Kirkland Lake, March 9.â€"(Special to The Advance)â€"Veterans of the Greet War living in the Temiskaming and Cochrane districts are being invited io attend a reunion of exâ€"servicemen scheduled to be held here at the Domâ€" inion Day weekâ€"end, according to a decision reached when the committee from the various posts of the Canadian Legion in Zone 20 met to discuss the matter further early this week. Witn Comrade William Ramsay as its chairâ€" man, a committee from the Kirkland Lake post will make the necessary arâ€" rangements for the gathering. Tentative plans call for Saturday, July 1. to be a day of sports and enâ€" tertainments, and on the Sunday a drumhead service will be held, at which Rev. Captain Sydney Lambert, chapâ€" lain of Christie Street Hospital in Torâ€" onto, will preach. An invitation to atâ€" tend this service will be extended also to Rev. Father John R. O‘Gorman., now of Timmins, but who was in Cobalt when he went overseas as chaplain with a Canadian unit, and to other clergy. _ The idea of holding a reunion during the coming summer has been under consideration for some time by the difâ€" ferent posts of Zore 20, which compr‘sâ€" es the district from Cobalt to Kirkâ€" land Lake and Larder Lake, and of which Comrade J. H. Sumbler, reeve of Dymond township, is president. All roâ€" to Rev. ] of when he a Canad _ The idea of hol the coming sum consideration for ferent posts of Zo¢ Capt. Sidney Lambert to Preach at Drumhead Serâ€" vice on July 2, at Kirkâ€" land Lake. Reunion of Veterans Of North on July 1st The balance of Dr. Derry‘s speech was largely taken up with consideration of the evils of Communism. A full reâ€" port will be found in an article elseâ€" where in this issue. Amoing the localities which would benefit by the increase, said the speakâ€" er, would be this northern mining area. Timmins would be better off. Dr. Derry was introduced to the large audignce in the Empire Theatte by Philip Phelan, State Deputy of the Knights of Columbus for Ontario. Nations of the four power pact had about 200 billion dollars in gold. In orâ€" der to get more for each ounce of gold they would cause the price of gold in America to be raised to a figure estiâ€" mated by Dr. Derry at $41.24. In order to get the business from the nations America would be agreeable to having the price raised. However the United States would not lend money unless payments were made on war debts owing her. Then the United States raised the price of gold to $27 and Canada followâ€" ed. Mongy barons in the sterling block immediately jumped their price to $35. President Roosevelt was forced to folâ€" low and Canada, under the sam> tary system as the United States, also raised to $35. At the present time gold in the sterling block had been increased to $47. Why America did not follow Dr. Derry did not know. In any cvent the nations who were arming at the present time, including Great Britain, would soon exhaust their money reserves. They would have to borrow from the United States. Dr. Derry said that he believed the powers would be assisted by upheavals of Fussians in their own country. Disâ€" gruntled and dissatisfied with the presâ€" ent burdensome government which was crushing the life out of them they would assist by internal revolution against it as soon as the first move was madse. Two startling prophecies were made by Dr. George Derry, speakâ€" ing under the auspices of the K. of C. at the New Empire theatre on Tuesday night on the subject "Can Democracy Endure." The first was that in the next Tew years, as soon as Grceoat Britain has comp‘leted her naval expansion proâ€" gramme, she will join the other nations of the four power pact, Germany, France and Italy in a campaign to liberate the Russian people from the yoke of the Soviet government. The other was that the price of gold will rise in the next few years to over $40 an ounce. The Four Power Pact was, in reality, a military alliance, said the speaker. All four participating powers realized the menace of Communism and its growth in their own nations and were deterâ€" mined to stamp it out at its source. To that end they would make war on Russia. THURSDAY, MARH OTH, 1930 Dr. Derry Says Four Power Pact is a Military Alliance Aimed at Soviet. Nations of Pact Will Soon Exhaust Reserves and Force Price of Gold Up to Get More for Their Money.

William Pitt (about 1800): "There is secarcely anything around us but ruin and despair." A firm of ‘British stockholders disâ€" gusted at all the pessimistic utterances of recent timgs, some time ago issued a circular in which they incorporated the blue ruin talk of years ago. Famâ€" ous names in history are quoted as deâ€" spairing of the life even of Britain. The Empire has survived all~. these croaking remarks of the years gone by and will no doubt be alive to laugh at the pessimists of the present time. Here are some of the sad sayings of noted men of the last century, as quoted by the circular:â€" Mr. Provencher reported a very symâ€" pathetic attitude towards prospectors and their problems by the Premier, the Minister of Mines, the registrar of the Security Frauds Commission and A. O. Dufresne, director of the Bureau of Mines. To Give Him Cash The new proposition, if clearly unâ€" derstood, would appear to provide for the payment to the prospector of 5 per cent. in cash, of the proceeds of the sale of treasury stock, which would enable the prospector to "carry on." Under existing conditions, with the stock pooled and in escrow until the mine goes into production, the prosâ€" pector has a®solutely nothinz with which to continue his activities. Itf amounts to killing the root of the inâ€" dustry, which would eventually kill the industry itself. A resolution was passed at the meetâ€" ing and forwarded to Mr. Routhier, to the effect that the Association apâ€" proves the idea that a mining company pay 5 per cent. of the proceeds of the sale of the treasury stock to the prosâ€" pector who sells the claims. At the same time a request for a more amplified explanation of the praâ€" position was requested. As understood, this arrangement would not affect the prospector‘s pooled shares or his ability to obtain blocks of pooled shares as part payment.

However, the first newspaper of which we are historically certain, was the Acta Publica, in the form of clay tablets, beâ€" gun by Julius Caesar in 58 B.C. Taking together theseâ€"two undertakâ€" ings to preserve wild fowl about James Bay and on the prairies, there is hope that Canada may remain as the sumâ€" mer home of countless wild geese and ducks. And that prospect will ke weiâ€" comed by lovers of nature. Facts and Near Facts About Some Newspapers (From Globe and Mail) Soon the migrating wild fowl will be on the wing again, flying in orderly formation to their nesting places in the North. It is timely to note what is being done toward conserving this wild life, sadly depleted of late years because of changing conditions and the | activity of hunters. has a representative in ‘Canada, who reports that there have been estabished by lease three large, wollwatered doukâ€" breeding sanctuaries in the West:; aiso that this spring three larger areas of abandoned farm land will have been prepared, comprising, according to The New York Herald Tribune, some 7682,000 acres of marshes and lakes scatterel over the provinces of Alberta, Saskatâ€" chewan and Manitoba. "And this is only a beginning." It is claimed that through the proâ€" tective activities of this nonâ€"profit orâ€" ganization of American sportsmen wild ducks increased by approximately 1,â€" 500,000 last year, with an expected inâ€" crease of 2,500,000 this year. Thus the efforts of sportsmen themselves are more effective than official They claim that "complicated and often useless restrictions would not solve the duck supply." Regarding the protection of wild ducks in the Western Provinces there comes irom New York announcement of the activities of Ducks Unlim‘ted, Inc. This organization of sportsmen The James Bay district is the chief sumimer resort of wild geese and ducks, though the latter also favour marshy areas in the Western Provinces. In both these districts definite steps jhnave been taken to protect these timid birds® Protect them from the encroachmenis of civilization and ruthless onslaughts by the gunmen. Last fall it was announced a section of the James Bay region would be proclaimed as a sanctuary for geese and ducks, the arga to be under proâ€" tection of the Royal Canadian Mounter Police. If given reasonable protecticn wild fowl will increase and mulitiply along the rugged shores of James Bay. This is their chosen summer habitat. sportsmen know that if driven from the region there is nowhere else thcy may go where wild rice, their chisf food, may be found. It was realized that for these migrants it was Jam:os Bay or virtual extinction. Hence the official action.
