Several systems have been evolved, some with light machines, of the Gypsy Moth type, and others with medium weight machines, such as the Vedette, the Fairchild, and in the early days the redoubtable HS2L. Some outâ€" lying territorial districts have been orâ€" ganized for coverage entirely by air, with marked success. Though there is bound to be some diversity of opinion as to whether aerial fire patrol is more effective than a towâ€" er system, and whether a light, inexâ€" pensive machine is better than a meâ€" dium weight machine in detection purâ€" poses, an analysis seems to show that fire and This ind impcrta concent the poir tive.

The first mile was not so bad for the tenâ€" derfoot. He broke out into a profuse sweat at the second mile, at the end of which a halt was made. He looked around to see how the others were making out and found that they had not turned a hair. One oldtimer in particular seemed to be as cool as a cucumber, although he not only had somewhat diffident about butting a scheme that seemed to be w( without friction and to the satist; of all hands. Eventually he found his load had been selected for hi looked no larger than the other a very fair division of labor s to have been made. "Not long ago the writer listened to a man, now highly successful in the mining industry, describe one of his first prospective trips. Pifteen years ago, with five other men, all wise oldâ€" timers, he left the C. N. R. at LaReine, Quebec, went up the river to Lake Abiâ€" tibi, crossed that large body of water in a gasoline boat, unloaded the supâ€" plies into canoes, went up the Mattaâ€" wescow river for ten miles or so and then tock to a long, nine mile portage, leaving the canoes behind. The supâ€" plies were sufficient for three weeks stay for the party and included such articles as blankets, a grindstone, an anvil, a bag of smithing coal, stove pipes and elbows and a crosscut saw, as well as canned goods, flour, bacon, other edibles and utensils. When all the material was laid out on the river bank in the early morning, very little was said by anyone; each man went about assembling a load, adjusting tump lines, arranging things apparâ€" about assembling a load, adjustin tump lines, arranging things appar ently without any concerted plan. Th newcomer, quite m greenhorn, wa "Prospecting like all other professions, has its technique and it extends conâ€" siderably beyond mineralogical knowâ€" ledge. On a special occasion the conâ€" ductor of this column attempted to enumerate the things that a prospector had to be expert in and it made a long story; the qualifications ranged from cookery to poetry. In somewhere beâ€" tween these extremes there is lodged the ability to pack supplies througn the bushâ€"a special art and one in which the adept indulges in strange subterâ€" fuges. With this point in view the following from "Grab Samples" makes interesting reading:â€"â€" Prospectors generally are a humorous lot, fond of fun, appreciating anything in the line of a joke, and always ready to make their own fun. They would have a doubly hard time if they werel not. Indeed, were it not for the fun they would make for themselves they would not likely be able to carry through some of the difficult situations they encounter. In reading the folâ€" | lowing article from "Grab Samples" in | The Northern Miner this fact should not be forgotten. If oldâ€"time prosâ€" | pectors loaded up a greenhorn they would do it more from the idea of a joke and to teach the new man the tricks of the game than from any purâ€" pose of piling work on him for their own benefit. Everybody can depend upon it that they would not carry the | joke far enough to let him suffer any| real injury. If he were to become sick their attitude would show their kindâ€" ness of heart. The newcomer would get the benefit all the way along. Rightly they consider that to make him | tired would really hurt him but do him good in every way. If he were really in difficulties he could see the the real spirit of the oldâ€"time prospecâ€"| tors. This applies to prospectors as a| body, There are exceptions, of course, both ways. There are prospectors who wouldn‘t overload the veriest greenâ€"| horn. There may be some that would. The point that The Advance is trying to make is that generally speaking the overloading would be a matter more of | humour than of selfishness. The averâ€" age oldâ€"time prospector hasn‘t much of ] selfishness about him. Knowing literâ€"| ally hundreds of prospectors The Adâ€" vance can say that the vast majority| are the best fellows. They would give their lives for partners on the trail. But they do like their fun. And why not? * it A A N 1 | mining companies. a long lift you‘ll know enough to make up your own pack."

Hoodlums at Elk Lake Fined for Poor Tricks That Gdecent people are entitled to protection from hoodlums has always been a principle observed by Magistrate Atkinson, and at Haileybury the other day the magistrate gave proof that he intended to see that lawâ€"abiding people are protected from the cowards and disâ€" crderly. The Haileyburian last week says : â€" "Three young men from Elk Lake were fined $10 and costs, in all $28.25 apiece, and heard themselves described by the bench as "common hoodlums" and "miserable cowards‘"‘ when they apâ€" peared before Magistrate Atkinson in police court at Haileybury last Friday and were convicted on charges of creâ€" ating an unlawful disturbance by shoutâ€" ing and incommoding the peaceful pasâ€" sage of two residents of their home | community.

The "It was a long day for the newcomer. He fell behind on the third lap and did catch up. He came in about two hours late, exhausted, threw down his accursed load and relieved his feelâ€" ings with a long burst of inspired proâ€" fanity. He thoroughly canvassed the remotest ancestry of the man who had invented the crosscut saw, he reflected seriously upon the mentality of anyone who would take an anvil and grindstone nine miles into the bush. After he had calmed down he began to notice the delighted grins of the boys. Presently they burst out laughing and wound up the overdue explanation by saying, "Never mind, kid.
