The latter picture has not yet been presented to the public, but it is exâ€" pected to further establish the high standing of this child actor. Douglas Scott also has taken a leadâ€" ing part in the presentation of "Micâ€" key McGuire and His Gang," playing "Stinky Davis." The general opinion of Douglas scott and his acting was recently givâ€" en ia The Times, of Los Angeles, Caliâ€" fornia. Lee Shippey, a writer in that paper, in his column, "The Lee Side," has the following to say about Dougâ€" las Scott:â€" "Marvellous Child Actor Has Better Memory Than Grownups" "When I saw "Cavailcade" I was impressed by the acting of little Dougâ€" las Scott, then about 6 years old, but I never realized what a wonderful child he is until the other night when I saw him in a oneâ€"act play by Madeâ€" leine Brandeis, ‘"Morning Shows the Day," in which he took the part of Raphael as a child. Douglas is only 8 years 0o‘d now. Yet in that play he had more speeches and longer speeches Douglas Scott come naturally by his talent and charm, his father and mother both being gifted in dramatic work and meeting in the first place in Toronto through their interest in the theatre. Douglas Seott in this screen appearances wins the hearts of all, not only by his gifts as an actor but also by his personal charm and attraction. Although only eight years old, he has taken many important parts with sucâ€" cess and distinction. He will probably be remembered specially in Timmins as the little King in "Cavalcade." He has shown equal talent and effectiveâ€" ness in other important pictures, such as:â€"‘"‘Take Me Home," the first picâ€" ture in which he appeared and in which he scored a big success; "The Man I Love"; "Rango"; ‘"Madame X"; "Sins of the Fathers"; "Cavalcade‘"; "Adorable"; "Cimarron"; ‘"Baby Folâ€" lies" and "Morning Shows the Day."

Swift, D.S.O., president of that branch of the Legion, were planning a reâ€"union of the veterans of the Boer War who might now ‘be livâ€" ing in the North Land. For this purâ€" pose it was necessary that any veterâ€" ans of the Boer War who happened to be resident at present in the North Land should get in touch with Presiâ€" dent Swift, or with Jerry Smith, if the Boer War reâ€"union were favoured. It certainly has proved to be popular. From Porcupine, Timmins, Krugersâ€" dorf, Cobalt, and many other spots letters reached Jerry Smith from felâ€" lows who fell in enthusiastically with the idea and voiced their support.

To make a complete list the coâ€"operation of all oldâ€"timers is necessary, and it is already very eviâ€" dent that this coâ€"operation will be readily given.

I sure miss them, and if I had a thousand dollars I would give it to see them alive. I often wonder why some newspapers and magazines don‘t say anything about old Tom and others who have done fifty times more than some of those they advertise." eo.

From information given The Advance some years ago. and marked then on the back of the plate, The Advance placed this scene as ‘"Porcupine (Golden City) in the Early Days." Capt. Pete Jeffrey, of the Timmins Fire Dept., knew Camp No. L as he was in the district when the railroad was under construction. He recognizes the picture as beins a moose yard was because was there.

The Government, he reminded his hearers, is paying 90 per cent. of reâ€" lief in Sudbury. "Some will say we spend too much on reliefâ€"others will say we do not spend enough," he saic. "We are damned if we do and we‘ll be damned if we don‘t." Commenting on the Abitibi purâ€" chase, Mr. McCrea added: "Just as Old Ontario needs its Niagara for power, so New Ontario needs its Abiâ€" tibi Canyon." He deplored the failure of Dr. J. R. Hurtubise to check Mitâ€" chell Hepburn when on his recent visit to Sudbury he called on the doctor to bear him out in his charge that the Abitibi purchase was a swindle. "He allowed Mr. Hepburn to stand there uncontradicted and call a swinâ€" dle and a blunder an enterprise that means so much to the mining developâ€" ment _ of Sudbury," Mr. McCrea charged. The Government. heâ€" reminded his n a government of the Liberalâ€"Conâ€" servative party." Since he was elected to represent Sudbury in 1911, he said, the province has spent $6,000,000 in Sudbury disâ€" trict.

"This afternoon when a great crowd gave me the nomination to represent you for the seventh consecutive time it meant more to me than you‘ll ever know, for it said to me, ‘Well done thou good and faithful public servant.‘ "Many stories are being told in this election campaign but so far as Sudâ€" bury is concerned, the stoties have all been on one side," he wattied. "Some of you were probably worrtied, you wanted to hear the other‘ side. The question is being asked: tby ‘certain people, ‘What has McCregsever done for Sudbury?‘ and they raisg,the cry ‘Charlie doesn‘t live here any, more.‘ City Has Grown, When I came here in 190{ Sudbury was a small place of 2,000 or‘2,200 peoâ€" ple," he recalled..
