Dunfield of Power Company Store The last issue of The C.N.P.C. Reâ€" view, issued monthly for the employees of the Canada Northern Power Comâ€" pany, Limited, give the following breezy sketch of Harry W. Dunfield, manager of the Timmins store of the company: "The fine photo reproduced above is ample evidence that the climate of Northern Ontario is eminently suited for the development of fine big speciâ€" mens of humanity, for Harry is as big as he is good looking, which indicates that he stands considerably over six feet in his socks. "While the North can claim to have put the finishing touches to his phyâ€" sique, he was born away down South in Saint Louis, Mo., but was moved around considerably by his parents beâ€" only \ fore starting school at Kingsbury, Queâ€" bec. Later he went to St. Francis Colâ€" lege at Richmond, Quebec, finally gradâ€" uating at Lennoxville High School. ‘"His first attempt at proving that the world owed him a living was made in the employ of the Sherbroke Street Railway, after which he started an apâ€" prenticeship of four years with Southâ€" ern Canada Power Co., Ltd., in the course of which he went through the various departments. "In 1923, he went to Denver, Colorado where for two years he was with the Apex Electrical Company, in the Sales and Collection Department. While at Denver he spent a few months at the pleasant task of driving sightâ€"seers through, across, round and over the Rocky Mountains. "Returning in 1926 to Lennoxville, he secured a@a position with the Electrical Service Corporation at Shawinigan Falls, where he stayed a few months before joining the CN.P.C. Family at Haileybury. His experience with us or his association in the County Town were evidently of such a pleasing naâ€" ture that although he has been transâ€" ferred first to Cobalt and later to Timâ€" mins, he still favours Haileybury when he has a few days‘ leisure. "HMe is unmarried, but we would not advise the girls to waste too much time angling, as Harry appears to be a pretty determined man when once his mind is made up, and that seems to be its condition at the present time." Boston â€" Advertiser:â€"New â€" England has never asked for farm relief alâ€" though it was there that the passing stranger sympathized with the hand who was picking stones in a field. To which the latter replied: "Listen, broâ€" ther, I ain‘t as poor as I look; I don‘t own this place." Huntsville Forester:â€"Deer are yardâ€" ing unusually close to Huntsville this year, according to observations made by members of the Huntsville Game Association, and an appeal has gone out to prevent their molestation, by keeping dogs tied up. The deep snow makes it impossible for deer to move easily, and they fall a convenient prey to dogs and wolves. Owners of dogs, bath in town and throughout the townâ€" ships, are urged to coâ€"operate with the association in protecting the deer, and thus building up the possibilitiee for more successful and enjoyable sport during the hunting season. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO INDICATIONS QC OIL IN _ _ _ THE JAMES BAY REGION In view of recent conflicting stateâ€" ments concerning the presence of oil in the James Bay district of Northern Ontario, the James Bay Basin Oil Co. of Montreal announce that in their drilling of structes last year definite showings of oil were encountered at depth of 487 feet. This was in hole No. 1, drilled by the D. J. Alesander Diaâ€" mond Drili Co., on their island properâ€" ties in the Moose River, Northern Onâ€" tario. It is also interesting to note that at a depth of 229 feet salt water and gas pressure were encountered. These conditions are favourable to the presâ€" ence of oil, according to geologists. The James Bay Basin O Co. is the only private company operating in the district where the Ontario Government has been so successful in finding lignite and bituminous coal. The coal seams discovered by the Government are 10 miles east of this company‘s territory, and it is expected that they may be found to underlie the southern end of its islands. "In 1920 he returned to our organizaâ€" tion as meter reader at Haileybrry, and New Liskeard, being transferred in 1927 to Cobalt Substation as operator, which led to his promotion to the system operâ€" ating department, where he takes his turn as System Operator. Oh yes, he is married, in fact, has been since 1920, and the kiddie in the picture is one of five." Whon Mrs. Alice Mitchell, a Serbian woman failed to answer to her name in Cobali police court last week to reply :o two charges of fortureâ€"telling, her bail of $200.00 was estreated and a warâ€" for nher arrest was issued by Maâ€" gistrate Atkinson. According to reâ€" ports from North Bay it would appear that the woman went from Cobalt to North Bay a‘ter the charges were laid against her and the bail put up. It is alleged that Mrs. Mitchell told the fortunes of provincial constables Joseph Sample and Ralph Creszier, who visitâ€" ed her place on Lang street in mufti and their evidence forms the basis of the one chargs. The other laid at the instance of Mrs. Marie Secco, an Itaiâ€" ian resident of the town, who claims, it is said, that she paid $61 to the Serb woman. WOMAN CHARGED AT COBALT LEAVES BAIL MONEY BEHIND "On his return he worked for the Town of Haileybury, and later for the T. N. O. Railway at the freight sheds. Calgary Albertan:â€"It was a very conscientious chemist in Aberdeen who, when a customer left his change on the counter, attempted to call him back by tapping on the window with a sponge. "The following April he enlisted and served overseas with the Second Canaâ€" dian Infantry Battalion. "He first saw the light in Westport, Ont., during the Diamond Jubillee year. In due time he attended the Public and High schools of that town, and when the time came for a decision to be made as to his life carcer, he first decided that he would become a baker, but eight meonths‘ experience was suflicient to comnvince him that making bread was not his forte. So he turned his attenâ€" tion to office work, taking a course of stenography at Brockville Business Colâ€" lege. "In 1913, he came to Cobalt where he started with Northern Ontario Light Power Company as office boy, and in March 1915, went to Timmins,, which he left later in the same year to return to Westport. Following her arrest, Mrs. Mitchell had been lodged in the district jail at Haileybury, but subsequently she was released on cash bail. It is said that she had applied for permission to open an office or whatever may be the right name for the place, but that the Coâ€" balt council did not favour any such plan, evidently believing that palmists phrenologists, etc., may well be done without. The following sketch is given in the last issue of The CN.P.C. Review of W. J. McKee, who was in 1915 a memâ€" ber of the Power Co‘s staff at Timmins: "One â€"of the bestâ€"known men throughout our organization is Mr. W. J. McKee.for thoss who did not make his acquaintance during the time he was employed at one or other of our branch offices have heard Bill‘s voice while on duty at the system operating room. SKETCH OF W. J. McKEE, OF THE POWER COMPANY STAFF Taking strong exception to a proposal to prohibit all exportation of pulpwood from Canada, the manager of the Porâ€" cupine Pulp and Lumber Co., states his position, and the position of the small pulpwood producers in a letter to the press which follows: To the Editor: OBJEGTS TO PROPOSED EMBAREO ON PULPWOOD Embargo Would Leave Owner of Pulpâ€" wood Without a Margin for His Wood, Says Manager of Porâ€" cupine Pulp Co. Sir: The press recently reported that the Hon. Georges Parent, M.P., planned to introduce a resolution calling for an embargo or exportation duty on pulpâ€" wood, coupled with such legislation, if necessary, as would assure settlers a fair remuneration for the wood taken from their lands. As a producing Canadian pulpwood company, as a member of the Canadian Pulpwood Association and as indiviâ€" duals, we wish to go on record as opâ€" posed to any such discriminating legisâ€" lation. Mr. Parent‘s proposal is in direct contradiction of the rights of priâ€" vate property holders, and it is against these private property holders that Mr. Parent‘s proposal is directed. Eightyâ€"five percent. of Canada‘s timâ€" ber area is owned in right of the crown, and pulpwood cut from such areas canâ€" not be exported ; only pulpwood cut from the small remainder of 15 percent., conâ€" sisting of freeholds and settlers‘ lots, can now be exported. Any embargo or exportation duty on pulpwocd from these lands will practically leave the owner without a margin for his wood, regardless of the intention of the govâ€" ernment to regulate the price. Any embargo or duty will throw the jobber or producer on the mercy of the Canaâ€" dian paper mills, There are already too many paper mills in the country. It is common knowledge that there is an overproduction of paper so that the majority of the mills are operating at about 75 percent of their capacity. Where will the freehold and settler producer find a market, and how can he be protected in the face of such a situation? Instead of closing the best market to these producers, the honourâ€" able member could accomplish good instead of evil by directing his efforts toward opening up further markets. PORCUPINE PULP LUMBER COMPANY, LIMITED, Niagara Falls, N.Y. In police court at Cornwall, Ontario, last week the magistrate upheld tae stand of teachers who insisted that parents must provide pupils who have been absent from school with notes of excuse. H. Bowels, farmer, was fined $5 and costs for refusing to send notes to a school teacher in school section C of Cornwall Township when his children had been repeatedly absent from classes. The case was in the nature of a test, the charge being laid by Schceoil Attendance Officer S. G. Lawson to deâ€" termine the exact power of the teacher to demand excuse notes. COURT UPHOLDS TEACHER‘S STAND RE EXCUSE NOTES Dominion Explorers, Ltd., which is preparing to start immediately on an extensive mining exploration campaign in connection with its various properâ€" ties, has just completed a satisfactory financial deal whereby a strong finanâ€" cial group has underwritten a block of $1,300,000 shares at 50 cents per share, according to C. D. H. McAlpine, presiâ€" dent. The deal assures the company $650,000 with which to continue explorâ€" ation and development operations. Dominion Explorers has an extensive programme manpped out for 1930 and the proceeds of the new issue will be applied to this account. Diamond drilling at the Axis Lake property, in the Lake Athabasca district, was carâ€" ried out last winter. Results showed a large amount of lowâ€"grade ore near the surface, but values at depth were nol sufficiently high to assure commercial possibilities. This property now aApâ€" pears to be a deep geological belt and will require considerable expenditure to prove its real merit. The manageâ€" ment has therefore decided to disconâ€" tinue work until some future date, when it may be able to see its wiy clear to carry out the necessary work to depth. Drumheller Mail:â€"A clergyman was leaving one parish for anothner, and | was taking with him the younger of hs| two curates, is said to have taken the text of his farewell sermon from a well- known passage in the Book of Genesis: "Abide ye here with the ass, and I and‘ the lad will go yonder and worship." OPINION OF WILL ROGERS ON PROHIBITION IN U.S.A Writing in a recent issue of Th New York Times Will Rogers, the huâ€" morist, gives his opinion on prohibition in the United States as follows:â€" "The wets have just shown that you can get a drink, and it‘s bad for the country. Now the drys start, and will show that you can‘t get a drink, and it‘s good for the country. In the meantime there are at least 90,000,000 living in the country that it‘s not aftâ€" fecting in any way and that wish both sides would shut up and go to work. "If papers announced that they would quit printing what either side said, the 90,000,000 would feel so reâ€" lieved that they would celebrate with a grand spree and then sober up for the rest of their lives."
