This diminutive but experiencâ€" ed angler was fishing off the dock at his iather‘s summer home at Red Pine Island, in complany with Ross Mitchell, when he pulled out a repulsive looking thing about a foot long, with legs like a lizard and tail like a fish. "Gee, Ross, that‘s a funny fish," said the youngster; "I never saw one like that ‘fore." Neither had Ross, so they brought it to town to show the folks, amd it evoked considerable comment. From the encyclopedia it was learned that this queer fish is called the "water gdog", and is fairly common in waters to the south." QOur Want Ad. Column Brings Results A couple of weeks ago The Advance noted a very odd sort of animal found in Timmins while a cellar was being dug here. The animal was a form of mole, no doubt, but was not familiar to anwone in town who looked at it. Apâ€" parently, Powassan is not going to be owi«tone by any mere cellar animal nor is 1. going to boast of anything as comâ€" mon as a sea serpent. Accordingly Powassan has discovered a fish or water animal that is an oddity to this country, though said to be common enough in Southern waters.

In Timrains the transients have been getâ€" ting one meal a day, but there is no soup kitchen for them to gather at and the agitators to hatch rlots. Instead, they secure their meals from regular restaurants and boarding houses and consequently they have no grounds for the kind of trouble such as had ocâ€" curred at Kirklnd Lake. The relief officer at Kirkland Lake has been asâ€" saulted on more than one occasion and other officials have had coffee and soup thrown in their faces. Last week one foreigner in Kirkland Lake was arresâ€" ted for throwing a cup of hot coffee in the face of the relief officer. As a reâ€" sult of this sort of trouble and also due to the fact that this sort of relief costs so much with no return, except in trouble, it is likely that Kirkland Lake will close down its soup kitchen altoâ€" gether. We arise in the morning, contact a cake of sap briefly, a shaving brush more extensively. We contact a pair of eggs, a street car conductor, and finâ€" ally the office. There is an unpleasant contact with a bill collector. He says he must contact some money. Later perkaps, we contact a customer or two. When the shades of night have conâ€" tacted the earth, we contact dinner, and pass the evening contacting poor bridge hands. And so to bed.

They (From the Louisville Courjerâ€"Jcurnal) According to reports from Kirkliand Lake there is a big chance that the township of Teck will discontinue the feeding of transients there. There has been a lot of trouble in the matter. Last year the township was giving the transients two meals a day. This year on acount of financial stress this had to be reduced to a meal a day. Right along the transients, most of whom seem to be foreigners and led by the nose by reds, have given a lot of trouble. They have staged parades and taken part in other improper activities to inâ€" sult and annoy the people who were feeding them.

An editorial in The Kirkland Lake North News last week says:â€"*"Patrons of the pullman cars on Toronto trains have often wondered why the company, in spite of the steady business they reâ€" ceive, equip the trains with old, worn out pullmans. One commercial man stated to The Northern News that he dreads the long trip north on account of the squeaky cars that are on that train, cars in which sleep is practically impossible. He could not understand why trip that most surely is a paying one should have pullmen cars such as he described. Since the Canadian Naâ€" tional Raillway has reduced the service on transâ€"Canada runs there must be many upâ€"toâ€"date pullmans not now in service to say nothing of enough obâ€" servation cars to equip trains 46 and 47. These trains so equipped would help considerably to combat the auâ€" tomobile on trips up into the north country, besides giving the traveller un opportunity of viewing the grandeur of the country as the train passes through one of Canada‘s natural parks." The Barrier Examiner says:â€""At some cof those happy annual family reâ€" unions held this year ‘family trees‘ have been read with much interest. To preâ€" pare accurately one of these records, reaching back several generations and covering various branches, is no small undertaking, but the results are surely worth while. It is well, for the rising generation particularly, to have a knowledge of the genealogical record of one‘s own folk and the value of this is greatly increased if there is coupled with it the story of some of the outâ€" standing incidents in connection with the ancestors, particularly those who rloneered in this country. The story of the lives of these pioneers, in which emphasis was laid on such sterling qualities as honesty, thrift, industry, patience, courage and neighbourliness, should be an inspiration to their deâ€" cendants and a steadying influence in times of stress. These annual reunions which serve to keep alive the family traditions are indeed both pleasant and beneficial." "These are days when agreements seem to be popular among the nations, and it should be fairly easy for counâ€" tries which have so much inherent goodâ€"will toward each other, as have the members of the British Commonâ€" wealth, to reach agreements of mutual benefit. It is confidently expected by most observers that much of utmost concern to the people of Northern Onâ€" tario will emanate from the parleys. In fact, it is not without the bounds of probability that questions bearing the greatest possible importance ‘to ‘the future prosperity of the north as a whole may be settled by the statesmen now gathering at Ottawa. "Undocubtedly the conference, by stimulating goodâ€"will and confidence, will do much to keeri business on the ipward trend, where it seems to have made a start." BETTER PULLMAN CARS ARE ASKED FOR THE NORTH RUN ence, along with metropolitan newsâ€" papers of the chief cities of the Emâ€" pire. Mr. Ed. Loney, mining and inâ€" dustrial editor of this paper, will perâ€" sonally attend the sessions. This move was decided upon in order that the readers of The Star might have the opâ€" portunity of keeping in close touch with developments at the Ottawa meetâ€" ing as they directly affect the mining, power and lumbering industries in Northern Ontario. The Star readily appreciates the wide ramifications of he conference, particularly with reâ€" spect to base and rtrecious metal minâ€" ing and the lumbering industry, and as the meeting is likely to go down in history as one of the most important ever held in Canada, it is intended that, through the instrumentality of this newspaper, the people of Northern Onâ€" tario may be well informed as to the deliberations and decisions made by the conference upon matters that directly affect their immediate livelihood and their prosperity.

A few days ago Townâ€" ship Clerk J. W. McBain proved the truth of this old saying when someâ€" body came up to him on the street and said, "Weren‘t you with the 170th Battalion at Camp Borden?" His quesâ€" tioner was a travelling man named Conklin and it so happened they had not seen one another for about 17 years when each was "forming fours" under canvas at Bordon. The clerk, by the way, went overseas with the 170th and later served in France as a driver. Farmer‘s Advocate:â€"Canada should not built too much on a Democratic victory in the next United States preâ€" sidential election. We have always enâ€" joyed better trade connections with Uncle Sam when the Democrats were in the saddle, but the Democrats are a minofity party, and even should they win this time, any trade concessions enacted might be shortâ€"lived. It will probably be safer in the long run to tie up to the British market where we might at least expect permanency. "Those who have seen the terrain through which the new T. N. O. exâ€" tension passes, and the attractive locaâ€" tion occuprled by the townsite of Mooâ€" sonee, are convinced that the natural resources of the whole area will, in time, prove to make the line a paying institution, just as the railway from North Bay to Cochrane and Timmins has justified its existence by opening up new mining and agricultural wealth. "The large deposits of lignite coal at Onakawana, the possibilities of the iran ore on Belcher Islands in James Bay, the discovery and partial development of the fire clay deposits, the pulpw3sod and timber resources of the district north of Cochrane, together with the extensive agricultural land, may in the aggregate, justify Hon. E. C. Drury‘s reference to the James Bay extension as the "golden key‘" that will unlock all these resources and transform them into untold weaith for the people of this province and of the Dominion."

As a summe ing and hunting centre, eventuate.
