in good standing, and I‘m sure all the Post will join me in wishing Comrade Roberts "the best" in Windsor. Everyone seemed to have enjoyed thems@lves at the Ladies‘ Auxiliary whist drive. Don‘t forget that the enâ€" tertainment committee are putting on a whist drive on Monday, February 10th, in the Oddfellows‘ hall. As the entertainment committee are behind | i l this "Night" everyone can hbe assured of a good time. Cards will start at 8 pm. sharp till 10 p.m. Then refreshâ€" ments will be in order with dancing afterwards. There will be two prizes for whist for the ladies, and two for‘ the gentlemen. Another feature will! be a lucky door ticket. so all the crack whist players and anyone who feels lucky enough to have the lucky ticket number, come in crowds. I might add that after the drive I will be only too pleased to attend to any Legion business that the comrades reâ€" quire and I will have a supply of appl!iâ€" cation forms for anyone who wants to join the Post. So any comrade who has any new applicants in view, bring them around and have them put their applications forwardâ€" Our next general meeting will be on February 17th which will be advertised later. The ladies have the 3ra and the 24th of February. Legion news in the Porcupine this week is scarce, but I notice in Toronto that the Poppy Fund is being well subscribed to. The Legion should be pleased that Mr. Tory takes such an interest in his comrades of the Legion. It seems deplorable to think that there is so much distress in Toronto amongst our comrades of the great war. Such splendid response from the Toronto district to the Poppy Fund is worthy of note. We of the Timmins Post of the Canaâ€" dian Legion feel lucky that we have very little distress or members out of work. We have two members of this Post, who would be thankful for a steady job where they could earn enough to support their family. So if any emâ€" ployer of labour in the district, needs a clerk, or a man for light work, the Timmins Post would be pleased to hear from them. Both these men have families and cannot do hard manual labour owing to wounds received "over be Canabtan Eeqton in the Dorcupms We will continue the sale now in progress until THEY REPRESENT REAL SAVINGS Hollinger Stores Ltd By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer. Buy Hollinger Quality, It Pays Come in every day and look over our special tables. YÂ¥ ou will find that it will pay you to watch our windows and keep in touch with the bargains we are offering there" (for King and Country) March will be a busy month for the‘ entertainment committee, as they have. two nights for entertainment during the month, besides the general meeting. i Let‘s hope for one good sketch anyhow. I might add that anyone in the disâ€" trict wishing to help the Legion Bugle Band can send in their donation to Comrade Pearce or myself. We hope to have a real good bugle band this In conclusion I wish to thank those comrades who have come forward with their dues. Dues mean interest and support for the Legion at large. New members mean more support, more inâ€" terest, morse funds to carry on the work of the Legion. At the enterâ€" tainments, at the general meetings, the old spirit of "camaraderie‘"" an be seen amongst the comrades. These nights are nights that the old battles can be reâ€"fought, old scenes recalled, new friendships made, where Jack and his master are on the same footing. The hearty laughter and spirit of comradeâ€" ship displayed in these nights are good for the eye, and may we long keep up the good work, is the wish of EXCELLENT PICTURE OF NORANDA AND BUILDODOINGS There is a picture of the buildings at : the Horne property at Noranda now | hanging in the council chamber in the | Timmins town hall. This picture is of | particular interest for several reasons. Nearly everyone is interested in Nor-} anda and its big smelting industry and , the picture gives an excellent view of | the buildings, at the property. Those who know the property say that the j drawing is true to scale and to actualiâ€" ty. It is very skilfully drawn and | coloured with equal talent and effecâ€" tiveness." The "big chimney of the smelter naturally has a central prominâ€" 1 ence, while clustered round it are shown ‘ the many buildings erected to care for. the needs of the industry. The picture will have added ‘interest in Timmins from the fact that it is the work of a brother of Counstable Wilfred Perâ€" reault of the Timmins force. It is a very creditable piece of work from { every standpoint and in addition it has decided value as an accurate picture of the big Noranda industry. Special® efforts are being made at North Bay these days to secure a hockey arena that will be felt to be in keeping with the importance of the city and the fine brand of hockey, especially junior hockey, for which North Bay NORTH BAY BOARD OF TRADE TO HELP SECURE ICE ARENA â€" The Secretaryâ€"Treasurer has been more or less famous.

At the last regular meeting of the North Bay board of trade the matter was brought up by Dan Barker and the board pledged its fullest support in every way to the committee already apâ€" pointed to see what can be done about securing an upâ€"toâ€"date new rink to take the place of the old one destroyed some months ago by fire.
