Forrester. Ask Bill how much lum- ber you need to fix up for a bazaar or a stage and in a jifl'y you have it all in board feet. Again ask him how many members the branch has on its roll and you have an answer similar to thiszâ€"“Well, there are 180 fully-paid up, about 50 who are down a quarter or two. There are some who want a little shaking-up but their dues are good. Then there are those we pay per capita for about 20. But still there are a lot who should be in the branch." Yes. Bill, you are right on the latter sen- tence. The Branch at present stands high in per capita membership of the Legion. Those slightly in arrears al- ways pay when flnances permit. The membership stands at around the 300 with its historic value to future edu- cation, 'civic parades. with splendid decorated floats, massed bands and choirs; all these have been just part of the play.. Now comes the motley. those who wish to defy law and order -â€"just another scene. .But. what is to follow? On August 4th: 5th. 6th and 7th, Toronto will witness a scene un- paralleled in Canadian history.approx- imately 35,000 to 40,000 men, showing in no uncertain manner their loyalty to the flag and the British Empire. Perhaps in the arranging of this Cana- dian Corps re-union the patriotic value was overlooked by those planning the evens. Nevertheless from near and far the thousands come. heeding the call to live for a few days in the atmos- phere which bonded the Empire so close together. What an inspiring sight it will be to watch these men in line of march; the bands of the old batta- lions together again; but instead of than that if one studies the event from ,all angles. At the present time in On- itario a certain group of men are on a [trek to Toronto. supposedly on a hun- ger march. They intend to plac'e cer- tain demands before the Government The new Ontario government has made things easy for them to enter Toronto. having secured a hold on the police commission of that city. The demands as made public are ridiculous. and show in very striking manner to be of communistic origin. The leaders of the "hunger march of well-fed men" are known to be radicals of the bitâ€" terest kind, yet Toronto city officials and citizens have to stand to one side and let them pass. In any event it will only be one scene of the centennial celebration. Several scenes of this great event have already been played: the Empire Day event. the Dominion Day event, the opening of the Old Fort with its historic value to future edu- cation, ’civic parades}. with splendid decorated floats, massed bands and choirs; all these have been just part of the play.. Now comes the motley. )1 More Than a lie-Union max The main topic of conversation of -‘.p;'.' of returned men to-day. is not as some has would think. “When is the beverage bere room going to open!” or similar talk. lots but “Are you going to make the trip new to Toronto?“ Everyone in Timmins soft“ spoken to on the subject states if they Cf i can get away from work or business bran they are certainly going to make the it dl trip. As one put it. “It's a pilgrimage. not not a re-union." It is something more i men than that if one studies the event from whe all angles. At the present time in On- .

Don‘t Forget the Picnic Training has not yet commenced for the softball team. so many of the lads practising for the re-union in Toronto at the present time. Perhaps after witnessing the Corps sports the boys will steal some pointers and come back with the habit and the next thing we will hear is that they have been arrested for stealing bases. The writer has his doubts about being able to get away with much of this as Cochrane is the home of the provincial police in this district and they‘ll be on the watch for this kind of thing from the Tim- mins squad. Never mind! Cochrane' issued the challenge and Timmins will be up to all kinds of tricks to beat them at their own game. One mem- ber has been seen wielding a club these past evenings. but that is as far as he gotâ€"wielding! Will he make a hit on Sunday. August 26th? is the question of the hour. If there are any ladies present. he certainly will! He always does!

For some time past through a :p;-cial source of revenue the branch has maintained its unemployed mem- bers in good standing. Yet there are lots still on the outside. Perhaps the new clubhouse will tell a different sory. Some voiced a strong opinion of the present meeting place and the branch went to heavy evpense and had it decorated in splendid way. This did not have much efl‘ect in increased membership. Will it continue the same when we open up the Legion Memorial Hall on Cedar street south as expected some time this fall? It would be a wise plan now to begin to chase around after those who are not in the Legion as it is understood that only strictly members will be allowed the privileges to be provided in the new building. As Bill would figure it out. “3 men can be seated in a certain area so we need 500 or more men to fill this space." The branch has 300.

ONTARIO Phones 1200â€"1201 .IIU Kirkland’s Grand Stand Credited t0 the (‘ ircus Kirkland Lake is building a grand- stand that will seat 150 people at the ball park at the Lake Shore town. It is expected that the construction will be completed in time to be in use for the game w-morrow (Friday) night between McIntyre and Kirkland Lake in the Temiskaming Baseball League schedule game. This grandstand will no doubt help along the gate receipts at the Kirkland Lake grounds. With the new grandstand there will 'be seats for about 500 peOple at ball games. The credit for the new grandstand is given to the circus recently at Kirk- land Lake. This circus was the same one that visited Timmins on July 14th. The Teck township council charged the circus $500.00 license fee which was promptly paid' by the Al. G. Barnes Circus 'Co. Councillor Norman Mort- solidi;g once handed over the $500.00 to'pay on work to improve'the ball park. ‘ Great Service Unwittingly 3 Rendered Rouyn by Reds of foreign birth. Now the foreign-born employees are slightly over 25 per cent. Before the strike less than 50 per cent. of the company's employees were na- tive-born Canadian. British or Ameri- can. Now 75 per cent. of the employees are in these classifications. French. Canadians totalled only 188 before the strike. and 450 now. The English- speaking Canadians before the strike numbered 416. while now they are 544. Before the strike there were 354 natur- alized Canadians while now there are. only 195. There are also the following notable decreases in unnaturalizea foreignerszâ€"Jugo-Slavs. from 149 to 43; Czecho-Slavs, from 39 to. 17; Ukrainians. Polish, Russians, from 91 to 54; Austrians. from 10 to 4; Serbians from 5 to 2; Finns. from 35 to 9; Swedes, from 15 to 7. In thus causing the changing over to Canadian and other British em- ployees the communists did good ser- vice to Canada. while aiming to cause only" trouble. As a result of the recent senseless strike at the Noranda Mines the in- dustry decided to drop all foreign agi- tators from the payrolls and to give preference hereafter to Canadian and other British born. As a result of this policy the number of foreign-born workers at the Noranda mines is re- duced from 50 to 25 per cent. Can- adians are now greatly in the majority. There is an especially large increase reported in the number of French- Canadians on the company‘s payroll. The Rouyn-Noranda Press last week published figures and comparisons that are of interest. Before the abortive strike engineered by the communists. over 50 per cent. of the workers were Word from Rouyn and Noranda shows that the red element there has unwittingly and without intention actually performed a notable service for the white people of the district.
