She had lived in Timmins with her daughter, Mrs. D. McPhail, 28 Sixth avenue, for the past three years, but had been il] for some time past. The special brand of freshments for which the Ladies‘ Auxiliary has earned cuite a reputation will be a feature of this dance also. Death of Mrs. L.

South America, E. L. Longmore told Kiwanâ€" ians on Mcnday when he described briefly some of the highlights of his recent trip from Timmins to Medellia, Colombia. Taking the fastest possible route from the northern gold mining centre to the one set deep in Colombian mountains, Mr. Longmore flew from New York to Miami by land plane in nine hours, and from Miami to Barâ€" ranquilla, Colombia, in the China Clipâ€" per, the giant passenger aeroplane that first made the commercial transâ€" Pacific flight. From Barranquilla to Medellia, he travelled by land plane again. LA s CAAAA + German Aviators Do Good Job Air service in the interior‘ of the South American republic presents grave problems at times, since the country is traversed from north to south by. three great mountain ranges, part of file great Rockiesâ€"Andes chain. Aeroplanes are of extremely light conâ€" struction so that they may be able to rise from sea level safely to the mounâ€" tainous interior. German exâ€"air force cfficers make the backbone of the Colombian airways and do a courteous, efficient job. Landing at Barranquilla from the transâ€"Caribbean flight also has its bazards. The great river Magdalena that gives the republic its chief drainâ€" age system brings down to the sea great logs and other waterâ€"borne maâ€" teria‘ls, so that it is most dangerous to try to come down after dark. So rapidly does tropical night close over the air harbour that the clippers cften remain overnight at Jamaica rather than take a chance of arriving «t Barranquilla after sunset. Women Live in Middle Ages Women of Colombia live much as the Epanish lived in the Middle Ages, Mr. Longmore said. They have no political rights and are almost completely subâ€" servient to their families and husbands. They appear in public veiled. These are U.e women of the ‘upper classes" whose chief claim to superiority is that they are direct, unmixed descendants of the oiiginal Spanish conquerors.

In some places the average winter temperature differs from the average summer temperature by only one degree. Supplemeniing aeroplane ‘travel â€" in the North and akin in some waysâ€" to the aeroplane is the snowâ€"sedan, most practical of all snowmobiles There‘s one in Timmins now, owned by Hamlin B. Hatch, geologist and conâ€" sulting engineer for a number of mines m the Porcupine arca. Like something out of the future, the streamlined silver sled glides aoross snow and ice more smoothly than anyâ€" thing yet seen in the North. Light in weight, weil proportioned and comfortâ€" able, the snowâ€"sled is here to stay as the means of transportation that will allow men to move in ard cut with speed and safety from the mires that are still "in the buwh" and cannot be reached by aeroplane.

King George VI will be sold by the Leâ€" Troop of Boy Scouts to be Sponsored by Legion There was much of public interest transacted at the general meeting of the Canadian Legion on Monday evening, and also a vast source of informtion, educational to the members in the disâ€" cussions. The meeting opened in its usual touching marner with the "twoâ€"minâ€" utes silence" and the singing of "O Canada." President Austin Neame ocâ€" cupied the chair and all officers were present, with a very large gathering of members. Minutes were read and passâ€" ed. ~The financial statement still holds its own after a heavy Christmas expenâ€" diture and a substantial payment off the buildingâ€"which was very gratifying to the members. Ten applications were read and two exâ€"servicemen took the initiation pledge. The sick and visiting committee had a long list of those laidâ€" up with the "flu," and three serious cases in the hospital. Timmins Branch Also Likely to Be Given Complete Charge of Celebration of Coronation in the Porcupine Camp. Legion Library Now Open. Tenth Birthday of Legion to Be Observed Under the heading of general business the branch got down to work. The first enlightening discussion centred around the purchase of a Legion branch stanâ€" dard and its supporting flag, the Union Jack. It seems that these went in pairs. One member wanted the Canadian flag and was told there wasn‘t one. Various members spoke on this subject and flags, ensigns, etc., gave the members a lot of useful advice, but in the end the standard and Union Jack was ordered purchased. The next important debate revolved around the sponsoring of a Boy Scout troop. The troop was said to be fully organized and ready to accept the sponâ€" sorship of the Legion. ~All discussion was in favour of the idea,. but differed in detail; some wanted the branch to get the boys fully equipped as soon as pusâ€" sible; others wanted a troop of just sons of Legion members.. Much information was gathered regarding the Scout movement and the whole gatnering voted unanimously for sponsoring the troop of Boy Scouts. Published at Timmins, Ont.. Canada, Erery MONDAY and THURSDAY May Hear Byâ€"law Case on Monday Wednesday Closing Byâ€"laws Before Supreme Court of Ontario A motion made in the Supreme Court of Ontario at Osgoode Hall askâ€" ing that three Wednesday closing byâ€" laws be quashed, will be heard on Monday, March ist. The Town of Timmins,. fighting the motion, asked for an adjournment from the date criginally set, Monday, February 22nd. It is believed that when the motion comes up for hearing on Monday of next week, the case will go ahead and the decision of the court will be given within a few days. In the meantime, it is likely that charges in Timmins police cour: against Sam Bucovetsky, the I. K. Pierce FPurniture Company and Marâ€" shall Ecclestone will be remanded anâ€" other week or so. The three firms are charged with having remained open Death on Monday Morning of Mrs. Alexander Lavoie cn Wednesday afterncon, contrary to the byâ€"laws that were placed on the town‘s statute books this January. Following an iliness of over five years., Mrs. Alexander Lavoie, 11 Eyre street, Sirdbury, passed away in St. Josaph‘s l:ospital at Sudbury on Monday mornâ€" nig at the age of 51 years She came to Sudbury from Sprague, Ont., 25 years ago with her husband.

The funeral was held on Wednesday mornâ€" ing, February 23 at 9 o‘clock from the Church of Christ the King. Interment was made in the Roman Catholic cemetery at Garson Mine. gion only, in the Porcupine Camp and it seems probable from present indicaâ€" tions that the Timmins branch will be asked to take charge of the entire celeâ€" bration of the Porcupine camp. The Legion library was declared offiâ€" clally opened with the wish that those who had promised books bring them forward as soon as possible. The tenth birthday of the Timmins branch was mentioned and the officers are to arrange a fitting commemoration of the event. It will likely take the form of a social evening during the next week or so. With the singing of the National Anâ€" them the meeting closed. Canada.
