To most people it will be their first introducticn to *"Kootâ€" enay," but they will find the gentleâ€" man well and like him much. The story of "Kootznay" is from The Northâ€" ern News and reads as follows: "Kootenay Visits Kirkland" "After ‘"‘Roaring Dan" Saunders christened him "The Kid from the Kootenay‘" all the miners and muckers called him "Kcotenay." He had driftâ€" ed in som>»> three months before and was just a little different. He was, in fact, to the best of his ability, lawâ€" yer, parson and first aid assistant to any who needed him. It jJust happenâ€" ed that way for Kootenay to be scholâ€" arly and educated. He was tall, slim and blond. There was one change in the group from last year, Mr. Harrison Jones replacing Mr. Yarbrough as one of the tenors. Mr. Jones was in the group here in 1936. It may be noted, by the way, that reference to The Advance fyles shows that this year is the fourth and not the third visit of the Virginia Singers here, the first appearance beâ€" ing in 1935. At the presefit time the following about ‘"The Kid from Kootenay," will A Timely Sketch of the Misfortune that _ Befel ‘Kootenay‘ and Its Results "On a Crcember morning in 1913, Kcotenay wont on duty with the day shift. It was a crisp frosty morning. Up there at the old ‘"Nickel Plate" gold mine in Hedley, B.C., at an altitude of nearly 7,000 feet the dawn of a winter morning is clear, being raised above the mist clouds. It was here that Kootenay looked at the snowâ€"flecked pines for the last time. He also saw the wide plateau of bunch grass stretching away to the east and the band of wild horses that sometimes came and went from nowhere to noâ€" where. Up From Calamity to Notable Service "That evening before he had bsen reading Shakespeare‘s King Lear but had got fed up with it and read of some of ‘"The Count of Monte Christo." He had found these books in a cache Jjust above the rafters of the bunk house. "At 7.56 a.m. that morning he was levelling the floor in a crossâ€"cut and something happened. Kootenay caught the pick in a piecie of old dynamite and he was knocked out. It was a long story after that and a long way to Spokane. ItG was, to Kootenay a much longer wait for the verdict of eye specialists. Then it came at the end of 10 terrible weeks. Blindness. "Kootenay stuck around for many weeks at the town of Hediey. Each morning he woke to the most terrible reality which told him there was no day. It was all Night. No one could really help because no one underâ€" stood. Kindly fellows would tell him of some clever blind fellow they had known in Frisco or St. Louis but such blind men were far away. Kootenay suffered the azony of idleness. Walter, cne of the diamond drill crew was down with broken leg. He wanted to know about geology and Kootenay toid him (Continued From Page One) The following is the programme: "Paean of Exaltation," opening numâ€" Every Time I Feel the Spirit Litt!s Wheel Turning In Some other guy from the Jeise and he wanted to know about chomistry. Kootenay told him. Such activities were helpful but they wore sporadic. "At last, with affairs settled, Kootâ€" ~nay passed out of those scenes. Not altogether forgotten. HMe went to Engâ€" land. He ceased to b> Kootenay exâ€" cept when a letter came from Roarâ€" ing Dan. He learned to read with his fingers and to write Braille and with a typewriter. He began a life‘s work to help other blind pecple. Kootenay is in Kirkland Lake this weok. His other name to us is Dave Lawley, supâ€" erviscr of Field Work, The Canadian Natiâ€"nal Institute for the Blind. The Moral Of course, there is a special moral in the above story. The Northern News doesu‘t state it in so many words, but certainly impliogyit. The Advance will put the moral "in definite words for Timmins and district, thus:â€" "Gaturday of this week is Tag Day for the blind in Timmins. Let it be a gencrous collection, so that there will be so much the more money for ‘The Kid from Kootenay" to carry on the notable work he is doing for the asâ€" sistance of the blind in the North and elsewhere." To Decide Soon on â€" | 194 AsolobLdfitt T. N. O. EXtenSiOHi Housing Commission Proâ€" Word from Toronto says that Promâ€" ier Hepburn suggzgests that it will soon be decided whether the T. N . O. extension north of Cochrane will ‘be rehabilitated or abandoned. The Premâ€" ier himself is said to rather favour abandonment on the plea that it will cost $750,000 in the next few years for ties alone for the extension. No defâ€" inite decision has been reached as yet, the Premier says, so the people of the North should hasten to present him with the necessary facts and figures that will prove that the line should not be abandoned. Premier Said to be Inclined to Abandon Line. _ _ Found guilty of a charge of shooting [a duck out of season, contrary to the Migratory Birds Convention Act, Roâ€" ‘bert Trollope, was fined $10 and costs in police court here this week. The charge was laid by Game and Fisheries Overseer Phil Boudreau. Many Hunters Open Local Duck Seasonr With the alarm thought to have been raised by persons on the other side of the lake who presumed that he was in difficulty, firemen and forest rangers dashed to Gillies Lake shortly after six o‘cleck last night to rescue Stewart Irving, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Irving. Ifakes and Marshlands _ _are Thickly Populated by Nimrods Early Toâ€"day. The marshlands in the vicinity of Connaught boomed with the guns of duck hunters this morning as the seaâ€" son officially opened. Hundreds of nimrods journeyed to vantage points and by daylight were securely located in "hides" waiting for the first flight of the morning. Late last night and early this mornâ€" ing, dozens of cars were on the way to Moose and Nighthawk lakes, nearly every car carrying one or more boats. Many others visited favorite haunts along the Mattagami river and one employee of the local power company was out and back to work at eight o‘clock with six ducks. Preâ€"season inâ€" dications were that ducks would be plentiful for the opening day. Firemen Responded but Help Not Needed The young lad had been out in the lake on a raft and nearing shore the improvised craft became stuck in heavy weeds. Stewart stepped off the raft and waded in to shore alongside Hollinger compressor building without any diffiâ€" culty. He was none the worse for his experience, Report of Youth in Diffiâ€" culty at . Lake Proves False Alarm. Members of the Ladies‘ Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion are asked to take part in the Tag Day for the Blind on Saturday, and to donate their services in the tagging. Those who are willing to take part in this worthy work are asked to contact Mrs. Hardy, president of the Ladies‘ Auxiliary, phone 1579â€"J, so that she may know exactly how many taggers from the Auxiliary will work on Saturday. Exchange: Riudoiph Diesel, the talâ€" en‘ed inventor of the engine bearing his name, died mystriously twentyâ€"five years ago. The German Government of that day did its best to deprive Dicâ€" sel of the fruits of his invention. When he tried to negotiate with the British Government to safeguard his patent rights, Diesel disappeared, with all his papers, at sea on a voyage between England and Germany. Ten months later, in August 1914, three thousand submarines left German ports equipâ€" ped with the new Diesel engine of which the German Government had become possessed of the secret.
