_Jt has often been said that a soldier can make his own pleasure and this was true of the smoker put on by the entertainment committee of the Canaâ€" dian Legion, Timmins on Monday evenâ€" ing. The result was a very good night of fun and interesting items. There was a fair attendance and when Comâ€" F. Raymond opened the programme (without the usual chairman‘s remarks) it was evident that a good ¢vening was in store. Comrade W. A. Devine was in good form at the piano and with one and all singing the old trench songs it became a full voice rehearsal for Vimy Night. It was stated that these songs were never sung with such vim and pep. The feature of the evening was a physical culture display by Mr. Ansara, of the Classic Athletic Club, and after withessing this exhibition of muscleâ€"display and weightâ€"lifting, it is predicted that this club will ‘be overâ€" run with Legionnaires who are out to beat his record â€"liftâ€"200 lbs. one hand. Comrade Dowse gave two very fine vocal solos and it is hoped to hear from him again at an early date. Comâ€" rade Bob May, had all singing his chorus, "Old Shanty Town." Another hit was the pianoforte selections renâ€" dered by the pianist of the evening. these selections bringing prolonged and loud ‘applause. Several other members rendered recitations and songs among these being Comrade R. Weir, Comrade Smi.th and Comrade P. Raymond. Stepâ€" dancing was also featured.

Fortunately, the fire, which ‘originatâ€" ed under the fiocring of the second storey, was discovered while in its early stages, and before it had time to spread to other parts of the building. It was extinguished within an hour‘s time. DAMAGE TO EXTENT OF $12,000 TO BUILDING AT NORTH BAY Damage estimated at $12,000 resultâ€" ed from a fire of undetermined crigin in a three storey building at 45â€"47 Main street west, North Bay, owned jrintly by M. McGuinty and J. M. Bourke, North Bay, and the Egan Estate, Otâ€" tawa, at about 9.30 o‘clock Saturday night. ‘The loss was covered by insurâ€" ance. /# The fire loss to the building proper was set by the owners at the time at roughly $10,000 while additional damâ€" age of approximately $2,000 was done to valuable books artd office furniture and equipment in the office of McDonald and Tilley, barristers, located at the front of the second floor of the buildâ€" ing.

"What is happening just now with reference to Canadian curâ€" rency," he said, " is difficult to explain. If it is slipping, then it is in the direcâ€" ticn of sterling, but nobody knows what is happening, so secret are the moves being made in the financial sections of the world." Promising all comers equal rights with Canadians, Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines addressing the Roâ€" tary Club at the Royal York hotel, Toâ€" ronto, last week extended â€"a welcome to American financiers to invest in the gold fields of Ontario money that was not an attractive investment today in their local industries, mortgages, etc. "Last week," he said, "I had the pleasure of a visit north with a group of gentlemen from New York. These men were wealthy financiers with a large clientele of friends who look to them for advice as to their investments. "We say to the world and to the gentlemen from New York, "Here we have great potential holdings of gold mines, paying good dividends. Come up and have a look at them. See for yourselves the magnitude of the enterâ€" prise and learn at first hand the proâ€" bable length of life of the mines. "‘You can invest your money in good gold mines. . You are not getting much interest in your big centres. Money is piling up. We welcome your investâ€" ment in our mines in the province of Ontario, not only those already known as gold pnroducers but in the new mines that will take their place.‘" Equal Rights Invites Investment in Mines In recent weeks surface plant has been reâ€"arranged and some new buildâ€" ihgs have been erected. Following the copening up of the proâ€" jected 600 and 750â€"foot levels, a decision as to the size of the mill and when it "will be built will be done.

To facilitate this work and to permit an expansion in the scale of operations a second Deisel engine is being installâ€" ed. The compressor it will drive is now being erected. It is calculated that this equipment will carry work throsugh to the time when the mine is ready to go cn a producing basis. Diamond drilling below the 450â€"foot level has given some most interesting sections and has proved the extension of the veins below the level. Some quite high sections have been found, but their full importance will have to be determined by actual development. The best ore section so far exposed is on the 450â€"foot level, where a section 240 feet in length is calculated to averâ€" age $10 across drift width. tained.

KIRKLAND LAKE GIRL GIVEN NAME FOR BEING LOVING He said that ‘the iaforesaid comely young lady jumped up on his lap, threw her arms around his neck and otherâ€" wise showed her affection. Then they needed a drink and drove to Pouffe‘s house, where the taxiâ€"driver claimed they were served with liquor though he did not recall seeing any money paid over for the drinks. The young lady‘s story was somewhate different. Her version was that she bought some drinks, paying $1.00 for the first couple of rounds, 95 cents for the last round, the taxiâ€"driver paying 75 cents of the latter amount. Pouffe‘s story was difâ€" ferent from either of the other two.

A.~Mutch, Mining Engineer, Says A significant change in professtonal opinicn regarding free gold in mines of Northwestern Quebec is indicated in a â€"survey of the Cadillac township property of Canadian Pandora: Gold Mines, Ltd., just completed ‘by Douglas A. Mutch, mining engineer. In the course of his report Mr. Mutch stresses the impqrtance of native content, usuâ€" ally removed before sampling‘ but. reâ€" ccverable in milling, in ores of proâ€" ducing mines in the district. Citing Granada Gold Mines as an example, Mr. Mutch states that during a threeâ€"day mill run ore was carefully sampled and assayed as it went to the mill. The results obtained day were as follows: $2 per ton, $7.230 per ton, and 60 cents per ton. Actual gold recovery for these same three days was $14.25, $16.80 and $12 20 per ton of ore milled. "Here we have a striking example of the important part which free gold plays®in ores of this type," he points out. Granada has just completed mill installation having a capacity of 300 tons »daily. Recovery is ranging beâ€" tween $12 and $15 per ton. Prove Profitable Similarly Mr. Mutch, by giving exâ€" cerpts from government reports on cperations in Northwestern Quebec, shows that little attention was paid in the early days to free gold content, emâ€" phasis rather being laid on the narrowâ€" ness and irregularity of ore shoots. On the O‘Brien Cadillac property, a 100â€" ton mill, is in profitable operation, which profitable mining was considerâ€" ed doubtful a few years ago, is producâ€" ing well over $1,000,000 in gold per year, milling 225 tons perâ€"_day with average Native Metal Boosts Mill Recoverâ€" ies in Northwestern ‘Quebec.

The comâ€" pany now has its shaft down â€"1,000 feet and is developing extremely highâ€"grade ore over good width to the 850 level. Reporting to Canadijan Pandora diâ€" rectors Mr. Mutch states development on the company‘s property has located and partially proven ‘three promising goldâ€"bearing veins, designed: from north to scuth as the Bell, No. 5 and South veins. These show widths of from few inches to seven feet and: contain gold values with northerly veins giving values largely in the free sbat,e They have beeh attacked on surfate. and at 125 and 250 feet for a length of 500 feet along the formation, ‘which :extends across the property for twoâ€"and a half miles. MaSa 8 \o o Drilling Recommenided In addition to further drifting he recommends diamond drilling and shaft sinking to 500 feet ‘and forwardâ€" ing of bulk samples of ore for testing at Ottawa. Declaring that the comâ€" pany can capitalize the missionary work done by others in the area, Mr. Mutch states: "Wth the above recomâ€" mendations carried out I ‘believe that in the course of not more than eight months‘ your property will show conâ€" tinuity of important gold deposition at depth that will justify further recomâ€" mendations having to do with preparaâ€" tions for production." Regarding the section as a whole he cbserves there can be no question but that there will be a numberâ€"oof importâ€" ant gold producers developed along the formation on which the property is located. "Such properties should add tremendously to . the output of gold from Northwestern Quebec which, during the past seven years, has risen from around $25,000 to over $9,000, 000 yea,rly,” he concludes.
