Timmins Ontario ~17â€"29p 362 MORE ABOUT THE COAST T0 COAST TRIP FOR NEXT YEAR | This enterprise is being promoted j solely in the interests of the completion ~of the Transâ€"Canada Highway via ‘Cochrane, as it is considered that the §lack of complete road communication _within the Dominion, is prejudicial to ‘the progress of Canada. The success i of this expedition depends largely on | proper preparation and it has been ;found necessary to prospect the whole ‘ of the road through Northern Ontario. ‘This work is being undertaken by Mr. E. Wharton Shaw, who is leaving Hamâ€" ilton immediately for this purpose and will spend the next three months blazâ€" ing a trail through the wilderness. The assistance of the Department of Foresâ€" try and the Department of Northern | Development has been obtained. ‘assistance and without making use of ! any railroad right of ways or bridges. | The total distance to be covered is over |4,000 miles and the distance without roads about 400 miles. This roadless territory is all situated in Western Onâ€" | tar io, and the crossing of this by autoâ€" ,moblle under present condition is proâ€" ; bably one of the most difficult enterâ€" l prises of this nature ever att°mpued Some years ago Dr. P. E. Doolittle of§ Toronto made the trip, utilizing a Ford. car. but no attempt was made to cross ’ those portions of Canada which are without roads, this territory bemol crossed on the railroads by the use of . a flanged wheels on the car. A motorâ€"! cycle has also crossed from coast to coast, but in this instance again the] railroad right of way was used, the} cyclist riding between the rails. g Vital Importance of a Transâ€"Canada Highway Emphasized by an Exâ€" pedition Being Organized in Hamilton. Part of Plans Now Under Way. In reference to the meeting of the Northern Asscciated Boards of Trade to be held on Sept. 15th in Cochrane, The Advance has made several referâ€" ences to a plan for an expsdition to go over the route from coast to coast in 1931.. Particulars of this expediâ€" tionary plan are given by the Associatâ€" ed Boards as follows:â€" The vital importance Oof a Transâ€" Canada Highway is emphasized by an expedition which is now being organâ€" ized in Hamilton. This expedition will start early in 1931 from Sidney, Nova Sscotia, and will attempt to cross Canâ€" ada to the west coast of Vancouver Island entirely under its own power, and without any assistance except the use of existing roads. Although the first crossing of the American contiâ€" nent by automobile was accomplished about 26 years ago in the United States, no automobile has yet crossed Canada on its own wheels. The new expedition will consist of a | Ford truck, Sawyerâ€"Massey Trailer and a Fordson tractor and will attempt to traverse Canada without any additional } Up to the present none of the terâ€" ritory between Hearst and Port Arthur has been surveyed, and no information exists as to the costs or difficulties of building a road between these points. and as Mr. Shaw will traverse this route on foot accompanied by an exâ€" perienced road engineér, he expects to return to Hamilton in November with much information which will prove valuable to the authoritiee when the road construction is commenced. The difficulties of crossing Northern Ontario have been carefully considered, and the expedition will be equipped specially to overcome all natural obstaâ€" cles. A Fordson tractor will be carâ€" ried in the trailer for use where no roads exist when it will travel under its own power clearing a way for the truck and trailer. The gasoline necessary will be carried on the trailer in place of the tractor. The trailer would also carry specially designed pontoons and its construction is such that when it is necessary to cross a river all the sides and floor of the trailer will be disâ€" mounted and being bolted to the ponâ€" and floor of the trailer will be disâ€" mounted and being bolted to the ponâ€" tcons will form a raft of sufficient capacity to ficat the expedition across the rivers. The pontoons and many other special pieces of equipment are being made and will be tried out in Hamilton before the expedition leaves. It is planned to leave Sidney N.S., about the first of May 1931, and to proceed via Halifax, St. John, Quebet, Mcontreal, Ottawa, North Bay, Cochâ€" rane, Hearst, Port Arthur, Kenora Winnipeg, Regina, Calgary, Banff, Nelâ€" son,. Vancouver, Victoria, and to terâ€" minate at the westernmost point of Vancouver Island. The whole of the coming winter will be spent in preparâ€" ing the equipment and writing on the subject for newspapers and periodicals throughout Canada and it is anticiâ€" pated that in 1931 the expedition will receive more publicity in Canada than has ever been given to any project of this type. The sponsors of this proposal have advised the Northern Assoâ€" clated Boards of Trade of their intenâ€" tions, and I outline here. as accurately as possible for your information, some of their plans and proposals. They will attempt early in 1831 to make a trip across Canada from coast to coast, using an allâ€"Canadian route, and without recourse to railroad right of way at any point. They will use our highway to Cochâ€" rane, and thence west. They expect to negotiate that section Lroad house, to which place he had trailed the woman and her companâ€" | ions. Evidence already given indicated l that two shots had been heard by peoâ€" { ple ‘in the house after the room in I which the party had been eating had ilboen cleared by the dramatic entry of ‘ Meloche, and it was assumed that Meâ€" | leche had committed suicide after slayâ€" ‘ing the woman, who had left him. Inquest to Open Into Death of Eloi Meloche Now Crown Attorney F. L. Smiley.! K.C., has stated that an inquest into the death of Meloche will be held on Thursday this week. According to Constable Bird, of the Teck township j force, the Crown is in possession of information that would suggest Meâ€" loche was not suicide, but Sergeant George Delves, of provincial police headquarters at Cobalt, and who was engaged in investigating the case at the time, says he has heard nothing new in the matter. The sergeant stated he thought the inquest was for the purpose of closing the case. | Meloche had followed the woman from Timmins to Kirkland Lake, and had broken up a party in the Goodfish The Dominion Day tragedy in a house on the Goodfish road near Kirkâ€" land Lake when two lives were sacriâ€" ficed in a double shooting due, it was alleged, to the jealousy of a man over a woman, is to be probed, it is anâ€" nounced. At an inquest held two days after the affair the coroner‘s jury reâ€" turned a verdict holding Eloi Meloche responsible for the killing of Lucienne Felletier, said to have been his former common law wife, and it considered that Meloche had turned his gun on himself after shooting the woman, alâ€" though there had been no actual eyeâ€" witnesses of his death. of the country now without a road by means of the various mechanical deâ€" vices comprising their equipment. They will gather certain data, enâ€" gingers‘ field notes, etc. while on the journey, which it is claimed.,.will prove of definite value in presenting a case for the construction of the Transâ€" Canada Highway via Cochrane. Preliminary finances have been arâ€" ranged for but other funds will have to be forthcoming to enable the trip to be completed. Mr. Shaw is now west of Cochrane, making a preliminary survey of the country, in an effort to locate the best possible route for his expedition. They hope that this section of the North will assist in this regard. He will arrange to attend the next meeting of the Associated Boards, and present a report.of his work to date. hen the Highland Gathoring and Scottish Music Festival is hoeld at the Banff Springs Hotel, August 29 to September 1, under the patronage of H.

The â€" contending teams will be composed of district players born in England on the one team, and those of Scotch birth on the other. The "England vs. Scotâ€" land" game will be worth coming to see. The proceeds from this game are to be given entirely to the St. John Ambulance Brigade, and the officials of the brigade in keeping with their sloâ€" gan "First Aid to the Injured" have deâ€" cided to place the money received to the purchasing of a patrol ambulance car. It is the intention to have this car on the highway, to render services to those who may become injured in accidents, etc. This alone should help to swell the attendance and all car owners in the district should be on hand to help along this worthy object. The Timmins Citizens‘ Band have genâ€" erously donated their services for the evening and patrons will have a series of selections before the game and durâ€" ing the interval. Benefit Game for S.J.A.B. Should Draw Big Crowd The players are getting into trim and all attending are assured of witnessâ€" ing a very fast and interesting game. The selection committee have done their job well, and say, "May the best team win." The SJ.A.B. men have done their best having given considerâ€" able time to attend every game in the present season. On more than one ocâ€" casion the men on duty have been kept extremely busy, but have done their work most efficiently. It was with the greatest of pleasure to all football enâ€" thusiasts to learn that the Timmins Brigade of the St. John Ambulance had won the championship of Ontario and also the beautiful McCrea trophy. People of the Porecupine can show their appreciation by coming to the Timmins athletic grounds next Saturday (Aug. 30th) witnessing the football game, ‘"England ‘vs. Scotland" hearing the Timmins Citizens‘ Band and helping to secure a motor ambulance for the S.J.A.B.

It recently shied at a passing load of wood and jumped into a ditch overturning the buggy and pinning Mr. Flinn underâ€" neath it. VALE OF VOLUNTEER ARE BRIGADE A GOMMUNITY Few Branches of Public Service Bring Out the Fine Community Spirit and the Courage Evidenced by the Volunteer Firemen. People often become so accustomea to service that they are prone to overâ€" look the value of the work and the public spirit of those who give it, often at considerable cost to themsglves. Acâ€" cordingly, it is well once in while to have such articles as The Kincardine Reviewâ€"Reporter recently published about volunteer fire bri@des. In the article The Reviewâ€"Reporter refers to the services given by the firemen, and what is said along this line applies with equal force to Timmins and the other towns of the Porcupinsâ€"indeed, with more force, on account of the cirecumâ€" stances here. In regard to the diffiâ€" culties encountered through imptroper or inadequate equipment the remarks of the Kincardine paper do not apply to Timmins, Aat least during the past fourteen years, for the authorities here have given the fire departmentâ€"salarâ€" ied and volunteer alikeâ€"the fullest sympathy and coâ€"operation. Whatever equipment has been necessary has been purchased, and the town has saved money as a consequence. As a reminder of the value of th» volunteer fire brigades, whose services have been of such inestimable benefit to the towns of the North, The Adâ€" vance publishes herewith in full the article from the Kincardine newsypiiper. The Reviewâ€"Reporter says:â€" "During the past wesekâ€"end this town and the local fire brigade have been hosts to the members and deieâ€" gates of the Ontario Volunteer Fireâ€" men‘s Association during the period of their 29th convention and tournament. "We believe that inâ€"the single word "volunteer‘"‘ in connection with this orâ€" ganization, a thinking person can find room for much thought. Do you realâ€" ize that the hundreds of men who gathered here, many hundreds besides are engaged in protecting our life and property in the spirit of public serâ€" vice? There are a great many branches of public service, but few contain as much of the labour, danger and thrill as that of fire fightingâ€"and these men enter this on their own initiative. "Hard work, most assuredly. To play _ a stream of water, sometimes for hours‘ at a time, upon a blaze, is a physical | task; to ‘pull hose, to chop, to climw , ladders, to do anything in the midst of | swirling smoke entails hardship. . "Dangerâ€"there is always the danger; from the blaze itself, falling walls, 1* slippery ladders and other ways, but there is also the danger of health being affectecd by the smoke and the water which saturates clothes and, in the winter especially, constitutes probably the greatest rmenace of all. "Of course, as in all public service organizations, the people do not hesiâ€" ; tate to castigate the firemen if a firc" becomes a disaster. Little thought is | given to the fact that volunteer corps are often fighting under the severel handicap of obsolete equipment or a lack of equipment and it is usually the case that when a brigade requests that eqummeat be supyolied they almost have | to fight to get it. That is comethmgl that is hard to understand. "Again, what does a volunteer firei brigade mean to a small town or vilâ€" lageo. It means, in the first place, a saving of thousands of dollars in wages to a hired brigade; it means a large force of trained fire fighters; it means, | we believe, better care of equipment. | because as ratepayers the volunteer firemen are part owners of the equipâ€" ! ment, and because the majority Cf | members of a volunteer brigade arc | property owners im their town, they’ take greater interest in protecting | town property from fire. ! "One can hardly, in a brief article, | adequately express the superiority of a volunteer fire brigadeâ€"a labour which! brings no> reward but the individuat | satisfaction of knowing that it is for kinsfolk and community. Every place! that has such a brigade should see to | it that the members are given the opâ€" portunity at no expense to themselves | cf enjoying their annual grand raliy | and joliification. They certainly earn | "In another section of this issue wil‘ be found a comprehensive report of happenings taking place during the four days of the gathering but in this brief editorial we do not wish to comâ€" ment on the wonderful display of firs fighting prowess displayed before the public, the business of the convention or the lively time the delegates had and made while here. All that was exâ€" pect«d. Kincardine sincerely hopes their stay here was enjoyed. "In these modern days it is to be that one organization that never gces under is that of the volunteer fire fighters." To this it may also be added that just as the strictures in regard to equipment are ncot applicable to the town of Timâ€" mins, so also the other part of the same paragrar‘h in The Reviewâ€"Reporter‘s article dosos not fit this town. There has not been much criticism of the Timmins volunteer fire brigade. There may be a hint in this for other towns where criticism is more frequent. Perâ€" haps if such towns would supply the needs in the way of equipment and supplies,â€" there would not be any grounds for criticism.
