Timmins with ap- proximately 25.000 people is the headquarters for "D” Company of the Algonquin Regiment. Thi. Company draws its officers and men from Tim- thins, Schumacherand South Porcupine, each 01 the latter two towns having a population of ap- proximately 5,000. The district around the three towns will have a population of perhaps another ten thousand people. Thus there is a total popu- Jatlon of approximately 45,000 to be served by the prOposed new armoury. Despite the most dis- couraging handicaps “D" Company of the Algon- quin Rifles has continued here during the years. In recent years the local militia company has made progress despite all drawbacks. thanks. largely, to the interest and devotion of the officers incharge. Any thoughful person will realize the; need for such a nucleus of defence in these days‘ of world trouble. The smallness of the world has been very strikingly proved in recent years. No longer is there distance or isolation to assure safe- ' tytor any people. There must be defence from the aggressor nations. On account of the gold mining industry the North needs defence even more than other parts of the country. Undoubt- edly in case of any trouble all the people of the North would rally to defence. but there is surely necessity for a nucleus. a rally-place. an organiz- ation that needs only to be extended. This is the purpose of the militia. However. it serves other notable purposes. It gives a wholesome centre where young men may gather and train. learn discipline, improve their health. and while finding congenial associations. develop character and strength and public service.
