DREW, Mayor of the Town of Timmins Try The Advance Want Advertisements at present under development. At Pipestone Bay MacKenbzie Red Lake has completed its shaft to a depth of 270 feet, preparatory to proceeding with underground _ Gevelopment. Several others, including McManus Red Lake, have plans under consideration for proceeding to active development this year. During the three mon‘ths‘ period endâ€" ed Sept. 30, 1933, the value of bullion shipments from the Red Lake field was $283,000, an increase of $1,600 over last year‘s record. Hopes are entertained that the flow of gold next year will be increased by shipments from properties The fact that Howey has been able to wrest a profit from ore averaging less than $3 a ton, with ‘the aid of the exchange compensation and recent high price for gold, has encouraged the beâ€" lief that many other properties may be opened up with fair chances of becomâ€" ing successful mines. Numerous old prospects that were staked in the first flush of enthusiasm for the field have been restaked and are now undergoing an examination. NOTABLE ACTIVITY IN THE RED LAKE DISTRICT NOW THE PORCUPTNE ADVANCTET, TRAiIN§, oNTARTO %{ League Organized of Catholic Women * lt ul | â€"Thera was a large attendance at the meeting held in the Goldfields theatre on Sunday evening in the interests of the CC.F. The special speaker for the evening was Dr. Lorna Colton, of Toâ€" ronto, who proved more eloquent and clever than any of the previous speakâ€" ers coming here to expound CCF. doctrine. A. M. Stuart, C.C.F. candidate for the provincial house for this riding lalso spoke briefly. Dr. Colton spoke at much length, taking up each of the points in the C.C.F. platform. She proved a very able and pleasing speakâ€" er and held the attention of the audiâ€" ence in effective way. She denied that the C.C.F. was red or dis‘oyal and had several slaps at the old line parties, the newspapers and others, She seemed inâ€" clined to suggest that everything and everybody was tied up with the finanâ€" cial interests, except the CCF. The latter she described as the party of the poor. She claimed that the speakers had to pay their own expenses often. the ailso claimed that the CC.F. is ervwing at rapid rate. The party was | oppaosed to v.olence and wished to make changes in ~rderly and lawâ€"abiding way. The programme adopted at the open conention in the West was dealt with point by point. Political leaders and newspapers and others came in for criticisin. Her address was an easy one to listen to, but after it was over, several who heard the clever talk were still completely in the dark | as to how the wonders promised were to be put into effect along the indicated by the speaker. All were agreed, however, that as a political party address it would rank high with those people who did not disagree with its viewpoint. Lady Speaker Tells of C.C.F.

Frank Gray has made a big name for himself here through the notable boxâ€" ing bouts he has promoted and sucâ€" cessfully carried through. The event last night was another feather in his cap as promoter. And there is a still bigger decoration coming to him now. He has arranged for a return match between Bobby Laurence, the Canadian champion, and the talented Timmins fighter, Roy Hamilton. Roy lost last night but he and many of his friends think he can reverse the decision. The return match will give him that chance. It is booked for Timmins on Christmas Eve.

Len Wadsworth‘s name appeared on the first cards issued for the boxing match on Wednesday but later another bout was substituted for the bout in which Len was to appear. â€" This was because satisfactory arrangements could not be made between promoter and fighter in this case. Everybody would have been pleased to see Len in action again, but the bout that replaced his one was certainly a humâ€"dinger and left no cause for complaint. Hon. A. E.
