Reports comirg in to the headquarâ€" ters of the Cochrane District of the Victory Loan at Timmins are more than encouraging. They seem to sugâ€" gest that the loan is going over the top, but that is only inspiring those in charge of the campaign to redoubled effort. _ Yesterday, headquarters said that reports had come in from the Disâ€" trict on the first day‘s sales gave Smocoth Rock Falls 70 per cent of obâ€" jective; Cochrane, 25 per cenkt, of obâ€" jective; Dome, 12% per cent. The Townchip of Tisdalse Employces have reached 1co per cent of their obâ€" jective. The Workers‘ Coâ€"operative have 100 per cent, on the payvroll objective plan. Goced progress is being made at Kapâ€" ukasing. All prospects appear strong for a conâ€" tinued increase in the next day or two. The committees and canvassers are buckling into work. Timmins headâ€" quarters in the Emuire hotel have made some large overâ€"theâ€"counter sales and anticipate an increased flow of bond purchases right along. News and views of the effort in the district were broadcast over the radio Tuesday night by Organizer E. W. Brooks, General Sales Chairman P. J. Durdlop and Public Relations Chairman H. F. Burt. From Schumacher comes the story of happy good fortune for the several parties concerned.

Next, there are the O‘Hara‘s of 107 A First avenu>, Schumacher, fortunate in having a charming little daughter, Sandra Hunter O‘Hara, who has just celebrated her second birthday. And last, but not least by any means, is ltâ€" tle Miss Sandra Hun‘ler O‘Hara herâ€" elf, lucky indeed to have such a home and family and such a wonderful birthâ€" day gift. The O‘Hara‘s had the inspirâ€" ation that no better birthday present could be made to the youngster than to buy her Victory Bonds. Mr. Crosby thought it an excellent idea and the final result was that Bob had the pleaâ€" sure of writing a "Third Victory Bond" in favour of Sandra Hunter OHara for the handsome sum of $5,000.00 Remands were given at polics court on Tuesday in six cases of charges of receiving stolen goods.
