For the first time in many months, police court was conducted here this week without a single lawyer being preâ€" sent. Most of the local legal profession wore at Court at Cochrane being conâ€" cerned in some of the important cases before the Judge there. As a result of Not a Lawyer at Police Court on Tuesday This Week Most of Legal Profession at Cochrane at Court There A separate paragraph is herewith reserved to mention quotations from The Advance appearing in Canada‘s Weekly, of London, England, and The War Cry. It is a lesson in geography to note the different newspapers that quoted from The Advance. They represefit east, west, north and south, and centre Space â€"would not permit of even a mention of all the quoting newspapers. A few, however, may well be set down. Newfoundland is represented by The Curling Western Star and the St. John‘s News. â€" The Halifax Star, The Moncton Transcript, The Sidnéy Post Record, The Yarmouth Herald are among the Nova Scotia newspapers that know a good thing when they see it. New Brunswick has The Fredericton Leader and the Saint John Telegramâ€"Journal quoting from The Advance. The Chairtottetown Guardian, shows that the small province of Prince Edward Island has as much good taste as any of the other provinces. In Queâ€" bec, there are such newspapers as The Huntingâ€" don Gleaner, The Coaticook Observer, The Sherâ€" brooke Telegram, The Granby Leader and Mail, The Canadian Legionary and The Quebec Teleâ€" gram, using items from The Advance for the benâ€" efit and pleasure of readers. Ontario, naturally is the best represented of any of the provinces. The Globe and Mail, ‘Bhe Telegram, The Ottawa Journal, The Ottawa Citizen, The Windsor Star, The Fortâ€"William Timesâ€"Journal, The Brockville Recorder and Times, and Judith Robinson‘s ‘"News" almost make a practice of quoting The‘ Advance. There are literally scares of other Onâ€" tario towns that apparently like items from The Advance, To mertion a few, The Oshawa Timesâ€" Gazette, The St. Thomas Timesâ€"Journal, The Smith Falls Recordâ€"News, The Peterborough Examiner, The Orilliaâ€"News Letter, The Sarnia Canadian, The Thorold Post, The Collingwood Enterpriseâ€" Bulletin, The Winchester Press, The Kenora Miner and News, The Pembroke Standardâ€"Observer, The Orillia Packet and Times, are a few of the many Ontario journals that give their readers the occasâ€" ional treat. Manitoba is not so well represented as some other provinces. The Brandon Sun and The Flin Flon Miner are exceptions to the general apathy in John Bracken‘s province. In Alberta, The Lethbridge Herald, The Calgary Albertan, The | Edmonton Bulletin, and The Delia Times uphold the banner of literature by occasionally quoting from The Advance. Saskatchewan has The Rothâ€" ern Times, The Saskatoon Starâ€"Phoenix, The Canora Courier and The Whitewood Herald to carry items from The Advance to lonely prairie homes to cheer them up. It is an odd fact that only three British Columbia newspapers have quoted The Adâ€" vance in recent months. These three are The Trail Times, The Kelowna Courier and The Vancouver Province. It is interesting to note the articles that are most popular with other newspapers. One of the most widely quoted items from The Advance was one urging a square deal for the North. Another It would appear from the clippings received that during the past few months 127 different newsâ€" papers in Canada and elsewhere clipped items from The Advance, giving due credit to The Adâ€" vance for the borrowed items, Even a clipping bureau can not give full information as to how often items are clipped and published without credit heing given. The Advance has the right to say that this newspaper is very widely quoted, If any proof of this were needed it will be found in the batch of literally hundreds of clippings from other newsâ€" papers forwarded this week to the Advance by the Dominion Press Clipping and Public Relations Bureau, of Toronto., This Bureau makes a busâ€" iness of collecting from the newspapers and magâ€" azines information and opinions on almost any subject or matter. The Bureau has clients among business, financial and industria!l concerns, poliâ€" ticians, preachers, teachers, missioners, lecturers and others. The Bureau finds that newspapers can facilitate the work of the Bureau in several ways, and in return for this coâ€"operation they give the individual newspaper some facts about how much or how little other newspapers quote the individual journal concerned, Canada $2.00 Per Year.

There does not seem to be any indiviaaal or group representative of the German people except the gangsters who have been running the nation for the past few years. The Kerrâ€"Addison mine in the Larder Lake area would generally be termed as one of the newer mines of the North. Yet the community that has grown up around it had a horticultural show this year. There was a notable array of flowers and vegetables on exhibit. There were 67 classes with competition in practically every class Mr. R. Skelly, formerly active in the Timmins Horticultural Society, and now president of the Kirkland Lake Horticultural Society, was one of the jJudges at the Kerrâ€"Addison event. The exhibits \'were all from employees of the Kerrâ€"Addison Mine. The event at Kerrâ€"Addison seems to typify the spirit of the Northâ€"cultivating beauty while carry ing on the business of life. ‘ | Still stands the motto of the King: "Put into your task whatever it may be, all the courage and purpose of which you are capable. Keep your hearts proud and your resolve unshakâ€" en. Let us go forward to that task as one man a smile on our lips and our heads held high and with God‘s help we shall not fail." The Salvation Army has the human touch and the understanding heart, and with these indispenâ€" sable qualities, this is what the Salvation Army does:â€" Seeks the missing and the lost. Kindles new hops. Sets the prisoners free. Remakes broken lives. Sympathizes with the sick. Understands youth‘s problems. Cares for somebody‘s mother, and the same for the dad. Comforts the war striken. Ministers in hospital. Kindles new hopes. Reâ€"vamps a warâ€"torn world. This week and next might well be termed "Salâ€" vation Army Week." During these weeks there should be special effort made to assure that the small objective aimed at by headquarters for Timâ€" mins and district, should be materially exceeded. By this time all should understand and appreciate all that the Salvation Army is doing for the beneâ€" fit.of Canada and its people. Facts and figures are constantly appearing in this matter. It might be easier to remember the need, if the situation were phrased in special way. A booklet issued by the Salvation Army gives the appeal in impressive way. Striking phrases tell the story:â€" In recent days there has been altogether too much said about how soon the war with Gerâ€" many will be at an end. People have been overâ€" working hope and not working enough themselves. There is much to do yet before the enemy is really beaten. The terms of "unconditional surrender‘" make it difficult for Germany to quit. Even in case the Nazis do throw up their hands, it will take months of stern and dangerous endeavour to straighten up Europe. No deal can be made with any of the gangsters, and who else can speak for a majority of the people of Germany? No good and much harm may result from too much wishful thinking. No one should rest on their oars. Inâ€" stead, help the Red Cross and every other patriâ€" otic cause. Work! Not wishing! Redoubled effort and attention should be given to every patriotici cause. Help the Red Cross and all the other patriâ€" otic efforts. Work! Never mind wishing. In any event, it has been proven beyond doubt that The Advance is widely quotedâ€"as wide as the Dominionâ€"and that this fact is not harmful to Timmins, the North Land or the world at large. Many quoted articles on the lignite problem, the gold question, the climate and other Northern topics. Editorial reference to the unusual plan aâ€" dopted by Timmins public library, by which juvenâ€" ile books were reviewed by youngsters who were members of the library, attracted much attention. *L PCP PAAA â€"AL dealt with the way that horses and cows respectâ€" ively rise to their feet. A very widely quoted item was the one that referred to a picture of Hon. Mr. Isley wearing a broad smile published the day after the budget and the new taxes had been anâ€" nounced. "Probably, he was the only man in Canada wearing a smile that day." concluded The Advance.

He also stresser th need in the district of the services of a consultant psychiatrist, as well as institutional care for children with certain types of mental illness, and urged the Society to use its influence in trying to secure these facilities. â€"AINSURANCE SERVICE Directorsâ€"Mrs. T.

Five Births Registered in Timmins This Week W. J. Grummett, M.L.A., in List of K.C.‘s Appointed W. J. Grummett, member of the Ontario Legislature for this riding of South Cochrane, was among the fifâ€" teen lawyers honoured recently by beâ€" ing created King‘s Counsel in Ontario. At one time there were large numbers of King‘s Counsel appointed each year in Ontario, but more recently there has been a tendency to keep the numâ€" ber of new appointments down, so that toâ€"day it may be an honour again to be able to put "K.C." after one‘s name. At present, in theory at least, K.C.‘s are created on the recommendation of the law associations. There are only a few KC.‘s in the North Land and all of them, like Mr. Grummett, bear the honour worthily. Games and dancing were enjoyed throughout the evening by the young people, music being supplied by Mr. Ron Jones. The guest of honour was the recipiâ€" ent of many lovely and useful gifts, along with the very best wishes of her many friends. A very delicious lunch was served by Mrs. Menard, assisted by Mrs. R. Menard, and Mrs. A. Pitre. The list, as detailed by Mr. Slater, follows: Five cats have six toes on each front foot; two others have five toes on both, and three cats have four toes on both. Most of them, it was inâ€" dicated, have five toes on each back paw, but one boasts six at the rear and five in front. The pussy which was killed had seven toes on each of its front feet, Mr. Slater said. The home of Mrs. S. Menard, 74 Kent Avenue, was the scene of a lovely party on Tuesday evening, in honour of the 16th birthday of her daughter, Claire. Honoured on Occasion of Sixteenth Birthday One of the kittens is deceased and another has a prominent "V for Vicâ€" tory" sign on the breast, their owner said. Normal cats, as disclosed by a hasty examination of one handy at the time, are equipped with five toes on each of their front feet, and four more on gach of their rear pin. That lets out the Chariton kitties, who are described, as to breed, as being half Persian, and decided curiosities in appearance. ‘ (From New Liskeard Speaker) According to the office dictionary, catsâ€"paws are "dupes", but that worthy tome appears to be without any suitâ€" able definition to fit the feline feet of eleven pussies in the Charlton area, where \they are in the keeping of Henry Slater. MrSlater, in town on Tuesday, gave The Speaker the story, noting that two cats are the parents and the balance their offspring. Cats Paws Sause Much Comment at New Liskeard Timmins,.

Bears are reported as being very numerous in the North this year, Comâ€" plaints come especially from â€" the Cochrane area, where many sheep have been killed by the bears. Near Hunta the bears have ‘been particularly troublesome, killing many sheep and causing other damage. The bears are noted for their curiosity and also for their ability .to break their way to foodstuffs. Sometimes the damage they do through their curiosity is more serious than actual loss through foodstuffs taken. For this reason they are articularly disliked around lumber camps and prospectors‘ cabins. Someâ€" times they are accused of a regular mania for breaking screens and smashing windows and doors, One settler at Hunta lost eleven sheep through bears recently, while another in the same district lost six or seven lambs. So far, in the Hunta area six bears have been shot this year. North of Cochrane even the Indians are comâ€" plaining about the bears this year. Similar complaints come from the Temiskaming area, where beag's have killed sheep and lambs and also did other damage. A number of bears have been shot by settlers and others to. avoid damage from these nosy animals, but despite the fact that the number of bears killed is much larger than in ordinary years, the damage still conâ€" tinues, as the bears appear to be much more numerous than in the a.vcragcl year. , Highway Officials Pay Visit to South Porcupine Many Sheep Killed in the Area â€" Near Cochrane, as well as Other Damage Bears Among the Nuisances in North .
