Most motor cars, regardless of the type of mator oil used, should have their crank- cases drained and oil renewed every 500 miles. Some types of automobiles, how- ever, which are equipped with certain oil filters or purifiers and crank-case venti- lators, can safely run 3,000 miles on one filling of motor oil. The manufacrurer of your car specifies how often the oil should be changed and to get best results you should follow the manufacturer’s advice. Red Indian Motor Oil can safely be used for mileages of from 500 to 3,000 miles when these mileages are recommended by the automobile manufacturer. In ad- dition to being a superior oil of the highest lubricating quality, Red Indian Motor Oil has also the following extra advantages: REID UNIDHZAI an interest in Canada June 30th times dvbr ”'0 rcmmm POWER CORPORATION has .Made in Canada by Canadians a MCCOLL - FRONTENAC product LOW POUR TEST Withstanding climatic te changes efl’eCtively.

The Falls won the second of the decid- ing games on Sept. l7th.The win gave the Hamilton . Wills cup to the Falls for permanent holding, the Falls win- ning it two years out of three. In 1919 and 1921 the Falls won the cup, while Timmins won it in 1920. The Advance at the time said that the Falls won fairly and squame by good sportsman- ship and good baseball and that all good sports in Timmins congratulated them on their win. The second deciding game was played at the Falls and won by a score of 5 to 3. There were five innings in which neither team scored, and up‘ to the seventh innings the score was a tie, 1 to 1. In the seventh the Falls got three runs with another in the eighth. Timmins finished strong, getting two runnings in the last in-‘ nings. but that was two too little. The Timmins team included :â€"Farr and Mc- mtyiie, battery: McCurry. Scully, Spring. Sheahan, McLean, Pierce, King and Langdon. The Iroquois Falls bat- tery was Bowman and Morrison, with the other players including Girouard, Bousquet.

Rinn an- nounced the opening of an exclusive ladies' wear store in‘Timmins on Sept. 19th. 1921. The Advance noted at the time that for some years previously the Rinn Brothers had been connected with the Hollinger Stores in responsible ca- pacities and had won the esteem and confidence of the public. The new ladles' wear store was announced as to occupy the premises at 76 Pine street. opposite the post office. Reference was made in The Advance ten years ago to a grand concert given with the revolver before he could sub- due him and get his money. Issby lost his watch. $410.00 in cash received in payment for clothing. and a cheque to: $300.00. His assailant made good his escape. Mr. Issby could give a fair description of his assailant. but there seemed little chance of picking him up in this country. Officer R. Allen ‘Was given the apparently hopeless job of finding the guilty man and despite the apparent scarcity of clues and the hopelessness of such a search he went into the matter in a very thorough fashion. After a few days Officer Allen was on the trail and eventually arrest- ed a. man named Geo. Drakes at a mine [back of Matheson. He denied all knowledge of the crime and had an alibi as to his whereabouts at the time of the hold-up. Officer Allen checked up and broke down the alibi, then he found $400.00 cached at Matheson, next l he located the stolen cheque, and soon he had Drakes tied up completely. Iss- . A list of the members of the Porcu- pine branch of the Children’s Aid So- ciety was published in The Advance ten years ago, the list being an acknow- ledgement of the subscriptions received from these members. There were 372 members of the branch for the year 1921. The first regular session of the Tem- iskaming Presbytery to be held in Timâ€" mins was held in the Presbyterian Church here on Sept. 15th, 1921. Among the visitors to Timmins for the occasion was Rev. J. Irwin, of Hearst, the Moderator of the Presbytery, who was heartily welcomed here again by many old friends in the town and dis- trict. Rev. Mr. Irwin was minister of the Presbyterian church at 'I‘immins previous to going farther north. i’by was able to identify Drakos as his 'assailant and the accused was faced with a case that left no doubt of his guilt. He came before Magistrate E. R. Tuckerfof Cochrane. who was taking court here in place of Magistrate A‘- kinson who had been called to North Bay by the Attorney-General to pre- side at a big case there. Drakos in court pleaded guilty but in a disjointed story in his own defence suggested that he had transactionsfin high-grading .with the man he had robbed. In com- menting on this, The Advance report at the time said:â€"‘,‘In view of the record of the accused, his character as given by the police, and the unsatisfactory nature of his story, along with the ap- parent respectability of the man he made his allegations about, Magistrate Tucker showed little credence in the story and of course accepted it in no measure as a defence.

Only two signed as against, the feeling thus being shown to be practically unanimous in favour of annexation.” “The latest from Iroquois Falls talk of the organization there oiatheatrical club.

Ten years ago a. young man well known about the camp was arrested for writing threatening letters, in which he said that he intended to destroy on sight 9. number of those concerned with the buying and selling of stocks. He caused considerable excitement one day when he was supposed to be carrying a. weapon and looking for one broker in particular. The Advance ten years ago had the following paragraphzâ€"“Some months ago a very attractive young lady is said to have spent some weeks canvassing for various magazines in this man’s town. A very attractive young lady can secure many more subscriptions than a homely old lady in a town like this. In any event this particular young lady is said to have been success- ful indeed in securing subscriptions. She is said to have secured over $1000 in subscription money for difierent magazines. She gave plain receipts, all duly numbered, for the money received. Up to date this seems to be all that has been received by those giving her sub- scriptions. But, anyway, she had nice eyes.” In the first of the home and home games, goals to count. for the Goodyear Cup the Dome Football club won on Sept. 20th, 1921, from the Kirkland Lake team. for pulp sold by the settlers. was told by Beniah Bowman. Minister of Lands and Forests, that for the Government to interfere in a matter relating to private interests “would be unpreced- ented." The . Advance detailed the cases where the Government was con~ tinually interfering with private inter- ests, even so far as what a man might drink. and pointed out that fairness and decency demanded in the public inter- ests that the settlers be protected. "In the British mind,” said The Advance, “there are no private rights that can over-ride a square deal." Years later another Government saw to it that the settlers were given a square deal in the matter. In view of recent referencs in The Advance to the Horticultural Society exhibition and the Porcupine Fair, it may be interesting to note that in The Advance of Sept. let, 1921, there was an article headedzâ€"“North Land the Market Garden of the Province." The article asserted that the crops in the North Land that year fully disposed of the suggestionqnade by the Minister of Agriculture for the province at the time that the North was only useful or promising as a “cattle country.” The vegetables grown in the North Land ten years ago were remarkable proofs of the fact that this country was as- suredly “the market garden of the pro- Vince." The AdvanCe gave considerable space ten years ago to detailing the difl'erence in treatment given the lumber, paper and other interests iii this North and the settlers where the Government was concerned.
