Porcupine Always Ready to Support Idea of Education thoughts in the minds of those who were working to build up this countryâ€" education and permanence. Residents here seemed to desire to have the town built on safe and permanent lines. It is not surprising that this agesire for permanence went along with that other ideal of education. In any event, it was not long after the building of modern brick schools here that other brick structures began to be common in the seeking after permanence and safety. It is also worth recalling at this time that there were some who quesâ€" tioned wisdom a quarter of a century ago of building an eightâ€"room brick school in a small town such as this was at that time. There were eighiy pupils at the public school at the time there was talk of building an expensive structure to accommodate 320 youngsters.

Whereas output in the Union of south Africa has increased without interruption during the last few years, with the result that it was nearly oneâ€" thirda larger in 1941 than in 1931, the increase in certain other countries has been even more pronounced. Thus, during the last ten years, production in North America nearly doubled; in Ssouth America, Oceania, and, probably Asia, it nearly trebled. The developâ€" ment .was still more spectacular in however, and had the support of the people in general. Their foresight was proven by the fact that before the school was actually constructed, it was not large enough for the expected atâ€" tendance, and within A few years two additions of equal stze to the original had to be added.

They had <just asked for the beer and it had been brought to them but they couldn‘t remember who had brought it.. Roberge was then asked about serving the beer ana he admitâ€" ted that he had served the beer to his friends. He denied that he had chargâ€" ed them for the beer though. On August 22nd about eleven o‘clock Constable Guolla conducted a second raid on the same place and that time he was accompanied by Constables Amlin and Vic Belanger. to the raid he had received information that there was a secret cache in the house and when he entered the houss he found this hiding place under the floor in the front room. The rug was removed and there in sight of all was the trap door that led to the storeâ€" roocm for the beer. There were many signs in this secret hiding place that beer had been kept there. Labels were to be seen streown all over the floor and the ground was well packed as though there had been a lot of traffic over*4t. Besides this cache under the floor the consta‘bles also found ninetgen bottles of beer in another case in one of tn> bedrooms. at the house, two other persons had calledâ€" for his friend and they were the only people that had come to the house that night. His two friends were called to the stand and they denied that any other person had called at the house while they were there. «One of the men was askeq if he had heard the evidence of Constable Belanger who said that at least nine persons had rapped at the dcoor and either entered or left after a conversation with ons of the persons inside, and he said that he had heard the evidence but he branded it as lies. The magistrate then decided that there would be a conviction and read the accused‘s record. He found that Roterge had served three months on the same charge two years ago and this term was admitted by the accused who said that it was the last time he had dabbled in the beer business. His anâ€" swer evidently didn‘t make any imâ€" pression on the magistrate as he orâ€" dered him to serve annther three months for selling beer. The magisâ€" trate also ordered the premises to be made public for a period of one year when it will be 1nï¬=gal to have any sort of spiriis in the house. Joseph Moreau, formerly of 63 Third avenue, in Timmins, was given the benefit of the doubt in a charge of having beer in other than his private residence on Tuesday afternoon in police court.

Moreau‘s story was that on the Satâ€" urday night that he was arrested he was moving to another house. Before he had gone to work that day he had moved some of his belongings to the new room that he was going to rent and that room was already occupied by two other men but Moreau claimed that he was going to sleep on a chesâ€" terfield in the room till Monday when one of the men was supposed to leave town. Included among the belongings that he had transferred to his new HOLY FAMILY SEPARATE sCHOOL, TTMMIN® room was 14 pints of beer, a part galâ€" lon jar of wine ana part of a forty cunce bottle of wine. Moreau said that he was working in a local sawmill and that he had exâ€" pected to arrive home shortly after six o‘clock but he was asked to work overâ€" time that night and didn‘t arrive home till after ten o‘clock. When he got home he was confronted by the police who asked him if he cwned the win? that had been found in a room across the street. Hs admitted ownership ang told the police the same story that h> told the magistrate. Constables Munroe and Guolla gays evidence against Moreau and said that they had conducted a raid on the boardâ€" ing house at 69 Third avenue ang hail found the wine there. A man by the name of Clermont Butette was staying in the room and it was he who told the police that the wine belonged to Moreau. The polics then went to Moreau‘s room, across the street, and after hearing him admit ownership they laid the charge. Magistrate Atkinson and Crown Atâ€" torney Caldbick agreed that the man haq told a plausible story and the (isâ€" missal was granted. Armand Perron paid a fine of ten dollars and costs on the same charge of having beer in other than his priâ€" vate residence when he pleaded guilty to the charge. Perron had been caught on a Timmins strset with a bottle of beer in his car. The magistrate finally disposed of the charge against Edward Walker, of Timmins, on Tuesday when he ordered the man to pay a fine of ten dollars and costs or serve thirty days.

The evidence was taken in the case two weeks ago but the magistrate asked that the wins b> sent away for analysis and on Tuesday Leo H. Gagnon, chief of police, read Joseph Romeo Lontin was charged with having wine in a public place and he appearedq in court on Tuesday and pleaded guilty to the charge. The magistrate fined him ten dollars and if the fine was not paid Lontin would have to serve thirty days in the Haileyâ€" bury jail. When arrested and found in possession of the wine, Walker had told the police that he had bought the wine from a house in Timmins and was bringing it home with him to rub on his legs in an effort to relieve the pain from rheumatism. The magistrate didn‘t recommend that anyone else try that remedy. Walker was later relsasâ€" ed on bail and since that time the police have been unable to find him to bring him to court.
