wW. Rsed, T. F. King, Mayor McInnis, A.â€"F. Brigham, D. Ostrosser. The elections were all by acclamation. Short addresses were made by all the offiâ€" cers elected. H. C. McDonald, managâ€" er of the Imperial bank here, referred to his connection for two yars with the board as secretary, and suggested that the trouble in connection with the board‘s work was the lack of general interest by the business men as a whole and the failure to attend the orâ€" dinary meetings. The new secretary, D. W. O‘Sullivan, confessed that though he had paid* his membership for two years this was the first meeting he had ever attended. Mr. Boivin was elect>d the represontative for the Timmins board of trade at the Boostâ€"theâ€"North converftion to be held in North Bay the week of Jan. 2ist, 1920. Dr. Mcâ€" Innis was also a delegate to this moetâ€" ing as mayor of Timmins. J.P.

J. W. Reed, president of the boird of trade for 1919, presided for the event. The report of the secreâ€" taryâ€"troasurr, H. C. McDonald, manâ€"; ager of the 1mperial Bank, showed that | there were 57 members in the board of_ trade in 1919 and that there was a ; balance of $316.02 on hand. In a sumâ€" mary of the work of the board the preâ€" sident referred to the good efforts of | the organization in securing the estabâ€" lishment at Timm‘ns of a Government employment office, the appropriation made by‘ the Ontario Government for a wagon road from Porcupine to Porâ€" quis Junction, and other matters dealt with by the board of trade. Mr. Reed explained that delegatss had been sent to Ottawa regarding a customs office at Timmins. Also that efforts had been made to have a Divison Court ofâ€" fice here. The election of officers for the 1820 bsard of trade was made at the banquet mseting as follows:â€"preâ€" sident, R. J. Jemmett; honorary preâ€" sident, J. W. Fogg; viceâ€"president, H. ¢ C.

During the eveâ€" ming there were muchâ€"appreciated solos given by Messrs W. R. Dodge, J. K. Mcore and Jas. Geils A monologue by R. F. Argleés made a big hit, as did also his impremptu speech on hypctism and his funny little song about the lock of hair that wound up in the soup. The gathening broke up in the early morning with the singing of "Auld Lang Syne" and "God Save the King." did also hypctism about the in the sou in the earl stationing here of a Government minâ€" ing enginger as advantages to ke solicited from the Governâ€" ment. A. F. Brigham, in responding to the toast to the mines, said that the mines had put Timmins on the map and it was now up to the people to keep the town on the map. Other speakers at the banquet included: R. J. Jemmett, L. S. Newton, D. Ostrosser, T. F. King, D. Laprairie, P. Dougall, F. Lamb, Rev. J. D. Parks, Rev. R. S. to the river. Dr. McInnis suggested the electrification of the T. °N.

Among the local and personal notes in The Northern Tribune of Kapuskasâ€" ing last week was the following paraâ€" graph of general interest:â€""Returning to live with their father hoere after the recent death of their mother in Luton, Eng., with whom they had lived for the past five years, Cecilia and Richard Flannigan made a safe journey across the Atlantic and reached Kapuskasing last Wednesday. Just out of port their ship coilided with a treopship and had to turn back and stay in harbour for 18 days." Returned to Kapuskasing After Incidents on Trip The world in general shows a comâ€" plete reorganization of the systems of money and land distribution. A new age is dawning and the beginning of uriversal brotherhood will actually be out into practice. Hon, W. L. Mackenzise King, born December 17th, 1874, will enjoy a year of success. Late February and early March, close of June and July will bring a very favourable year. Italyâ€"Mussolini, born July 29th, 1883, will make unreasonable demands for territory and other concessions and will be prepared to go to war for them. He should listen to the Vatican. The Pope is an arbitrator. Russia will enjoy military victories. Stalin will have internal trouble. The women there, as elsewhere, will take over a certain amount of power. His end is drawing near. Hitler, born April 20th, 1889, will again change his course the last of January or the first part of February. Should he survive the summer, in Octoâ€" ber, 1840, he will have trouble with his coâ€"worker and engmy, Goering, born January 12th, 1893. It is to be hoped May and June, 1940, will not allow his own hand to take his life or that he meets assassination. April or May, 1941, will see his end. His Majesty King George VI, born December 14th, 1895, England will have a hard time till late 1941, when a turn will be made for the better. England will see her dominions beyond the seas expressing greater gratitude in . their fight for right over might. Changes in the British parliament will take place. Chamberlain must move on, while the sun rises for Anthony Eden and the Duke of Windsor. The year 1943 will see a new world taking shape with the Allies acclaiming aggression is to be no longer. Mother Shipton, of still older glory, this seer, or prophet, foretells the coming fate of nations as well as individuals. The Weyburn seer is known as "Paul the Seer," and apparently he sees plerkty.
