A musical ensemble under the direction of Michael Rose will be in attendance and a newlyâ€"formed ladies‘ trio, as well as a mixed quarâ€" tette, will entertain, while many popuâ€" lar old favourites and new artists in Timmins will also be heard. The choir itself will be heard in speâ€" cial arrangements of outstanding vocal merit, and all interested in the work of the Timmins United Church Choir are asked to lend their fullest support to this worthâ€"while venture. Tickets will soon be for sale by memâ€" bers of the choir and by several of the leading stores in Timmins. Under the auspices of the choir of the Timmins United Church a concert of outstanding interest and scope will be heard in the church itself on Friday evening, Nov. 2nd, commencing at 8 p.m. This will be the first time in the history of the United Church choir that a concert of this type has been attempted. _ At the present time a number of new and novel features are being rehearsed for this presentation. Writing from Jackson, Mich., A. E.] Miner, formerly of the North Land, reâ€"| cently wrote as follows:â€""When I read| of the progress being made in Northern ; Ontario it stimulated the desire in me‘ to return to the land where life is worth the living. I shall never cease to love the great Land, and am happy to know of its present prosperity through the increased production of gold, in this, a time, in other lands of considerable distress."

Last week reference was made to the increase in the popuâ€" lation of Sudbury, the present year‘s assessment figures showing that the population has again reached the 20,â€" 000 mark after being below that figure for several years Word from North Bay shows recovery along the same line. At North Bay the assessment figures show that the population is again over 16,000 after being below that figure for several years. Indeed, the population of North Bay is larger toâ€"day than it was before the depresâ€" sion. It should be remembered that in the case of all tl;xe towns referred to population figures Ps given by the asâ€" sessment are always much below the actual number of people in the town or city, a large number of transients not being mcluded@eoause they do not come under theâ€"assessment. _ It is a pleasing sign ofâ€"recovery and progress when some of: thesetransients are abâ€" sorbed and becomecitizens of the municipality and added â€"to the assessâ€" ment roll. "And can you tie this one for woâ€" man‘s wiles! A chivalrous commercial traveller encountered an attractive girl on â€"the road near Powassan in a half fainting conditicn, evidently from beâ€" ing struck by a hitâ€"andâ€"run driver. He assisted her into his car, and set off for North Bay. The girl showed a surprisâ€" ingly speedy revival, and by the time they reached a popular resort just outâ€" side the gateway city, she had so far recovered that the chivalrous commerâ€" clal traveller invited her to stop for a few dances. During the evening she excused herself from him. When she failed to return in reasonable time, he instituted a searchâ€"to discover that his car was missing also. It was reâ€" covered the next day near Huntsville. Imagine being able to pull a trick like that on a commercial traveller!" There was a time when it was popularly believed that some girls needâ€" ed to be warned against some commerâ€" cial travellers Now it would appear that some commercial travellers need to be warned against some girls. Anyâ€" way, this story is told in The Sudbury Star last week (believe it or not!). The Star says:â€" Young Lady Put One Over on Commercial Traveller Mill Office Mattagami Heights Spanish Monument Buenos Aires, Argentina Phone 709 Fire Chief Borland ; Honored in District â€" Mr. Mcinnis goes on to say that he believes that the government made a grave mistake in 1924 when it took up the fying service itself. He said that fiying is so scientific a field and so enâ€" tirely different from any other branch of work the government is called upon to handle that it is necessary for the departments bound up in it to take the advice and guidance of the men in the employ of the service, Secretaryâ€"treasurerâ€"A.

T The annual report of the association as presented at the convention showed that the executive had written the Timâ€" mins town council protesting the, disâ€" missal with reason of Fire Chief Borâ€" land who for eighteen years had given such good service to the town ‘of Timâ€" mins and the district in the matter of fire protection and fire prevention.

He explained that in 1935 Cochâ€" rane was to hold a threeâ€"day celebraâ€" tion of the twentyâ€"fifth birthday anniâ€" versary of the town and one of the days I would be July Iist. If the two associaâ€" tions held their tournaments at Coch-. rane on July lst, it would ‘be a good thing for Cochrane and the associaâ€" tions alike, he suggested. Officers elected for 1935 at the secâ€" ond annual convention of the District of Cochrane Firemen‘s Association held at Iroquois Falls on Sept. 27th were as follows :â€" Advise Government to Drop Ontario Air Service Fire Chief Maxwell Smith, of South Porcupine, who was the guest of honâ€" our at the convention as the delegate from the Temiskaming association, was asked by Fire Chief Wilkes, who was presiding at the convention, to maks the formal presentation to Fire Chief Borland of the Past President‘s Jewel. Presidentâ€"Chief E. Caswell, Coch rane. Viceâ€"presidentâ€"Chas. Jucksch, Schu macher. At the recent annual convention of the District of Cochrane Firemen‘s Asâ€" sociation a special feature of the ocâ€" casion was the presentation to Fivre Chief Alex Borland, of Timmins, of the Past President‘s Jewel of the Associaâ€" ticn. Fire Chief Borland was the first president of the association and is held in the highest regard by all the fire brigades Of the North being looked upon as the most able and effective fire chief in the North. At the convention in Iroquois Falls, there were delegates present from Timâ€" mins, Schumacher, Smooth Rock Falls, Cochrane, Ansonville, Montrock and Iroquois Falls. Also Fire Chief Maxâ€" well Smith, of South Porcupine, deleâ€" gated to represent the Temiskaming Firemen‘s Association, was among those attending. Chief T. H. Wilkes, of Iroâ€" quois Falls, presided at the convention, The visiting: delegates were given ‘offhâ€" cial welcome by Mayor Geo. L. Camerâ€" on, of Troquois Falls, and by T. E. Silver mill managerâ€"of the Abitibi Power Paper Co., at Iroqduois Palls. Last week John M. Godfrey, K.C., was appointed Ontario‘s Securties Commissioner in succession to Col. Geo. A. Drew who was formally reâ€" moved from the office. Col. Drew says that he was asked for his resignation because he refused to give a salesman‘s license to an exâ€"convict with about a dozen convictions. Hon. Mr. Roebuck‘s denial of this reason does not seem a| very convicing one. The Ontario Becurities Commissioner was appointed some years ago by the Ontario Governâ€" ment with the idea of protecting the public against fraud and sharp pracâ€" tice in regard to the sale of stocks, bonds, etec. Those who have studied the question seem to agree that Cnl. Drew was able to do much along this| line. The new commissioner is a good man, but the difficulty is that he will be geatly hampered in the work by the fact that the present government apâ€" pears to consider party affiliations more important than adherence to the law. This impression on the public will leave , the new commissioner fiable to be charged with undue favouritism every time a question comes before him for | wuecision. It is aways a mistake in | positions of this kind when the Govâ€" ernment allows the idea to go abroad that party affiliations may overâ€" ude public interests. * | Presented Recently with Past Presid ent‘s Jewel by the Cochrane Fireâ€" men‘s Association.
