Another lady explained that she was born in Norwich and would like to know if that town were represented in the group of visitors. There were enquiries about Dundalk, Smith Falls, Bolton. Ontario, and Lachute, Quebec, Forâ€" est and Paris. Comber and Anrora. Elora and Lanâ€" "I wonder if you could tell me if there is anyone from Mount Forest in the list of newspapermen?" asked one lady, adding that her home was in Mount Forest, and she was anxious to meet anyone from the old home town. . "My old home is in Perth," said a gentleman over the phone, "who is here from that good old fairly accurate one. Toâ€"day with a population almost double that of the census year of 1931, the idea of peoples of different origins still holds. Timmins is certainly a cosmopolitan town. There are scores of times during the year when this is made apparent, usually in pleasing way. For instance, there was the coronation day parade last year when the people of other nationalities had dozens of attractive floats and features in the parade to show that though they remembered the land of their fathers, their love and loyalty wont out to the land of their sonsâ€"Canadaâ€"and the Empire of ‘which it is a part. It is not so generally recognized, however, that even the Canadians living in Timmins come from widely separated places. On Friday last, The Advance had occasion to be specially impressed with this fact. The telephone rang many times indeed, to learn if this or that town were repreâ€" sented in the group of members of Ontarioâ€"Queâ€" bec Division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association touring the North and visiting Timâ€" mins on Friday. fown showed approximately 3,000 of English, 1,500 of Irish, 1,300 of Scottish, 5,000 of French, 874 of Italâ€" ian, 569 of Finnish, 356 of Ukrainian, 302 of Polish, 241 of Rumanian, 208 of Hebrew, 156 of German, 126 of Scandinavian, 112 of Austrian, 71 of Rusâ€" sian, 36 of Chinese, 51 of Dutch, 43 of Czechosloâ€" vakian, 14 of Belgian, 10 of Hungarian, and 6 of Indian origin in the municipality of Timmins. While the census figures perhaps did not fully cover the situation, the picture given was a fairly accurate one. Toâ€"day with a population In meeting delegations from the South, the aim of the Timmins board of trade has been to makt known the resources and possibilities of the North and build up understanding and friendship that will help all Ontario, all Canada. In the past few years there have been many cases where thi: good object appears to have been achieved in large measure. But it is not too much to say that the visit last week will prove of outstanding value to the North. The newspapermen were keen and quick in their grasp of the essentials of the case for the North. They were surprised, pertiups, ai the development of the country, but they could also visualize a greater and better North to come. In a word, they left here with good opinisns and vcood wishes for the North, and this means that a hundred powerful agencies will now be at work as friends of the North. Men of the larger newsâ€" papers in their hearts envy the men of the weekly and semiâ€"weekly newspapers because of the closer touch the latter have with their readers. The weekly and semiâ€"weekly newspapers reach the heart of the province of Ontario. Their combined goodwill is a most valuable asset. The majority of the daily newspapers of Ontario have tried to understand the North and to support the North. That should be gladly acknowledged by the people of the North. It should also be admitted that with the friendship and acquaintance of the weekâ€" ly newspapers of the province, the North is in still better position to receive the attention, the help, the coâ€"operation, that will mean the deâ€" velopment of this country and its progress and contentment. It is well known that Timmins is a cosmopolitan town. ‘The people in the Porcupine Camp came literally from all over the earth. The last census The North has had its share of tours and visits by Southern Ontario people, and the people here are shrewd enough to see that all these visits are Of advantage to the North. They make the North more widely known; they spread a knowledge anc: understanding of the problems of the North; they add to friendship and unity in the province. The visit to Timmins last Friday of over a hundred members of the Ontarioâ€"Quebec Division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association will unâ€" doubtedly prove of special value to the Northâ€" and to the South. Any advantage that may come to the North will react upon the South, for the South cannot help the North without helping itâ€" self. In the same way the North is vitally interâ€" ested in the fortunes of the South, and every coâ€" operation between the North and South is to mutual advantage.

At last session of the Ontario Legislature a speâ€" cial committee was appointed to investigate adâ€" ministration of the Hydroâ€"Electric Commission affairs in recent years. The committee started it® arduous duties a few days ago, but was scarcely more than under full steam before the enquiry seemed to be switched to sidetracks. Hon. Arthur W. Roebuck, former member of the Hepburn cabâ€" inet was one of the witnesses last week who apâ€" peared to be more anxious to derail the train than get it back on the main track. He alleged at one time that instead of the CI.O. issue being the reason for his forced resignation from the post of Attorneyâ€"General of Ontario, it was really Pubâ€" lisher Geo. McCullagh of The Globe and Mail that secured his dismissal, and all because of his atâ€" titude on Hydroâ€"Electric matters. In answer to this charge, Publisher McCullagh issued a stateâ€" ment flatly denying the truth of Mr. Roebuck‘s statement so far as the Hydroâ€"Electric matter was concerned, but adding that long before either issue had arisen, the dismissal of Mr. Roebuck had been urged in the interests of the public because of his objectionable attitude and disposition toâ€" wards matters that the average Canadian held dear. There have been scores of other side issues followed in the enquiry, and readers of the newsâ€" papers may well be puzzled as to what the investiâ€" gation is about. At Friday‘s session of the comâ€" mittee only three questions by Hon. Leopold Maâ€" cauley, leader of the Opposition, were touched upon, and each one seemed to start somebody ofl on something that, no matter how interesting it might be, seemed to have little bearing on the Hydroâ€"Electric Commission of Ontario. Premier Hepburn once more seems to have scored a bullsâ€" eye when he stated on Friday:â€"**"There has been too much loose evidence in this Hydro enquiry to date; too many innuendoes, too many suspicions voiced without any foundation in fact. I‘m just waiting until I can get in the witness box and cleari the air on a lot of matters. T‘ll have to say, too." ‘ The public will await Hon. Mr. Hepburn‘s eviâ€"! At the banquet given to the visiting newspaperâ€" men by the Timmins board of trade on Friday night several references were made to the idea that there should be no division between the North and the South of Ontario. Circumstances and conditions and distance makes a certain amount of division inevitable, but it is difficult to see how there can be anything but friendliness and understanding between the people of North and South, so long as there are happy tours from the South such as the one last week, and so long as so many people in the North maintain so proâ€" nounced an affection and interest in their old home town in Old Ontario. GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER To most of the enquiries The Advance was able to give satisfactory answer to the effect that Mr. Soâ€"andâ€"so or Mrs. Soâ€"andâ€"so or Miss Soâ€"andâ€"so was representing suchâ€"andâ€"such a paper from the remembered old towns.

There were many calls about the older or the bigger towns like St. Mary‘s, Barrie, Orillia, Collingwood, Huntingdon (Quebec), Smith‘s Falls, Brampton, Bowmanville, and many others, but it was in the case of the smaller places that the interest seemâ€" ed to be the keenest and there was the highest o! pride in saying "that is my old home town."

The pipers made an attractive appearance in their handsome costumes, and their music was enjoyed by even those who pretended not to be interested. The pipers as usual were an outstanding feature of the day, and as usual they were generous with services. Their leading of the newspapermen to the town hall for the formal opening ceremony was one specially pleasing touch to the proceedâ€" ings. Another was their marching before the town hall during the afternoon. Then in the evening their march around the tables at the banâ€" quet at the Empire hotel was greatly appreciated and applauded.

To some at first glance the sentence of one year may seem severe, but this is simply because the public are not used to such saluâ€" tary punishment in these cases.
