THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD, 1932 On several occasions it has been mentioned that not only the exâ€"serâ€" viceman but the public in general are interested in the weekly feature, "The Cansadian Legion in the Porcupine," as pnbhghed in The Advance. But it comes rmmore or less as a surprise to know that in other parts of the proâ€" vince this feature of The Advance is regularly read. This week the followâ€" ing communication was handed in and speaks for itself, As will be noted the letter wu addressed to Austin Neame, the president of the Timmins Branch of the Cmdlan Legion, and the writer of this column thanks all concerned for their good words, The letter folâ€" lows:â€" The Canadian Legion of the British Empire Austin Neame, Esq., J.P., Timmins, Ontario. Dear Neame:â€"In this morning‘s press clippings I was very much interested in the Devine articles under the headâ€" ing "The Canadian Legion in the Forâ€" ecupine" of October 6th, particularly that portion of it headed "The Dark Horse Kicking." Would you please, on behalf of this office, convey to Mr. Devine the great interest which the Command takes in his splendid articles in The Porcupine Advance which we receive from time to time through our press clipping serâ€" vice, and more particularly the article referred to above of October 6th.

In wholeâ€"hearted agreement with Miss Moir, the majority of Canadian dietitians and cookery teachers use Magic exclusipely.

In the past two years it is roughly estimated that over $3,000 has been expended in giving a helping hand where needed and in the six years of the life of the Canadian Legion branch in the Porcupine an estimated figure of $5,000 is given. It is right that all praise should be given these organâ€" izations for this portion of their constiâ€" tution as, in this time of need and distress they are doing a service of the highest kind, a humanitarian acâ€" tion, which the country is proud of. Outside of the various activities put on by the branch here, the only appeal made to the public is Poppy Day and the sloganâ€""Wear a Poppy on Poppy Day" is wellâ€"known. This year the need is great indeed, and in its appeal to the public the Legion asks for a generous response.

The first of ! these is between the stop at Diver, mileage 40, and Lake Temiskaming, while the second is on the sand plain at Gillies Depot, a few miles south of Cobalt.. From the latter point the surâ€" veyors will jump to Cochrane and proâ€" ceed west along the line of the Transâ€" continental. . ’ "A couple of men from Haileybury who spent a few days hunting at Diver last week met up with the party of surveyors who were laying out the proposed site there. It was learned that the landing field which is to be eut out is located about 10 miles from lthe railway, to the east, and about a similar distance from Lake Temiskaâ€" ming at MacLaren‘s Bay. There is an lold railway rightâ€"ofâ€"way across counâ€" try between the two points and the air station is located on a â€"small lake, where landings can be made either on the water or on the field. The counâ€" try surrounding is a sand plain, perâ€" fectly level and with not much timber, as it was lumbered over in the earlier days. "It was learned from the surveyors working on the location near Diver that an aerial survey of that district had previously been made and that by this means all the small lakes were now incorporated in maps of the locality. The site chosen is an ideal one for the purpose, according to the officials, being perfectly level and with nothing in the way of timhber but the old pine stumps and second growth. The site is one mile square and the small lake proâ€" vides a clear run of at least a mile in length. an official two years ago when he was in Haileybury in connection with the airport which has since been establishâ€" ed on Lake Temiskaming. It was thought at that time that a landing field might be provided in conjunction with the port, but apparently this has been changed and that the one at Gillies will be the closest. The fact that all the land is privately owned in the neighbourhood of Haileybury may have had some bearing on the question. "It may be taken from the surveys being made that, when the cross counâ€" try route is established it will follow the general course of the Temiskamâ€" ing and Northern Ontario Railway to Cochrane. This was suggested by ‘"While the survey is being made by officials of the Department of National Defence at Ottawa, an Ontario land surveyor is accompanying the party in the interests of the Provincial Deâ€" partment of Lands and Forests. His duties are apparently to check up on the work that is being done by the Dominion surveyors and report to the provincial department. "On Friday some members of the survey party came up to Gillies, where a start has since been made on a simiâ€" lar survey. They stated that when this was completed they could go to Cochâ€" rane and thence west along the Transâ€" continental, but were shy of giving any further details.

This would indicate, at least, not a However, the last six winters have been warmer than usual. Every month this year has shown continued tendency towards aboveâ€"normal temprratures. And the actions of the wild things inâ€" dicate, to those who believe in their weather sagacity, another mild winter. However, your guess is as good as anybody‘s. Toronto weather bureau officials do not think it has enough material at hand to permit any conâ€" clusive guess as to the coming winter. Like it, the United States bureau suzâ€" cessfully predicts weather 48 hours ahead. The United States bureau even issues an ‘"outlook" for a full week ahead. But that is as far as it is willâ€" ing to go. Weather bureau Offcials at Toronto didn‘t put much stock in the prognosâ€" tications of the birds and beasts. And Dr. Charles F. Martin, veteran head of the United States Weather Bureau at Washington complains: "Every time we think we have established sequences and cyycles for the weather, nature comes along and prove us wrong. A third man‘s response to the quesâ€" tion as to the weather for the coming winter frankly stated he hadn‘t a ghost of an idea. He offered to tell what last year‘s winter was like if that was any good. And people are like that! In Tcronto, however, they keep busy trying to arrange the weather. Here is one Toronto despatch in the matter, and when you get through it you know as much about what the weather will really be like as you did before:â€" Will the Winter be Mild or Otherwise"?
