Aiken left Kapuskasing for Kirkland Lake, where he has transferred his aental practice. His son George went with him. Dr. Aiken has been in town for over five years, and has been foreâ€" most in curling and lawn bowling cirâ€" cles. In these two sports he has won more trophies than any other player, there is no question. Yet he will take defeats with the best of grace, proving himself a good sportsman. Many a nipâ€"andâ€"tuck game the doctor has piloted through as skip to victory on the ice or the green, and often there is a gallery of spectators to watch his skill with admiration. On Wednesday night some of his close friends dropped in on him and presented him with a wrist watch as a memento of the friendship they have enjoyed with him. The rest of the evening was spent aliâ€" biing their defeats at his hands, etc., etec. The beost wishes of many friends go with Dr. Aiken to Kirkland Lake, who know that he will pull well with the sportsmen in the new gold camp. He told the editor on parting that he will lose no time in trying to get lawn bowling under way down there; and if ‘ this materializesâ€"we‘ll be seeing you,. Doc, old sport." 1 North Bay Nugget:â€"One sclution for world troubles suggested by our garage man is that the world needs more self starters and fewer cranks. Friends in Timmins of Dr. J. A.

What will they do next year? If only ten per cent. are now reported as failures under this plan, how will the record stand this time next yvear? The Advance does not question the figures given, but sincerely hopes that the impression given by the report proves trye in the years to come. Of course, as the matter stands the figures prove nothing and really mean nothing. The settlers who have houses built will be all right during the winter so long as they secure their food either directly or indirectly from the Govâ€" ernment. It is for next year and the following year That the clearing is needed and imperative. This year the settlers can do little in the way of keeping themselves. They can not have a crop until next year. If they have eight or ten acres cleared ready for cropping in the spring, they will likely pull through all right, if they are the right type. Without«the needâ€" ed clearing, however, it is difficult to see how they can be other then charges on the Government. The fact that the settlers are being placed on partlyâ€"clearâ€" ed farms so far as this is possible is a very hopeful sign that the committee is trying to do its part. It is proof of what The Advance has advocatedâ€" that each homestead should have a clearing of eight or ten acres ready, with buildings erected. Otherwise it is difficult, indeed, to see how the setâ€" tlers can hcope to get along. It is the lack of clearing, and thus being unable to harvest any crop, that has made pioneer work so difficult for the old settlers in the North. To engage gangs of the right sort of men to do clearâ€" ing, build houses, etc., was the idea that The Advance had as a means of proâ€" viding the new settlers of the North with some chance of success. There are not enough farms here now, partly cleared, that are ready for occupancy,. so if any number of settlers are brought into the North under this plan selves on their tracts of land and have built cabins for thenselves and their families. Wherever possible the comâ€" mittee has aided by placing men on partially cleared land abandoned at various times by earlier settlers and lending help of bush and road emâ€" ployees of the Northern Development Branch. The majority of the new settlers, the report added, have established themâ€" A despatch last week from Toronto says that the Ontario Reliet Land Settlement Committee announced on Friday that of 194 South Ontario men it has placed on land in Northern Onâ€" tario only. 19 have failed to make good. Of these, the committee said, two deâ€" serted and 17 were dismissed for malâ€" ingering.

In police court this week a young man from Schumacher was charged with having pinâ€"tailed grouse and spruce partridge=in his possession unâ€" lawfully.

As soon as ice is available in Timmins rink it is thought that a schedule for Timâ€" mins and South Porecupine will be made out and possession of the Keiuning troâ€" | phy decided before the league schedule | for the NOH.A. is started. Timmins ! are the present holders of the trophy. |lare back home this year. Others are in the camp whom report says have hockey ability and it won‘t be long now till they can prove whether it is up to a standard that will catch the fancy of | Porcupine fans. Mr. Archie Briden, | who is to coach the team this year, has a long experience in pro hockey from Atlantic to Pacific coast and this range of vision of what has been done in other teams should give him a great insight as to what is best here. He has the confidence of both the team and the pecple. Besides, he is a Norâ€" thern product having first played hocâ€" key in Haileybury, before the war. After the armistice was signed and he had seen three year‘s service overseas, \he played amateur hockey with Edâ€" ! monton Eskimos in 1919, 1920 and 1921. Then he turned professional being on the Seattle lineâ€"up when the Coast League was associated closely with the name of the Patrick brothers. After three years there, he came back to Edmonton when that city joined the pro group. In 1926 he was with Calâ€" \ gary Tigers. By 1927 he had jumped ] across the continent and lined up with |the famous Boston Bruins. 1928 saw \ him wearing the colours of the Detroit Falcons. He was with Philadelphia in the â€" Canadianâ€"American League in 1929 and in the winter of 1930â€"31 he was on the ice with Pittsburgh Pirâ€" ates in the National League. Last winter he wore the colours of the Cleveland Indians. This is his first year to direct the game from the coach‘s box. ns m mm com esting. introduced The Oddfellows of South Porcupine are entertaining on a big scale in their hall on Friday night, November 25th.
