The question of charges for water in Gillies Lake and Moneta was disâ€" cussed. The plan of installing meters as previously proposed looked too °exâ€" pensive for the town. The matter was considered from all angles,, and it was decided that Tisdale should pay $50.00 per hydrant for the fire service water and that the clerk and town enginser should prepare a resolution to cover all ppints in regard to the water service to this part of Tisdale, this resolution to be ready for next meeting of the council, and in the meantime the town and Tisdale councils should meet toâ€" gether and arrange the question. The maitter will come up at the next mse.â€" of the town council. °_ * Town Engineer MacLkean was asked in regard to the progress of the relief work programme. He said there were 45 men now at work on this programme. There were 20 more on the waiting list. There were 8 or 10 teams on the waiting list. Only bona fide ,residents of the town for a year were considered. There were more men looking for work than expected. His plan â€"was to give men work week about so as to care for as many as possible. «There was not enough work to care for all at once. Fifty or sixty had been considered as eligible for consideration, being transiâ€"< ents. Preference was given to married men or single men keeping families. Mayor Drew pointed out that the chances were that there would be more needy cases in January and that it would not do to rush the work through or employ too many men at the one time. A bylaw to goverhn the operation of the market here is to be prirepared and passed by council. In the meantime the market byâ€"laws in other towns are to be considered. s . G.

He was a wiâ€" dower with a large family and had to have a housekeeper. At present he was out of work and could not pay the balâ€" ance of taxes for 1929, though part had been paid. He feared a foreclosure of mortgage on this account. The counâ€" cil took the question under consideraâ€" tion.

Fifty or Sixty Applicants Not Considered Eligible. _ More Looking for Work Than Expected, Council Told by Town Engineer. Court of Revision to be Held Dec. 30. Other Business Before Town Council at Regular Meeting. | At the regular meeting of council of Building orerations in the town of Timmins during this year reprecemed a total value of over $100, 090.00 from January ist, to Dec. Aist, this year.> The ectimated eostâ€" as â€"given in the appliâ€" caticns for building permits does not rsach tkMis amount, but it is well known that the estimated cost given in the applications for permits is almost inâ€" variably much below the actual final cost. There are nearly always extras ‘or changes that result in adding a few hundred or a few thousands to the estimated cost before the work is comâ€" pleted, so it is safe to say that the new buildings, alterations and additions in Timmins.this year has exceeded $100,â€" 000.00. This figure is considerably beâ€" low the boom years, when five and six times that amount was spent in buildâ€" ings in the town in the year, but the amount this year shows that the town is continuing on its march forward. Few towns of this sizes and age can boast as large a building programme for the present year, with the fact kept in view that building in connection with the chief industry of the district â€"the minegsâ€"is not included in these figures. Figures from the town engineer‘s doâ€" partment for this year un to Dec. 1s, 1930, show that the total number CI permits issued was 112, and the total cost of buildings covered by these perâ€" mits was estimated at $94,870.00. These figures cover new buildings and alterâ€" ations and additions to buildings al}â€" ready erected. Among the new buildings are:â€"the handsome New Empire theatre; Ellies Bros. store building on Third avenuse, cecupied by the Dominion Stores; Chas. Pierce and Sons‘ building on Third avenue; the new bath house on Fourth avenue. The following are the figures of estiâ€" mated cost for new buildings in the difâ€" ferent sections of the town, the figures in brackets being the number of perâ€" mits issued :â€" Business section (8) ............ $61,400.00 Residential section (10) ......... 4,950.00 Garages and sheds, new (32) 2,340.00 BUILDING PERMITS TOTAL NEARLY $100,000 FOR YEAR S mscc :d n $68,690.00 The following are the figures for alâ€" terations and additions to existing buildings, the figures in brackets indiâ€" cating the number of permits issued in each section:â€" Business section (15) .............. $18,650.00 Residential section (40). .s...... 7,345.00 Alterations, garages, sheds (7) 185.00 Actual Value of Buildings Much in Exâ€" cess of This Figure.

GRAND CONCERT IN S.A. HALL ONn wWEDNESDAY, DEC. 17 A grand concert is announced to be held in the Salvation Army hall, Timâ€" mins, on Wednesday evening of next week, Dec. l17ith. The programme will be a very attractive one and is sure to please all attending. The mayor of Timmins, Mr. Geo. S. Drew, will preside for the occasion. RALPH WEBB Popular Mayor of Winnipeg, who has just been reâ€"elected to the post of Chief Magistrate for the Maniâ€" toba capital for the fifth time. Following the suggestion of the Timâ€" mins Boys‘ Athletic Association, the town has built a couple of rinks for youngsters, and may build a third. The two rinks have been made on the athâ€" letic grounds. They are not very costly affairs, and certainly are worth all they may cost in view of the pleaâ€" sure and healthy exercise provided the youngsters. It was thought that one of the rinks would be for boys and the other for girls, but the T. B. A. A. lads say it will be difficult to arrange to have all the necessary hockey games and practices on the one rink and s6 they feel that they will really need the two and suggest that perhaps another rink could be built on the grounds for the exclusive use of the girls. In view of the small cost of these outdoor rinks, old planking being used, and the only cost being the work of putting in the boards and flooding, it is likely that the town will make a complete job for the youngsters by putting in the third rink for the exclusive use of the girls. For some time past there have be% rumours on street that a plan of ha ing sixâ€"hour shift, four shifts to the day, instead of three as at present, was being suggested for the mines. The general reaction to the prroposal was that it would be a good idea if no change were made in the rate of pay, which is not too high now. While the mines are usually quoted as paying $3.176 per day as the minimum wagse, the fact is thiat all wages are actually computed at 47 cents per hour. If the sixâ€"hour day were inaugurated at $3.76 a day for the six hours, the plan would prove of unusual advantage in relieving the unemployment system and bringâ€" ing back prosperity. On the other hand it is to be sincerely hoped that the matter is not made the occasion for a cut in pay, as was the case in the relief work for the Ontario Govâ€" ernment in this district where the pay was actually reduced from $3.00 per day to $2.40 per day. Those who have studied the situation believe the 6â€" hsux day will be a notable factor in the early adjustment of industrial conâ€" ditions. The matter is understood to have been suggested by the Dominion Government. Some of the mines are understood to look upon the matter favourably, while it appears to other mine heads to be more difficult to work out Elsewhere in this issue will be found a reference to the death of a workman at Abitibi Canyon, the despatch sugâ€" gesting that the unfortunate man had been imported from the United States for the work in tunnel construction. Despatches yesterday from Toronto gave the other side of the case. One despatch from Toronto yesterday said: If the present cold weather holds, the ice on the rinks will be ready this week. The rinks were ready and flooded when the soft spell came along and made it impossible to get good ice. A few days like Tuesday and yesterâ€" day, however, will soon make it easy to get good sheets of ice for the younsgâ€" sters DENY THAT MEN IMPORTED FOR WORK AT THE CANYON tecent Victim of Accident at Developâ€" ment Work at Abitibit Canyon Just Drifted in, Officials State.

Black, viceâ€"president of the Abitibi Power and Paper Co., of reports that John Wesley Scott, 18, killed in a fall of rock from a roof of tunnel at Abitibi river hydro development yesterday, was one of a group of American workers, imporied to do a job which Canadians had reâ€" fused to do. ‘"Mr. Black communicated with the construction office at the site Tuesday and learned the lad had only been on the job an hour when the tragedy ocâ€" "Mr. Black learned that his uncle was the foreman on the job and his father an employee on the night shift. "All three men come from Joiliet, 11., but Mr. Black declared that none of the three were imported for the work. He explained they had just drifted into camp, without letting anyone know they were Americans. ‘"They were not doing any work Canadian workers had refused to co,‘ Mr. Black said. He explains that the origin of that yeport probably comes from the fac® that the Dominion Conâ€" struction Company, which is doing the work, last week increased working hours from 8 to 10 hours a day and some of the men quit. "It was learned that the company|from sent to Timmins last week for workmen |pital and young Scott and his father were | celle: two of the men who were employed." |homs TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 11TH, 193° j@ a consequence, will be pleased to ‘know that she is sufficiently recovered ifrom the accident to leave the hosâ€" |pital this week and is now making exâ€" ‘cellent progress to recovery at her Events Last Thursday and Friday Evenâ€" ings by the Pupils of the Central Public School Make Very Deâ€" cided Hit. The concert given by the Central public school pupils last week drew large attendances both nights, the seatâ€" ing capacity being insufficient to acâ€" commodate all, and the event proving fully deserving of the large crowds lresent both Thursday and Friday avening. â€" A neat sum was realized by the events and the teachers and pupils alike are being heartily congratulated on the excellence of all the individual numbers and programme in generâ€" al. On the other hand the teachers and express appreciation of the kindly patronage of the public and the interest shown in the event. The opinâ€" ion of those attending the events, either night, is that the concert was one of very best yet given in the district, ‘he purlls individually and collectiveâ€" ly reflecting the highest credit on their own talent and on the training and direction of the teachers. BiGr GROWDS DELIGHTED WITH SGHOOL CONGERTS No Truth in Report of Liquor Store Closing Recently, someone for some reason another, or for n# reason at all, started a story to the effect that the Ontario Government Liquor store at Timmins was to close down shortly. The story grew in the telling until reâ€" cently the story is to the effect that all the liquor stores are to close,. There is no basis of fact for these yarns. The liquor store at Timmins is not to be closed and neither are the stores throughout the province. The Govâ€" ernment has not considered, and is not likely to consider, any such action. This is the information in the matter as given officially. The present plan of dealing with the liquor question has worked out very satisfactorily and no one is likely to favour going back to former methods, with prosperous bootâ€" leggers and a regular ring of industries to illiciilty supply the There is no truth in the stories about the closing of the liquor stores. The following is an outline of the programme, every item of which was excellent:â€"Opening chorus, "Fairp Song," Girls‘ Chorus; Motion Song, by Primary Class; violin solo, by David Gordon; Red Cross play, "The Magic Basket," by Miss Everett‘s Class; Ukâ€" rainian Gdance; recitation, by Fred Stonehouse; piano duet, by Gilda Tonâ€" in and Mary Chickini; club swinging, by Annie Marshall, Patricia Carson, and Lorna Monck; dance, by. Sadie FPo‘dman; Highland FPling, by Mary Porter and Evelyn Halperin; exhibition of physical strength, by Bill Moroz; Ukrainian dance; recitation, by ‘Leone Morrison; physical exercises, by Senior Boys; Christmas play, "Bird‘s Christâ€" mas Carol," by M# Baker‘s Class; sword dance, by Jean Gordon; Ukrainâ€" ian orchestra; chorus, "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear,‘* by boys. fls When asked this week as to when the Timmins liquor store was to close, T. H. Torrance, the vendor, was posiâ€" tive there was no thought ofâ€"closing the shop here. On the other hand he gave information as to extra hours it would be open. On Saturday before Christmas, Saturday, Dec. 20th, the liquor store â€"will be open until six o‘clock for the accommodation of the public. Again on the Saturday before New Year‘s Saturday, Dec. 27th, the store will keep open until 6 p.m. Otherwise the usual hours will obtain. The many friends of Mrs. Geo. Pond, who had one hand caught in an elecâ€" tric wringer and lost part of her thumb pirne Mbpante As announced in The Advance last week the council plans to continue the market all the year round. If it conâ€" tinues to be as successful as it has proven to be up to the present, this will certainly be done. The market is now running in fine, shape at its new quarters, 95 Third: avenue, . to Shankman‘s store. Twelve stalls were in use there last week and this number was found to be insufficient, and according more were built for the accommodation of the settlers using the market. Settlers from the immediate district and some from Ramore have been taking advanâ€" tage of the market to get their produce to the consumers and they express themselves as well pleased with the market here. Some from a greater disâ€" tance are also planning to come here regularly for the two days on which the market is held. So far there has been a ready sale for all produce offered. On the other side of the question the buying public also express appreciation of the opportunity offered by the marâ€" ket. Not only do they feel that they secure more favourable prices than they would ctherwise, but they also are pleased at the chance to buy produce fresh from the farm, believing it better than even the very best of cold storage goods. Both sides of, the question thus are pleased with the market. Since the new quarters at 95 Third avenue have been in use there have been crowds in attendance about equal to those atâ€" tending the market when it was held at the skating rink The settlers are selling all=the produce they bring in, lso the market may be considered as satisfactory and successful and 5o it is almost a foregone conclusion that it will be carried on through the year. tive of the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Columbus, visited this North Land and called on all the councils of the order in the district. He takes the work of auditor and inâ€" spector and in addition delivers inâ€" spiring lectures to the councils on the work of the order and especially on what is being accomplished in the line of boys‘ work. Supreme Lodge Agent Wells visited the Timmins Counâ€" cil of the K. of C. on Friday evening last. There was a large attendance of members present in St. Anthony‘s parish hall last Friday evening to welâ€" come him. The Supreme Lodge Agent delighted all with his able and inâ€" teresting address on the work of the order and on the progress and success met with by the work for boys to which the K. of C. have been giving special interest and effort. A letter elsewhere in this issue from Dean Kester presents the case in very effective way. There is an attractive list of good players available, and the opportunity for a good season‘s amaâ€" teur sport. The coâ€"operation of the public is sought to make the season a success, and this coâ€"operation will no doubt be gladly extended by the hocâ€" keyâ€"loving people.of the town and disâ€" trict.

H. A. Representative Supreme Lodge, K. of C. Visits Here Last week W. A. Wells, representaâ€" Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman‘s address was bo:n interesting and inspiring. He gave special mention to Carthage, Tunis, Paris, London, and other famous cities of the Old World. His description cof the ancient Roman city of Carthage was among the most attractive features of his address. The Roman city of Carâ€" thage Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman pointed out, had been excavated to quite an extent in recent years. The life and customs of the people of Tunis were also very effectively described. . A motor trip through Italy was also described in most attractive way by the speaker. The motor trip over the Apâ€" penines was one of the incidents desâ€" cribed with especial effectiveness. Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman gave very graphic desâ€" cririon of trip through the battleâ€" fields of Europe, with particular referâ€" ence to points where he had been staâ€" tioned at various times during the war. The cemeteries, he menticoned, were beautifuly turfed and well attended, caretakers being in constant charge and everything being looked after in exâ€" emplary manner. The war memorials were particularly worthy of note, the Canadian memorial at Langes Marke being one of the finest. A large and impressive war memorial was being erected at Vimy. It was in a most commanding position and could be seen for many miles. Maple trees planted at Vimy Ridge gave a Canadian touch to the landscape and to the memories of Canada clustered round that localiâ€" ty. The Kiwanis Club expressed its sincere apyrecilation of the interesting address by Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman. The special speaker for the occasion was Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman and his adâ€" dress was conceded to be one of the most enjoyable and informative given before the club for some tims. Reyv. Fr. O‘Gorman spoke on his recent trip overseas, and much of his address covered matters that he dealt with so effectively in the letters written to Ths Adavance during the tour.

In the main hall the crowd did not appear to be as large as in some previous years, but this was because there were so many crowded into the card rooms at the sides, where bridge, whist, 500, euchre and cribbage were enjoyed as the fancy of the playâ€" ers wished. The Turkey Stag orchestra, under the leadership of Tommy Stephens furnishâ€" ed a continuous programme of music¢ that was counted about the best of its kind heard in the camp. A gentleâ€" man, present in mining camp costume delighted the crowd with the music he furnished as a side issue when he lifted the slide trombone and played as an added feature. Dancing by Wm. Lainsâ€" bury was another special attraction for the evening, while the singing and playing of R. Lowery brought unstinted approval. There was so many features however, that a recital of them all would be impossible. The featuring of "the gold camps of ‘49 and ©‘98" was done by the portrayal of camp life by men dressed and eating as they did im those bygone days. The scores of #houstached and bewhiskered men at the party was another item that could not escape comment. There were large number of entries for the moustacherâ€" ino contest for which so many have been preparing for the past several months, though a faw got cold feet and failed to show up last night. There was enough present however, to prove the growing power of this North Land. As a result of the event last night there will be large numbers of familâ€" lies in town and district who will enjoy Christmas cheer froin the baskets to be sent out. In last night‘s Charity Turkey Stag "Lap"‘ Laprairie has scored another big success. On Friday evening last about 8 o‘clock, Leonard Traver, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Traver, met with a painful accident at the corner of Hemlock street and Sixth avenue. He was ridâ€" ing his bicycle on the road and in turning the corner there was a collision. with a car driven by E. M. Allworth. As result of the accident, Leonard was cut about the face and head, one cut on the forehead going through to the bone. He was taken to the doctor‘s office at once and the wounds sewed up, several stitches being necessary for this. At present he is making good recovery at his home from the injuries received. The eighth annual Charity Turkef® . Stag was held last night, Wednesday,. Dec. 10th, in St. Anthony‘s parish hall, and the event had its oldâ€"time swing and success. There was a large attenâ€" dance, there being close to 700 paid admissions. "Gimme‘" and the other: games also attracted very steady patâ€" ronage with the result that the event was a good success financially.
