Canada There has been such special interest in the photographs appearing in The Advance windows and in the reproducâ€" tions published in The Advance, that it has been impressed on all that there is unlusual interest in amateur photoâ€" graphy in this district as well as a particularly large number of nonâ€"proâ€" fessional camera artists who are parâ€" ticularly skilled in this line. Accordâ€" ingly, The Advance decided some weeks ago, with the coâ€"operation of local proâ€" fessional photographers and dealers in supplies, to encourage the interest by a contest with prizes and a grand prize. Details of the contest will be found elsewhere in this issue. Amateur phoâ€" tographers will find special interest and satisfaction in entering this conâ€" test. It will be a pleasure for all. Conâ€" testants may send in as many entries as they wish and no particular reâ€" strictions are placed on the subjects chosen. It is hoped, however, to have a large number of entries of local picâ€" tures of places and persons. There is no end to the subjects lending themâ€" selves to the skill of the amateur phoâ€" tographer in this districtâ€"town homes and gardens, street scenes, the hundred and one pictures that fairly cry cut to be taken of progress and activity at the mires, beauties of forest and stream and lake and sky.

McQuesten, Ontario Minister of Highways, who arrived in Timmins last night after returning from Hearst on a tour of Northern Ontario highways, anâ€" nounced this morning that the road from Timmins to Pamour will definitely be paved this year, with the excepâ€" tion of the new section from Porcupine Lake to South Porcupine, which is now under construction. Mr. Mcâ€" Questen was accompanied on his trip by Deputy Minister TIMMINS, ONTARIO : THURS DAY, JULY 14TH, 19838 the new Hallnor is a picture taken , vieeâ€"president of Mr. President W. O. Langdon this week called the attention of The Advance to the fact that in Southern Ontario a number of merchants and others are being victimized by spurious Mexican bills that are worthless. This Mexican money, however, is very much in apâ€" pearance like the ordinary Canadian $5 bill. So far as can be learned none of these bogus bills have been passed in Timmins up to the present, but it is a certainty that only a few days after every passing of counterfeit money in the Scuth, there is sure to be some of the bogus money brought to the North., In past years on practically every ocâ€" casion when people were victimized in the South by counterfeit coins or bills, similar forms of worthless currency would be likely to appear in Timmins and district. There is reason for beâ€" lieving that just as soon as things beâ€" gin to look dangerous in the South those who make a hobby or their life work of "passing the queer" are nearly certain to hurry from the chance of capture in the South and come north in the hope of getting away for a while Beware Worthless $5 Bills at least with their particular form of crime. For a great many years The Advance has made a point of calling attention to counterfeit operations carâ€" ried on in the South, so that the busiâ€" ness men here may escape the losses that follow the operations of counterâ€" feiters. Accordingly, warning is given here again to watch clut for Mexican bills that look like Canadian $5 bills. The best plan is to notify the police in case any attempt is made to pass off on»e of these bills. Councillor Wren Becomes a Father Councillor Bill Wren became a fathâ€" er yesterday, his wife giving birth to a healthy baby son at St. Mary‘s hosâ€" pital. At the meeting of council Mayor Bartleman offered his hearty congratuâ€" lations, which were warmly endorsed by his colleagues. "The father looks pretty well," said Councillor Karl Eyre as he oxtended his felicitations. A blessed event also took place yesâ€" terday in the family of Chief of Police Leo H.

It is claimed that this trip has never been made before, although a somewhat similar route has been followed from James Bay to the South by cance. Men well acquainted with the country and the route say that the plan is quite practical and would be safe and interesting if the party had one or more well acquained with the country and conditions.

Largest Orange Gathering Since 1930 in District, Weekâ€"End Will be Mostly Fair and Warm Says Forecaster at Hollinget Mine. Mr. McQuesten described himself as delighted with the progress that is being made in road building in Northâ€" ern Ontario. He spoke particularly of the improvements being made in the Temagami district, where extensive grading and straightening operations have been in progress since last fall. "The importance of the tourist industry is having a large bearing on the deâ€" velopment of roads in the North," Mr. McQuesten said. "The more tourists that are attracted to the North the more demand here will be for better roads, which are the foundation of proâ€" gress for this part of the province," said the minister. Asked regarding a suggestion that has been made here frequently regardâ€" ing the building of a road from Timâ€" mins to Sudbury, Mr. McQuesten adâ€" mitted that the project had been conâ€" sidered to some extent. He hoped howâ€" ever that the department would be alâ€" lowed to finish the paveing of the road from Timmins to Toronto before being pressed into other projects. "In the past, up to 1936, so many things were started that it was impossible to finâ€" ish anything," he remarked. Paving of the highway from Timâ€" mins to Pamour will be completed this vyear, with the exception of the new portion of the road from Porcupine Lake to South Porcupine, it was anâ€" nounced here toâ€"day by Hon.
