MONDAY. OCTOBER 17TH, 1938 The Advance twenty years ago had aA frontâ€"page article in reference to the prevalence of "Spanish Flue" in Canâ€" ada at that time. The Provincial Board of Health was quoted as saying thai they feared that fully one half of the population of Ontario would be affectâ€" ed before the epidemic had run its course. The Advance was able on Oc 9th, 1918, to refer to the epidemic as follows, but in a few weeks would have to revise this summary:â€"*"The Nort‘i Land, so far, has fairly well escaped the trouble. Cobalt, Haileybury and other North towns have been frse from cases and Timmins has had no epidemic. Some months ago there was a partial epidemic of the trouble that is now thought to have been "Spanish Flu." Among the sufferers some months ago were Magistrate Atkinson and Inspector Blackwall. They will be trustinz now that one attack gives immunity from second siege." In a few weeks, however, it appeared here, as will be noted by ifollowing this column. There was a tendency to create panic by tales of the number of deaths, and The Advance to counterâ€" act this was listing each week all the burial permits issued. t P P P PP P t P P AL PPA PP â€"ALP PAE ""fi Twenty years ago The Advante callâ€" ed attention of all United States citiâ€" zens in the North Land to a notice published in another column of the isâ€" sue by the Government of Carada. In this notice all United States citizens between the ages of 19 and 44 were required to register with the Disâ€" trict Registrar under the Milit2ary Service Act, C. Lesslie Wilson, Toroa‘o, Ont. At the regular meeting of the iimâ€" mins Fire Brigade twenty years A80, Fireman J. T. Easton suggested that the brigade organize a couple of salvase corps to take charge of movable ana other property at fires. He pointed out the useful work that could be done in the saving of furniture, etc., if some one with authority to act were early on the seene. The idea was enthusiâ€" astically endorsed by the brigade and two teams were named as the first salâ€" vage corps of the Timmins fire brigae, and captained by W. C. Smith and the other by P. Jeffrey. The bringing of electric lights to Porâ€" quis Junction was thus referred to by The Advance twenty years ago:â€""The T. N. O. Railway has given E. M. Allworth, of Timmins, the contract IOr the instaliation of a comp‘ete electric light plant for the station at Porqiuls Junction. The electricity will be genâ€" erated by a gasoline plant, and the system will be a modern one and coniâ€" plete in all details. The station, yards, etc.. will be lishted by electric ligh, and not only more satisfactory service thus secured, but also that the plan will mean in the end considerable economy. The public in general will be pleased indced to learn that Porquis Junction is to be improved to this _«tent, the Junction being a place where so have to spend more or less happy hours, usually at night, waiting for connecilâ€" ing trains to take them where they would prefer to be." mt lt DP PA P PAE Here is another paragraph from The Advance of twenty years ago that may recall the war days when coal was une of the "precious metals" up in this North Land:â€""Mr. H. Peters has a sample Oof a «mineral once wellâ€"known in the Porcupine, but now only a memâ€" ory. At the risk of having his window broken by some bold robber tempted by the display of wealth, Mr. Peters has actually displayed this practically exâ€" tinct mineral with a card reading:â€" "A. specimen of genuine coalâ€"â€"very rareâ€"worth fabulooas pricesâ€"was ally burned in stoves and furnaces beâ€" fore the Great Warâ€"now almost uaâ€" known.": The Union Coal Co. and John W. Fogg both swear that Posâ€" master Peters will never get another sample of: the precious mineral until the post office is kept open an hour Sundays, or words to that effect." The Advance of Oct. 9th, 1918 the following announcement was madsâ€" T wenty Y ears Ago From The Porcupine Advance Fyles "Mr. 8.

The Curtis Dru3 'Co. will likely move to their new quarâ€"| ters in November." | A find of â€" platinum â€" was repor‘ed twenty years ago from near Devil‘s Lake, in the Temagami Forest Reserve. The Advance pointed out that soine years previously there had beon similar from the same locality but thoush some work had been done noâ€" thing further had come from it. The Advance was very anxious that a plaâ€" tinum mine should be discovered in tius North Land, but was not very hopef{ul n the matter. Twenty years azo The Advance said: "It was with the deepest regret and genuine sorrow this week that the news was learned here of the drath from wounds of Archie Chisholm, on Sepi. 24th. The deceased soldier was a broâ€" ther of Mr. Dan Chisholim, of this camp, and was one of: the earlicst pioncers of the mining districis of the North Land. He was at Cobalt in the early days and was also one of the mosi esteemed and popular men among vhne oldâ€"timers of the Porcupine. In addiâ€" tion to doing diamond drill work, prosâ€" pecting, etc., he was also for a time at the Hollinger Mine before going overâ€" seas to give his life for his country and the right." Twoâ€"Way Radio Helps in Fighting Old Bush Fires short wave twoâ€"way radio may soOn be the newest aid for firemen, it was indicated in the address of Anthony J. Mullaney, first deputy chief fire marâ€" shal of Chicago, before the National Safety Congress, states Science Service. Fire chiefs nowadays, he said, not only have to know how to fight fires but they cught to be mechanical, hy â€" draulic and electrical engineers and probably architects too. They must have at the disposal of the department an expert chemist to analyze and deâ€" termine the fire resistance of the hunâ€" dreds of matenals which now go into buildings. The new twoâ€"way radio is now being studied by the Chicago fire departâ€" ment. It would be strapped on a fireâ€" man‘s back and could be taken into a burning building. The information from the seat of the fire, could thus be transmitted back to a central control station outside the structure and efâ€" forts of all the firefighting forces could be coâ€"ordinated by the chief in charge. cago fire department which permits commands to be heard above the noise and confusion at any major fire, Supplementing this central control is the loud speaker public address sysâ€" tem now installed on trucks by the Chiâ€" wGetting the warnings and advice on safety from the ‘posters into the heads of the employes is a major problem in the reduction of industrial accidents. Lottery Scheme Helps Safety Work in F; This was the verdict of most of the speakers at the meeting of the National Safety Congress, reports Scisnce Serâ€" vice, Chicago.. Many speakers urged safety committees with powers to assess fines against careless workers, with disâ€" missal the supreme penalty for neglect and carelessness. But more novel and completely sucâ€" cessful was the example of the Union Pacific Coal Company, which now makes use of a modified lottery for emâ€" ployes to help its safety program. The safety history of this company showed that only indifferent success had been secured over a 10â€"year period, and at a cost of over $1,000,000, with the usual methods. Then the lottery idea was tried. Periodically, drawings are held for the employes in which automobiles and other valuable prizes are awarded. But to be eligible for such drawings an employe must have completed at least six months of no time lost through acâ€" cident. With this as an incentive, the safety record of the company has now steadily improved.

C. Houston,. consulting engineer, "results shown to date have been so satisfactory that hey call for a much expanded proâ€" gram of development." Mr. Houston advises the ~raising and spending of from $250,000 to $300,000 for further deâ€" velopment. as "results amply warrant it, and indicate that you have a mine in the making." During the past month, according to the report, drilling indicated some 60,â€" 000 tons of ore of about $12 to $13 grade. Estimate would have to be conâ€" firmed by opening up the orebody. "All the drill holes put down have cut the belt of iron formation, with the exâ€" ception of a couple at the extreme north," the report adds, in part," where the iron belt has apparently been erodâ€" ed; and most of them have shown ore. The ore will occur in shoots of greater or less extent laterally. Four of these shoots have been indicated by drilliny. Only the third from the north has been tested to any depth as yet. This shoot has been drilled at intervals to a depth on the dip of 550 feet and shows pracâ€" cally continuous ore for that depth. Other shoots should be delimited . . . there is little doubt that they will show similar results." Drilling of something over 5,000 feet has been carried out to date:; Mr. Houâ€" ston‘s recommendations are that 20.â€" 000 more feet would be advisable. At the same time, recommendation is that a shaft shoulg be sunk to 250 feet, as a preliminary to underground exploraâ€" tion.: Work, he suggests, should be pressed as rapidly as possible, Says King sad Queen Should Visit North Last woeek The Advance suggested| that on their projected visit to Canaria next year, King George VI and Qugen Elizabeth should include the North in their tour of this country. The same idea came to The Northern Tribuune, of Kapuskasinz, though neither The Adâ€" vance nor The Northern Tribune had! any idea of the intention of the other| to write on the royal visit. Here is the comment on the royal visit as published last Thursday, Oct. 13th, in The Northern Tribune:â€" "In the North, we can only wish thai their majesties can traverse this linâ€" mense new pioneering territory, howâ€"| ever few and brief their stops. In the | past, visits of British notables to Canâ€" ada have invariably been routed soutvh of here to the west, chiefly via .CP.R. lines. We venture to say this much| without animus, that considering prediction already made that the king| and queen will come to ‘Canada on a | C.P.R. liner chartered for the occasion.! that circumstance should weigh as the contribution of ciur privately cwned transportation system to the state visit; | and the rail travels of our royal pair j while in this country might well be| practically confined to the lines of Canâ€"| ada‘s publicly owned railroad systaem,| the C.N.R. We see no good reason why j the influence of C.P.R. shareholders, in | and out of parliament, should settle this matter in a manner prejudicial to | the great transportation system that]| the people of Canada have been comiâ€" | pelled to take over and operatse at a heavy deficit, which deficit can be part- ly attributed to unduly tender regard for the conflicting interests of prive t;e ‘ competxtoxs "We comse again to one of our pet subjects, that the construction of a istraight coastâ€"toâ€"coast national highâ€" way would be one of the most potent means of defence this country could Ilundertdke Is it altogether too much 'to expect that the government at Otâ€" tawa, possibly awakened more than ever to the threat of impending evenâ€". tualities â€"which this country could not escape from, will examine this subject from new anzles and decide at the apâ€" proaching session of parliament that ccmpletion of the transâ€"Canada highâ€" Royal Vigit to‘ Canada Should Include the North Land. way should not be longer delayed for any reason whatever? In that case, construction could ‘be actively under way from wests of Hearst before the king and queen arrived for their visit. and should they then traverse this secâ€" tion, the attention of the whole empire â€"indeed the whole worldâ€"would be strikingly focussed on a great project plainly calculated to make the defence of the empire more securs. The many invaluable uses of this national highâ€" way in promoting our national unity and economic development in times of peace would not be overlooked either. At the same time, the full passenger and mail services of the transâ€"Canada airâ€" ways over the same route should by that time be in full operation, affordiag a further object lesson on the matked improvement of rapid communication and transportation between Britain and "Aimost every part of Canada will at once be passing resolutions about the forthcoming royal visit, and trying to have their own section included in ‘he itinerary and functions to be arran ;ed. The voice of the North may not Je heard very plainly in all the hubbun; nevertheless, we think it would be worlii while for our public bodies to record themselves promptly along these lines, and ask their representatives to do what they can to have King George and Gueen FHlizabeth honour us by com.ng this way. It will be the duty of the C. Houston Advises Drilling and Shaft ing. More Sinkâ€" Ottawa cabinet to iron out all these importunities: and who knows but wnat they might recognize the weighty logic of the many arguments which can be adduced in favour of a Northern swing of the roval entourage?" Considers Increase in Air Mail Rate is Unfair An editorial article in The Northern Miner last week says:â€" "Latest example of the thoughtlessâ€" ness that sometimes zcreeps into gover1iâ€" mental ngulations is contained 1in the revised air positage rate for second class matter to and from a‘lengthy list of remote points in Ontario, Quebec, Alâ€" berta, Saskatchewan, British Columbhbia and North West Territories. "Under the new regulations air postâ€" agr rates on second class matter, which includes newspapers. periodicals and practically every kind of communicaâ€" tion outside personal correspondence, is raised from four cents per Ib, toâ€" 12 cents per lb., the change to be effective immediately. As an illustration of how the new schedule operates the expense of mailing 52 issues of The Northern Miner to Red Lake would be in the neighborhood of $2.25, to Fort Smith $5.60, to Gordon Lake, Eldorado and Yellowknife, $13.10, Coppermine $22.40 and Aklavik $26.20. To mail one copy of the Annual Number of The Northern Miner to Aklavik would cost about $2.25. The rate on a daily newspaper naturally would be even more prohibiâ€" tive., _ â€" Houston, Tex.
