At 11 am. on Sunday Major Hillier and Mrs. Hillier led the service. the Major taking for his subject. “Fellow; ship." He pointed out that human and divine fellowship were essentials to be maintained in Salvation Army ranks. if they were to build a strong spiritual life and a successful corps. He added that the Salvation Army has been noted for the fellowship among its members throughout the world. Wilbur Chap- man. who travelled in many parts of the world on evangelistic campaigns, was quoted as saying:-â€"-”One of the notable things about the Salvation Army, was that spirit of comradeship that exists in its ranks among all the people of the countries in which its flag flies." Fellowship is the keystone of the arch .of Salvation Army Corps. said Major Hillier. A large congregation was present at the evening service on Sunday. A special feature of the service was: eighteen little girls representing the age of the Corps. dressed in white and wearing yellow, red and blue sashes. sat in a semi-circle on the platform. and sang two appropriate selections. On Sunday and Monday of this week there was special observance of the eithteenth anniversary of the foundâ€" ing of the Timmins Corps of the Sal- vation Army. Special services were held on Sunday in the handsome new 8. A. citadel on Birth street south, with special reference to the anniversary. Lieutenant A. Church. of London, Ont. was the guest speaker. and gave a very inspiring address on the subject: “The Call of the Heavenly Guest."

There have been l three recent escapes from Burwash. the three in question to be the only one gtaking advantage of the opportunity 'afforded by the bush fires in the dis- trict. Of the three. only one remains i at large. and it is not certain that even this one (John Gray) is alive. His :companion when he escaped has been found dead. At first it was thought this man had perished seeking escape gfrom one of the bush fires. Later evi- dence. however, suggested that the [companion ha (1 been murdered. Whether Gray escaped the flames or ; not is open to question. The third man. Clarence White. of Goderich. has been ‘found at Parry ’Sound where he was arrested on a charge of the theft of a [motor car. He has been brought to Sudbury to face a charge of escaping from custody. Meal Tickets 21 meals $5.00 There have been sixty bt'sh 'fires in the Sudbury area. one of the most menacing of these being in the vicinity of Burwash prison farm. When appeal was made to the Forestry Branch to fight the bush fire menacing Burwash the officials said that with all the other demands they were iinable ‘ to Send extra men or equipment. The prisoners at the Burwash farm. however. have been put on their honour not to escape, and they have been putting up an ex- cellent fight against the progress of the flames. They are said to be helping the guards in the battle against the bush fires and doing effective service in this line. Superintendent Gourley of the Burwash farm is quoted as giving high praise to the prisoners for the way they are playing the game. There are sev- eral provincial police standing by at Burwash in case their help is needed in any way.

The friends of Marion Jordan will be sorry to know that she is still in. hospital after the accident she had with her bicycle nearly two weeks ago. Her knre was very badly cut, but we are glad to know she is getting along very nicely. It seems too bad that Marion is spending so much vacation time in hospital! Mrs. Battrick and son. Leonard, are leaving on Friday for Sundridge for two weeks' holiday. Reggie Butler is a patient in the hos- pital for a minor operation. Mr. Fred Kenning is recovering his health gradually in Father Therriault's cottage at Nighthawk Lake. Mr. and Mrs. Galbraith and Angus are leaving on Friday for two weeks' holiday in Toronto. Mrs. W. C. Sharp. of New Liskeard. who was for many years a resident of Connaught Hill, was in town on Tues- day visiting old friends. She was ac- companied by her children, Dorothy and Frank. We regret that news of the illness of her father is causing Mrs. W. H. Johns to leave for her home in Port- land. Oregon. on Thursday. Mrs. Johns did not intend leaving for home so soon. but was expecting to go in Oc- tober. The WA. tea which was planned for the home of Mrs. Johns at the Dome cn Thursday will still take place as scheduled, the other ladies of this organization taking charge. We regret that the health of Mr. Ed. Pullin necessitated his removal to Christie Street hospital on Wednes- day. His leg. which is in bad shape as the result of war wounds, needs ex- pert attention. as it has given him much pain and trouble. Mr. Ed. Croteau left on Tuesday for Rouyn on business. The shed and office for the town engineer are rapidly being built on the lot between the public iibrary and the old township sheds. Mr. Winton Adamson. of New Lis- keard. is in town. preparing to take over the management or the Northern Ontario Light and Power Company’s store on Bruce avenue. Mr. Herb Blood. who has been in charge since the in- auguration of the store, left on Wed- nesday for Cobalt, to which place he has been transferred as manager of the store in that town. We understand that the family will not be leaving un- til a week or so. We are sorry to lose Mr. Blood who has been in South Por- cupine for 25 years and is one of its pioneers. and who has gained the goodwill and kindly feeling of all here â€"-but South Porcupine's loss will be Cobalt's gain. Mrs. Frood. of Connaught, was a visitor in town on Tuesday, coming up and returning by bus. We offer our sympathy this week to Mr. Don Eames. of the Dome. who re- ceived word on Monday of the death of his only brother in Gananoque. Mr. Eames left on the noon train on Mon- day for the funeral which took place on Wednesday in Gananoque. The de- ceased young man. Duncan Eames, was only two years older than Don and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Eames. Two sisters also are left to mourn his loss. His death was not unexpected, as he had been ill for some time. The High School grounds are being ploughed up preparatory to putting them into proper shape for playing fields for the pupils. Mr. Purdy. who will be leaving South Porcupine at the end of the month to take charge of a. school near Fort William. has sold his house on Bloor avenue to Mrs. F. C. Evans. and his other property in the Helmer town- site has been bought by a Mr. Ander- son who will occupy it shortly.

In an editorial article this week The Sudbury Star touches on the reports that Premier Hepburn plans to reduce the number of seats in the Legislature. Ex-Premier Henry before the last pro- vincial election reduced the number from 112 to 90. It is said that Pre- mier Hepburn plans to make the num- ber 75. This will be done by reducing city representation and combining some of the smaller ridings. In dis- cussing the pr0posed changes. The Sudbury Star says:â€" “Some of the Northern Ontario con- stituencies have registered unpreced- ented growth in papulation during the last few years. and will continue to do so. Ridings are too great both in area andin population in some cases to en- sure the maximum of efficiency in pub- lic service. and in any redistribution of seats this is a factor that will have to be considered. It is all very well for Toronto and other large urban centres to talk about representation by popula- tion, but there are other important features to be considered. Where pop- ulation is confined to a comparatively small territory. as in Toronto. it is not so difficult for a representative to at- tend to the requirements of his con- stituents. He is forced to do little tra- velling and he is close to the seat of administration. In the northland the wide boundaries. the ever-expanding settlement and development of miner- al areas means steady and permanent growth in population and consequently enlargement of the problems and in- separable from these things. Several of the 11 Northern Ontario ridings are greater both in area and in population than most of those in older Ontario. The time is not far distant. if it has not already arrived. when some thought must be given to such constituencies as Sudbury. Nipissing. and Algoma-Manitoulin. with the ob- Jective of realigning the boundaries, to provide an additional one or twb mem- bers. These could- easily and economi- cally be accomplished with the reducâ€" tion of representation in centres of denser population. An MLA. can more efficiently represent 50.000 people confined to a small compass than he can 20.000 spread over a wide territory. In any event, it seems advisable to cut down the membership in the house. and it is inevitable that Toronto should do with less representation." Suggests More Members for North in Legislature Later when in juvenile court the ac- tual theft was acknowledged by the younger boy. testimony was given that the lad was not a. very good boy and had been in trouble before. The father appeared for the lad and said that the expulsion from school was on account of bein caught smokingâ€"for no great- er offence. A case that took up a great deal of time came up for judgment and was finally dismissed, but not before his worship openly expressed his opinion that the witnesses had been. “fixed." Defendant had since bought a li- cense so the case was adjourned until called upon. The case involved the selling of beer on a Sunday in a licensed hotel, the passing of a $5 bill in payment and the provincial police and a member of the Mounted police who both gave evi- dence. The protection of the court was asked for two witnesses. The protec- tion was given so long as they told the truth, the bench concurred. An echo of last week's car theft case washeard again. A young chap was charged (along with another juvenile delinquent) with taking this same car from a repair shop. having a good time with it, and running it into a ditch, where it. was left to be dismantled by other thieves. The boy put the blame on a younger lad, said he had been coaxed to go by the offer of candy, etc., and that this younger boy had said he had his father’s car. although he afterwards acknowledged that he knew the car belonged to H. Sky. A case of a Hoyle man being caught with an unlicensed trailer was brought before his worship. Testimony was giv- en that the trailer was considered part of the truck with which it was used. The magistrate said he would take up the case again in Timmins in th's‘. afternoon. specified in the letters to the parent-8. and is simple in nature. Moreover the expense ior each girl is very moder- ate, making it well within the reach of some of the more straitened purses. Therefore the leaders are most anxious that most of the Guidss may go. The benefit to the girls will not only be! that of health. but they also benefit by wholesome discipline. the pursuit of Guidecraft, and the association with each other.
