Another man in the group took occasion to get away safely. .The three men will likely come before _ Magistrate Atkinson this (Thursday) afternoon. Provincial Officer Hartlieb receiving complaints of disorderly conduct and undue noise in Moneta went out to the Mcneta Mine property on Wednesday of this week and there found some men in the bush enjoying a keg of wine. Three of the men were placed under arrest and Officer Hartlieb after putâ€" ting the handcuffs on the men was able Three Men Arrested for Breach of Liquor Laws as all the necessary information is in hand the case is disposed of. Within three days the injured workman reâ€" ceives his initial cheque. It is a prompt and scientific system of social legislation; The board works smoothly and expeâ€" ditiously. As soon as an accident is reported forms are sent out. As soon Some large individual claims are settled by the board. One man, totally blinded, received $25.000. In connecâ€" tion with the Hollinger mine disaster, in which 38 men were killed, the beneâ€" fits awarded by the board amounted to $150,000. The amount would have been much larger if all the men who were killed had been married. In 1929 it awarded benefits amountâ€" ing to $8,012,157. Since it began to function it has awarded benefits amounting to $78,480,206. And the most significant thing about these figâ€" ures is that they represented for the most part payments which the inâ€" jured workmen, or the dependents of workmen killed, would not have received if the Workmen‘s Compensation Act had not operated. These are samples of the odd cases that come before the boardâ€"some of the unusual angles of a wonderful machine that serves the man who works with his hands. There is much more to the working of the board than meets the eye of the casual observer. It is a complicated machine with threeâ€" fold powers, in that it adjudicates, .inâ€" sures and assesses. One workman came to the board askâ€" | ing for compensation because while following his occupation, he had swalâ€" lowed his false teetth. He was granted | compensation. In the case of that twin fatality the board decided against compensation on the grounds that both the victims were killed as a result of their own carelessness, and not in the course of their work. Some time later several of the deâ€" ceased‘s friends examined the. switch to satisfy their curiosity. One of them attempted to demonstrate how the accident had taken place. His hands were wet. He touched the switch and crumpled to the floorâ€"dead. One of the strangest cases ever conâ€" sidered by the board was that of a man who worked in a brewery. He had deâ€" veloped the habit of sampling the brew rather freely, and to clear the resulting fogs from his mind he hit upon the idea of touching a jackâ€"knife electric switch with his fingers. This contact gave him an electric shock sufficient to sober him up templorarily. One day, however, his hands were wet, and when he touched the switch he was fatally electrocuted. _ Another man limped into the board‘s office on crutches. He had broken his leg while at work. The board awarded compensation. The man went home, but a few days later, while going to the doctor‘s office fpr treatment, he slipped on his crutches, fell to the sidewalk and broke his leg again. It was decided that as the man‘s second accident was caused by the first, he should receive additional compensation. A peculiar case was that of a lightâ€" houseâ€"keeper who while on duty in his lonely tower, was shot by a stray bullet from a deer hunter‘s rifle. The bullet went into his eye, destroying the sight. The man received substantial, compenâ€" sation, on the grounds that the fiying bullets of deer hunters had become a hazard of his calling. The case would seem to indicate that the periis of the deep have not diminished. If deer hunters increase in numbers lightâ€" housekeepers may be obliged to fortify their lofty perches. A great majority of the people in Timmins and district are interested in the Ontario Workmen‘s Compensation Board because the work of this body touches the general welfare of a comâ€" munity ike this very closely practically all the time. Despatches last week from Toronto emphasize the fact that the end of the Great War did not take the element of risk out of men‘s lives and that dangerous callings still abound in these piping days of peace. This is shown by the fact that during 1929 there were 87,103 reported industrial accidents in the province of Ontario. How many unreported accidents there were can only be guessed at, but the number would be large, for the most dangerous of all occupationsâ€"farming â€"aoes not come within the scope of the Workmen‘s Compensation Board of Ontario. The variety of the accidents is amazâ€" ing. Some of the cases border on the ludicrous. Nevertheless, each one is considered carefuly and there is no appeal from the decisions of the board, whicsh consists of V. A. Sinclair, K.C., chairman; H. J. Halford, George A. Kingston and N. B. Wormith, secretary. WORK OF THE GOMPENSATION BOARD OF THE PROVINGE Workmen‘s Compensation Board has Awarded $78,480,206.00 in Comâ€" pensation.

The fee for transient traders in Kirkâ€" land Lake has been raised from $100.00 to $200.00. o i A +. 1 The planes have already put the full force of forty men in the field for Dominion Explorers at various points. The Mackenzie river itself opens in the latter part of May, but ice at Great Slave Lake is generally much delayed not disappearing until the end of June. Much effort will be concentrated at Great Bear Lake, and at Hunter Bay, where important copper surface indiâ€" cations have been shown. Jim Norrie, M.E., is in charge of the exploration work on the finds made in these disâ€" tricts, while three geologists are also there. They are J. C. Rogers, A. G. Ballachey and K. S. Charlton. S. R. Norsworthy, M.E., is on the, Mackenzie river for Dominion Explorers with a further group of men. It is announced that by arrangement with N.A.M.E. J. D. Vance, one of the latter‘s pilots, has also joined Dominion Explorers. Vance was the fiyer who, with another party came out from Baker Lake after a lengthy winter trip by dogâ€"team, etc., when caught in there. Pilot McMillan now has a plane at Great Csar Lake, still fiying with skiis as the breakâ€"up there is quite late. Pontoons for this plane will go down the Mackenzie river on the first boat, probably early in July. Two other pilots, E. A. Broadway, who is now in Winnipeg, and Bill Spence, now in Toronto, are having their plans changâ€" ed over to pontoons for fiying in the Mackenzie river district. Dominion Explorers, Ltd., now have their full force in operation according to Col. C. D. H. McAlpine, president. Three planes will be used this season, and while not as numerous as last year, the work ahead will be much more thorough, as large stretches of northern country will not be covered this year. in other directions. What Portsmouth, Southampton, Swansea, and cother southern clubs have been able to do should, however, not be beyond the capacity of Plymouth and, given the same spirit of loyalty and enthusiasm as their supporters have displayed in the past, the Argyle Club should be able to face the future not only hopeâ€" fully, but with confidence." DOMINION EXPLORERS PLAN NEW WORK IN THE NORTH "In that sense the Argyle team have contributed to the gaiety of the city, and deserve well at its hands. In the future they will probably need even stronger support than they have been accustomed to receive. Promotion to the Second Division will involve longer and more costly journeys for the team, and may also add to the expenditure in other directions. What Portsmouth, "Some remnants are still to be found of an old feeling that professional footâ€" ball is unworthy of the attention of real lovers of sport. It is based partly on the idea that the thousands who are mere spectators of games between men who are paid to play would, be better employed if they were playing themâ€" selves. This however, is to disregard the fact that a very large proportion ot those who fill the stands and line up against the barriers on football grounds are not physically capable of such exâ€" ercises. Still more, it fails to take into account the impossibility of providing playingâ€"fields for such multitudes. Rightly regarded, football stands on the same level as cricket or hockey or any other form of sport which makes calls upon human skill and endurance. It is better to play if you can, but there is nothing wrong in being a lookerâ€"on and deriving enjoyment from appreciaâ€" tion or criticism of the play of others. Indeed, there are very few ways in which peorile with limited resources camn spend time to better advantage. They are in the open air, which in itâ€" self is a good thing, and even if their attention is too much concentrated upâ€" on the game, they forget for a time the serious and more sordid aspects of life. Unlike the majority of supportâ€" ers of horse racing who seldom or never visit a racecourse, they do get something more than the gratification of "spotting a winner." "In that sense the Argyle team have contributed to the gaiety of the city, them play, and that attraction will be increased by the oriportunity which will be afforded next season of witnessâ€" ing! them in competition with players of a different if not a higher class than those against whom they have hitherto been engaged. A friend of The Advance has handec this paper a copy of The Western Morning News of Plymouth England, in which there is extended reference to the recent promotion of the Plymouth Argyle Club to the second division. The reader of The Advance says that Promotion of Plymouth Argyle Football Club THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO again to get the baby but the baby was crawling away from me towards the stove where the blaze was. Burning Andy‘s story is as follows: "The lady who lived in the house was away at the time and her husband was at work. I was playing ball in front of the Tremblay house when the ball rolled toward it. Then I saw smoke coming out through the wall. I shouted ‘Fire‘ and told J. Hardley‘s boy to turn in the alarm. Then I went into the house. The front door was open and I saw a blaze in the kitchen. The wall and the ceiling were on fire and the three kids were there. ‘"‘The oldest was about 7 years old and I told them to come out. They started to cry and did not want to come so I took hold of the boy and the girl and pulled them out. I went in Elsewhere in this issue will be found a despatch from TIroquois Falls in reâ€" gard to the burning of an Ansonville home and the death therein of a small vyoungster. This week an additiona. despatch suggests that a young boy showed remarkable bravery in connecâ€" tion with this fire. This later desâ€" pritch says:â€" The story of a young lad‘s heroism is a thrilling sequel to a fire which destroyed the Tremblay home at Anâ€" conville, burning one of the children to death. Andy is only 11 years of age.. When he discovered the blaze, he ran into the burning building and brought out ‘wo of the three children. The third time he was forced back by the flames and so was unable to complete the rescue. Firemen responded quickly to the alarm but by the time they arrived the house was doomed. The lad, Andy Ronholm, saved two sther children who were trapped in the house alone.

The Dominion Government has proâ€" mised to start letter carrier service in Sudbury in six weeks Whether the service starts then or later depends on the people of Sudbury. Mail cannot be delivered to houses unless a letter slot in the door or a mail box is provided, for, obviously, letters cannot be simply thrown on the verandah, nor have letâ€" ter carriers time to ring every door bell. Notices have been put in all mail boxes asking people to notify their corâ€" respondents that the street number should be put on all letters, as a carâ€" rier service will soon be started. Box rents are also increased to those living within the letter carrier area, as an effort is being made to discourage boxâ€" holding. There will be two deliveries each day. The first will be of the mail arriving before 8 o‘clock in the morning, the second of mail arriving before 1.30 o‘clock. Mail arriving after 1.30 will not be delivered until the next mornâ€" ing, though mail will be sorted, and box holders may get their mail as they do now. Mail should be addressed either to street number, box number or "genâ€" eral delivery," whichever typere of serâ€" vice patrons choose but persons receiyâ€" ing mail by letter carrier to their street number will not be able to get their mail at the general delivery window unless the mail expected is addressed to "general delivery." sSPECIAL TRAIN PLANNED FOR SHRINERS‘ CONVENTION POsSTAL DELIVERY SERVICE FOR SUDBURY INX SIX WEEKS IMIT ED ]NDUST c‘ The same basic chemicals areemployed in themanuâ€" facture of such widely different C.I.L. products as Explosives, Ammunition, Pyralin, Fabrikoid, Duco, New Process Paints, Ferâ€" tilizers, etc. On all of the products of its nine Diwisions,sovaried in usefulness, you will find the C.I.L. tradeâ€" mark as a guarantee of excellent quality and fair price, For Sure Results Try Our Want Ad.
