One widow woman, for exâ€" ample, lost some bills on street and the loss meant serious hardship to her and her family. The ypersons picking up the money in these cases did not seem to have as tender consciences as those mentioned in The Huntingdon Gleaner. It would help a lot if they had. by two strangers who asked him if he could describe the pocketâ€"book he lost seven years before near Palco, Kan., containing $150. After Dietrich desâ€" cribed it to their satisfaction they handed over $150, explaining they had found the money, and, although not in need, had decided to keep it, even though they knew Dietrich had lost it. Their consciences have bothered them so much since they were glad to get rid of the money, they explained." It is a pity that all consciences were not as responsive as the ones noted above. In Timmins, for instance, durâ€" ing the last year or two, there have been several lose money on the streets. In some cases the money was promptâ€" ly turned aver to the police by the perâ€" sons finding it and the owners were accordingly soun in reâ€"possession of their money. In some other cases, however, the person picking un whe money siimply kept it. There were one or two cass where the people losing Last week there was the following item in the "Chronicled News Bits" in the Huntingdon Gleaner:â€"*"While deâ€" livering mail over his route recently, A. L. Dietrich, Ellis, Kan., was stopped Questioned regarding the bond exâ€" change phase of the Government‘s purâ€" chase of the Abitibi project, Mr. Cooke held that the "cheap money" advantâ€" ages realized therefrom had never been fully appreciated by the general public. It was an indisputable fact, he claimed, that the exchange of three and oneâ€" half per cent. Hydro bonds for the Onâ€" tario Power Service Corporation‘s five and oneâ€"half per cent. bonds, payable in Canadian instead of American funds, had meant a saving in interest overhead on the Abitibi of $470,000 a year, plus any premium on United States funds. CONsSCIENCES OF sSOME ARE NOT SO TENDER, HOWEVER Power which the Youngâ€"Davidson Company will take will be paid for at the standard schedule of rates at which Hydro is prepared to supply power to all mining companies, and will be laid down for initial delivery on May 1. 1934. It will come down to Kirkland Lake from the Canyon via Iroquois Falls and the transmission line which Hydro must build to fulfil its contract with the Canada Northern Power Corâ€" poration. From Kirkland Lake a branch tranmission line of some 26 miles will have to be built into the Matachewan area. Work will be startâ€" ed on both feeders at once, and upâ€" wards of 500 men will be employed throughout the winter. At present, Mr. Cooke admitted, the Commission is negotiating for the sale of energy to other consumers in the northern mining areas, having prospecâ€" tive loads which in the aggregate may reach 5,000 horsepower. The interest being shown by mining properties in application for power with which to develop new holdings was gratifying, he said. This sale is the second in Abitibi current that Hydro has negotiated since the Ontario Government acquired the Canyon project. It follows closely the contract made with the Canada Northern Power Corporation, and is further indication, Mr. Cooke believed, that the Commission‘s prediction will be realized that "within a very short time" the Abitibi development will be able to meet its carrying charges out of acutal earnings. Under the agreement executed, Hydro will supply current to an initial amount of 700 horsepower, with proâ€" visions for increasing the demand to a maximum of 22,000 horsepower to take care of all the company‘s requirements in connection with the Powell township properties and others which may be established in the vicinity. "It is expected," said Mr. Cooke, "that the load required by the comâ€" pany to carry on mining and milling operations will exceed 1,500 horsepower very soon after the mill is put in operâ€" ation." SBale of Abitibi Canyon power to Holâ€" linger Consolidated Gold Mines, Limitâ€" ed, for the operation of their Youngâ€" Davidson properties in Powell township in the new Matachewan gold belt, has been completed by the Ontario Hydro, as trustees for the Government in the Canyon‘s operation; was ratified Wedâ€" nesday of last week by orderâ€"inâ€"council of the Henry Government; was anâ€" nounced by Hon. J. R. Cooke, Power Commission chairman.

Mr. and Mrs. Maillette, their infant daughter about a year old, and their little son aged two years and a half, were driving home when the car struck a high culâ€" vert. The impact resulted in the breaking of one of the rear springs and for a moment Mr. Maillastte lost conâ€" trol of the car. The car went into the ditch, overturning, and pinning down the occupants for fully ten minutes. When Mr. Maillette freed himself with the aid of some passing motorists, it was found that the baby girl was dead. Mrs. Maillette was seriously injured about the head, for a time losing her sight, but recovering later. Mr. Mailâ€" lette was painfully hurt about the legs. The little boy escaped any injury whatever. BABY DIES IN ACCIDENT NEAR MACAMIC RECENTLY Reports are current that the Jonesâ€" Porter property in Deloro township may be reâ€"opened at an early date. This is the property in which John _ Jones, wellâ€"known prospector and minâ€" ing man, held chief interest. There has been much work done on the proâ€" perty with results reported as specially promising. Mr. Jones bought the Croesus mill and plant and brought it from that property near Matheson to the Jonesâ€"Porter mine in Deloro. There is accordingly a very complete mining equipment on the property. Work was carried on at the property until a couple of years ago when conâ€" ditions made it necessary to disconâ€" tinue. These conditions were in no way concerned with the probable value of the property. It is understood that negotiations are now under way for financing that will assure the reâ€"openâ€" ing of the property and carrying it thrcough to the producing stage. It is said that a new company is being formâ€" ed with this purpose in view and that it is likely that a pleasing announce-f ment will be made shortly in reference to the reâ€"opening of the mine. Jonesâ€"Porter Mine may be. Reâ€"opened at Early Date The Toronto Mail and Empire last Thursday:â€""Not long ago Hon. J. R. Cooke, Chairman of the Hydroâ€"Electric Power Commission, announced on beâ€" half of the Ontario Government the sale of a considerable block of power from the Abitibi Canyon development to the Canada Northern Power Corpor-‘ The following is an editorial from! , ation. That announcement was followâ€" ed up last night by a further statement from Mr. Cooke that a second block of power has. been disposed of to the Holâ€" linger Consolidated Gold Mines, Limitâ€" ed, for use in the Matachewan gold fields. Other contracts of the same character are in the course of negotiaâ€" | tion. The whole Northern Ontario gold area is, indeed, looking to the Abitibi plant for cheap electric energy, and the prospect is that the Canyon developâ€" ment will be selfâ€"supporting by next summer. The Canyon development was originated with the speciiic object of furnishing Northern Ontario with low-, priced power for the stimulation, proâ€" motion and aggrandizement of the gold mining industry which has gone far to carry this province and Dominion sucâ€" cessfully through a fourâ€"year depresâ€" sion, from which we are now beginning to recover."

Contributions to the Special Mainâ€" tenance Fund, established to provide the interest on the lost Rupert‘s Land endowments and so ensure continuance of Anglican work in the affected westâ€" ern dioceses, have reached over $90,â€" 000. This amount represents voluntary subscriptions by bishops and clergy of the church and a 7 p.c. levy on misâ€" sicnary salaries and was necessary to provide stipends and pensions for three years or until income is assured from the invested proceeds of the Rest,ox ation Fund appeal. Reports that the Restoration Fund had been overâ€"subscribed were inaccurâ€" ate, Canon Vernon stated in describâ€" ing what had been accomplished. Subscriptions to the amount of about $300,000 were still required if the church was to go "over the top." In campaigns of this nature there was the inevitable shrinkage through subscribâ€" ers finding it impossible to implement pledges made in good faith and it was likely that an even greater sum would be needed. Rev. Canon C. W. Vernon, acting director of the campaign in the absenc> of Canon S. Gould, in appealing to church people throughout the Dominâ€" ion for renewed effort stresses the vital necessity of pressing forward the work in order that the total objective may be secured "so that the $100,000 to strengthen the financial position of the Pension Board and the $200,000 to be applied to the relief of diocesan finâ€" ancial problems and needs may be asâ€" sured." With approxmiately $800,000 subâ€" scribed out of a total objective of $1,â€" 076,250 the Church of England in Canâ€" ada is starting the second year of its threeâ€"year campaign to replace the missing trust funds of the ecclesiastical province of Rupert‘s Land, to strengthâ€" en the Pension Fund of the church and to provide a sustentation fund for other dioceses in need of financial assistance. second Year of Campaighn Starts with Renewed Effort to Reach Objective.

J. Shepherd, of Timmins. Timmins friends of the bride will exâ€" tend all good wishes to the young couple, The Sudbury Star‘s report of the wedding is as follows:â€" "An interesting wedding was quietly of Branch 88, Ladies‘ Auxiliary, unemâ€" ployed veterans, deceased exâ€"service men, or children from the Children‘s Shelter. The names of all such childâ€" ren, together with their ages, should be sent in to Comrade Jas. Cowan, Rox 566, or to Comrade W. A. Devine, Box 1428, on or ‘before Dec. 18th. The adâ€" vice is given to all concerned to get the names and particulars in as soon as possible so that arrangements may be made for the Christmas tree and the presents. In any event all names of children, with their ages, should be sent in to either of the two named above on or before Dec. 18th. Do it now! Wedding of Timmins Young Lady at Sudbury, Nov. 10 The Timmins Branch of the Canaâ€" dian Legion this week is asking for the names of all children eligible for a place on the annual Christmas tree. It is explained that the children eligible to attend the annual Christmas tree of the Legion are as follows:â€"children under thirteen years of age of members from the old days when earlier maps were issued of the country. Goodfish Lake, for instance, appears on old maps of 1912 as "Goldfish" Lake, and there are several other examples of this. The sad task of searching Victoria Lake for the body of a wellâ€"known Kirkland Lake youth in recent weeks before the freezeâ€"up brings attention again to the fact that McTavish Lake, a body of water adjoining Victoria Lake appears on old maps simply as "Tavish" Lake, without the "Mc." Whether this is simâ€" ply a mistake in the spelling or an actual change is not known:; and it is also learned that Verna Lake, up above Beaver House, is identified on the old maps of the district as "Vernal" Lake." Names of Children Asked for Legion Christmas Tree "In the past comment has occasionally been made in ithis column over the changes in the place, names of lakes and rivers in the Kirkland Lake area In the column "The Roving Reportâ€" er," The Northern News last week says: sSOMETHING IN ABOUT NAMES KIRKLAND DISTRICT The struggle of the themselves of the red .c «â€"=Watched with interest. likely to find in the party again. _‘ goin those who prefer to us pelled to turn to coal The editor of the Bra long ago said the syster was "debauching Cana just about come to the he was correct in his j people would almost ra accept public relief, a should be given every and opportunity to reo refu ting The evils of direct relief have been mentioned on many occasions by The New Liskeard Speaker. This paper last week had a reference to the matter, the reference being prompted by an inciâ€" dent coming to the attention of The Speaker, This incident was in connecâ€" tion with the wood supply. The Speakâ€" er describes the incident and draws the moral from it in the following little editorial article:â€" ‘"Said a local wood dealer to a memâ€" ber of The Speaker staff: "It is almost impossible for us to get wood. Where we could get several car loads last winâ€" ter, this year we can get none." Folâ€" lowing up this line of conversation, we were told that in a certain locality, from which a considerable amount of wood has been coming every year, hardâ€" ly any can be secured this year, and the reason for this is said to be the fact that the men refuse to cut wood so long as they can draw relief from the Government and receive help from those who maybe have been more genâ€" erous than wise in their desire to asâ€" sist those in trouble. In the meantime those who prefer to use wood are comâ€" pelled to turn to coal as winter fuel. The editor of the Bracebridge Gazette On innumerable occasions during the past two or three years The Advance has taken the opportunity to point out some of the evils of direct relief. These _evils are evident in many ways and unâ€" der many forms. The injury to the country through the expenditure of money for which no permanent advantâ€" age is secured may seem to be the chief evil, but as a matter of fact it would seem to be the truth that the worst feature of direct relief lies in another directionâ€"in the injury done to those who are forced to accept direct relief and those others who actually wish to be kept by the same direct relief. The majority of Canadians and other Briâ€" tish people feel that they would prefer almost anything to direct relief. They avoid it as long as they may, but if there is nothing else available, the time comes when there is nothing to be done to prevent actual starvation than to accept direct relief. At first this is done with the deepest reluctance. It is a last resort and a very unpleasant one. But with direct relief once acâ€" cepted there is, also, a tendency to graâ€" dually come to the conclusion that it is some sort of bounty that the country owes to its people, and so that it is a right and not a privilegee. From this sort of feeling there grows all sorts of plans to make direct relief substitute for hard work and honest effort to supâ€" port one‘s self. The following were the officers elect: ed for the ensuing year:â€" Honorary presidentâ€"Capt. D. Jones Presidentâ€"J. G. Harris. Viceâ€"presidentâ€"E. C. Stephens. Secretaryâ€"treasurerâ€"A. Odgers.
