Thus thousands of other young Canâ€" adians, some of them descendants of pioneer stock, others the second genâ€" eration born, found, in the land of their father‘s adoption, something worth fighting for. The Canadian soldier is a happy warrior. RBasically he is a blending of physical hardihood, good humour and commcnsense. Ahead of him he sees a task to be carried out and he is ready to put his shoulder to the wheel. He has only one objective and that is sumâ€" med un in the word VICTORY. He may find much of army life irkâ€" some. He may feel like that lone Highlander who in the long ago heard that there was some fighting to do. "HMHe would get his claymore and horse and be away to the war." All Canada to Do Honour to Men in Khaki During Army Week Observance (By Hal Miller) Whether he‘s in the ranks, an N.O.C. or a commissioned officer, the Canaâ€" dian soldier is the most important cog in the whole military fighting machine. He is the man who is going to take and hold the ground that will be captured when the full might of the Allied military and productive facilities have the Axis forces on the run. Up to this time, the Canadian soldier has plaved a far less glamorous role than his brothers in the Royal Canaâ€" dian Navy and the Royal Canadian Air Force, but he has just as important duties as they to perform. And his time for doing them is fast approachâ€" ing. The Canadian people have acquired a greater appreciation of the private soldier. There is evidence of this on every hand. The stepâ€"up in recruiting the growing interest in the Canadian Army, in the development of the Reâ€" serve Force and the guerilla troops. Honour the Soldier It is because the importance of his par{ in the Canadian fighting machine that Defence Minister Ralston has deâ€" cided that the Canadian soldier will be honoured throughout Canada during Army Week, from June 29 to July 5 next. Young Canadians from the "office, the plow and the factory seemed strangely remote from warfare when the call to arms came in September, 1939. When democracy was imperilled, they saw, like their fathers before them, the vath of duty and they did not hesitate. These noble lads who. today are wearing khaki battle dress are the modern Crusaders. . They know that they have in their keeping the fine traditions of the Canadian Corps. To them the future is only the past through another door. If they are French they will glory in the traditions of Dollard at the Long Sault. If they are descended from the sturdy people of the British Isles they will think of Wolfe at Quebec or Nelson at Trafalâ€" gar or perhaps of the English bowmen at Crecy. The call to duty will sound imperious and insistent. Books will be laid aside at college, ledgers will be forsaken, and the mine and the mill will be forsaken. Defence Minister Ralston Announces June 29th to July 5th as the Dates for Army Week in Canada. Canadian Solâ€" dier Said to be the Most Vital Cog in Military Fighting Machine. Must Back Up Men Stay at home Canadians should think of these lads full of eager vyouth, castâ€" ing everyvthing aside with a merry quip, to take part in the deadliest war in all history. It is the duty of all to back up the gunner, the signaller, the sapâ€" per, the forester and the infantryman. Nothing in this present war has made any serious student of warfare think that the army is obsolete and a back number. They know in their hearts that victory is only achieved by a coâ€" ordination of the Three Services. In the final analysis, it is the iMfantry and other branches of the army who give the counâ€"deâ€"grace to the enemy. If Canada‘s happy warrtors feel that the Canadian people are behind them 100 per cent, they will fight on to vieâ€" tory. It is Bill Smith from a Prairie farm, Pierre Cote from storied Quebec or Newton Jones from a Maritime fishâ€" ing village who will do the trick with the knowledge that their countrymen are behind them. Army Jcoins Celebration Evidence of this support will be given by Civilian Canada during Army Week. Consistent with training, the Army will do everything nossible to join with the public in the observance of Army Week, A national programme nas been outâ€" lined, and it will be augmented by loâ€" cal events in every military district, Churches, civic groups, industries, finâ€" ancial houses, retail stores, services groups and organizations are being asked to join the citizens of Canada in paying tribute to the Canadian Army during the period.

Fernand Dione and Lionel Plouard, of Montreal, were in court at Kirkland Lake last week charged with the theft of money and merchandise from the Hollywood Cafe at Kirkland Lake. The case was remanded for a week at the request of Crown Attorney Dalton Dean. George Wee, manager of the cafe, set the loss at $1,840.00. This inâ€" cluded $800.00 in cash, $350.00 in minâ€" ing stock and a diamond ring, watch, etc., and damage done to the safe, cash register and pinball machine. . There was also a large quantity of cigarettes stolen. The safe was carried away bodily to be opened and was later found at Crystal Lake, twelve miles from Kirkland Lake. Teck township police followed their investigations in Cochrane, Rouyn and Noranda, and the accused men were finally arrested in Montreal. Both men pleaded not guilty and E. E. Pearlman appeared as counsel for them. The case will be heard on Friday at Haileybury where the men are being held in the district jail. Editor of The Porcupine Advance Timmins, Ontario.

Another Drunk Driver is Jailed This Week. Total of Fourteen This Year Gaston James Daley Given Ten Day Term When he Pleads Guilty This Week. Police Said he Was Very Drunk and That He Refused to be Examined by a Doctor. Gaston James Daley, 48 Wilcox street a twentyâ€"fourâ€"yearâ€"old usher in a loca‘" theatre appeared in court on Tuesday afternoon to face a charge of drunk driving and after pleading guilty to the charge he was sentenced to the usual ten davs in jail. His driver‘s license was also cancelled for six months. Daley pleaded guilty to the charge on Tuesday but Magistrate Atkinson asked for a review of the evidence beâ€" fore passing sentence. Police testified that the man had been travelling along Third avenue in a rather careless manâ€" ner and they watched the car. They noticed it stop in front of a local drug store and when Daley got out of the dar thevy immediately arrested him. Police testified that Daley was very drunk and had refused to be examined by a doctor after his arrest. The car was not impounded as it did not beâ€" long to Daley. Daley was the fourteenth man to face the same charge so far this year as the police continued their relentless drive to rid the streets of this sort of motorist. Only one man was able to earn a dismissal on the charge so far and that was last week when Ross McQuillan was dismissed. Three men were charged with careâ€" less driving and one pleaded guilty and paid his fine before court opened. He was Ernest Burnett and the fine he paid amounted to twentyâ€"five dollars. Phillip Poulin also faced a similar charge and asked for a week‘s reâ€" mand. His reques}t was granted. Webster Inslev, third man facing the same charge, didn‘t fare so well either when his case was heard after he pleaded not guilty. Police told of seeing the Inslevy car travelling west on Wilson avenue on the wrong side of the road. They started to follow it and when the car reached the interâ€" section of Wilson and Rae street they saw the driver make a short turn north on Rae street. Another car that was travelling the same direction as the Insley car almost collided with it beâ€" fore being able to stop. The police continued to follow the Insley vehicle and after another block they saw the car run into and out of a ditch on the wrong side of the road. Later the car almost ran into a small creek that crossed Hollinger Lane and it was then that the police decided to stop the careless motorist. Police testified that the man showed no signs of being drunk but they couldn‘t see any reason for the peculiar driving that the muan was doing. ‘The defendant in hi Timmins, Ontario, FPriday, May 15, 1942 for attention in this The thirtieth annual report of the McIintyre Porcupine Mines Limited for the fiscal vear ending March 31ist, 1942, and issued at the last weekâ€"end is in many respects along unusual lines for such a report. Instead of the convenâ€" tional title page, the front page carries a mining scene showing part of the MciIintyre property, with one of the shaft houses looming up on the horizâ€" on and proudly carrying at its top the Union Jack. This symbolic cover page suggests that though there are clouds in the sky, these clouds are passing along, and that industry will weather whatever gales may be, and the British flag will continue to fly at the top.

The inner meaning of it all is nrobably expressed most completely in the words of the president, Mr. J. P. Bickell, in his words to the shareholders:â€"‘‘"We feel the future with a feeling of confidence and determination." President‘s Address President Bickell says, in part:â€""As our war effort gains momentum, new and sometimes unexpected obstacles must be faced and overcome. Onerous taxation, the added cost of thaterials and equipment, and increased comâ€" pensation to employees,! all combine to place a burden upon the mining indusâ€" try that it cannot long sustain. The records of many gold mining companâ€" ies already evidence what must be exâ€" pected.

Magistrate Atkinson finally decided that the man‘s argument was very weak and fined him ten dollars and Magistrate Atkinson finally decided that the man‘s argument was very weak and fined him ten dollars and costs or fifteen days in jail. For quite some time the defendant sat in the prisoner‘s box and seemed to be ready to take the jail term but immediately after the court was over he paid the fine and costs, a total of $18.50. Two men faced charges of speeding and were fined ten dollars and costs each. They were fortunate that the charges were not laid under the new Federal Act that was nassed a few weeks ago under which the fines are much greater. The charges that the men faced were laid under the Highâ€" way Traffic Act and their minimum much greater. The charges that the men faced were laid under the Highâ€" way Traffic Act and their minimum fines were ten dollars. One of the men, George Helin, pleadâ€" ed guilty to the charge but the other man, Rene Clement, decided to make a fight of it. He fared no better than his partner, however, and was given the same fine. Police said they noticâ€" ed the Clement car travelling about forty miles an hour on the Schumachâ€" er Highway near the Hollinger Ball Park.
