Dancing will be from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Members may invite partners. Invitations for the event have been sent out forâ€" the event. The Porecupine Badminton Club has achieved a large membership and a wide popularity and the opening dance will ‘be sure to attract a large attendance toâ€"morrow (Friday) evenâ€" ing. The date is "Friday the thirâ€" teenth" but to those who like a pleasâ€" ant dance and attend the event it will be a lucky occasion.

Opening Dance Friday of Porcupine Badminton Club in the district recently. The police followed up all possible clues and had much evidence against the men, especiâ€" ally in regard to the South Porcupine robbery and the assault of the Chinaâ€" man. This week two of the men adâ€" mitted taking part in the robbery of the Chinaman, making written confesâ€" sion to this effect. They implicated the third man. The three men held are Pete Shalif and Joseph Yonick, 106 Cameron street and Frank Kushma, 109 Commercial avenue. It appears as if the Timmins police had solved the recent assault and robâ€" bery of a Chinese restaurant keeper at South Porcupinée Three men entered the back door of the restaurant struck the Chinaman with a stone or other weapon and took over $90.00 from the pocket of the disabled mar®" Bloodâ€" stains on the door post seemed about the only clues to the robbery, there being fingerprints in the bloodstained wood. The police at South Porcupine worked on the case but had a difficult time to secure any proof until this week. On Friday, the Timmins police folâ€" lowing up clues of other offences here, placed three men under arrest. A small quantity of highâ€"grade was found on the premises where two of the men lived. The three were held on charges cf vagrancy, but suspicion also pointed to them in some of the holdâ€"up cases in the district recently.

His back was scarcely turned, however, ‘before the young fellow was scut and away and at his old game of begging "the price of a meal." The police came along and caught him at the begging game and he was taken in |charge as a vagrant. In police court he pleaded not guilty, but the evidence of N.

There is no doubt that many !follow plans of this sort. They do not ;want work, will refusge work when ofâ€" | fered, and intend to live on the generâ€" | osity of others.

This sort of beggar makes cases of need, simply because some case like this has come under his obâ€" servation. This sort of beggar makes the part of the honest and decent lad who may happen to have encountered hard luck so much more difficult. There are lots of men who would much prefer to earn a meal than sponge one, and it is just such cases as the one mentioned here that makes it so hard for the willing fellow to get along. At the present time there are a lot of transients coming into town from all parts of the country. Some of these men are all right, but the bad ones make it almost impossible for the averâ€" age man to help any of them.

It was a humâ€"dinger and started the night off in the right way. From the start it was evident that the Brooklyn lad would have no trouble, He poundâ€" ed and slashed Bergeron at will and gave him the worst beating that he ever got in Timmins. Young Davey had speed to spare and seemed to be everywhere at the one time. Had it not been for the large weight handicap, a great many thought he would have knocked Bergeron out. He certainly is a sweet little fighting machine and the public won‘t be satisfied ti‘l they see more of him. In the second preliminary the crowd saw plenty of action when Farmer Nesâ€" ble, 1514 local idol, and Jack Burgar, oi San Diego, 148, met in a slugfest battle that went the limit.

He tore in with everything and had Burgar in a daze A knockout and a doubtful decision seemed to mar a fine boxing card at the skating rink last night. The k.o. didn‘t hurt the card so much because the crowd expected it, but the decision was disappointing to many. Ringside figâ€" ures gave Johnson 45 points and 35 for Dempsey, yet the latter was given the fight. Undoubtedly the judges gave it as they saw it, but the fight fans seemâ€" ed to see it otherwise. However, Dempâ€" sey is popular in town and district and all like to see him coming along. The crowd was small and as a conâ€" sequence it was easily handled.

It is considerable time since the elecâ€" tric lights and power were off for more than a few minutes in this town. Perhaps it is for this reason that the failure of the lights last night caused so much annoyance and discomfort. When darkness descended there were few people indeed, who could find the candles they used last time. Last night a minute or two before nine o‘clock the lights and power went off through the greater*part of the town. The main business section of the town was particularly affected. Not very long after candles had been loâ€" cated and lit the lights came back again. On two separate occasions beâ€" fore eleven n»‘clock the lights went out again. The third time they came back on was the last of the trouble, the lights functioning as well as ever for the reâ€" mainder of the evening and the early morning. ‘The cause of the three breaks in the service was given as being due to difficulties in the transmission equipment.

Below is another angle on the same week and the basic idea beneath it all: "Ontario‘s farm products are freshâ€" est and best"â€"such is the slogan by which the farmers of Ontario hope to make the housewives of this banner province conscious o6f the value of buyâ€" ing more and more of Ontario grown food products. Economically, of course, the arguments in favour of consuming Ontario grown farm products are even greater. The farmer represents about half of usâ€"if he can sell his products in Ontario he can spend his money hereâ€" for the goods or services so many town and city folk are interested in putting before him. A special window display of Ontario food products is being made by grocers, fruit stores, meat and proâ€" vision stores and every good citizen should see that the pantry shelves are well stocked with Ontario fruits, vegeâ€" tables and meat products and keep up the good work throughout the year not only for the farmer‘s sake but for selfâ€"interest.
