The Timmins Boys "K" Club has made a remarkable start on the work of collecting aluminum. This metal is urgently needed for war purposes, especially for aircraft work, and the Boys "K" Club is certainly do‘ing its part. Yesterday, the first day of the collection, between 400 and 500 pieces were collected, chiefly pots, pans, ketâ€" tles, a goodly amount for the first day. The boys are making a houseâ€"toâ€" house canvass and are doing a very thorough job. Housewives can help by hunting up any useless articles of aluminum and having them ready for the boys to take away. Remember the BoyS‘ "K" Club is the only authorized collector of salvage in Timmins. Each boy has a card showâ€" ing his authority. There have been attempts to make a racket of the salâ€" vage collection in some places, so ask to see the boy‘s card. If anyone withâ€" out a card from the Boys‘ "K" Club attempts to collect salvage, send for the police. A large wire cage has been erected on Cedar street near the corner of Third avenue. The progress of the collection of aluminum may be folâ€" lowed by watching the way this cage fills up. This evening between 7 and 730 Mayor J.

Today the Nazi high command admits from Berlin that the Russians have launched new counter attacks in the vital Smolensk argea but Insist that the Soviet efforts to relieve the surrounded Russian troops had been beaten off. The Russian communiquh this morn« ing was very short and concise® Ib merly said that heavy fighting continâ€" ued throughout the night in the Pork= hov, Noverzhev, Smolensk and Zhito« mir sectors of the longâ€"drawn battle front. The communique failed to menâ€" tion whether the Russian army were meeting with any success or not. Officials in London are reported as saying that the outcome of the battle of Smolensk, considered one of the most important engagements in ‘the Russian campaign, will depend on the ability of the German command to deâ€" ploy fresh, firstâ€"rate troops against the Russians. It added that the German communique seems complicated â€" by counter attacks reported by passing adâ€" vancing Germans often and attacking lines of communication. Another report says that the Rusâ€" sian counterâ€"offensive against the Gerâ€" mans is meeting with success along the whole line and the Germans are reâ€" ported to .be forced back. Many guns of all calibre and a trainload of ammuâ€" nition was reported captured. The Ger« mans are said to be retreating at the point of bayonet,| in some places through snow.

Yvesterday the collection starteda on Lake Shore Road, and Toke street, Patricia, John, James and other streets were canvassed. Today the boys are starting on Cedar street and will work down to Mountjoy. The whole town is to be thoroughly canvassed.
