"So far is plans are formulated at present, they would include the takingâ€"over from the Abitibi Power and Paper Co. of the Island FPalls power, the acquiring by the Hydro Commission of the Canada Northern Power Corporatic»a plans in this part of the North Land, and the transmission of power from the Island people. The Rev. J. D. Parks directed the production, and he was certainly to be complimented cn the success of the play. There was a good attendance and a very heppy time at the evening meetâ€" ing Of the Kiwanis Club in the Emâ€" pire Hotel ten years ago, the pro:ramme being a particularly attractive one. President W.

The transmission from TIsland Falls to Sudâ€" bury by way of Tmmins would appear to ‘be a practical plan. When the Isâ€" land Falls plant was first established the intention was to bring the power to Timmins for use here in mines and all plans were made with that end in view. The sale of the equipment to the Abitibi Power and Paper Co. alterâ€" ed the situation, of course, but at the same time it is easy to see that the idea of power from Island Falls to Sudbury is only an extension of the original scheme amd there should be no serious difficulty in the Hydroâ€" Electric following out the method with success and economy. In taking over the existing electric power companies in this part of the North Land the Hyâ€" dro would be‘ acquiring now power sources sufficient to amply provids for the territory concerned.
