Canadaâ€"$2.090 Per \ Timmins, Ont., Mond:? The word "streamlined" is heard thesedays nearly as often as the name of Mrs. Simpson. It‘s an old car that isn‘t streamlined. ~The locomoâ€" tives boast about being streamlined. Streamilined fountain â€"« pens, streamlined railway â€" coaches, streamlined bottles, streamlined buildings, streamâ€" lined airships. and nearly everything else brandea as streamlined. The other day there was an adâ€" vertisement of a streamlined bun. For a long streamlined pills have been the fashion.... kven the ladies‘ figures are supposed to be taking on the streamlined fashion. An Ottawa firm had the presumption recently to advertise streamlined, dresses. There did not seem to be enough to the dress for any other lining than stream lming,r But when the newspapers start to talk about streamâ€" lined type and streamlining the front page, it‘s just about too much. This streamlining business all started with the idea of minimizing resistance to the wind. If that‘s what streamlining really does the less the newspapers have to do with it the betâ€" ter. If there is anything more than another that the newspapers need the power to resist, it‘s wn\d Let the front page have every modern dev,ce)finp contrivanceâ€"but streamlining. The greater resisâ€" tance offered by the newspaper to the wind and to the breezes that blow from all quarters, the betâ€" ter service the public will receive and the, more secure the newspaper business in public favour» â€" e m lt l l t t :t lt lt lt ult lt ut hPA lt «tm calhâ€"P uh n P t W" PP P PP P Much of advantage may fairly be expected from the conference held in Timmins on Saturday night between representatives of the municipalities of the three gold mining comimunitieés of Timmins, Tisdale and Teck. An associationâ€"was formed to include the three municipalities named and also any other Northern municipalities with similar | problems and needs. Resolutions. were adopted in reference to several important questions and these will be duly presented to the governments as the opinion and desire of the three municipalities and with the full support and prestige of these important centres of the North. If the association is maintained and expanded, there is every reason j to believe that it will be able to ixggxz'cqs'011 the governments the needs of the day and the nmecest sity for appropriate action. * 22 «6 ‘To maintain such an association, however, it will be necessary to avoid any appearance of any one municipality or any one individual seeking to aominate the situation. Proceedings will need to be carried on with fairness to all concerned, and with due regard to the attitude of all. It seems necessary to say this because for a time ifa-fipgaré that the conference might not be held, though the delegates had duly travelled to town. ~When the Timmins town council recently passed a resoluâ€" tion inviting a conference of the threeâ€"municiâ€" palities there was no suggestion that anything but a conference was planned. On the train trip from Kirkland Lake, however, the Teck township deleâ€": gates were estounded to learn that instead of going to a conference where the difficulties 6t the‘ muniâ€" cipalities were to be discussed around the table; views exchanged, plans formulated t’dx"the"rexnédy of inequitable conditions, and from the discusâ€" sion a series of decisions might be reached on the best methods of procedureâ€"instead of this, a change had apparently been made without their knowledge and consent, and there was to be a public meeting of the ratepayers of "Timmins, which they might address. The Kirkland Lake had no possible objection to public meetings of the ratepayers of Timmins, but they did feel that they would seem intruders at such a gathering, and that in any case this was not the plan or proposal under which they had made the trip to Timmins in all good faith.., On artiyal, at Timmins they made it plain that t'l'le'ivere ready for conference but not prepared for the public meeting procedure. The eventual outcome showed the wisdom of the stand taken by the Kirkland Lake delegates. It developed in the conference that there were differences of opinion as to the best methods of procedureâ€"even as to the topics that were expedient to discuss.. A pulÂ¥fic meeting would have confused the issues stlll lfrther. â€"The place for the public meeting was either before or after the conference. That was very apparent Saturday night. The delegates from Teck were proven to be very right in their attitude that until the questions were crystallized and ptoperly forâ€" mulated it was premature to "hire a hall." The Timmins councillors present gave support to the Kirkland Lake delegates in their stand.and, the priginal plans for the conference were carried through to general advantage. Even the public that might enjoy the excitement or thrill of a hiréd nall and a meeting without any collection, were little the losers, only seven or eight of the public turning out for the meeting, and even some of these being newspaper representatives, who have their fill of public meetings. With the conference held as a conference, views were excl Che Yorcupine Aduaites TO WORK TOGETHEAt TIMMIX®, QONTARIO STREAMLINED | S i T l T e «t alP P P OAAAE L C LC L4 Subscrintion Rates anuary 18th, 1937 cisions arrived at, and an outline of procedure reached that was agreeable to all concerned. ‘ i in this issue will be found a review ;of the work of the conference. The special proâ€" blems affecting the three municipalities were preâ€" sented in effective way. What seemed to be the best | methods to overcome the difficuities encountered l were also suggested. The plan is to present all this to government notice, and with the united effort of the three municipalities concerned, and as many others in the North as may care to join in the plan, to press for fair treatment and equitable usage of the communities represented. It is worth while ’noting that most of the problems reviewed affect ‘practicaily all of the municipalities in the North. Accordingly it would appear the part of wisdom for all Northern municipalities to give official support to the new asscociation and see if something can not be accomplished by this plan to assure the North a better deal than it has received to date. zm mm i AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER| Some people have been complaining that everyâ€" thing has been "going West" in the last few years. They have objected that the West has been reâ€" ceiving so much money from the East and not making any return. Indéeed, some have even gont so far as to suggest that the attitude of the West to the East hasn‘t been much better than that of "the South towards the North. Now, however, according to Dr. Gordon P. Jackson, Medical Health Officer for Toronto, the West is about to give something to the East. The West is passing along its influenza epidemic. For some time past the West has been in the grip of the‘"grip." Onâ€" tario hasn‘t been having any of it to any extent. Now, according to the Toronto M. O. H., this is to 'Q‘e changed, and there is going to be a regular epiâ€" ‘demic of the disease in this province. He claims that it is even now on the way from the West and that there is no way to avoid it. Fortunately the disease this year is a comparatively mild typeâ€" the kind that makes a fellow feel so badly that he thinks of dying,â€"but doesn‘t go that far. Anâ€" other cheering thought is that severe cold weather will check the spread of influenza. In other words, if you suffer enough from the cold, the influenza won‘t leave you so cold, or it will leave you and you won‘t be so cold,. or something. * l PPA Omm‘wwww‘ "Whatever may be the case about the syrup," says ; The (Globe and Mail, ‘"it is improbable that any! Otherâ€"doctor will arise to contest with Dr. Dafoe| the credit for the quints.‘" That might appear to be | a statement beyond question, but there are few things indeed allowed to pass without question these days. There are even those who question Dr. Dafoe‘s contribution to the life of the quintuâ€" plets. One story current some time ago was to the effect that the chief credit goes to the midwives in the case, the children, having been born, accordâ€" ing to this story, before the #Frrival of the doctor. _ The secretary of the Moderation League in a letâ€" ter to The Advance published elsewhere in this issue, says that he got a great "kick" out of a recent editorial in The Advance. On its part The Advance admits getting a great "kick" out of the letter from the secretary of the Moderation League. That makes a pair of "kicks," and as there were »mo pants concerned in the "kicks," there is pleasure all round. There is much worthy of note in the letter referred to, but The Advance would like to make one special comment. The secretary of the Moderation League notes that Timmins has 18 beverage rooms. It may be 19 to 20 at the time of writing. Apparently the gentleman favours the idea of Toronto having the same proportion of beverage rooms to population that is enjoyed or otherwise, by Timmins. This would give Toronto 801 beer palaces. The Advance would be more inâ€" clined to approach the problem from the other anâ€" gle. Toronto now has 119 beverage rooms, which seems enough. If Timmins had the number in proâ€" portion to Toronto‘s present supply, that would fean only three or four for this town. No doubt the secretary of the Moderation League would be content to have, say, 401, instead of 801, in proâ€" portion to Timmins. By the same token there would be general satisfaction, if Timmins had 8 or 9 or 10. instead of the present 18 or 19 or 20. As a famous old tippler in an Old Ontario town used to say:â€""A little too much is just enough." content to have, sa portion to Timmins would be general sal 9 or 10. instead of t Premier Hepburn has been forced by illness to go to Arizona. A bronchial affection that has given him considerable trouble in recent years has made it necessary for him to turn over the leadership of the party in the Legislature, at least for some weeks. Hon. Mr. Nixon is acting premier during Mr. Hepburn‘s enforced absence. A lot of people may wish Hon. Mr. Hepburn well out of public life, but all will wish him well in any case.
