In an editorial ten years ago The Adâ€" vanee took up the case of a settler who had been troubled by his neighbour‘s pigs and who had to call in the provinâ€" cial police in the matter. He was chargâ€" ed five dollars for expenses for trip of the police to his farm and The Adâ€" vance objected to this apparent placing of a price on justice. The case was a peculiar one. The settler, after endurâ€" ing considerable loss from the neighâ€" bour‘s wandering pigs, took the matter to court and v was no furth could not col | At the same t troyving stuff, sent for the p ed for $5 for e move in the commented 0o procedure anc tion was take The provincia 4.4 04â€" 04â€" 40 Bd d ic itedic is «Wms tm § <= m U ns t esns T Cc t y smm 6 % TE N IN s en t an enc oc m in on mm n I From io: #G cce §# §§ #1 cooc~ $ t â€" TEN YEARS, AGO IN TIMMINS io *‘ 5 5 h C .4-'72 U r‘ Â¥ "':S‘- "."' s l. * s y S# | n ty DX s uk id C y P 2 -..‘ 1938 Motor Vehicle Permits Are Now Available From data in the Poreupine Advance Fyles OuaBadia Avdiadia evetawstaate dteate t @© °® # # The Covernment having decided to change the license year to coincide with its fiscal year, 1938 permits and licenses will be valid to March 3l1st, 1939 They save the purchaser of a used car or truck the fee for transferring the 1937 registration (1938 Permit can be procured without transfer fee). As indicated in the Budget Address delivered on March O9th of this year, the Government is able to announce a downward revision in the fees for the registration of Motor Vehicles. DUE to the advance in the new car purchasing season and the fact that increasingly large numbers of used cars and trucks are now purchased at this time of year and following the practice established last year which met with such favourable reception on the part of the motoring public, 1938 Motor Vehicle Permits and Operators‘ Licenses are being made available in advance of the date of expiration of 1937 permits. 1938 Permits (now available) save the purchaser of a new car or truck the expense registration. This advance sale of 1938 Motor Vehicle Permits and Operators® Licenses is for your convenience. All Commercial Motor Vehicles and Trailers have been reduced 25% from the 1937 rate. The Fee for the registration of a change of ownership has been reduced from $2.00 to $1.00. Fee for the Registration of a Motor Cycle has been reduced from $3.00 to $1.00.

When they arrived at the alarm box, however, there was no one there that could tell them where the fire might be and there was no fire visible. It looked like a false alarm, but Chief Borland and his men were taking no chances,*"and made a hurried examination of every place in the neighbourhood. In the meantime Constable Parcher had located the careâ€" taker of the Goldfields theatre block who said he had turned in the alarm. He had been alarmed by smoke in the basement of the building and had run out in his night attire. A crowd had collected, and the janitor accordingly had fled before the crowd, with the inâ€" tention of getting into his boots and trousers before the brigade arrived. The cause of the alarm was the pipes of the furnace and the chimney being on fire. There was no damage, however, the pipes and chimney being of the fireâ€"proof variety. © . _# .“.00 #. _®_ _®. * .00.“.00. *# #* w# *# # #* #o# # # *# * # #* ## ## # o uns 2t 222 “.00.“.“.“.“.“.“ “.“.“.“.“.“. ## .“ .00 .“.“ .“ .“. *# #* .“ V °9.
