Woodbury in his usual happy way. Dr. Day spoke very interestingly of the Kapuskasing of ten years ago, when what is now the site of one of the most attractive upâ€"toâ€"date communities in the province was then a sort of fourâ€" sectioned town. In 1921 Kapuskasing might be classed as four small towns or villages, only one of which ameunted to very much in promise. There was the community around the Dominion Exâ€" perimental Farm where conditions were probably better than might be expected. Then there was what was considered the business section of the town, and the mill section, and last and perhaps the least prepossessing was the residenâ€" tial area of 1921. Mud was one of the big features of the Kapuskasing of 1921, the conditions being in sharp contrast to the present Kapuskasing with its pmaved streets, its long stretches of sideâ€" walks and its beauty spots. Dr. Day described in interesting way many inâ€" cidents in the town of Kapuskasing of ten years ago, among other things reâ€" ferring to the time when the big log jJam went out. In closing his address Dr. Day made mention of the wonders of the Kapuskasing of toâ€"day with its modern conveniences and comforts of all kinds, its big hotel, its wonderful club house, its remarkable hospital, its parks and beauty spots and the o _her notable features of the big paper town. A dance will be hekd on Saturday of this week, April l1th, in the Hollinger Recreation hall, in aid of the Cornish Football Club. Events under the ausâ€" pices of the Cornish Football Club are always pleasant and attractive and the event on Saturday night is sure to be un to the usual high standards and everyone attending can be assured of a goxi time.

Lake, chairman of the sports committee, repported on the plans made for the proposed Kiwanis bridge tourâ€" nament. All the members seemed enâ€" thusiastic about this new feature. There is reference elsewhere in this issue to the bridge tournament, the players, rules, etc. The Kiwanis club left the matter of the date for the dance planned by the Kiwanis in the hands of C. G.

Count honours, from four in one Club commenced A. E. Mcrtimer, president of the Timâ€" mins Citizens band, is very enthusiastic over the regatta planned for July 1st at the river. This week he informs The Advance that the motor boat races will be in three sections. There will be one event for engines of small horse power, one for engines of medium horse power, and one for engines of high horse powâ€" er. With the river now being open there should be lots of time to practice. Tne president says that‘ the first of July regatta by the Timmins Citizens‘ band will be a great day of. sports. Several jazz bands, he says, have asked if they could compste in the grand parade to the river. The band hopes to have a real parade of floats, jazz bands, etc., to the river for the regatta. Planned to Have Three Events for Difâ€" ferentâ€"Powered Motors. Jazz Bands to be Featured in Parade to River. The band this week received word that G2o0. W. Lee, chairman of the T. N. O. Railway Commission, will doâ€" nate a ten dollar gold pigece s prize at the regatta for one of the events. The generosity of Mr. Lee is greatly apjmreciated by the band.

Sunday to be Scotch Night at Band Concert Three Sentenced on Highâ€"Grade Charges Three Tisdale Township Men Plead Guilty to Hlegally Selling Gold and Receive Terms in Jail. In police court for the township of Tisdale last week Joe Byrne, Fred J. Williams and E. Madon were each charged with illegally selling gold. The charges were laid by R. Allen following an investigation into the matter. All three pleaded guilty to the charges when they came before Magisâ€" trate Atkinson last week. Officer Allen found gold in the possession of the three being estimated as worth around $1500.00. Byrne did prospecting work and Williams had worked in the mines, but neither had been employed recentâ€" ly. Madon had a small jewelry busiâ€" ness in Schumacher. The magistrate sentenced Byrne and Williams to a term of one year each, while Madon was given a term of four months. Dean Kester was counsel for Byrné and ‘Williams, while C.: Raiche defendâ€" ed Madon. The previous general good character of the accused men was emâ€" phasized, neither of them being of the type that would be suspected of wrongâ€" doing, being ,quiet and gentlemanly fellows. Keen Interest Shown in Legion Electi The annual election of officers for Timmins branch of the Canadian Leâ€" gion this year roused very unusual interest and the plan adopted provided an unusually éffective way for the members of the branch to actually seâ€" lect their officers with the greates© chance for consideration and for testâ€" ing the popular opinion. Nominations for the various offices were called sevâ€" eral weeks ago, several weeks being allowed for nominations to be put in. The president, Austin Neame, was reâ€" elected for the ensuing year by acclaâ€" 262 Votes Cast in Election of Officers for the Ensuing Year. Effective Method to Secure Opinion of Members of Branch mation, but there were a number of candidates nominsated for the other offices. The Legion decided to vote by ballot and to select the various officers in relation to the vote cast. That is, the candidate securing the highest number of votes would be the first viceâ€"president; the second highest would be second viceâ€"president, and the four next in order would be memâ€" bers of the executive. By this plan it was thought that all the best and most popular candidates would receive places cither as officers or on the exeâ€" cutive. The result cof the election is generally considered as bearing out this idea, and the plan seems to be generâ€" ally approved now that it has besen tried. It" took considerable time Monday evening" to count and tabulate the vote. The results of the voting showed that the various candidates all enjoyed conâ€" siderable popularity and some of the votes were close. T. Parsons, of the Dome Mines, headed the poll with 130 votes and the others were fairly close behind him. difference between the vote cast for the second viceâ€" president and the candidate on the first place in the executive, for inâ€" stance, was only one. The election reâ€" sulted in the following officers being elected for the year:â€" Voting was by ballot, as noted, the ballots being sent out some weeks ago and being returnable before the meetâ€" ing on Monday night when they were counted. There were 362 ballots sent out, and of this number 262 were reâ€" turned. There was very keen interest in the election and the large vote could scarcely have been secured by any other plan than the one adopted. Presidentâ€"Austin Neame (by acclaâ€" mation). First viceâ€"president â€" T. Parsons Dome Mines. Second viceâ€"presidentâ€"W. D. Forâ€" rester, Timmins. During the last week or so men have been noted washing their cars on main streets of the town. One man, not conâ€" tent with washing one car right across from the police station one day this week, followed his first effort with anâ€" other car duly cleaned and polished. The water used ran onto the sidewalk to add to the slush naturally there. This appears to be a practice that should not be allowed. It would seem that any man who wants to wash his car or cars should be able to find some other place than the principal streets of the town for this purpose. There are yards and lanes that may be utilizâ€" ed. Having the street used as a washâ€" room for motor cars does not ssem to be sensible or practical. The streets are the property of all and should not be monopolized by one or two for any considerable time. In addition making a wash station of the street interfers with legitimate traffic and it looks like the wages paid by the Northern Deâ€" velopment Depnt. on relief road work. Executiveâ€"Col. S. B. Scobell, H. C Gamer, W. A. Devine A. G. Bellamy. The various committees will be struck at the meeting on April 20th. The secretaryâ€"rteasurer is appointed by the executive. It may be stated that few organizaâ€" tions have as keen interest in electing officers as was shown in this election. Washing Cars on Main Streets Not Sensible If the weather of the North Land or e climate of the North Land in these wonderful summerâ€"like days needed any recommendation, apart from the days themselves, a complete testimonal to the weather and climate may be seen at the garden of Jean Pare, 212 Balsam street, noerth. When Mr. Pare returned from work on Wednesday morning of this week, April 8th, he saw what he thought to be flowers blooming in his garden and on investigation his first sight proved to be all right. The flowâ€" ers were English daisies and not only were there half a dozen in full bloom, but there were more in bud and coming along well to flower. In several garâ€" dens in town there are pansies in bloom, but these apparently live beneath the snow and are in fiower when uncovered. They show, perhaps, the vitality of the pansies, but the English daisies actually developed and are blooming after the snow left them, thus proving once again the salubricusness of this North Land‘s climate. English Daisy Flowers in Timmins on April 8 TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, APRIL 9th, 1931 A wellâ€"known oldâ€"time resident of Timmins and the North passed away on Sunday in the person of Joseph Chanâ€" tigny, 122 First avenue. The late Mr. Chantigny was for many years in the transfer business here, conducting the Canada Trancfer for some years, and also having the contract for the carryâ€" ing of the mail at Timmins. He had been in poor health for some time pass having had a stroke a couple of years ago from which he never fully recoverâ€" ed. At the time of death he was 51 years of age. He is survived by a wiâ€" dow and two children, a boy and a girl, to whom the sympathy of all will be exâ€" tended. velopment the results of the work appear very enâ€" couraging. The late Jos. Chantigny had many friends in Timmins and district and his death will be widely regretted. Chief H. Jones has inaugurated a new plan in regard to the police force here. There is no deputy chief now, but instead there are two sergeants, the one being on duty days and the other at nights. Ed. Moore and W. 5. Craik have been promoted to the rank of sergeant. Sergeant Craik is on day duty this week and Sergeant Moore on night duty. They will alternate two weeks of day duty and two weeks night duty. Every man on the force, with the exception of the chief has a day off each week. The shifts are arrangâ€" ed to be practically from 7 a.m. to 6 The funeral took place on Wednesday of this week, requiem high mass beâ€" ing said at St. Anthony‘s R.C. church. Sergeants Appointed on the Local Police F Death of J. Chantigny on Sunday, April 15th The police force has been very active during the past few weeks, many raids having been carried out and the deâ€" termination being evident to clean up the town and keep it orderly and lawâ€" abiding. pm. each day, with the night shift taking the balance of the hours. Football club smokers seem to be the order of the day or night these times, which perhaps is a sign that spring is here. The N.O.F.A., the Cornish F. C. and the Dome Football Club are among the soccer clubs that have alâ€" ready held enjoyable smokers. The Sons of England Football Club now anounces a smoker and social evening for Saturday evening of this week in the S. O. E. hall starting at 8.30. Memâ€" bers and players may bring a friend each to this event. A collection will be taken up to meet any expenses. All interested in football are invited to this event and a happy evening is ssured to all. Any who have played football are specially invited to attend as the manager of the team will be present to sign on players for the S. O. E. Football Club this season. The club had a good season last year and look forward this year to having A firstâ€"class team. Another Football Smoker Saturday Sons of England Football Club to Hold Smoker and Social Evening Satâ€" urday Evening This Week. General Meeting April 12. The New Liskeard Speaker last week says:â€"‘"Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Epfett reâ€" turned last week after spending six weeks in Timmins where Mr. Eplett was attending to the business while Mr. Gordon Eplett was away. Mr. Gordon Eplett has been a patient .for two months at the Battle Creek, Michigan, Sanitarium and has so much improved in health that he is expected home this week. This is good news for the family and friends." All interested should also note that a general meeting of the S. O. E. Footâ€" ball Club will be held in the Sons of England hall on Sunday morning, April 12th, commencing at 10.30 a.m. All members of the club and especially all players are asked to be present. A special invitation is given to anyone and everyone interested in football to be present at this general meeting of the club so that an auspicious start may be made for the season now approachâ€" ing. Ctivity in Bartlett and Other Townships Special Services at the Several Churche Mere. Music and Flowers Feature the Season. _ Services Largely Attended. The Easterâ€"tide services at the variâ€" cus churches here were largely attendâ€" ed and all proved most attractive. As usual thare were specially large conâ€" gregations at all the services at St. Anâ€" thony‘s and the Church of the Nativity, the music being a special feature and flowers adding to the attractiveness of the occasion. At the Church of the Nativity on Good Friday evening at 7.30 the "Seven Last Words of Christ," by Dubois, was sung by the choir, the soloists being Mrs. G. A. Jenkins and Mrs. J. Everard, soprano, W. R. Dodge, baritone, and J. T. Heffernan, tenor. The choir was under the direction of Jas. Geils, and the music was greatly Easter Services at the Churches Jas. Geils, and t appreciated by all .At the United Church, Baptist church, Grace Chapel, and the Salvaâ€" tion Army, the Easter message was specially featured by sermons, music and flowers. St. Matthew‘s church was particularâ€" ly beautiful with flowers, the artistic profusion of floral tributes bsring preâ€" sented by S. G. Fowler as a memorial to his wife who passed away soms months ago. The services at St. Maiâ€" thew‘s were particularly in the spirit of Easter, the addresses by Rev. R. S. Cushing being especially able and effecâ€" tive. Fine Water Route to Matachewan Field Night Hawk and Whitefish Kivers no Cleaned and Excelleny Wat Route to New Gol Through Notable Mining Country. Thanks to the interest of the Onâ€" tariqâ€"department of mines and especiâ€" to Hon. Chas. McCrea and his deâ€" puty. T. W. Gibson, there is now a firstâ€"class water route to the new gold area at Matachewan. Better still the route passes through the finest mining country in this part of the North and a number of promising discoveries may be expected as a result as well as the further development of excellent showâ€" ings that have already been uncovered along this route. The Nighthawk and Whitefish rivers have been cleared out and the excellent water route thus proâ€" vided runs within a mile or so of the important discoveries in the Matacheâ€" wan field. The route starts from Conâ€" naught, thence up Night Hawk lake, up the Night Hawk river four miles, above the barite mine in the township of Fallon, then portage one mile into the Whitefish river which is cleared , up to within a mile of the Ashley claims. This route will take the prosâ€". pector into a proven country that is not all staked as in the section immeâ€"| diately around Matachewan. Fallon‘ and McNeil townships particularly hold attractions for the prospector.! McNeill is one of the best in the district from the gold standâ€". point according to oldâ€"timers who should know and do know. There has been lots of gold found in McNeill and | this summer will likely see this town-] ship more thoroughly tested out. | The water route on the Night Hawk is cleaned through to the township of Hincks, giving an easy route and servâ€" ing the townships of Hincks, Montâ€" rose, Cleaver, Zavitz, Semple and Hutt, the latter known as the Canoe Shed Lake section. There were some remarkable discoveries reported from this section last year. The Night Hawk river has been|! cleared out of all log jams, etc., new portages have been cut and the way made for a firstâ€"class canoe route into one of the most promising mineral| areas in the North. This route should prove of immense value to prospectors and others this summer and it is likely ; to be very much used. There is posâ€" sibility that a large boat may be used | on the Night Hawk section for pasâ€" senger and freight service. It is also interesting to note that’ there is a good auto road the greater part of the way from Timmins. The| road to the Triplex mine is good forl auto traffic, but from the Triplex to Gagne‘s Landing there is a strip ofl about six miles that would need some fixing to make it available for auto use, though the route for these six miles may be considered as cut out, as the transmission line right of way could be used. From Gagne‘s Landâ€" ing on the Night Hawk river there is a good auto road into the township of Cleaver, some fifteen miles. From there it would be necessary to make road for autos to get to the Ashley claims, some nine miles away, but the road construction would not be diffiâ€". as it is chiefly over sand plains. Thus by this route it would be necesâ€". sary to complete 15 miles of road to. have connection by auto road from the: Porcupine into the new Matachewan gold field. The supper given by the L.O.D.E. in the Homer L. Gibson building on Saturâ€" day last was a success like all events under the same auspices. There was good attendance and all were delighted with the event. An event that no one should miss is the play to be presented in the United Church by the Ladies‘ Aid this (Thursâ€" day) evening. The play is entitled, "The Ladies‘ Aid ‘of Mohawk Crossâ€" ing," and all will be greatly pleased with it. Purther this play is being presented by members of the Ladies‘ Aid here, with oldâ€"fashioned costumes, and the event is sure to please all who attend. It will be an evening of wholeâ€" some fun and lots of it. The event will commence at 8 p.m. Mrs. Gibson tsok suddenly ill on Thursday at her home and the docior was summoned. She was ordered to the hospital and it was found she had a paralytic stroke. On Monday her daughter, Mrs. Jenkins, of Timmins, was called down on account of the seriâ€" ous illness of her mother. Despite all that care and skill could do Mrs. Alfred Gibson passed away on Wednesday evening shortly after 9 o‘clock. Play by Ladies‘ Aid of United Church Toâ€"Night Mrs. Alfred Gibson Passes. at Matheson Word was recsived here this week of ‘the death in the War Memorial hospital 1t Matheson, on Wednesday of last woeek, April 1st, of Mrs. Alfred Gibson, mother of Mrs. A. ~E.

At the time of her dsath Mrs. Gibson was in her 68th The late Mrs. Gibson was a native of Ottawa, and one of the most high:y ێsteemed of the early pioneer residents of Matheson. She had been in this North Country, for some twenty years past. She is survived by her husband Alfred Gibson and one son, Alonzo at home, and two daughters, Mrs. A. E. Jenkins residing in Timmins and Myrs. Nathan Gibson residing at Matheson. To these and to the other near relatives and friends, the sympathy of all is exâ€" tended at this time. Mrs. Alfred Gibâ€" Mother of Mrs. A. E. Jenkins, of Timâ€" mins, Passes Away at the Hospital at Matheson in her Sixtyâ€"eighth Year. son was formerly Miss Anna Piopel, of Ottawa. The funeral took place on Saturday. Interment was made at Matheson. A number of mean thefts have been reported recently from the district and one form of theft suffered by a Schuâ€" macher household on recent occasions has been especially annoying. For the second time within a few weeks sncak thieves visited the verandah of N>». 4 Railroad street, Schumacher, and stole a pint of milk and two loaves of bread. The owner of the house phoned The Advance this week to ask if the sneak thief taking the bread would kindly call again at the house for a knife to cut i: with. The theft of such articles as milk and bread are usually specially annoying and inconvenient, especially if the theft take place on night beâ€" fore a holiday. In the cities the theft of milk is specially pyinished on acâ€" count of the possible injury to children or invalids who may not only need milk but require the particular milk that may be taken. Mrs. Geo. S. Drew, returned last night from a month‘s visit to her home in Cannington, and a trip to Toronto and other centres in the south. 1 T T l w PAAA D AG L L AP L P AL L P AL LC P P eP PP PPA ts i Kmfe Offered to Sneak Thief at Schumacher PAID CIRCULATION LAST 4 3353 2 Sections â€" 16 Pages An out tanding social event of the season was the smoker given on Saturâ€" day evening last at the home of John Fell, Dome Mines, by the Doms Fostâ€" ball Club players There was a total of 64 present at the happy event, there being 21 Dome players, 9 club officials, 27 company officials and 7 invited guests.

At the table downstairs John Fell, Sr., rresided in his usual able and genial way, while Secretary Andrew did the honours upstirs. Mr. Fell spoke of the good work of the boys in the past season and the hopes for the present year. Hugh Richmond replied for the football club players, thanking the exeâ€" cutive for the wonderful support given, and especially the secretaryâ€"treasurer for the great amount of work so ably done. He hoped the boys might have try at the Ontario Cup this year. On 'behalf of the visitors G. A. Macdonald, editor of The Advance, spoke briefly touching on the way the Dome had supported football for many years and wishing the club all success. Mr. Anâ€" drew made an inspiring little address, particularly referring to the notable good sportsmanship of one of the guests of the evening, A. Roberts, of Timmins. There were great cheers for "Andy" when he responded to demands for a speech. He spoke of the good players at the Dome and the fine battles the team ptit up. "You were the first to bring the Foster Cup to this part of the North and I hope this year you will also be the first to bring the Ontario Cup here," he said. For the Dome players Jas. Fell responded briefly but well.
