In regard to the Sigma the general manager‘s reâ€" port includes the following: "It is anâ€" ticipated that the advances made by this company (the Dome) and by the Readâ€"Authicr Mine to Sigma Mines will be cleared off before July 1st, 1939. From that tims on, sixty per cent. of the profit realized will eventually find its way in the treasury of this comâ€" pany."

This figure includes 890,â€" '000 tons of broken ore." The g:neral manager‘s report gives in detail the underground operations of the mine, as well as full mill statistics and other information. Reference is also made to some prospecting for the Dome at Yellowknife. Work on claims in that area have brought some enâ€" couraging results but nothing decisive. Pension Plan In refesnce to the Dome Pension Plan, the general manager says: "At the last annual meeting th: shareholders authorized the putting inâ€" to effect of a pension plan for our emâ€" ployees.. This plan became effective on August 1st, 1938, and is now in full operation. Over ninety per cent. of our employess have joined the plan. Six of our employees were placed on penâ€" sion at once and several more are due their pensions very shortly." "All costs of pensions for services prior to the date of the inception of the plan are borne by the company. The costs of pensions for current services are contributed to by the employees and by the company. The contributions of the employsees and of the company are placed in a trust fund which is adâ€" ministered by Trustees who will always be the president, the general manager, and three directors of this company. The company had the benefit of the services of a competent actaury, Mr. H. H. Wolfenden, throughout the formâ€" ing of this plan and everything has been don to place the plan on a sound actuarial basis so that our employees‘ pensions will be properly safegzuarded."

Sweet Mysâ€" tery of life" and "Sympathy" were very well rendered, and the singing of these selection showed that they were dear to the heart of every listener. "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life," by the chorus. "Fierce Flames are Burning," which presented Miss Lillian Hale as soloist, was very well carried through. This is a difficult part of "Il Trovatore" telling the storvy of the gypsy who was burnt at the stake.. Her daughter sings of this unhappy happening and vows revenge upon those who took the life of her mother. Miss Hale capably portrayed the part of the griefâ€"striken girl, and passionately sang the song that is one of the main portions of the great opera. The following is the programme in full: "Anvil Chorus" and "Fierce Flames Are Burning" (Il Trovatore), by the chorus, with Miss Lillian Hale as soâ€" loist. Each and every artist who took part in the performance had exceptional musical ability, and the audience was very appreciative of this fact. Mrs. P. H. Carson, who is one of the bestâ€" known and most popular of talented solosits in the camp. again brought added glory to a great event, and the ladies‘ chorus, Misses Cora Amadio, Bernice McGrath, Rita Wiggins, Kathâ€" leen Hale and Lillian Hale, and Myrs. Dorothy Mascioli, was one of the specâ€" ial features of the occasion. Mr. Chas. Roberts, and Mr. Percy Harris who take part in many of the musical preâ€" sentations in this district, were very effective and their singing brought much pleasure to the event.

The value of its production to date has been over $98,000,000.00. For many years it has maintained a daily production of 1,500 tons of ore and it has given steady employment to from 700 to 800 men." "The population of Porcupine Camp is approximately 45,000. "The schools, the churches, the hosâ€" pitals and the recreational facilities of the Porcupine Camp compare favourâ€" ably with those to be found in any community of its size. "The mines of Porcupine Camp proâ€" duce over 13.000 tons of ore daily. "Ore values in the Porcupine Camp have now ibeen proven to depths of over a mile. "After twentyâ€"six years of steady operation the annual production of Porcupine Camp is still increasing. "The ten producing mines of Poreuâ€" pine Camp meet an annual payroll of approximately $12,000,000 and furnish steady employment to about 8,000 emâ€" plovees. "Since the invitation repreduced on the opposite page was issued the total value of the production of Porcupine Camp has exceeded $531,000,000. "The value of the prosent annual production of Porcupine Camp is close to $44,000,000. "After twentyâ€"six years of steady operation the annual production of Porcupine Camp is still increasing.

The leaders attend the classes, and return to their district to teach the members of the Instituts ‘the beneficial knowledge which they | have acquired. ' In outlining the or:anization, Mrs. Lang stated that members comprise a branch, branches comprise a district, and delegates from the districts comâ€" prise the department. The annual convention is usually held in Septemâ€" ber, each branch sending one delegate, and each district sending two delegates. The area between Hearst and Temisâ€" kaming holds three districts, Cochrane, South Temiskaming and Centre Tem‘sâ€" kaming. These districts elect a federal representative to the Federal board which meets in Toronto about the time of the Annual Winter Fair. These deleâ€" gates bring suggestions to the annual meetina from the branches and disâ€" tricts, and sometimes these resolutions may be forwarded to the Parliament. As an example of this Mrs. Lang pointâ€" ed out that the Women‘s Institute had !forwm‘d‘:d the resolution which allows i pupils who have made a good record on ,thcir year‘s work to leave the lower school without trying the entrance exâ€" aminations. Two auditorsâ€"Mrs. George Ross and Mrs. W. Crispen. Press Secretaryâ€"Mrs. Graham. By a majority vote, the branch was named "The Golden Star Branch of the Women‘s Institute", and it was decidâ€" ed that meetings would be held every third Wednesday of the month at 2.30 o‘clock. Members will endeavour to secure the Hollinger Recreation hall as a meeting place. "When Other Hearts and Other Lips" (Maritana), by Mr. Chas. Roberts "Sympathy‘‘ (Firefly) by the chorus. "The Heart Bowed Down" by Mr. Percy Harris "Gypsy Queen," by the ladies chorus "Morning" (Aley Speaks), by the chorus. "In the Gypsy Life You Read" (Bohemian Girl). by the chorus. During the evening it was announced that the Schubert Choral Society would present, some time in the fall, "Pirâ€" ates of Penzance," in costume. This is a difficult presentation, but will unâ€" doubtedly be admirably carried out by the members whose ability in musical work is outstanding. The executive of the Schubert Chorâ€" al Society is as follows: Honorary President, Dr. Kelly; Honorary viceâ€" president, Mrs. F. Graham; Secretary, Miss Edith Richardson; Treasurer, Miss Rita Wiggins; Business Manager, Mr. C. Newell. committee, Miss Berâ€" nice McGrath, Mrs. Mascioli, Mr. Cyâ€" ril Hale and Mr. Stuart McKinnon. Among the work which is studied by the branches are education, home nursâ€" ing, health and child welfare, home economics, historical relations, legislaâ€" tion, civic resolutions, Canadianization, community activity and relief. Mrs. Lothian added to this that the motto of the organization is "For Home and Country," and the members work in all fields for the betterment of the living conditions of humanity. The gathering was practically unaniâ€" mously in favour of forming a branch of the Institute in Timmins. and elecâ€" tions of officers resulted as follows:â€" 1st viceâ€"presidentâ€"Mrs. Rosert Grey by acclamation. Secretaryâ€"treasurerâ€"Mrs. G. Kirk. District Directorâ€"Mrs. F..Charbonâ€" neau, by acclamation. Three Branch Directorsâ€"Mrs. C. Briggs, Mrs. Graham and Mrs: A. Jackâ€" son.

The Women‘s Institute is nonâ€"parâ€" tisan, although the members study poliâ€" tics. Its purpose is the promotion of better living, and is therefore an orâ€" ganization for homemakers. Each branch has its own officers, and each branch may send a delegate to the annual meeting while the district sends a d»legate to the convention. The branches keep in touch with one anâ€" other, and learn what has been accomâ€" plished by women in other districts. The headquarters or department coâ€" opsrate with each branch, and each branch coâ€"operates with the departâ€" meont. (Continued from Page One) fred Watlt, formerly of British Columâ€" bia.
