This is in accordance with the plans of the band to hold a concert every two weeks during the winter months so that the public may have opportunity during the winter to enjoy the music by the band just as they do in the summer at the open air concerts.

The proâ€" gramme as usual will include num.ber solo numbers by individual bandsmen. The band has again reached a pleasing stage of efficiency. and lovers of band music are sure to be pleased with the band selections on Sunday evening.

When it was known that Mr. Gallagher was elected reeve, the fire brigade was brought . out and the siren ‘blown Nothing would do but that the reeveâ€" elect for 1934 should get up and make speech upon it. And he made a very modest andâ€"fairâ€"minded speech to the crowd assembled. He was very glad to have been elected, but his nomination was not of his seeking, he said. He was approached by ratepayers of all classes, of low, and of exalted station to stand for election, and he was not flattered that he had won. He would do his duty to all, and try, to the best of his ability to fulfill the office in a way that â€" would reflect credit to the people who had elected him. He reâ€" ceived a great ovation from the crowd. Mr. A. H.

As in the case of the other areas where strikes have been declared among the workers in the bush, there is on the one hand a tendency to claim that the bush pay and conditions are deâ€" plorable and that this state of affairs can ~not be borne.. Against this view point is the contention of the manager of the pulp and paper company that all the trouble is due to communist agitaâ€" tion ta.king advantage of the dxsposit,iong ‘of men, many of whom have been out of work for some time and who are consequently inclined to take a pessiâ€" mistic view of affairs. The Advance has held from the beginning of the troubles in the kush camps that the government should hold an investigaâ€" tion and determine whether or not fair pay and fair conditions obtain and if they do not to use such influence and power as may be necessary to right conâ€" ditions and give the men employed in the bush work a fair chance. It looks as if the province of Quebec might folâ€" low a course along this line. â€" In Quebec province, it is understood that inforâ€" mation has been gathered in regard to the conditions at the camps, the rates of pay obtaining and all other matters of importance in the case. If Quebec follows such a plan it would be well worth while for Ontario to follow suit. Noranda and are now gathered in the twin towns. They have secured buildâ€" ings to house the men out on strike and have also been gathering money in other towns to provide food for the strikers. As noted elsewhere in this isâ€" sue a crowd of the strikers gathered the other day in front of the paper company‘s office and presented their "demands," but were told by the comâ€" pany‘s manager that the company would not allow dictation by any group of agitators. No sort of disorder has occurred so far, and the men in charge of the workers have been openly urging upon all the necessity for the best of order if the men are to retain public sympathy. _ On the other hand, the paper company s manager claims that the trouble is due to agitators and that the company will not confer with the red or communist element. A despatch from Noranda on Tuesday of this week quotes Premier Taschereau as stating that the Quebec Government will not tolerate "such agitation and disorders as are now taking place among lumber workers in the Rouyn and Noranda area " To this declaraâ€" tion Premier Tascheresu adds the inâ€" formation that a squadron of Royal Canadian Mounted Police has been sent to the Noranda district to maintain the peace there or in any other section where disorders may occur. If proâ€" fessional agitators are found to be resâ€" ponsible for the disorders that have already occurred, the premier of Quebec stated that measures will be taken to put a stop to their activities. This year in particular paicels slould be mailed early. One special reason for this is that unless they are mailed in time they will be delayed in delivery and perhaps not be given out until after Christmas. For instance, parcels not â€"arriving at Timmins.by Friday night will not be ‘obtainable in the orâ€" dlinary way until Tuesday, the day after Christmas. The reason for this is that parcels coming here on Saturday‘s mail will run up against the fact that the next day is Sunday, when all offices are closed, and Monday being Christâ€" mss Day and a general holiday the post office will not be open for the deâ€" livery of parcels. Postmaster King at present is seeking for the best way to help the public in the matter <of the delivery of parcels during the weekâ€" end and he may be able either by extra hours at the weekâ€"end or other plan to help out. The best way for the public however, will be to help themselves by mailing parcels early. If this is done, everybody may be happy for Christâ€" mas. It may be noted that what apâ€" plies to Timmins affects all post offices. Accordingly all should this year, parâ€" ticularly, heed the call to mall parcels Jack Moisiey, tenâ€"yearâ€"old son Of Mr. and Mis. P. T.

High School board. In his usual hapâ€" py vein Mr. Scott mingled Scottish humour and earnest and helpful adâ€" vice ‘to the pupils about to enter on their life in the world at large. . As it was St. Andrew‘s Night, Mr. Scott made apt and pleasing ryreference to that anniversary. A dance by the pupils of one of the physical training classes was so popuâ€" lar and so insistently encored that anâ€" other similar dance was presented. Both dances were given in costume and were both very pleasing items on a proâ€" gramme of special excellence and inâ€" A piano solo by Herman Walter was a talented number that pleased all. W. 5. Jamieson, chairman of the Vocational Committee of the High School board, presented the Vocational School graduation diplomas, prefacing the presentation with a brief but very effective and helpful address.

All present found this address of outstanding inâ€" terest and inspiration. In opening his address Mr. Dunlop captured the closâ€" est attention of his hearers by his huâ€" morous references to the evening, St. Andrew‘s Night. Scottish stories and humour were crowded close together. One of them was that the way to make a Scotsman happy in his old age is to tell him ifunny stories when he is young. Turning to serious vein, Mr. Dunlop told of ‘his day spent in visiting the school. He complimented the people of Timmins on the fine buildings, the equipment, the teachers, and above all on the excellent school spirit that preâ€" vailed in the High School. The cost per pupil in Timmins was low, but Mr. Dunlop emphasized the fact that mconey spent for education was never wasted when the good it did for citizenâ€" ship was remembered. "Are you getâ€" ting the worth of your money spent for schools?" was a question Mr. Dunâ€" lop answered very effectively. He reâ€" ferred to the need for pupils to have an. ambition and aim to reach it. Some boys and girls were too anxkious to leave school, he said, and he showed that education was a very easy thing to carry. The need for pupilis having a definite objective was emphasized by Mr. Dunlop and he touched on the nlans made to heln them choose the h:e of their life work in the wisest way. Mr, Dunlop gave many interestâ€" ing hicidents from his own erperiences to ilustrate the many points of his aidress, wh‘is his wit and humour carâ€" ried ‘his argumants to the sympathy of his audience. is advice to the stuâ€" dents was particulsrly valuable because he had first secured their full attention and goodwill. He ursred them not to set too much store on the money in the work they might up. The highest ambition was that that of true service.
