The Clear Lake Porcupine property has been in the public eye for some time past. The results from work done on the property have been most encourâ€" aging and there is a general tendency to be confident that this is a property that is going to develop into a real mine. The general feeling is that the Forcupine camp at the present time is on the eve of a wide revival of interest in mining development and that the Clear Lake Porcupine Syndicate claims are among the first of a number of very promising properties that will be develâ€" oped in the near future. Operations will be watched with close interest. McArthur include J. A. Therriault, Wyman W. Orr, Jos.

The parade started from the corâ€" ner of Birch street and went up Third avenue, along Spruce, down Fourth avenue, and back to the starting point. he parade was only a brief affair, the paraders assembling on the vacant Ilot near the rink, where they were adâ€" dressed by several of their speakers. There was a crowd ‘of two or three‘ thousand spectators out to see the parâ€" ade, large numbers of these being childâ€" ren.

Permisâ€" sion for the parade had been granted by the town council on the condition that the Union Jack be carried and that the banners be submitted for approval to the chief of police.

KONSTANTIN VON NEURATH This is cleanâ€"up time and there are scores of little jobs around to be done. There are also the odd jobs of repair or improvement around the house. Just sit down and think and you will be surprised at the number of odd jobs you will be able to give out. Every such job, even though it may mean only an hour or two of work will prove a blessing to the honest and carnest felâ€" low who is trying to get along. This is one of the finest ways to help the unemployed. You will be sure ‘that your money goes to deserving cases. For the past two years the people of Timmins have done much to relieve unemployment by giving odd jobs. The hour or two hours work has proved a blessing to numbers of men out of employment. A number of men have actually been able to keep off relief and still keep themselves going simply by this plan of odd jobs. It is surâ€" prising how big a help this is. If you have an odd job that normally you would do yourself, just phone 218, the Employment Bureau, and Mr. Garner will send you a suitable man to do the work. You won‘t miss the small cost of this service and the man getting the work will benefit more than would apâ€" pear possible. You will get good value for the cost. You will get the best of service. If you have an odd job to be done phone 218 in the daytime and If you think of The Club Royal orchestra has been engaged for the season so as to provide the best of music for dancing.
