This decrease however, was more than offset by the gain at Kirkland Lake, where a total of $4,063,616 was recovered for the quarter, as against $3,415,742 a year ago Ontario‘s mineral production for the first three months of 1930 registered an increase of $1,383,632, or 7 per cent. above the production for the corresâ€" ponding tphrriod in 1929, according to the quarterly statement of the Departâ€" ment of MinesJ}issued last week by Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines. Production of nickel and copper for the quarter shows that the exprnding development previously reported has been well maintained. Daspite the low price for silver, the output of this minâ€" eral showed a considerable gain over the first three months of 1929. No iron ores from Onitario mines were smelted during the quarter. All ores charged were imported, as formerly, from the United States. tribmal shall draw from all circumâ€" stances of the case all reasonable inâ€" ferences in the applicant‘s favour.

SEEK THE POETRY OF EARTH IN THE SHADOWS OF LFE "The Poetry of Earth Whose Mus Ceaseth Never" is the Subject of Essay by Jessie Farley, Formerâ€" ly of Timmins High School. A reader of The Advance last week sent in a copy of "St. Joseph Lillgs,_" "The Lure of Ireland"; "Three Valiant Women"; "The Dream of Gerontius", by Dr. Catherine A. Burns; "The Exâ€" istence of Hell," by Rev. K. J. McKae; "Addison as an Essayist"; "The Group of Seven in Canadian Art"; "The Greatness of Dr. Johnson"; "Influence of Women": and many others as well as notes about the students and the college. The reader of The Advance was particularly interested in the esâ€" say, "The Poetry of Earth is Ceasing Never," by Jennie Farley, ‘32 This will also hold special interest for Adâ€" vance readers generally, Mss Farley being a resident of Timmins for severâ€" al years during which time she was ons of the most brilliant pupiis at the Timâ€" mins High School. Her literary gifts were noted then and several of her compositions were published in The Advance. Her essay, "The Poeiry of Barth is Ceasing Never," as published the quarterly magazine of St. Joseph‘s College, St. Alban street, Toronto. The magazine is for March, 1930, and its table of contents is a most interesting one, including articlee headed as folâ€" lows:â€""The Glory of Family Life"; in "St. Joseph Lilies" for March, 1930, is as follows:â€" "They say this is the day of enlightâ€" enment, the day of advancement, of reality. It is the day of racing cars, swooping planes and multiâ€"coloured lights, blinking their bold message to the hurrying passerâ€"by. the magic of distance, the lure of the purrde hills, and of the blue ridge where the sky dipped into the unâ€" known. The rows on rows of street lights have done much to blind us to the beauty of the first shades of dusk mingling with departing day. The white stare of hundreds on hundreds of apartment windows, show windows, hall windows, banish the darkness, givâ€" ing us the steady glare of the workaday world,â€"yes, and the wavering glare of a play o0‘ night world. “Certaivnly- the wheels of the swift trains have done much to take away earth seek it in the shadows. In the rush and bustle of main street of life you may catch a glimpse of it, but only a glimpse, for the next sign and the next will crowd up and hide it from you. For the postry of earth lies aâ€"tip the bud of a flower, or lilts in the singâ€" ing of a booklet or glistens in a loveâ€" ly thought, the brook may quench the thirst of a weary traveller and sing of hope and journey‘s end; and the fowâ€" er may be broken by the hand of love and passed on to another. And should that cther later pass lonely chapel where behind the tiny glow of a small red lamp waits the Prisoner of Love, and lay the opened flower to spread its faint perfume o‘er the altar,â€"flower of joy becomes flower of prayer,â€"is this nct the hidden poetry of earth? "There are many who cannot hear the poetry of earth. The passing wheels and horses‘ feet, the clang of street cars, and the cries of newshoys, zeep its voice from their dinâ€"accusâ€" tomed ears. Could they stop and think, let the shadows close around them of an evening and listen; listen for the waterfall of childhood daysâ€" it was peopled by naiads and meraids, that stream,â€"listen for the memoried voices of loved ones; listen for the hidden motive that would make that act of harshness of this morning seenmi merely a misunderstanding; watch with toâ€"day and listen for the footsteps of toâ€"morâ€" row:; then bit by bit it would return. During the past week or two several cars have come up the Ferguson highâ€" way to Timmins, the cars coming ’from such centres as Sudbury, North Bay, Toronto, Detroit, Buffalo and New ' York City. Although it is early in the season the roads may be considered as open for traffic in this North Land. Little by little it would creep into their hearts, that posetry of earth; until they could carry the music of it even into the drab world of business and cold, calculating thought. "and when that lyricism sings withâ€" in us, its voice slipping easily through the shouted commands of necessity, let us pass it on. Pass it on to the child by a smile of comradeship. Pass it on to the tired mother by an understandâ€" MAJOR GEO,. E.

It is anâ€" nounced that Col. Lang is resigning his command, following the usual pracâ€" tice of relinquishing it at the end of three years. Major Don Cameron, of Sudbury, is the likely appointment, as second in command,. to succeed Major Cole. The new chief and his assistant will be in charge when the Aigenquins go to camp in July.

The Ferguson highway will eventuâ€" ally be built to James Bay, Hon. W. Finlayosn tokl the people of North Bay ‘last week. The statement was made at a banquet tendered Hon. Mr. Finlayson and the members of the Toronto Board of Trade party touring the North. The banquet was given by Geo, W. Lee, chairman of the T. N. O. Railway Commission. In addition to the visiâ€" tors from Toronto, members of the North Bay city council and board of trade and a large number of the citiâ€" Hon. Mr. Finlayson in his address to the gathering touched upon the Ferâ€" guson highway and its value to the North. He also referred to plans for the future in the way of improvements and extensions. He said that he had found the Ferguson highway between Temagami and North Bay in good conâ€" dition. The touring party had made this part of the trip by auto over the highway and had been well pleased with the road at this time of the year. HMHon. Mr. Finlayson told the gathering that extensive improvements are planâ€" ned on the highway between North Bay and Huntsville within the next two years. In four years‘ time he hoped there would be a hardâ€"surfaced roadâ€" way ‘all the way from Toronto to North Bay. When the railway bridge over the Moose river is constructed in connecâ€" tion with the extension of the T. N. O. Railway to James Bay Mr. Finlayâ€" son said that provision would also be made for a highway bridge. This was in preparation for the eventual extenâ€" sion of the Ferguson highway t’hrough to James Bay. Other strakers at the banquet inâ€" cluded:â€"Mayor Rowe, of North Bay; J. H. McDonald, preésident of the North Bay Board of Trade; C. L. Burton; Frark Ralph, president of the Toronto Roard of Trade; Horace Grant, C.P.R.; wW. T. Moodie, general superintendent, C.N.R., Nonth Bay; T. Hambley, general superintendent, CP.R., North Bay; J. H. Gundy, and General D. M.

Last week Council Trudeel of the Cobalt council resigned as chairman of the board of works committee and refused to further act on the commitâ€" tee,, the resignation following a motion passed in council to the effect that the town foreman, Bert Sopha, be definiteâ€" ly allowed the right to hire and fire men under him. The councillors pressing the motion held that only in this way could council expect to hold competent men in the town employ. Some of the councillors also held that there had been interference in the hirâ€" ing and firing of men with consequent lack of economy and success for the department. It was claimed that the woerk had been more costly this year on account of the town foreman not having a free hand. As a protest against the motion passed Councillor Trudell resigned as chairman of the board of works committee.

Simmons, of New Liskeard, will read the following paragraph from The New Liskeard Speaker with much regret, feeling that the loss of Rev. Mr. Simmons is not only a loss for New Liskeard and district but also for the whole North Land. Rev. Mr. Simmons has visited Timmins on a number of occasions and has many friends here who will feel the loss to the North through his removal. He will be folâ€" lowed with the kindliest of good wishes to his home. Under the appropriate heading, "A Beloved Pastor," The New Liskeard Speaker last week said:â€""Tne people of the town in general, and the local Baptist Church in particular have suffered a severe loss in the removal from New Liskeard of the Rev. Geo. N. Simmons, who left by motor for his new home in Cobourg, on Monday last. Mr. Simmons has been pgstor of the Baptist church here for the past nine years. During that period the original church was burned to the groundâ€" (just four years ago, on Mother‘s Day, 1926)â€"but Mr. Simmons guided his POPULAR PASTOR LEAVES NEW LISKEARD FOR COBOURG ‘Il}'{ ;{ }‘I /( l({/ ffi ‘; § !“?

He help+â€" ed carry on meetings at Hilliardton, Brethour, Casey and even as far north as Dack, and at times, to Dane. Wherever he went he was loved and always welcomed." The Sudbury Star last week says:â€" "A letter has been received by the town clerk from the Harry Lottridge Shows refusing the proposition made them by the council. In former years the liâ€" cense fee of $600 has been turned over to the Children‘s Aid Society. Mr. Lottridge was informed that he could play here for one week provided he turned $1,600 over to the Children‘s Aid. He replied that that was too much for one week, but he would be willing to phy $1,600 for the weeks of June 9 and July 28, no other shows to play in the meantime. The mayor will inform him that he cannot have the week of July 28, as the Rotary Club has charge of the celebration that day." Always crisp and fresh. Extra easy to digest. Serve with milk or cream.
