If the communist party is an unlawful association is will be unlawful for men to profess allegiance to it. and its headquarters and prop- aganda will naturally have to be dis- continued in Canada. This will be of great advantage to the co-operative enthusiasts in many sections where communist activities have been the chief drawback to success. If, as the government report suggests. and as some of the literature issued by some of the' fbrmer co-operatives now in- dicates. that these associations are more communist than co-operative. future methods will be interesting to watch.

According to information given to the press at North Bay the party had many incidents by which to remember the trip to the new end of steel of the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway The 'party reached Moose River oridge on Monday morning and were taken down to Moose Harbour town- site in railway sedans. There they spent one day looking over the town plot, which is undergoing the process of clearing. At the present rate the town- site will be cleared within the next two or three weeks. This work is being done by Indians, for the most part. residents of Moose Factory.

A wedding took place at Moose Fac- tory during the visit of the distinguish- ed-tourists. A young Indian brave and Indian girl were married at the Hud- son Bay post. and left immediately afterwards on a honeymoon trip of 180 miles up the east coast of Hudson Bay. where they will spent the Winter. Railway Ofï¬cials Visit Moose Harbour Another wedding of particular in- terest to the tourists occurred on Thursday afternoon at Cochrane, when Jack Humphrey, son of ‘Mr. and Mrs. H. J Humphrey, was united in mar- riage’ to Miss Helen Houlton, of Fraser- dale, the service being performed in the Bishop’s Palace by Rev. Mr. Wil- kinson, Anglican Minister at Cochrane. The bride and groom came to North Bay on Mr. Humphrey’s private care. and left for Ottawa this morning. The groom is on the staff of the H. F. McLean Company, Limited, in the building of the T. N 0. extension. Another interesting feature of the trip was a christening of the young son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Switzer. by Rev. Mr. Wilkinson. the bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Humphrey. acting as godfather and godmother Mr. Switzer is omce manager of the Dominion Construction Co at Fraser- dale. ' In Class C. of the band competitions at the Canadian National Exhibition the Kirkland Lake Citizens’ Band had the honour of taking third place in a ï¬eld of nine competitors. Georgetown Citizens Band took ï¬rst in Class C. and the Beamsvillle Citizens’ Band was second. The prize won by the Kirkland Lake band only amounts to $200.00 and as it costs about a thousand to ï¬nance the trip it is easy to see why this is the ï¬rst time that the North has cap- tured one of these Contest prizes. Timmins Citizens' Band entered the contests several years ago but. it was evident then that the bands from the North did not have a fair chance, at least, at that time. For years it has seemed that the prizes for these am- ateur bands contests has simply been going around in a circle of a few bands from Old Ontario. This year, however. Sudbury band ako won a prize, so there may be better times ahead The natural handicap of the cost 0? the trip frOm the North has done enou to hold back competition from section of the country without any added difï¬culties. Last year there was considerable protest against the prize awards in some of the classes, and this was the case also in many previous years. However, the whole North will congratulate Kirkland Lake and Bud- bury on the honour achieved this year and the service given in breaking down the popular opinion that it took more than good band playing to win at these contests.
