THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Pioneering Route for Transâ€"Canada Highway The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasâ€" ing, last week had following reference to a proposed plan for pioneering the route of the Transâ€"Canada highwayâ€" _ "Mr. E. Wharton Shaw of Hamilton, Ont.. connected with the Sawyerâ€"Masâ€" sey Co., was in Kapuskasing this week in connection with project he has lauuched for bridging the roadway gap between Hearst and Winnipeg. He has spent some days at Engleheart, New Liskeard, Cochrane and other Northâ€" ern points enlisting active support for his scheme, and proceeded from here to Hearst. After leaving there he will go on to Winnipeg, thence to Fprt William, and finally coming back this way again. Mr. Wharton represents a group of Canadian manufacturers of roadâ€" machinery who have joined together each contributing one or more pieces of equipment, to conduct a tour from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasts unâ€" der their own power, and thus blaze the way for a national highway.

The Northland Post of Cochrane released some press matter which had been isâ€" sued in advance, and two weeks ago described how the motorcade had got as far as Temagami; but the fact is that a start was never made at all, this being postponed until 1931. "Mr. Wharton is seeking the coâ€"oprrâ€" ation of boards of trade and other Northern interests in financing the proâ€" position and giving it publicity,.

When public opinion so strongly endorses the proâ€" ject, reinforced by repeated demands of many nationâ€"wide representative orâ€" ganizations, it becomes necessary to route may be settled in the next few weeks, just prio# to the opening of the emergency session of the new parliaâ€" ment, and an early start would be made on construction work on the unâ€" built gaps. If the advocates of the Northern route hope to have their case c@nsidered by the new cabinet (Which will include Fort William cabinet minister) it would seem to be necesâ€" sary to forthwith organize a nonâ€"partâ€" isan highways association to present and push their arguments. The matâ€" ter of route will probably not be left over till next spring at all, but actual work on the road may likely be done before snow flies." *#_® d ## w ## LAd ## #.® *# . 25c 2.50 39¢ SCHUMACHER 22c 31c 65¢ 33¢ 43¢ 133 PER BAG Fresh made daily Per Lb, makes the most deâ€" licious cakes.

Members of the Town Council ana particularly the Board of Works are priding themselves upon the cleanliâ€" ness of downtown streets, which have received special attention this summer. The officials deserve all the compliâ€" ments bestowed upon them by citiâ€" zens for this innovation. At the same time the town fathers should carry the cleanup further by enacting a bylaw to prevent the distribution of bills. from house to house and by making it an offence to throw waste paper of any kind, on other people‘s lawns.
