Mr. Heinonen, of the Finnish United Church at Timmins and South Porâ€" cupine, have become noted because of their outstanding value to Canadian citizenship in the better understanding of new Canadians and their Englishâ€" speaking brethren.

Now, he has gone one betterâ€"he has started classes in Finnish for Englishâ€"speaking people. The classes are attended chiefly by Englishâ€"speaking leaders in the church who wish to get in closer touch with the Finnishâ€"speaking people and also to extend their own culture.

An indicaâ€" tion that the gathering is an emergent one, is the fact that representatives from different localities have been summoned by wire.

With representatives from both Northern and Southern Ontario, ideas and facts with regard to their reâ€" spective areas may ‘be given and it is hoped that a better understanding of conditions as they actually exist will be the result.

CuIr For Councifors our elected. r Christmas shopping early For Mavor the official totals ng in the Townâ€" Published at Timmins, Ont.., Canada Every MONDAY and THURSDAY Chief Gagnon strongly recommends that no boy under the age of fourteen years be allowed to sell papers on the streets. This, the chief points out, is a well considered opinion and is the result of a close study of conditions as they now exist. â€" Continuous complaints have been received that young boys from eight to ten years of age have been making a practice of going into hote!l beverage rooms and annoying customers in restaurants in quest of sales. "The whole system as it now obtains is a breeding ground for juvenile court records will show," said the chief. *"The police commission are in favour of this byâ€"law and I intend to have it prepared at once," he said. That the "gangster‘"‘ type of boy is not unknown is clearly evidenced by young lads who have on several occasâ€" ions complained to the police that bigâ€" ger and stronger newsboys have forcibly taken their papers and money from them. This condition more than anyâ€" thing else has determined Chief Gagnon to take regulatory action. Plan Byâ€"Law To Prohibit Newsboys Under 14 Years Continued Cold Weather With the preliminary groundwork being partially complete, Chief of Police Leo H. Gagnon is preparing a byâ€"law to govern the sales of newspapers by newsboys in Timmins. Chief Gagnor will shortly confer with Crown Attorâ€" ney S. A. Caldbick and the first draft of the proposed byâ€"law will be preâ€" sented to the Police Commission at an early date. Nine inches of snow has fallen in this district since Monday, it is reâ€" ported by S..C. Wheeler, of the meteorâ€" ological department at Hollinger Mine.

This practice which is in direct conâ€" travention to the eight o‘clock curfew ruling is to be stopped at once. When the byâ€"law is finally passed all constables on the force will be given instructions to see that its provisions are rigidly enforced.
