Christmas War Cry Again Proves Very Pleasing Number Beautifully Printed in Colâ€" ours it Makes General Apâ€" peal. The Army has the happy knack of making everything attractive. It makes its meetings, its religton, its works of help a~d charity pleasing and magnetic. It is only to be expected, accordingly, thet the official newspaper of the Ealvation Army should be bright and cHarming, and that this should be particularly true of the iChristmas num‘3er of The War‘Cry. Anyone lookâ€" ing for charm and interest in the 1943 Christmas Wiaur Cry will not be disapâ€" pointed. Despite all the Iandicaps of war Uays this year‘s Chris‘imas War Cry appears to be even more attractive than usual. It is beautifully printed on good paper, with a number of very charmirz and apipropriate illus:rations., It may safely be termed a genuine work of art, and the in the number is fully vo to the high standard of its dress. The art work on both the front and the back cover of the magaz‘ne are worth sudy not alone from tWe artistic s‘ardpoint, but even more so because of the messaze so antly implied. The back cover presents a city winter scene, with a lady Salvaâ€" tionist singing "Glory to God in the Highest," an Army captain playirg the accompaniment cna the cornet. So clearly is ithe couple pictured and so typical is the aititude of each, that were it not for the backgreund of towerinzg skyâ€"scen:iper buildirgs, the scene might easily be set down as one in Tiuimrmins. The contents of The Christmas War Cry fully support is handsome gart of type, printing ard illustration. Some of the special articles in the issue have particular appeal to people of Timmins and district because the authors of these articles visived here in the past and are known to many. The opening article in the number, for example, is "The Message of the Bells," by Comâ€" missioner Benjamin Orames, who visitâ€" ea Timmins, ebcout this time last year. 000000 0000“0“0““““0“ 0““““00“ ©§00%400004 6 C PAGE S1TX FRIDAYâ€"HOCKEY NNIGHT 7,30â€"Army Cadets vs. Iroquois Falls 9.00â€"Holman‘s vs. Air Cadets SATURDAYâ€"HOCKEY NIGHT 7.30â€"Sumacther ,vs, Sea Cadets 8.00 nm-â€"-Pubhc Skating Admissis‘a â€"2%0câ€"â€"Both â€" Features MONDAYâ€"-â€"Pub!ic Skating 8.15 p.m. TUESDAYâ€"Porcupine Skating Club WEDNESDAYâ€"PUBLIC SKATING Afternoon 2â€"3.45 _ Even. 8.15â€"19.15 b9004%¢0%00800000000000000006000466¢ THURSDAYâ€"Public: Skating 8.15 [ ASCHEDULE i FOR WEEK Start her on Timmins Dairy Milk now for health‘s sake, later on she‘ll get beautyâ€"throughâ€"health, beâ€" cause they can be certain of its purity.

"Unto You is Born a Saviour," is the title of the message from the Army‘s irternational leader, General George L. Carpenter, Some years ago General Carpenter and Mrs. Carpenter visited Timmins and made many friends here, when the General was Commissioner for Canada, Newfoundland, Alaska and Bermuda. Many here will remember with pleaâ€" sure the visit to Timmins in June of 1940 of Col. and Mrs. G. W. Peacock. Col. Peacock is Chief Secre‘ary of the Army, and the Christmas War Cry has a special article by him on ‘"Peace on Farth! The Greatest Need of the Modern World!" "Lessons Learned in Nature‘s Cathâ€" edral," is the title of a very interesting and valuable ilustrated articke in the Christmas War Cry by Jack Miner, O.B.E., internationally famed Canadian nature lover. Jack Miner, who is the friend of every animal that lives, irâ€" respective of the number of legs the said animal may have, is wellâ€"known and popular here. Many nere have visited Jack Miner‘s bird sanctuary at Kirgsville, and, of course, Jack Miner has been to Timmins. If you wagered yourself that Jack Miner would write about wild ducks and geese, you win! But he also has something to say aâ€" bout rabbits and moose and othéer unâ€" tamed denizens of the fields and woods.

Amons the illustrations with this ant ho#@@0004 0460 460664 ¢ Just after Hitler trampled on Czechoâ€" slovakia The Advance suggested that Canada should contact some of the exâ€" perts driven from Czechoâ€" slovakia by the Nazis. These experts knew all about kaolin and could have been used to assist in brmgmfl to development the kaolin industry in the North. Czechoâ€" slovakia was one country where kaolin, or china clay, had been utilized in noâ€" table way. Perhaps, it is not too late to do something about it. Recently there has been much inâ€" terest in the oil shale deposits north of Cochrane. For many years past The Advance has advocated the developâ€" ment of the mineral resources north of Cochrane. These are believed to be much more important than generally realized. There has been much attenâ€" tion paid to the lignite deposits but there is reason for thinking that there are even more important resources than the lignite fields. Of course, the war has hampered development or even talk development. The war itself, howâ€" ever, seems to be a special reason for special attention to some of the reâ€" sources. For instance, it would appear that a big chance was missed in regard to the deposits of kaolin known to exist. Large Deposits at Mileage 112 to 114 on Enthusiastic About Oil Shale Deposits North of Cochrane "Resources that will prove to be more valuable than gold ore are at Cochâ€" rane‘s back door. There is a strong posâ€" sibility that pool oil will be found up the T. N. O. _ but even if this is not the case, the oil shale deposits are of the utmost importance. "go declared R. E. Holliday, of Minâ€" ing Research Corporation, consulting reologist, who addressed a fairly large audience on Wednesday night following the Board of Trade meeting. The oil Anything connected with oil these days has special interest for the counâ€" try at large, so it is not remarkable that the oil shales north of Cochrane should Cochrane Northland Post had the folâ€" iowing front page reference to this matâ€" ter: be receiving particular thought, despite the war.or rather because of the war. There is one group of men who are very enthusiastic on this oil question i1 the North. In its issuue last week The shale deposits, located at Mileage 112 to 114, T. N. O. Railway are very large and although they are close enough to. the surface that the removal of overâ€" Bburden would present no difficulty, the clay has acted as a perfect capping to prevent escape. Mr. Holliday stated that he had visited the shale fields of Manchuria and Esthonia, but had never seen such rich deposits as he has found on the banks of the Abitibi river. "Although acting as consultant at present for MacDyke Oil and Mining industries Limited the speaker became familiar with the deposits many years ago. He recalled that while eating supâ€" per one day on the banks of the Abitibi he tossed a bit of rock on his camp fire and found that it would burn. Since the preliminary exploration work done at that time he has been an ardent adâ€" vocate of development of the resources of the area. He passed around samples of the shale, and turning his table into a laboratory be'nc‘i placed some of the rock into a retort and extracted the oil and gas from it. "Mr. Holliday was accompanied by Messrs W. S. Pratt and W. J. Chafe, of McLean Pratt ard Company, Toronto brokers wha are handling the stock is-! sue of MacDyke. A gang of men under. the direction by Mr. C. Purdue of the{ Central Ontario Oil and Gas Well Drilling Company went up to the field on Wednesday with three carloads of equipment to begin drilling for pool oil This drilling is the immediate concern of the company, although plans are under consideration for the erection, of a plant to extract carbon black and four grades of oil from the shale. Carâ€" bon black, it was expla’inea,\is the subâ€" stance largely used in the manufacture of rubber, plastics, paint, etc., and not ow produced in Canada. "Aiter the address and demonstration the meeting was thrown open for quesâ€" ticns. Some of the quesioners raising points as to the relationship of the zederal and provincial governments to such development schemes, and the manner in which private individuals and companies obtained exploration rights. Mr. J. A. Bradette, M.P., who was present as a listener, had to be callâ€" ed in to explain the manner in which such development work was left entirely to private enterprise, although certain projects in other parts of the country have been undertaken by the governâ€" ments as war measures."

V ery Serious Case at Juvenile Court Here There was a very serious case at Juâ€" venile Court this week when three boys were before the court for an assault on another lad. The latter had his eyes blackened, lip cut and other injuries, as well as having been kicked, but serâ€" ious as all this might be, the gravity of the charge was in the fact that the asâ€" saulted boy missed death by a near miracle. Last summer this lad. was padly injured when struck on the head by a stone. Dr. MacKechnie performed a' delicate operation to save the boy‘s life, the skull being opened and a clot of blood removed from the brain. The operation was a notable success, but it will take considerable time for growth to properly protect the lad‘s head where the operation wound remains. On this account even a light blow at this point might prove fatal. This was strongly impressed on the boys charged with assaiult and the injured boy was also warned to be very careful until he was fully recovered from the operation. It seems that after a quarrel with one of them, the three boys had "ganged up" to beat the other lad. It was impressed upon them how easily they might have caused his death. The boys charged to beat the other lad. It was impressed upon them how easily they might have caused his death. The boys charged and their parents realizing now the seriousness of the matter, the boys were placed on probation, to report for the next two months to the C.A.S. inspector Wilfred Desroches Hanged at Haileybury on Tuesday Wilfred Desroches, 23, of Cochrant was hanged on Tuesday at 1.07 a.m. at the Haileybury jail for the murder of Mrs. Alfreda April at Driftwood on July 1st. Thirteen minutes after he vas officially pronounced dead by the jail physician. Dean Kester, K.C., deâ€" fended Desroches at his trial in Sepâ€" tember and put up a strong fight for his life. After the trial a largely signed petition was sent to the Minister of dustice, but no clemency could be seâ€" cured though Mr. Kester continued his efforts for his client to the very last. The chief argument advanced by Mr. Kester was that the accused was not of sound mind as a result of accidents in his boyhood. south Porcupine, Dec. 2nd. Spec1a1 to The Advance.
