The one man was fairâ€" ly well decorated when he was run in and both fellows had freely given of their foreign blood to the soil of this country. After they were fastened in their cells, "fastened" being closer than "locked", as the cells do not really lock any more, the two fighters decided to renew tha combat. Accordingly one of them managed to get out of his cell and he released the other, the two then making use of the space in front of the cells as a battle ground. The police heard the noise of the battle and went everything looked welt at the property. It was expected that the mill would be running in a month or so at the rate 150 tons per day. H. B.

At the town council meeting ten years ago the council approved the plans for the proposed new high school building. Councillor L. S. Newton suggested the advisability of sidewalks to connect the two new schools with the town. In a note on the front page The Adâ€" vance commented on the fact that aftâ€" ter Oct. 1st, 1923, only inland revenue stamps were to be used on cheques, etc. It had been the custom to use postage stamps for cheques, but this was being stopped by the Government, as the revenue of the two departments was being confused in the use of postâ€" age stamps for cther than postal use. The Advance pointed out that in either case the Government received the same revenue (in fact they might get more from postage stamp use, because they were so much more convenient) and so the convenience of the public should be the only consideration. The use of postage stamps for this nuilsance tax was accordingly urged as a convenience to the public. The Advance ten years ago had a review of the progress made by the Viâ€" pond during the year.

The fire brigade has received great praise for its good work, usually with the suggestion added that if the combination chemical and hose motor truck had been on hand the brigade would have had better supâ€" port for their good work.

However, this is sometimes impossible, and such was the case on Friday evening last when we had to make a trip to Barrie, duringz the greater part of which motor lights were necessary, and we cannot say we enjoyed the experience. Amongst other things was the fact, very forcibly brought to our attention, that "there are lights, and lights", and if there is any one thing which should be improvâ€" ed it is the uniformity of automobile lights.

Recently, there has been so much illâ€"considered publicity about the penitentiary that discipline must be more or less disturbed and the lass the public are allowed to see of the penitentiary and the less the prisoners hear of the public the better for all concerned. There is little doubt but that Silent Bill Biddle is right in sugâ€" gesting that the Reds are responsible for the riots and unrest at Kingston penitentiary. There is room for special thought in this fact and some accomâ€" panying facts. The red element has attempted to use every means and methods to further their plans. It is not likely that they would overlook the penitentiary. If their pink comâ€" patriots on the outside gain any measâ€" ure of ascendancy, the reds know that the parlour fanatics will be altogether too mild for the purposes planned for the future.

Of course, anyore who thinks about the matter can see that it would not do to make a penitentiary a sort of country fair where any curious or unbalanced person could go to see the exhibits. But, if newspapers and public men used common sense and thoughtfulness, it may be accepted as The men seemed to be on the best of terms with the warden and guards, Col. Mullins said, and the various shops and occupational classes were operating smoothly. Col. Mullins, whose interests are wide and varied, has visited many penal inâ€" stitutions in this country and the Britâ€" ish Isles. The penitentiary at Kingâ€" ston, he said, compared favourably with any he had visited, from the standpoint of morale, discipline and facilities. As The Advance has pointed out on several recent occasions there has been such skilled political machination carâ€" ried on in regard to stories about Kingâ€" ston penitentiary that many people are carried away by the sentimental outâ€" bursts, while many others are inclined to suggest that while evidently the proâ€" paganda is overdone. there may be something at the back of it all. Col. Harry A. Mullins, member of parliaâ€" ment for Marqustte, Manitoba, did not accept either of these attitudes. "I‘m going to see for myself," he said. So he did just that! He paid a surprise visit to the penientiar, at Kingston to satisfy himself with respect to reports of conditions there. In an interview later at Ottawa Col. Mullins gave his opinion about the whole matter. "I was allowed to go where I wished to go, to talk to prisoners and to exâ€" amine the conditions under which they exist," Col. Mullins said, "and I found nothing I could complain of and heard no complaints from the prisoners." Col. Harry A. Mullins, M.P., Says Con ditions at Penitentiary are Satisâ€" factory.

Assuredly things are not always what they seem, if the Indian theory is to be accepted, in regard to fires, for inâ€" stance. This theory is that a small fire is better than a big fire, because the latter is so hot you can"t get near it. Or words to that effect. The "Rovâ€" ing Reporter," writing in The Northern News explains the matter this way:â€" "Our Canadian Indians don"t think much of the white man‘s way of keepâ€" ing warm in front of a fire. Some days ago a party of Kirkland Lake duck hunâ€" ters was in the Beaver House Lake area and it was plenty cold. Too cold, alâ€" most to ‘tote a gun very long before getting to the comfortable warmth of a fire which one of the party had built. One of the Indians from the Beaver, House village chanced to be passing by and he stopped for a moâ€" ment. ~He looked at the fire and gruntâ€" ed, "White man build big fire, can‘t get warm. Indian make small fire, keep plenty warm." â€" As a matter of fact the Indian was right. Your Indian, wise to the ways of the bush, knows that he can warm himself more satisfactorily over a small fire by huddling over the flames and absorbing the heat than he can by trying to get close to a big fire. A big blaze, odd to relate keeps him too far away from the heat." Work was resumed on a small scale at the Cobalt Contact property some days ago, when A. B. Ahearn, of Toâ€" ronto, and an assistant came to the mine and started some preliminary work. The company in which Mr. Ahearn is interested is understood to have acquired interests in some adâ€" jJoining properties and mining on a fairly large scale is contemplated. The Coba‘lt Contact was worked successfully for some years, but in 1930 the low price of silver made it necessary to close down. The Cobalt Contact was mining ore of good grade when it was running and it would appear that with improvâ€" ed price for silver it should do well again.
