He truly loved Hilda as much as it was in his nature to love anybody; but at the back of his love had been the thought, the hope, nay, the conviction, that the money of the Boults and Medâ€" ways, their property, their businesses (he did not know how many these were but he believed that they represented a considerable sum) would bolster up his own sinking fortunes. There was a discontented droop in his shoulders and a slouch in his step as he approached the house. The voung man passed into the hall, and turned at once into the small room at the right where his mother sat. Yes he knew she would be there, and there she was at her accounts. And with this burning sense of wrong in his baffled mind he went again up to the old Mansion House. "BECAUSE WE ARE POOR?" Simon Petigrew‘s genuine distress was not mingled with the anger of hurt masculine prids. She turned and ran, he stumbled after her a step or two then gave up the pursuit in hot indignation.

Bruce Millar was the speaker at the Kiâ€" wanis Club on Monday. He gave an addréss that held the keenest attention of all, dealing with the social questions of the.day, especially with unemployâ€" ment. The effects of the dole in Engâ€" land weére clearly outlined by the speaker, as well as the ills that were sure to follow indiscriminate efforts of years ago. ""the crack box lacrosse team from the Dome Mines added another to their list of wellâ€"won victories when they defeated Timmins here by a score of 8 to 2. This leaves the Dome with three victories out of five games, Timâ€" mins making one win and ticing anothâ€" jer game. In view of the earlier start of the Dome team this season, Timmins is making a good showing. The Dome team is certainly a gooed one and coachâ€" ed and trained to perfection and the teâ€" am that can beat them even once or tie them, is certainly going some." The Advance had the following ten years ago: ‘"The Hollinger Mine now has a uniformed police of its own, consisting of a chief constable and nine men.â€" The new police force at the mine started duty this week, and their uniâ€" forms and helmets along the same lines as the Metropolitan police, attracted much notice on their first day or two on duty. The chief of the new force is Chief Constable Hitch, formerly of Sault Ste. Marie and once serving as deâ€" puty police at Regina. Under Chief Hitch there are nine selected men, some of them with experience on the provincial police, it is understood. The force is said to have been organized with the assistance of Chie? Constable James Ramesbottom, chief of police for the International Nickel Co." "Last week." said The Advance ten ~On Wednesday afterncoon in Septemâ€" ber ten vears ago, literally hundreds of people in town watched the eclipse of the sun. There were no scientific <bserâ€" vations made, so far as known, but amâ€" ateurs by the literal hundreds watched the phenomenon with great interest. It was seven years since there was a similar occurrance observable in Timâ€" mins, the event being in January, 1925. Scientists said the next similar eclipse to be visible in this part of Canada would be in 1968. (Observations here were made â€" by the use of smoked glasses, photographic films, etc. The phenomâ€" enon could not be observed by the naâ€" ked eve, and the scientifit gentlemen had warned against the attempt to watch. the eclipse without the use of smoked glasses or other protection to the eves. The Advance said ten yvears ago that the football match on Timmins grounds on Tuesday evening between Dome and McIntyre in the Byrne Cup series was spoinled by two causes. One was the condition of the grounds, and the other was the unfortunte injury to Pryor, who had his leg broken in two places. Word that morning from South Porcuâ€" pine said that the fractures to his leg were clean and uncomplicated and that he was making good recovery, but it meant that he was out of football for that season at least, in addition to the suffering and inconvenience to be enâ€" dured. 006566¢5“64%:AA*RIF33$FFF N hh smm Wwms Nh en tÂ¥ smm y §p mm ces B N v uen amemun §@ TZEN YE IN 11 w l From data in the Po §1 cwmuee §G B mss § D ce $ # $ omm #§ ces i6 camus $ ocms §# D# + omm e vars Major General J.
