However, since the new library has been opened, you may find students chuckling to themselves over these amusing books. IDAY ASSEMBLY Friday Assembly was made â€" more interesting by the debate with South End, which was held in the hall Priday morning. Kathleen Conley and Floâ€" rerce Sharp represented the South Porcupme High School debating against Robéert Thompson and. Jotimnk koski. The subject of the debate was "Resolved that the Chain Store System is (Beneficial."‘ Both sides supported their opinions with spirit. Although the decision was very close we congratulate the South End on winning the debate. Jorma Kalliokoski, on the Timmins side, showed himself to be an able debater. In addition to this, Zoltan Molnar, an orchestra member, delighted us with a violin solo. Dr. Fox, President of Western University, then addressed the Assembly. Among the many points of interest in Dr. Fox‘s speech was his reference to the decrease in the numâ€" ber of universities in Germany since the rise of ‘Adolph Hitler. Dr. Fox also gave views and definitions of education. ‘ His humour and pleasing manner added to our appreciation of his ad- dress, . The Commercial diplomas were preâ€" sented by Mr. Langdon. In a brief address Mr. Langdon stressed the value Of practical thinking. A barber left a customer under the towels and ran down the block after hearing that Brown‘s house was on fire. After runâ€" ning a ‘block or so the barber stopped and said "What am I running for? My name isn‘t Brown." The Domestic Science diplomas were presented by Mr. Ostrosser; the Industrial diplomas by Mr. Harper, while High School diâ€" plomas were presented by Mr. Drew. Class Prophecies were given by Doris Glaister, Wm. Black and Ben Bauman; the Valedictory by Mary Stock; the Lamyp of Learning was given by Bessie Montgomery to Lena Orlando who re=â€" presented the graduates of next year. Alice in Wonderland should be read by every adult because of its wise parâ€" ables. The Cheshire cat once said to Alice "Know where you are going in life,." Dr. Fox‘s.address was punctuated with humour and was enjoyed by all. A short interlude followed the guest address, during which the orchestra supplied suitable music. The guest speaker, Dr. Fox, was inâ€" troduced by Dr. McClinton in a humor»â€" ous manner. Dr. Sherwosod Fox is President of Western University, Lonâ€" don, Ont. Dr. Fox rose and thanked Dr. McClinton for his flattering introâ€" duction. "One must have a definite aim in life" said Dr. Fox. He told a story from John Bunyan‘s Piligrim‘s Progress. Ignrcrance, a brisk young lad, went down a road paved with good intenâ€" tions, trying to take a short cut to the Celestial City. Unfortunately, there is no short cut to Learning, and Ignorance was rejected at the gate. Oks, among which are: The Runnerâ€"Ralph Connor The Flying Canoeâ€"J. E. Le Rossignal New Sports Booksâ€"Barnes Dollar Mr. A. J. Cousineau, Chairman of the High School Board, was chairman at the graduation exercises, After the chairman‘s remarks the school orchesâ€" tra played some selections from the music of CGilbert and Sullivan. Mr. Tanner rose and spoke briefly about the growth of the school and his apâ€" preciation of the new wing. He :n presented the Halperin Medal to Hecâ€" tor Perreault. The 1.0.D.E. Scholarâ€" ship was presented> to Franklin Macâ€" Namara by Mrs. Traver. Meyer Buvoâ€" vetsky won $1,050, in scholarships. Prizes were presented to Frenchâ€"speakâ€" ing students by Mr. A. DesRoches. Max Ryan and Franklin MacNamara played a yviolin duet which was appreciated by All. Prizes were presented to students the best posters for the Horâ€" ticuitural Exhibition, by Mrs. Kinkel. In her brief speech Mrs. Kinkel menâ€" tioned the coâ€"operation of Miss Briffet | with the Horticulitural Society. | Another school week has passed since our last meeting friend readet. The Commencement or Graduation proâ€" gramime was the most important event during the past week, but there are also fresh shorts news and school gossip. Tn Monday‘s Advancé: reference was made to the case of Nick Lulkowich charged with keeping liquor for sale. From the report it would appear that Mr. Lulkowich was arrested on his reâ€" turn to the house aftter James Sawosz had been taken by the police on a simtâ€" Arrest Not Made at the Residence of Accused Man _ "Well,". replied the boy, "It‘s all in the way you loock at it.

"Why Rastus," askâ€" ed the clergyman, "Don‘t you know it‘s a mortal sin to fish on the Lord‘s Day?" Mr. Fox‘s jokes were enjoyed imâ€" mensely by all of the students. One of them we will pass on to YOu;â€" You can‘t imagine how proud we were when Mr,. Tanner called us the most cosmopolitan body of students in Canâ€" ada. «We thought he meant that we were the best natured students in Canada.

Gaspick, of South Porcupine, has entered first vear Industrial. In the rush of last week our weekly speaker was not forgotten. Anna Svos spoke briefly on the news for the preâ€" vious week, THIS AND THAT T‘nursday morning the monotony of school work was broken by the ringing of the Assembly bell. For over an hour we had the pleasure of seeing moving pictures presented by The Canadian Institute of Mining. The title of the picture was "The Mining, Smelting and Refining of Copperâ€"Nickel Ores at Sudoury, Ontario‘"; made by the Interâ€" national Nickel Co. _ The next game for our local team will be on Friday when they move on to Kirkland Lake to show their abllity there. Last Monday, intermediate hockey took its hold in the T. H. V. The High School A Team played the B Team. On Tuesday, C Team battled with the D crew.

Mr. Luikowich says that this does him an injustice,‘as he returned from work at the mine to find Sawosz had been taken and went down to the police ofâ€" fice himself to find out about it. The police arrested him there on the charge, but he says that he has not been in any way concerned with illegal dealings in liquor and knew of nothing of that sort. The cases were adjoumed to next week. : | Employees said that the store was closed until 1.15 a.m. on Wednesday. After they got in and looted the store the burglars, on their way out, secured the lock by means of a nail so that no suspicion would be aroused. QOne hundred and forty dollars in cash and three hundred and fifty dolâ€" lars worth of stock was taken from Burke‘s Wilson avenue store on Wedâ€" nesday morning when burglars made entry to the store by breaking the lock on the front door. Close to $500 in Cash and Stock Taken at Burke‘s Dr. Hall and Mr. Nesbitt, of Toronto, were visitors to the camp early this week, presiding at the annual inspec tion of the St. John Ambulance Briâ€" gade which took place at the McIntyre Community Hall on Monday. The Timmins and Schumacher branches of the brigade, as well as members of the Police and Fire brigades, took part in the inspection. The King is not a politician, nor a puppet, nor. a ruler. He embodies in himself the majesty and the selfâ€"reâ€" spect that such a stupendous assozciaâ€" tion of peoples must visualize lest it dissolves through sheer ambiguity. St. John Ambulance Officials Here on Inspection Tour as "The Man of the Year." While other publications placed Adolf Hitler | as the foremost figure in 1938, the Post writer believed true greatness lies in morality,‘ and true worth is gauged by high character, This year, Josef Stalin has been variously upheld as the most \important figure of 1939. The Post believes that he, too, is a creature of darkness and a greater man of truer worth is the man of 1939. We offer you King George VI of England. We offer a man of impeccable deâ€" cency, a family man of worth and digâ€" nity, who treads daily the paths of duty with the gallantry and the grace of a true gentleman. To our readers, therefore, we comâ€" mend as "The Man of the Year" one who has upon him the responsibility of a tradition which is combatting the forces of evil, who is fulfilling a treâ€" mendous position of exalted influence for which he was not trained, excepting by nature.

McGrezor said that he knew Latour well; that he went to his room with his sister and her husband.. There were wearing their hats, There was nothing in the cupboards of the room other than tumblers, the police sergeant said. Latour at first gave a false name and then admitted his real one. He said that he had bought four cases of beer on the Saturâ€" day kefore, although there were only 14 pints left at that hour on Sunday morning. Latour â€" did not know the names of any of the persons in his room except two girls and they lived in the same building. Two men were sent to jail each for three months on liquor charges in two separate cases in police court on Tuesâ€" day afternoon. «Zerard Langlois pleadâ€" ed guilty to selling liquor and Alphonse Latour pleaded innocence but was conâ€" victed after a hearing.

Through a secretary, even the King acmitted that he had no idea of the authorship of the quotation. He saw it in a letter to "The Times" at the beâ€" ginning of the war. Tracked down, the letter writer to "The Times" said that she copied the lines from a Christâ€" mas card sent her by a friend.> The friend said that she got the lines from a postcard on which her late father had scribbled. Others who admitted they were stumped were George Be{nard Shaw, H. G. Wells, Sir Arthur Quillerâ€"Couch, Professor ‘of English Literature at Camâ€" bridge since 1912. Said Canadian Parliamentary Librâ€" arian FPrancis Hardy: "I have looked in every known work of appropriate reâ€" fererce without finding it." Immediately after the address Govâ€" ernor General Tweedsmuir, formerly John Buchan and of a bookish turn of mind, and Prime Minister Mackenzie King, both adept quotation spotters, said they were "most.interested in the authorship aof the quotation." "I said to a man who stood at the gate of the year: ‘Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown‘, and he replied, ‘Go out into the ‘darkâ€" ress and put your hand into the hand of God.
