It is that she is loyal to her convictions. But among the timeâ€"servers who sit around her she is a voice in the wildâ€" etness, Reference was made last week in he Advance to the death at Ottawa on Wednesday of last week of Joseph H. Baron, father of Mrs. Jean Pare, of Timmins. In referring to this death, The Ottawa Journal of last Thursday, May 15th, says:â€"*"The death of a lifeâ€" long resident of Ottawa, Joseph Henri Baron, occurred yesterday (Wednesâ€" day) at his residence, 65 Bolton street, Ottawsas, after a short illness. At the time of death Mr. Baron was 53 years of age. Mr. Baron was born in Ottawa and lived here all his life. For 20 years he was an employee of Bate Sons, Ltd., and later was a wellâ€"known emjiloyee of the International Paper Company Ltd. He was a devoted member of the Basilica and a member of the Society of Frenchâ€"Canadian Artisans. His death will be regretted by his many friends in the Capital. Surâ€" viving are his widow, nee Alice Freshet; two daughters, Mms. Jeanne Pare and Mme. Yvette Bordeleau; two sons, Jeanâ€"Marie and Paul; and two sisters, Mme. I. Courtemanche and Mme. J. Vincent, ail of Ottawa. The funeral will take place on Friday morning at 745 from the residence, 65 Bolton street, to the Basilica, where requiem high mass will be chanted. Interment will take place in Notre Dame cemeâ€" tery." "That in the near future arrangeâ€" ments would be made for mail to be carried on train No. 46, for Toronto, was the assurance given local people this week by Col. Mac Lang, M.P. Following complaints from serveral towns along the T. N. O. Railway in regard to the earlier time of deâ€" parture of train No. 2, which carries the southbound mail from these points, Col. Lang took the matter up with the Postmasterâ€"General, with the result that ‘he was assured that an arrangeâ€" ment would be made just as soon as possible. The service on the Toronto train will be in addition to the regular mail service. Letters and other mail will be carried for Toronto and interâ€" vening points, but mail for Ottawa, Montreal, etc., will have to be posted at the earlier hour. The change in the running of the Continental left only a short period between the receipt of mail from Toronto and the closing hour for outgoing mail and there were numerous complaints voiced. Towns farther north felt the inconvenience to a greater extent than in this section, but even here there was little time to answer mail from the city. The banks and cther business organizations found it very inconvenient and the change to the later hour of closing will be generâ€" ally welcomed." Death of Jos. H. Baron at Ottawa Last Wednesday Under the heading: Last Train to Carry Mail to Toronto. Arrangement is Promised by the Postmasterâ€"Generâ€" al Through M.P.‘c Intervention." The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "In our issue of May ist, and in conjunction with citizens from other Temiskaming and Cochrane points, The Speaker expressed disapproval of the change in the mail service necessitated by the advancing of the running time of train No. 2 and the retarding of the time of No. 46. In many cases the change meant a twentyâ€"four hour deâ€" lay in answering mail from the south. On Monday, we received a teleohone communication from Mr. Mac Lang, M.P., informing us tha‘t he had taken the matter up with the postal authoriâ€" ties at Otawa and had received assurâ€" ances to the effect that just as quickly as arrangements could be made the mail would also be carried on No. 46 from Timmins and intermediate points througch Cochrane and Temiskaming districts. This improvement will be appreciated by our business men, and espzscially by those whose financial business runs in‘to considerable volume, such as our banking and brokerage houses." In answer to letters from the Timâ€" mins board of trade and the town council here Jos. A. Brade‘tte, MP., wrote commenting on the reasonable nature of the request for proper mail service to Toronto from Timmins and other points along the T. N. O., and promising that he would do all posâ€" gible to have the service to Toronto reâ€" established. In a letter to The Adâ€" vance Mr. Bradette said that he was working on the case and had the coâ€" operation of Col. Mac Lang, M.P. for South Temiskaming. Information given in the south riding by Col. Mac Lang last week suggests that there is hope of the service on Train No. 46 being reâ€"established at an early date as the following two paraâ€" graphs will show. In referring to the matter The New Llskeard Speaker last week says:â€" SAYS MAIL SERVIGE TO BE PUT BAGK ON TRAIN NO. 46 Col. Mac Lanrg, M.P. for South Temisâ€" kaming, Gives Assurances that Mail Service to Toronto to be KReâ€" established Soon as Posâ€" sible, ¢ PDorcupine Mdpante Simcoe Reformer:â€"If John Robinâ€" son, Ottawa, had any intentions 0o® taking "French leave‘"‘ from the Kemptville jail when he forced an inâ€" ner cell lock, he quickly changed his mind when he came upon several cases of confiscated beer. Being of a genâ€" erous nature he immediately comâ€" menced passing out the bottles to other knights of the road confined in other eells, Police arrived before the reâ€" freshments had all been served. In addition to the presentation 0o: statistics by localities the report conâ€" tains tables classifying the parents of children bornm during the year under such rubrics as age, racial origin and birthâ€"place while pesrsons marrying and decedents are also classified under similar headings. Special attention is given to the treatment of causes of death according to age, nativity and conjugal condition, while the occupaâ€" tion of the decedent also receives treatâ€" ment for some specified causes. There are special tables dealing with the viâ€" tal statistics of the Yukon and the Northwest Territories and also for the Indian population. A special feature appearing for tne first time in the present report is an appendix showing the order of birth of children born in 1927 in each province of Canadd classified by age of mother. This table throws a very valuable light on fertility in the various provinces. The report contains a very full anâ€" alytical introduction. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics has just issued the seventh annual reâ€" port of vital statistics covering the year 1927. Although the most important figures for that year were issued by the Bureau in 1928 in the preliminary anâ€" nual report, the present volume which contains the detailedâ€"analyses for perâ€" manent record, has many features 0o: great interest. FINAL REPORT OF VITAL STATISTICS FOR YEAR 1929 â€"â€"The "Empress of Britain‘‘ will be the largest ship Luilt in Great Britain since 1914. ___ ‘"We are greatly gratified", said Mr. Beatty, to learn that His Royal Highness has promised to find time to go up to the Clyde to sponsor our new ship. ‘The Prince of Wales is one of the busiest men in Europe, and I take it that he has been led to do so out of his love ‘or this country and his keen interest in all things Canadian‘‘. . _ _ #> Aroyal compliment to Canada as much as to the Canadian Pacific‘, was the opinion of E. W. Beatty, chairman and president of the Canadian Pacific Railway and chairman of the Canadian Pacific Steamships, Ltd., when @nnouncing that His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales had consented to act as sponsor of the new giant liner of the Canadian Pacific fleet, the "Empress of Britain." Prince of Wales to Launch Empress of Britain TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MAY 22ND, 1930 The prac:mg of Howey Gold Mines on a production basis has had a stiâ€" mulating effect on mining operations in the Red Lake district as a whole. says The Toronto Mail and Empire. At the present time several companies with large holdings in this and the Woâ€" man Lake field are arranging for finâ€" ancial assistance to develop their proâ€" perties. The Red Lake Gold Shore mines, located to the northwest of Howey, has completed a financing deal and proposes to start development work at an early date. The Nortrica Mining Company is ancther which is preparing for an early start on its property in the Red Lake area. The announceâ€" ment that regular freight and passenâ€" ger service by boat and airplane from Hudson to Woman and Red Lake points was started yesterday, will give further impetus to development in these localiâ€" ties While opening traffic was light, it is expected that shiiments of minâ€" ing equipment and supplies will gain momentum as the season advances. "The warm weather has dried up the woods to a great extent and there is an everâ€"present danger, which will conâ€" tinue until it rains some or the leaves reach the stage where they will afford protection. Too much care cannot be exercised by all who go into the bush. Some woodsmen are expressing the opinion that this is going to be a bad summer for fires." ACTIVE SEASON FOR RED AND WOMAN LAKE AREAS "There have been some rather seriâ€" ous fires in Nipissing district and the Forestry men there have been kept busy during last week. On the Quebec side of Lake Temiskaming there was considerable smoke to be seen from here on Sunday, but no serious conflaâ€" grations have been reported. It is thought that land clearing ophkrations were chiefly responsible. "When these two fires were at their height a call was sent in for the foresâ€" try men of this immediate district, but they were out in Firstbrook township fighting a blaze there which had beâ€" come threatening. All available help was secured for the fighting in Lorrain and the fires were gotten partly under control before night. The wind went down in the evening, the night remainâ€" ed calm and by Monday morning the greatest of the darrer had passed. The fire rangers went to Lorrain on Monday, after the Firstbrook fire had been controlled. "Anciher fire in the same section crossed the rightâ€"ofâ€"way of the new transmission line of the Canada Northâ€" ern Power Corporation, between the Upper Notch and the Old Mission, burning some poles, according to reâ€" ports from that section. The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "Three forest fires of comparatively small proportions occurred in this disâ€" trict on Sundzsy last, following the conâ€" tinued dry weather and hot spell. At two points in Lorrain there were rather bad blazes, one near Vahey‘s farm on the Lorrain Road, which, before it was finally overcome reached within 50 feet of the farm house. There was some damage done to fences, etc., but it was not serious and the buildings escaped. Damage Done by Forest Fires in Lorrain Area The ‘"Empress of Britain‘"‘, besides being the greatest liner entering a Canadian port, will be the most palatial and upâ€"toâ€"date vessel afloat and, with her speed, will make possible a transatlantic crossing of five days or less between Canada and Great Britain, and will greatly shorten the journey between Europe and Canada and the Middle and Western States. The mammoth liner will be in service next summer, making regular voyages between Southampton. Cherbourg and Quebec. The ceremonial launching, at which the Prince of Wales will be the central fgure, will take place at the Clydeside yards of John Brown Company, the builders, on June 11, which, incidentally will be the first anniversary of the opening of largest hotel in the British Empire, the Royal York, Toronto, by the Governorâ€"General of Canada. Toronto Mail and Empire:â€"The city will practice foolish economy if it reâ€" fuses money for the new books which are required by branches of the pBublic library. The reading habit is a proâ€" fiivanle one to encourage. Nothing in life has attained perfecâ€" tion and evolution as an eternal, everâ€" continuing advancement. The evoluâ€" tion of advertising will not stop with its by medicine and jurispruâ€" dence but that adoption will establish another mileâ€"stone of progress.â€" Bridgeburg Review. That was evolution of advertising, until today advertising plays a part in every phase of life and is the working instrument of all except the doctor and the lawyer, who still consider its "unâ€" ethical" to advertise for business. He may place his "card" in the newspaper, but it is professionally forbidden for the doctor or the lawyer to inform the public of his capabilities. In this conversion to advertising, business was soon followed by industry, commerce and the professions. The benefits of advertising had made themâ€" selyes manifest in each step, forward. Business is ever the standard bearer and apostle of progress, and so it was business which discovered that adverâ€" tising was a vital factor in all growth. When advertising was admitted to the fireside of business it was not the big business of toâ€"day. Big business traces its beginning with its employâ€" ment of advertising. Advertising has proven itself to be the barometer of progress. It has not been long since business aqvertising was as severely critized and ridiculed as boasting of personal qualiâ€" fications. At the same time there was a little faith in the claims of advertiseâ€" ments as in the claims of the braggart. Only the quack and the imposter, who had everything to gain and nothing to lose, then resorted to advertising. ADVERTISING PROVEN TO BE THE BAROMETER OF PROGRESS The late Roger Roberge was a son of J. H. Roberge, of Driftwood, and the lad was very popular with his fellow stuâ€" denits. The sad death has cast a gloom over the academy and the district, and there is the very deepest sympathy felt for those bereaved by this tragic acciâ€" Some days ago a sad drowning acciâ€" dent occurred at Monteith when Roger Roberge, a seventeenâ€"yearâ€"old lad whose home was at Driftwood, near Cochrane, was drowned in the river at Monteith. _ Young Roberge, who was attending the academy at Monteith, went swimming in the river, two other lads, Len Campbell and L. Melville beâ€" ing with him according to the reports from Monteith. There is understood to be a standing rule at the academy against bathing in the river and this rule is expected to be specially observâ€" "ed in the opening and closing days of the season when conditions are conâ€" sidered especially dangerous. The boys being good swimmers apparently disergarded the rule and tragedy unâ€" fortunately resulted. According to the accounts of the tragedy, Roberge went too far from shore and was caught by the swift current. The other two lads made a very determined and plucky effort to save young Roberge. Indeed, it was only by a narrow escape that Campbell did not also lose his life in his attempts to rescue Roberge. Campâ€" bell was pulled out of the river in an unconscious condition but the efforts to revive him were fortuniately successâ€" ful. It was a couple of days before the body of young Roberge was reâ€" covered from the waters. Coroner W. J. Grummet, of Ansonville, was notiâ€" fied, and made an investigation of the accident. After securing all the facts in the case the coroner decided that an inquest with a coroner‘s jury was not necessary, the death being clearly due to death by drowning through misadâ€" ven‘ture.
