The editcorial in The Advance ten years ago dealt with the danger, that faced the town from the gathering hers of unemployed. The Advance noted that the surplus of workers here was indicated by the fact that call by the Employment Bureau for 20 men resulted in a rush of 150 seeking the positions. . The Advance pointed out that unwise and useless boosting about the progress and prosperity of Timâ€" mins in cutside newspapers was to some extent responsible for the influx of labour. The Advance urged that the facts be told in the case. The facts included the idea that Timmins was progressing all right, but also the truth that Timmins already had too many men for all the employment available. To bring in further workers was simply to burden the town without helping the workers. a visit being s "t # L Lad wow «Bm The hearing of a Toronto radio proâ€" gramme at Timmins ten years ago was thought interesting _ and unusual enough to warrant mention in The Advance. The Advance noted at the time that it was only very rarely that Toronto stations could be heard in the North, though others much farther away might be heard quite plainly. Ten years ago the skating rink was not available for boxing bouts. Ten years ago there was a proposal made to move the Porcupine Fair to Bcuth Porcupine. A counter proposal to erect buildings at Golden City was carried and for some years the Porâ€" cupine FPair was a successful event. There was no fair last year, and it is understood no plans have been made to hold the fair this year. Ten years ago, the â€"A.S.D.â€"Club had a cottage at Golden City, the weekâ€" ends of this social club being very pleasantly spent as a consequence.

Single fare from Haileybury to Rouyn, howâ€" ever, was $60.00, which made it close to prohibitive. The service was inaugurâ€" ated by the Laurenpntide Air Service and every effort was made to give the best service at the least price possible but the costs did hamper the popularity of ago. As a result of this match Dome and Kirkland had to play off for the Dickson Cup. Recently reference was made in The Advance to the improvement of the road near New Liskeard at the place called "Calamity Gulch." The Advance ten years ago referred to a mishap at "Calamity Gulch," near New Liskeard, so the name is at least ten years old. While the sewer construction work was in progress ten years ago at the corner of Pine street and Fourth aveâ€" nue, there was a near tragedy when one of the workmen stepped on the ground near the edge of the french. The sand gave way underneath and he not only fell into the trench but he received a great fright when he found himself half buried. He made the welkin ring with his cries when he found he was imprisoned. The inciâ€" dent and the man‘s shouts attracted a crowd of considerable size and when the speedy shovel gang dug him out in a minute or two the crowd. cheered lustily.
