Seo. for Less Than "Few stations on the 8,000â€"railâ€"mile territory of the Central region of the Canadian National Raiways can rival the beauty and convyeniences of the new station at Kapuskasing which was reâ€" cently opened. . Sweeping roof design broken by attractive dormers enhances the external beauty. Asbestos slate shingles add a touch of modernity, which is quite consistent with the proâ€" gressive nature of Kapuskasing‘s public buildings. Selected No. 1 pressed brick was selected for the outside walls, and this is set off by a stone trim. Twenty feet wide and extending some 400 feet on either side of the station, the platâ€" forms were planned to easily hold large crowds and facilitate passenger and exâ€" press movement. Kapuskasing‘s Fine New C.N.R. Railway Station is given last week by The Northern Tribune. The Tribune believes the Kapuskasing station to be one of the finest on the line. The Tribune says:â€" A description of the new Canadian National Railway depot at Kapuskasing "With the advent of spring. considâ€" erable work will be done on the station surroundings. It is intended by officers of the National system to engage in road making around the station, and to perform considerable landscape work. When completed, good driveways will lead to the station, which will be flanked by lawns and flower beds. The CN.R. is noted over the continent for its statâ€" ion beautification programme. Inside the station is a spacious general waitâ€" ig room, a ladies‘ waiting room, smokâ€" ing room and ticket office. There are also baggage and express rooms and an express office. None of the facilities of a large terminus were omitted. A deâ€" parture from ordinary station design was made when terrazzo floors of a light colour were laid in the public space. The floors were offset by a black border and base which extends around the walls. "By the use of selected brick to a height of nine feet, the interior wall treatment has been made most effecâ€" tive. From the height of brick to the ceiling, the walls have been plastered and painted a deep cream, which atâ€" tractively matches the buff brick below. The windows are arched overhead with brick. The ladies‘ waiting room and the smoking room adjoin the general waiting room, and are connected through brick archways. The doors and fixtures are wrought of best grade clear oak to blend with the terrazzo and brick work. "Heating is supplied by means of a low pressure modern steam heating plant located in the basement. The plumbing system includes outlets to sanitary drinking fountains. There is ample fire protection. The foundation walls are concrete to grade, and fire hose cabinets have been installed at strategic points in the building. Amâ€" ple artificial lighting has been provided, and the fixtures have been fashioned in keeping with the beautiful intérior. Once the station‘s external surroundâ€" ing are completed, the Kapuskasing terminal will be the most attractive from Toronto to Winnipeg, from many points of view." SOCIAL EVENING AT THE LANCASHIRE CLUB TOâ€"NIGHT The Lancashire Social Club are holdâ€" ing another of their pleasant social evenings in the Hollinger Recreation hall, this (Thursday) evening, March 27th, at 8 pm. The evening will be spent in songs and dancing and other novelties. The Topnotchers‘ orchestra will provide the best of music. A small charge of a quarter each will be made for admission. Refreshments will be served during the evening. The North Bay Nugget last week says:â€"‘"Miss Sarah Slotnick, of Timâ€" mins, is the guest of Mrs. A. Rajesky, Amelio street." The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasâ€" ing, last week says:â€"‘"‘The feature C: the town council meeting on Monday night was the appointment of a high school board. Messrs Wm. Brubacher, Gaston Vincent, C. W. Boast, Tom Sshaw, C. R. Murdock and Dr. John Aiken were the nominees of the counâ€" cil, to which are added Rev. Father Morisseau, representing the separate schcol board, and T. H. Scott for the public school beard. Into the hands of these leading citizens is committed the care of higher education in Kapuskasâ€" ing. When the board is duly organâ€" ized and the Department of Education has given it due recognition, they will supervise the upper grade work being carried on in the Diamond Jubilee School now as continuation classes; and of course they will be mindful of the future needs of the town and have before them consideration of the adâ€" visability of a separate high school building. It is not likely that any hasty action will be taken in that diâ€" rection, until the board has functioned for a time in control of the existing facilities for high school tuition here." FORMER TIMMINS MEN ON KAPUSKASING H.S. .BOARD In its report of the recent "Father and Son" banquet at New Liskeartc United Church, The New Liskeard Speaker says:â€"*"The treat of the evenâ€" ing was an address by Rev. J. D. Parks, of North Bay. Mr. Parks took up the question of boys‘ work and treated the subject in a manner which was entirely new to most of his hearers. Many of his deductions will cause considerable thought to those who have had the work at heart in New Liskeard." Victoria, is the only colony of skylarks on the continent of North America. This sweetest of all songsters, of whom Canadian children read in all anthologies of British poetry, but which they have never seen or heard in actual life in their own counâ€" try, save in this one section of the Dominion, has been acclimatized at Victoria successfully.

Members of the legislature from the northern section were unanimously against the project a narrow gauge railway. A local Cornishman has sent the folâ€" lowing little poem to The Advance for publication. It will be of much interâ€" est to Cornishmen, and to many others. The writer of the verses, while sending his name along with the verses, does not wish the name published but uses instead a nom de plume:â€" CORNWALL (By Oldâ€"Timer) Hast thee iver ben to Cornwall, Don roon Land‘s End way, Catched the fish at Newlyn And smacked off in the bay. Not far away is Skitty, With its gate big floating docks, Andeen the distance Cam Brea hill With its ancient Druids‘ rocks. There‘s Shuffley, too, close to Redruth, Where they used to smelt the tin; The old red river rushes by, And tatieâ€"cakes wash in. There‘s Camborne, too, close to the say, With its famous Dolcoath mine. The tin is there the experts say But they sure can "shoot the line" The bill asked power to have $2,000,â€" 000 of capital stock to operate mines and mineral lands and deposits, includâ€" ing coal, oil and gas, to treat ores, and metals and to acquire and develop waâ€" ter power, real estate, and personal property as it may require. They also asked the right to conâ€" struct and control telegraph and teleâ€" phone lines, gasoline stations and many other features. The bill was defeated by a vote of 12 to 5. Schumacher Fire Dept. has annountâ€" ed that its annual Firemen‘s ball will be held this year on Friday evening, April 28th, in the McIntyre Recreation hall. Literally hundreds of people in the district look forward with much interest to the Schumacher Firemen‘s annual ball, and so April 28th should be marked in red ink on the calendar for next month. The same bill was before the last session of the legislature but was then turned down also. sSCHUMACHER FIREMEN TO HOLD ANNUAL.BALL, APRIL 28 * The Northern Development Commisâ€" sion of the Toronto Board of Trade is expected to join with provincial repreâ€" sentatives in a tour through Northern Ontario during the early summer month. The party will go west to the end of the Great Lakes and then cirâ€" cle the North via C.N.R. and T. N. O. R‘y. lines. Interesting to West Cornwall Folks pl ne M to be found in considerable numbers among the oaks to the north of the city, on the slopes of Mt. Tolmie, at the Colwood Golf course, among the orchards of Gordon Head, in the deep meadows near Elk Lake, and from the flowerâ€"scented grounds of Butchart‘s Gardens. Photographs show the Gardens with inset of the English skylark. "ON wWITH THE SHOW" AT THE GOLDFEILDS THIS WEEKâ€"END The special for this wesekâ€"end at the Goldfields theatre is the offering, "On With the Show," described as the first 100 per cent. natural colour, talking, singing, dancing pictureâ€"a Warner Bros. Vitaphone production in techniâ€" colour. The picture has been wellâ€"reâ€" ceived generally and has received some flattering press notices, one of which is given herewith:â€" Regina Crewe in the New York American: "It was Warner Bros,. who gave us the first talkie. Now they have again revolutionized the motion picture industry with "On With the Show." Its mighty success means just one thing In another, say, two years there won‘t be a â€"photoplay in black and white photography presented on Broadway. As the film mounts from one one height to another it is safe to say that every audience will drown out the sound device with applause. That‘s what they did last night at the Winter Garden: And it was none too great a tribute to pay to this musical revue. For it equals anything the old playâ€" house has ever seen." In answer to a delegation waiting upon him recently, Hon. Wm. Finlayâ€" son said that the highway between Parry Sound and Sudbury will not be built this year. It will take two or three years to complete the Ferguson highway and until that is done the Government does not feel justified in starting any other highways, according to the report of what Mr. Finlayson said to the delegates. Copper Coin That Looks As if it Might be Gold months since a number of coins in the possession of a local man were reviewed and tempted others to bring forward their treasures in the way of old and rare coins, but none seen to date hold any more interest than one shown The Advance last week by Mr. Thos. E. Flynn. This coin of Mr. Flynn‘s is evidently a halfâ€"penny one, though this is not stated on the coin itself. The coin is dated 1853, and certainly is not a copper coin as copper coins of toâ€"day go. It is bright as gold and has somthing of the feel of gold about it. One explanation of this is that it is made of pure copper and not of copâ€" per alloy as all the presentâ€"day copâ€" per coins are made. A more interestâ€" ing theory was given to Mr. Flynn, however, by a friend one time when they were discussing coins and other things. This friend said that in the fifties or sixties two men stole a gold brick but were so closely pursued that they got rid of the stolen brick. They were caught and sentenced to life imâ€" prisonment for the offence and later confessed that they had gotten rid of the gold brick by throwing it into the copper smelter at the mint. At the time the gold brick was thrown into the smelter where the copper was meltâ€" ed for making the copper coins, there The Advance has seen a number of interesting coins in the past fgw was a new issue of halfâ€"penny pieces being made. As soon as the authorities knew that the copper coins had been "tainted‘" by the addition of gold, no further coins were issued from this smelting and all those that had been issued were at once recalled. Only a very few of the goldâ€"copper coins reâ€" mained outside and the one in Mr. Flynn‘s possession is considered as probably one of this very small numâ€" ber. If this is the correct explanation Mtr. Fynn‘s coin is likely to be very valuable, as a high price is said to be set by coin fanciers on this particular issue of copper coins that were "sweetâ€" ened" by a gold brick. The copper coin in question has the head of Queen Victoria on the one side. The edge is not milled, but is higher than the face of the coin. On this account the coin will not ring clear like the ordinâ€" ary flat coin. Mr. Flynn has many other odd and old coins, including French and Spanâ€" ish pieces. PERHAPS IT IS A CASE OF TAKING LEAVE OF SENSES While listening to a church service broadcast from the Cathedral of Notre Dame, a Parisian wireless listener also smelled the smoke of the candles in the church. Mystified, he set radio enâ€" gineers the difficult problem of discovâ€" ering whether smell sensations might be picked up accidentally by the microâ€" phone. It has, however, been a curiâ€" ous mixing of the sensations. Certain people, it seems, can receive a brainâ€" message corresponding to one sense when another sense is stimulated. Taste sensations are not infrequently produced at the sight of foodâ€"hence the expression, "making one‘s mouth water."‘ It is well known that a cornet player may be put right off his stroke by the sight of a person sucking lemâ€" on. Colorâ€"hearing is another form of this abnormality. Many people see colourâ€" and colour combinations when they hear the sound of motorâ€"car horns, while others can discern colours in the rattling of knives and forks in a restaurant kitchen. There is one woman, it is said, to whom milk tastes yellow, sweets taste blue, and all unâ€" pleasant tastes are brown.
