Many of the lads from the Porcuplne enlisted dpring the dark days of ‘39 and ‘40â€"â€"when the tut.ure -appeared most grim. . LACK OF ROADS IS HINDERING â€" DEVELOPMENT OF NEWER AREAS ~ "We can mangge taking the stuff cut by truck on the resemblance of a road for the first ten or so miles, bu! after. that we have to rely on horses to get it into the mines," Mr. Bromâ€" ley said, "Bo you see we are all in the hope that the minister of highways will .see fit to build a highway through into. this new mining counâ€" try sometime in.thenot too distant fuâ€" ture." s . Piccadilly Porcupine formerly known as the Orpit Company will possibly be a shaftâ€"sinking concern in the near future, having indicated some 300,000 tons of $6.00 ore to date. â€" Gold is where ,.you find it so the saying goes and judging from the information received from Peter Bromley, local geologist, theâ€"companies prospecting Bristol, Carscallen, Denton and Godfrey townships seem to possess leads as to where this precisus mineral can be unearthed. The transportation of equipment to these prospective mines takes on the proportions of a real problem as far as roads are concerned. *Â¥ Sig $E C Aumo Porcupine comes next to the e es e s e e t t e 00 0 n e se t s ol EC ECC T P S ® h. c h t 3 ct Left, above, a Canadian‘ patxtol picks its way carefully throu-gh the ruins of Caen searching out German snipers.

Comrade Father O‘Gorman remindâ€" ed us in his address from the Cenoâ€" tdph that we should everâ€" bear in mind the long list of honors that the . men of, this generation have added to those achieved by their foreâ€" bears in ‘14â€"â€"‘18â€"â€"and never to forget the cost in blood and sacrifice. _ As one returned man remarked, war is a dirty business. . This same man freely admitted that the service at the Cenotaph was, to him, a terrible ordeal.‘ He had travelled the long road through Italy with \the Irish Regimegrit andâ€"â€"with all their triumphs â€"~â€"the Irish â€" took a.‘ terrible. beating. Their dosses crashing. the Hitler and Gothic Lines were probably as heavy as those borne by any unit that went overseas from Canada. ~ And ‘before ‘we get ‘into this too deeply we musn‘t forget to pay triâ€" bute to those members of Canada‘s Navy and Air Force who individually â€"â€"in ‘one way or amotherâ€"â€"gave more than anyâ€"man should be expected to give.

Dept., advising the council that they could not reduce the speed limit of motor vehicles below 30 miles per hour, even by byâ€"law. Some agitation in the Schumacher area regarding the speed limit through the town led to the council‘s enquiry. The Fire and Light Committee are making a survey of public lighting and its adequacy in the near future. The Canadian National Institute for the Blind were granted permission to hold a tagâ€"day on May 23rd, 1946. Can‘t Reduce Speed Limit Past 30 M.P.H. Even the hens are capable of going on strike, or so it seems, judging from the size of the eggs appearing lately.
