Empire Block Phone 1580 Timmins Ontario ~14â€"28 .012 12â€"8â€"38 World Traveller Pays Brief Visit to Timmins Specially Interested in the Mines. Miss Laura Stocks, of Worcestershire, England, has Many "Relatives," All Over the World on Account of Her Interest in Students in England. On a tour of the world, Miss Laura Stocks was a Timmins visitor over the weekâ€"end. Miss Stocks arrived in Timâ€" mins on Friday to visit Mrs. C. Sulliâ€" van,. 158 Spmruce St. N., and remained here until Monday. She visited the mines and other points of interest in the town and district. Questioned by The Advarce reporter about her jourâ€" ney, Miss Stocks said that this was her first trip to Timmins, but her second time in Canada. Miss Stocks first visited Canada in 1929, when she met Mrs. Sullivan while travelling on the Great Lakes. When she asked the CP.R. representaâ€" tive to arrange a tour of Canada for her. she especially mentioned that she wanted to visit Timmins and stay with Mrs. Sullivan who had been her guest at her hom» in Droitwich, Worcesterâ€" shire, England, in 1931. "I like Timmins very much," said Miss Stocks to The Advance reporter, "and I‘m especially interested in the mines. We have spent a good deal of time at the mines, and I have learned a great deal. It is all new to me, and differen‘} from anything I have ever seen. I was particularly interested in assaying at the mines, and although we did not go underground there was much to see."‘ Later Miss Stocks told the reporter that she found both the American and the Canadian people very hospitable, and had enjoyed this portion of her tour very miuch. In England Miss Stocks is one of the hostesses in a plan developed by Lady Francis to entertain students whose Lomes are not in England. These studâ€" ents would have nowhere to go durâ€" ing the vacation time if it were not for this plan, which provides a beauâ€" tiful home where other students gathâ€" er, and where all the great days are celebrated as they would be at homs. Many of these students have been adâ€" opted by Miss Stocks as her nephews and nieces, and to them she is known as "Auntie Loll." Miss Stocks left England on October saiting on ~Normandie;â€" arrived in New York on October 10th. There she visited one of her adopted nieces and conducted a broadcast on the Martha Dean Hour on Wednesday, October 19. She talked about her home, and the plan by which students have come to know it as "home." In telling Ths Advance about the plan, Miss Stocks said, "It‘s just a country home, miles from anywhere,‘ but this is probably the reason why so many students away from home have learned to love "Auntie Loll" and her home. From New York Miss Stocks travelled | Lo Washington. Montreal, and Tim-: mins, visiting the quintuplets at Calâ€". lander. She expressed her regret at. not beinz able to include St. John‘s, New Brunswick, in her tour, as St. John‘s is the home of another of her adopted nisces. "The next time, perâ€" haps," she added. After leaving Timmins Miss Stocks will visit Winnipeg, Banff, and Vanâ€" couver, Vanceuver is the home of het brother, Mr. Fred Stocks, one of the few relatives that Miss Stock has not adopted. In British Columbia she will see the Okaragan Valley, and will sail from Vancouver to Honolulu, and Fiji, on her way to New Zealand and Ausâ€" tralia, where "Auntie Loll" has many nephews and nisces. _ Sidney, Melâ€" bourne. Tasmania, â€"Adelaide, Perth, Cape Town (where she will visit her cousin, u;e Archbishop of Cape Town), Durban. Pretoria, Johannesburg, Womâ€" bassa and Narobi are other cities that are included on the tour. In all, Miss Stocks will be back home within ten months, returning by way of the Mediâ€" terranean Sea. Miss Stocks has travelled a great deal, making her first trip to the continent when a very young girl. She has visitâ€" ed South Africa and Malta, and has been a frequent visitor to Europran countries. When in South Africa in 1914, she was called back to England to nurse during the war years, but had much difficulty in returning to Great Britain, finally having to return by way of the westorn coast, instead of the eastern coast as had been planned. Published at Timmins, Ont., Canada. Every MONDAY and THURSDAY "Last year I flew to Paris," said Miss Stocks, "to visit an adopted niece. She is a Frenchâ€"Canadian girl, and is in Paris writing French zoems." Miss Stocks has only had four Canadian students at her home, the majority of the students being from New Zealand and Australia. In conclusion, Miss Stocks said she was sure that were the King and Queen to visit Canada they would enâ€" joy their tour. "They will like Canâ€" ada and the Canadian peop‘e, and they are such friendly people that they can‘t help but enjoy a trip to the Dominion."

The possibility is seen of an extensive deâ€" velopment of the deposits. Previous efforts have bn made to prove the commercial value of this lignite but difficulty has been encountered in the distance from available markets and corsequent cost of transporation. This sittmation is som:what improved by the development of the mining industry of Northern Ontario and Q@uebec. In that connection it is noted that lignite fuel of Western Canada is carried hunâ€" dradss of miles by train. In the same connection it is also pointed but that there are other lignite deposits in Ontâ€" ario, particularly near Hearst, which is the northern terminus and connectâ€" ing point beiween the Transcontiental Railway and the Algoma Central, runâ€" ning north from Sault Ste.

Just think when you are there and say to yourself, "there are several monsier gold mines not far from me and just north a little piece and scastward also." Rigsht at the corâ€" ners of those four townships there is asbestos, iron, quaritz, and a dozen other formations, and on the shore of Hutt Lake there is the saimse formation as on the .shorg of Porcupine Lake at ‘the Porcupine Lakée Gol "NMine.

Panes to take you, or you can canoe Why go a thousand miles away to look for gold when some of the world‘s greatest gold mines are on the edge of the area I speak of and gold has been found all around there? So there must be big mines down there! Prospect that area and help get a road from Timmins to Sudbury. Go up on Vipond Hill and you can see a lot of this area that has proven to have gold, silver, copper, iron, asbestas, platinum and I believe its the best place to look for radium.
