There is extended reference in the last issue of The: Enterpriseâ€" Bulietin to the same visit. This article about the North says, in part:â€" Wellâ€"Known Editor and Mayor of Colâ€" lingwocd Writes Impressions of His Recent Visit to the North Some one asked in the press the other day, where all of Britain‘s gold came from? We wondered. but having been up in Northern Ontario during the past week we saw, not only where much gold was taken from the ‘inards‘ of Mother Earth, but whence comes much of the newsprint, which is daily and weekly converted into newspapers of the Dominion and elsewhere. Our trip was made after an interval of two years and wonderful are the changes that have been wrought, in the roads, the towns and the country as a whole, We saw evidence of progress on all sides . From Collingwood to North Bay the route is by highway No. 11 and on the way there is much pavement and many goor towns. . .. We ultimately reached North Bay, with its busy streets, wellâ€" paved roadways, fine business. places and public buildings, including its churches and several residential secâ€" tions that would do credit to a city of much greater proportion. The Gateway Now at and through the gateway, a plunge was made into the real north, the route, the only road route being the Ferguson highway, which in the two years while we were away, has been wonderfully improved, though in the fiftyâ€"six miles in the Temagami Reâ€" Mines in the North 6â€"0%. 1 Pkg. e 9 Country. (After refemng to Temagami, Latchâ€" ford, Cobalt, Haileybury, New Liskeard, Uno Fark, Thornloe, Earlton, Engleâ€" hart, the article continues:â€") Now the Gold Now, again, there is ancther mining belt, but here, at Swastika and Kirkâ€" land Lake, it is the hidden gold that is extracted from the rock. In Kirkland Lake our friend, Tresider, of the News, tells us there are fifteen thousand peoâ€" ple, all dependent on the operation and success cof the mines Kirkland Like, ‘Teckâ€"Hughes, Lake Shore and Wrightâ€" Hargreaves. The town is a busy place, «closely built along a greater part of the main street, some of the places of busiâ€" ness being substantial structures that are a credit to the mining camp and would be to older towns in older Onâ€" tario. From Swastika, into the camps, is between six and seven miles, over an asphalt pavement, which is continued through the town and on some of the stde streets. In the front window, that is along the main drag are located three of the operating mines, Kirkland Lake, Teckâ€"Hughes and Lake Shore, while Wrightâ€"Hargreaves fills in the end of a leading side street. The business places include the chain stcres, common to Ontario towns, plus many smaller shops all being so numerous that if money can buy, everything is there to be bought. One side of the situation that struck us was the matter of the cost of lliving.‘ Looking in the stores prices appeared to be practically the same as in cld Ontario, meals for exampleâ€"a real bang up mealâ€"costing fifty cents. Groceries, canned goods, fruit, with possibly the exception of fresh fruitâ€" are in most cases marked at the prices we know here in Collingwood. serve there are yet hundreds of curves, up and down and sideways. So numerâ€" are these that a breakâ€"neck speed fimpanlble, while for the motorist, the scenery is all the same. To forget the sign, ‘keep to the right‘ would mean disaster. the hills and curves being short and sharp. However, it is a deâ€" lightful drive. It is next to Nature. With towering pines on either side, with rabbits dodging hither and thither at the sound of a car, with a partridge standing stupidly on the road, a fawn or deer slipping into the forest, a ground hog waddling across or a porcuâ€" pine somewhat lazily trying to disapâ€" pear, there is always something of inâ€" terest. Oh yes, there is the numerous camps on‘ the shores of pretty lakes. It may all be a solitude, but it is the place to close out the world and live next to the grandeur of the great uniâ€" On To Timmins Curiosity, plus a desire to call on our newspaper friend, George Lake, of The Porcupine Advance, led us to Timmins, the largest town of the North and with its adjoining towns of Schumacher, south Porcupine and Forcupine having a combined population of between 15,â€" 000 and 20,000. On the way was seen the wreckage of fond hopes in the form of tumbled down buildings, odd bits of machinery, all of which had in earlier days been brought in to extract fortunes from ‘the rock. In places but an odd resident remains, while a sccre. fifty or a hundred make the comunity. The Pulp Area From Monteith we went through Anâ€" sonville to Ircquois Falls, a model town of the Abitibi Power and Paper CO., a headquarters of the pulp area and inâ€" dustry. Here there is a well planned centre with pretty curves, triangles, and squares arranged with the idea of conâ€" venience and utility and added to by beautiful shrubbery anc@ trees. The streets are paved, the homes of modern design and surrounded with well kept lawns and boulevards and small garâ€" dens at the rear. In the town is a large central store, a hospital of thirtyâ€"five beds, well equipped, a large hotel, a golf course at the front door, curling and skating rinks, gcod schools and other modern necessities, all, of course, being centred around the large paper mill of the company, which, by the way, is now operating more extensively than it has been for some time, and which, it should be interjected, is said to be the most <â€" economical production mill . of Ontario. â€" Iroquois FPalls is truly a clean healthy town and in its makeâ€"up has a jolly social life, where friends are real friends. ' More Farms Continuing northward our trip took us ‘back in a farming district, ofâ€"which Matheson," Ramore and Monteith are centres, the farms with wocd crops bearing the appearance of care and cultivation. Kirkland Lake is a town of young men, a town, we should say, for young men. It was Saturday afterncon when we were there the streets were thronged with men, twenty, twentyâ€" five, and up to forty all apparently enâ€" jJoying life. Coincident with the writing of this sketchy outline of the North there came to our desk, a monthly letter of the Royal Bank of Canadaâ€"a lengthy and interesting survey of business conâ€" ditions. In the cturse of it, a couple of paragraphs are devoted to the situaâ€" tion as to base metals. These tell that the gold production in Ontario has been well maintained, and goes on to say, "the value of the output during the first five months of the years was $18,700,000 as compared with $19,000,000, in the corresponding period of 1932%. Operaâ€" tions at all established camps in other provinces have continued and progress has been made in various development works. Exploration was pushed vigorâ€" ously all winter. With the opening of spring, equipment and supplies were sent in and many promising prospects are being tested. Every indication points to a satisfactory year for the gold producers. For a long pericd all shipments of gold have been going to the United States to the exclusion of Great Britain. That situation has now been completely reversed; $8,717,616 in gold was sent ts Great Britain in May and only $119,983 to the United States." And further, "higher prices for silver and other metals have resulted in inâ€" creased interest in these mines and some increase in cperations is anticiâ€" pated if prices continue firm. Nickel sales have been holding un well and operations at Sudbury have recently been increased from 20 per cent. to 40 per cent. of capacity. Exports on nicâ€" kel are als> better, the total shipped in May amounting to 45,676 hundredâ€" weight against 18,452 hundredweight in May, 1932. The bulk of these exports was destined to Great Britain.‘" their neighbours that Canada and Britain obtains a gcodly share of its gold. But cur story must stop. In closing, Ontario has a wonderful North Land. Forest, stream, tourist play grounds, farms, pulp and mineral all stand toâ€" ‘gethtr as ‘a ‘combination of able wealth. If holiday bent, â€"go north, if it is business go north, if it is opporâ€" tunity that is desired and you are young go northâ€"That is our message. F Note To the above The Advance would add the advice to all, "If you are loOking for a job DON‘T come North at presâ€" ent." Ineach of such towns as Timâ€" mins there are 1000 out of regular work and with little chance of getting it. It is no use coming North to look for what is not hereâ€"work enough for all. ‘There is scarcely a line‘ of business here that is not overdone. What the North needs now is capital to develop its reâ€" sources. Try The Advance Want Advertisements E. N. Ward won from Ggo. Adams.
