Amount of the damage could not be accurately esfimanecl today. Insurance adjusters are working on the ruin and will probably be able to report in the near future. Members of the staff of the Timmins Daily Press informed The Advance to- day that arrangements have been made with the North Bay Nugget to. print The staff of the radio station im- mediateiyset. to work to set up a temporary broadcasting studio in the Sky Bioék. By use of temporary equip- ment and by working all last. night they managed to get things in shape and hope to be back on the air tonight. Around noon the heroic efforts of the firemen began to get, the blaze under control and by two-thirty in the afternoon the charred roofless build- ing and its twisted contents were only smouldering. The basement, was full of wa Ler. Two firemen were injured in the bank. against the fire. They were John McKinnon. who had the ligaments of one leg mm, and Frank Wallingford. who strained his hand when he fell. Many other members of the Depart- menL were sickened temporarily by the smoke.

If Hitler was outraged by the scandal caused when an irate husband attacked Goebbels he did not show it. Goebbels is reputed to be closer to the Feuhrer than he ever has been.

Nineteen wives of fifteen vears of age had children while 72 \iives oi SiXLfPll were similarly blessed Average number of employees during 1938 was 74.953 as compared with 79,471 in 1937. Decrease was said due to re- duced traffic on lines. As may be seen the railway is losing moneyâ€"~losing heavily even for a gov- ernment institution. However, no one seems to worry a great deal about, it. A‘fter all it all comes out of Mr. and Mrs. John Public and they very rarely protest. They are so used to being bled that, they do not even take an interest. in the proceedings any more. Canadian National Railway debt for 1938 was $54,315,196, an increase of close to $12,000.000 over the previous year. The increase (was about $6,000,000 worth due to an increase in wages. chwever‘ the wage increases affected only the unit cost of labour. In the general picture they were more than offset, by a decrease of more than five and a half per cent in the average number employed. enable Lhe average householder to heat his home for a winter for sixty-five cents.

If your Pack is planning to enter the 2nd Wolf Cub ‘Palava. to be held on June 24th near Tim-mins, then it's high time you start- ed to collect feathers for your Indian head-dress. Feat-hers from four to seven inches will be needed and you'll want a lot of them. Your Akela will be getting full instructions within the next few weeks, but it. will keep you busy preparing to get. ready in time. So start now and collect feathers. Send a sixer delegation up to a trool) meeting some night and ask them to collect for you tOO. Troops and Packs should be arrang- ing for members of their groups to attend their own churches in a body on April the 23rd. That is St. George‘s Day. And as you all know St. George is the patron saint of Scouting. For years this has been an annual aetivity of the St. Matthew's Group. Let‘s see others go to their churches that day I expect that many of you read about the splendid display that the 7th Group put on for their sponsors, the Canadian Legion recently. Now. while I write this, that troop is out with the 5th (Kiwanis Ti'OOp) at Barber's Bay offi- cially opening the Kiwanis Boys Camp for another season’s activities. If you make them conform strictly to this, your pride in looking at, your Scouts or Cubs when they line up at your meeting will prove to be contag- ious. Your Scouts will become proud, too, of belonging to the neatest Patrol in the Troop and they will do their best to wear the uniform right and keep it in order. Show your pride in your uniform by making up your mind either to wear it or not, to wear it. Don't make any half-way between. I: is a case of ": wear. or not ‘to wear. that is the quesâ€" tion." to misquote Shakespeare. And if you are a Patrol Leader or Sixer insist that your boys wear their uniforms the only correct way. one one fort Make them understand that, there is only one way of tying your neckerchief, one way of wearing the Patrol knot, one color of stockings to wear. and so A boy gets into the uniform, and immediateiy it does something to him.
