Our good friend Comrade Parsons called up the other night in regards to Poppy Day, and I‘m sure that we can leave the Dome and Porcupine tagging to Comrade Parsons and the good ladies from the Dome and Forcupine.

The new system that has come out means that the only spare time a secretaryâ€"treasâ€" urer has will be when he is sleeping, and he will have to curtail many of his few hours of sleep, to keep a large branch in order. The new master cards have only the member‘s name and number on so the secretaryâ€"treasurer will have to refer to his due book as well as the master card, which is supâ€" posed to act as a due book. Then he has a monthly return to send in to the Provincial office as well as a nominal roll at the end of each quarter. Reâ€" ceipt books are forwarded for the use of the branch; a cash book is being forwarded; instructions are issued to barlk all receipts and to give a receipt for all monies received and to pay all monies by cheque.

Then |â€" we are politely told that an auditing system will be announced later. The} reason for the cash book is that a | branch at all times can intelligently see | how it stands. Since October 1929 this | branch has had no trouble to intelli-\ sently see how it stood, as a monthly | statement is always given to the exeâ€"| 'icutive committee and at all monthly meetings. The Provincial Command \must take us all for a lot of rubes ac-‘ ‘cording to the instructions sent. "Must" | is out of place; they do really think it.\ ‘The principle of this branch has been ‘to support the business men of the Etown and dealing in the town that is good enough to support the Legion.

The secretaryâ€"treasurer stamped the card and that was the end of it. The stamp bought showed the per capita paid by the branch, which was better than this new fangled system that has been forced upon us. The receipt book issued has to have a carbon sheet to get a copy, so as the secretaryâ€"treasurer can always tell by the copy what monies he has collected. The stub of the Timâ€" mins Branch receipt book gives the secâ€" retaryâ€"treasurer as good a check as needed on the monies collected, the making of the book supporting home industries. s I have already expressed my opinion of the new system to the Provincial Command and I trust that the rest of the branches will do the same, as even if we do live in the "Wilds" as our Toâ€" ronto friends think, we are blessed with a little good sense and can add and subtract, or run branch just as good as our friends in the south. | TONNAGE AT LAKE SHORE | BETTER THAN LAST YEAR saturday, November lst is Tag Day so all comrades remember this and support the good work. The Ladies will be on the streets with plenty of boxes and poppies and anyone who has too much loose change to put in any one box, can drop into the Moose hall where the secretaryâ€"treasurer will be only too pleased to relieve the comrades of the extra change. Don‘t forget Friday, October 31st, is Hallowe‘en Night at the McIntyre hall. Get your best mask, your best costume, and of course your best girl, and come to the McIntyre hall and spend Hallowe‘en with the Canadian Legion. And as reminder remember that those owing dues cannot have their new cards until all arrears are paid, so pay up your arrears and the card will arrive in quick time.

An ‘attempt by Gso. Mitchell, K.C., to introduce a petition signed, he said, by a majority of the residents of Mileage 104 and supportâ€" ing the principal, was treated by the magistrate as "back door" testimony, and the bench said if the ratepayers | wanted to give character evidence, they | should come to court in the proper way. On Saturday last at Cobalt Magisâ€" trate Atkinson reserved judgment in a case that is of more than passing inâ€" terest. It was the case of Lorne Piercy principal of the public school at Mileâ€" age 104, who was charged with assault, the action arising out of a strapriing he had administered to eightâ€"yearâ€"old Bronwen Davis, In setting the case over for a week, the magistrate expressâ€" ed the opinion that, in circumstances such as had been outlined in evidencse, the better plan would have been to have called in another teacher to hold the _child. | _ Defendant, who has been six years at ‘the school as principal told the court he used the strap while tne girl was in a tantrum, and that when she said \te had hurt her face, he replied that she may have inflicted the injury herâ€" Dr. G. A. Schmidt, who had seen the girl two and a half hours after she had been punished on October 13, said he found then a mark "perhaps little wider than my middle finger," extendâ€" ing on the left side of her face from the eye to the jaw. The swelling had gone down when he made his examinaâ€" tion. she may have inflicted the injury herâ€" self. To Crown Attorney F. L. Smiley, K.C., Piercey said the edge of the stran may have glanced off while he was holding her, or it may have hit her as it came back. He accused the girl of ‘"incesâ€" sant laziness‘" and said her mother had challenged him to punish her. The girl herself had told him he dared not strap her, because her mother had said she | was not to be punished, the defendant; caid. | | Mrs. Davis swore she never had enâ€"| couraged disobedience in the child, as. the defence alleged, but she had askedi the principal on this occasion not to; punish her for leaving school without permission, on the afternoon of Octoâ€" ber 2. The girl had been home ill in the interval, the mother declared. Acâ€" cording to the child she left school when the principal threatened to whip the whole class, when he kept the pur!ls in after four o‘clock because they were not working hard enough. Deâ€" fendant said he told pupils who were |promoted to his class it was "always necessary to use the strap before they would settle down." $SHOP EARLY SHOPPINC CAYS MAY BE BIG MINING BOOM IN AREA NORTH OF THE BAY Much Activity Expected from Iron Ore Claims. D. O‘Connor of Connaught One of the Pioneers in Tron Ore Claims in Area. There is always a boom given to other | . mining projects when there is the inâ€" terest arising from a rush along one line. This is the case in regard to |: the rush into Matachewan. The Matâ€" achewan rush is one arising from gold discoveries in the area, but all other mining activities seem to acquire special impetus from the interest roused by the gold find. One of the other ore bodies to come in for special notice recently is the iron in the North. In the matter of iron ore, D. O‘Connor, now of Conâ€" naught, was one of the pioneer prosâ€" pectors and stakers. When he was in the Temagami district he made several notable iron ore discoveries and for years attempted to rouse interest in the claims he staked. Conditions in the iron industry in Canada were none too hopeful, however, and it is to be feared that much that Mr. O‘Connor said in the matter in years gone by was not given the attention it merited. On one occasion some eight or nine years ago Mr. O‘Connor addressed the Northern| Ontario Associated Boards of Trade meeting at Timmins and to that body he pointed out the importance and value of the iron industry. He laid special emphasis on the discoveries of iron ore in the Temagami area and his earnestness and enthusiasm and his knowledge of the subject won Over the gathering. Mr. O‘Connor received the hearty support of the Associated Boards for his plans to have some measure of assistance extended to the iron indusâ€" try in this North. Mr. O‘Connor wWas able to show quite plainly to the deleâ€" | gates present at the meeting that the establishment of the iron ore industry | in this North Land would mean a reâ€" markable impetus for the country in | general. Mr. O‘Connor roused the enâ€" thusiasm for the, time but soon the mm« 4.4. dn question was again lost sight of. Some months ago Mr. O‘Connor again brought up the question, this time with special reference to some claims he has staked and recorded much nearer North Bay than the original stakings in the central Temagami area. Now, with the interest in prospecting and mining so fully revived through the ‘ recent finds of gold in Matachewan, the iron ore claims are also receiving some very desirable publicity. Despatches from Cobalt take up the question in | sosme detail. One of these despatches this week says that the possibility of the | Federal Government and the Ferguson administration at Toronto reaching an arrangement whereby bounty will be given for the development of iron ore in Northern Ontario, may mean someâ€", thing in the nature of a mining boom at Temagami, hitherto given up largely to the tourist trade. This week it was announced that four townships in that section had been thrown open for the performance of assessment duties, and as many claims have been staked in these areas, and very largely for iron values, there is a keen anticipatory inâ€" terest in the district over possible deâ€" velopments there. Extending from the village of Temagami westward, along the north shore of the western arm of Lake Temagami is a ridge on which promising cutâ€"croppings of low grade iron ore have been found. That area is staked solid among those interested beâ€" | ing the veteran Dan O‘Connor, of Conâ€" naught and two Lanark men ordinarily engaged in the woollen mill business. A number of years ago, rush was staged in the Piskabo Lake section of this district, when many claims were staked, but no further action was folâ€" lowed, owing to the restrictions placed by the Provincial Government. Syd Beanland, Haileybury, and Asâ€" sociates, have a prospest in the Temaâ€" gami section they expect to develop for arsenic, while it is probable many claims staked for iron will be the scene of activity during the coming Winter and next Spring BOUNTY ON WC HAVE BEEN A bounty of $25 on dead wolf has been on between Ontario and quebec. It is not enough, and that is Ontario‘s fault. Quebec was willing to :o higher. Wolves destroy many deer and some sheep, and are good for noâ€" thing on earth. They are undoubtedly very numerous in some parts of each Po a e brovince. and it is a pity the bounty on their pelts is not higher.
