In regard to the meeting call-ed to discuss the prcpcsed community hall, The Advance of March 5th. carrisd :1 full-page announcement of the meet- ing together with editorial comment in support of the proposal. The meeting crowded the town hall to more tltan capacity. There were over forty rc- prescntatives of various interests pres- ent. delegates being directly deputed for the occasion by the various mines. the town council. the fire brigade. the board of trade. the several churches. all the. societies in town, the Miners‘ Un- ion, the Ratepayers' Association, t .«2 Jewish Society. the Italian Society. the Great War Veterans‘ Association. etc. On mot-ion cf Rev.

Brigham. gen- eral manager of Lh’: Hollingcr. Twenty years ago the Timmins town council endorsed the proposal for a new judicial district. Mr. J. A. De- vaney. barrister, addressed the camel briefly in the matter. He referred t) the 105 of time and money entailed through having to travel to Haileybury (or legal business, and he showed how the enablishment of a new judicial dis- trict would be a benefit to the people. Mr. T. 1“. King addressed the council on behalf of the Ontario Billiard As- sociation, which association was form- ed. he said. for the protection of the owners of billiard rooms. and was cs- pzcially desirous of having all these rooms maintained in a high standard that would keep billiards popular and respected. He asked for the co-opera- tion of the council and this was prom- ised. The mayor promised that no licenses would 'be granted by. the town unless the applicants appeared worthy and proper. The appointment of a constable to take the place of Con-1 stable Burke, who died from influenza, created considerable discussion. Coun- cillors Newton and Brazeau thought the town had a large enough proportion of French-speaking people that a French- speaking officer was desirable. The matter was left in the hands of the police committee to decide. “There were iive applications for the position. Fire destroyed all the camp build- ings at the Gold Lake property in Delâ€" oro on March 7th. 1919. entailing a loss of several thousand dollars. Mr. John Jones. the manager of the property. told The Advance that it was impossible to discover the cause of the fire or where it originated. The fact that the powder house was among the first 01' the build- ings to take fire. and that there were a number of explosions resulting, made it impossible to get near enough with safety to investigate aft:r the fire was first discovered. The danger from the 1 explosives also prevented any successful ' fightin;7 of the fire. All the camp! buildings were destroyed before the fire eventually burned itself out. In The Advance of March 12th. 1919. ret'erence was made to the fact that the Hollinger intended to build a club z * '*"""""7 {Twenty Years Agof PAGE 811 From The Porcupine Advance Fvlm Schmchet Phone 725 Order Your Coal N“W From Fogg’s John W.

The funeral was an unusually large and impressive one. a number of prominent men. ii educational lines in the North attending the ftmeral, as well as distinguished representatives of the Masonic Order. The pupils of the public school, in charge of Miss Inglis. the school board. town council and oth- er public bodies attended the funeral. There was a. profusion of beautiful flor- al tributes. The funeral services here were in charge of War. Mast-er H. Webb. of Golden Beaver Lodge, AF. AM. At New Liskeard the train was met \by a large number of the people of that town, incltding the school board. the teachers, the Boy Scouts. the Girl Guides. and representatives of the Roy- al Arch- Masons. the Canadian Forest- ers. the Presbyterian Chtu'ch. and oth- ers. pril' big fra wa It was the sad duty of The Advance in its issue of March 12, 1919. to report the death of Mr. D. A. Hogarth, prin- cipal of Timmins public school, and one of the Nmth Land 3 finest citizens. “In evexy sense of the woxd," said The Ad- Smith. Councillor DeFeu. R. J. Jemmett. Chief Harland. G. A. Macdonald. Mr. Staples. of the G.W.V.A.. and Messrs. King and McKinncn. of the Miners' Union. All were agreed on the need for a recreational centre on the style of the Y.M.C.A. but of non-eectarim character. The idea was to combine the idea of a community building with that of a war memorial. Mr. Brigham made warning reference to the inflated methads of finance during war years, and suggested that it would not be easy to finance big things for a few years. He suggested a committee to determine exactly what was disired. the cost. and and the feasibility of the plans and financing. On motion of Mr. Long- more. seconded by Chief Borlanti, Messrs. Geo. A. Smith. R. J. J-emmcn and J. W. Reed were appointed a com- mitt-2e to select a llrger committee to draft a definite proposal and see to its practicability. Unforunately this com- mittee of three did not follow up the matter and the question was eventually allowed to pass. The mzeting referred- to above was probably the most repre- sentative and enthusiastic gathering ever coming together in Timmins up to that time for any community purpose. and it always appeared to The Advance that it was regretabie that nothing came of its discussions, study and con- sideration. n 11 e from | \‘1 .‘11 111' . and cam-e from there Liskeard where he was 1917. in September of coming to Timmine as school here.
