Firms Seeking Space In Proposed New Cold Storage Plant The future looks bright for Timmins newest; industry, Northern Frosted Foods and Cold Storage Ltd., according to its president, E. C. Brewer. Packing House And Fish Market Among Likely Additions To Business A number of inquiries and applicaâ€" tions are coming into the company for space in the new building as soon as it is ready, Mr. Brewer reports. Among other firms is the Timmins Fruit Company, which is to be located in the new plant, and which will have the advantages for the quick and sanitary handling of food products. Another meat packing house will establish a branch ‘here, Mr. Brewer states, and the people of Timmins are assured of an upâ€"toâ€"date wholesale fish market to be operated by one of Canada‘s largest distributors of fish and fish products. All of which, Hr. Brewer contends, points to the possibilitiee of Timmins being a main distributing point for foodstufis in the north, due to the fact that it is the only place in Northern Ontario that will ha‘ve. a modern cold storage plant such as that being conâ€" structed by Northern Frosted Foods. Two Deliveries Of Mail Now Made Daily In Timmins Made Possible By Return â€" Of Veterans From Serâ€" vices, Postmaster Says After more thanâ€"a month of planâ€" ning, culminating in an overâ€"night rush, the Timmins Post Office has reâ€" mins filers For example, Squadron ,_.Lesder Jack Eawn came in for menâ€" clere.ann ntur and Mrs. E. Lacourâ€" ~clere. formerly of Timmins, but â€" During the war, Mr. King explained, on account of the shortage of manâ€" power and in keeping with restricted services given in retail business genâ€" erally, the regular two deliveries per day in rersidential sections was reâ€" duced to one delivery per day. . The change back to two ddliveries daily is now possible with the return of more men from the armed forces, and the Department has authorized ‘the return to the normal service. This was a gradual affair and as a man left the Postoffice for the services he was not replaced, but instead his work was spread over to two other carriers, who served a larger territory once instead of twice daily. some of the peacetime employees are still with the services and their places have been filled by men hired on a temporary bas‘is. These ‘temporâ€" ary employees have all been selected from the ranks of veterans, it is stated. Among those still to return from the services are Mr. Clouthier, G. W. Smith, J. O. Belanger, W. R. Alkenâ€" brack and Wm. Keeling. Instead of the ten routes served on the former restricted basis, Timmins, now has 15 letter carrier routes. One delivery commences at 8 a.m. the secâ€" ond at 1 pm., with no delivery on Saturday afternoons.

High Winds Swamp Fire Department With Nine Alarms The taxi was damaged to an estiâ€" mated $20 with cost of repairs to the second ve‘iicle set at approximately $3. No charges were laid in this case.

The Advance is not offering any guarantee, but here‘s the story, as ‘it happened to me. The first fortuneâ€"telling house I visited, was indeed slipshod. I walked into a hazy, smokeâ€"filled little room, bordered off from the rest of the house by heavy, blue polka dot . curtains, through a parting of which I could see two small children, pushing toys across an untidy floor, and making ecnsiderable amount of. noise. The curtains parted and a medium sized woman came to meet me. She wore a aged brown blouse and a half clean scarf was wrapped around her head. Some of the paint on her earrings had worn away. «"You wimt your fortune told?" she asked, in a heavily accented tongue.. I said I did and she took me by the arm, telling me to sit down on a trunk that was pushed up against a .bare viceâ€"presidenlt; Art Muter, secretary; Doug Loucks, treasurer.

James Getty of 52 Cambrai‘ Ave., succumbed to a hemorrhage yesterday afternocn, in St. Mary‘s hospital, never regaining consciousness from the time of the seizure until his passing.

Mr. Getty was born in Glasgow, scotland, 56 years ago, coming to Canada in 1922 and taking up resiâ€" dence in Kingston for a short while before coming to Timmins.

Without further waiting she took my hand, turned it over and began speakâ€" ing in chopped, monotonously drawled sentences.

She stopped abruptly and said, "you pay me now." "How much?" "Frifty cents." s She took the money I offered her and then asked, "Give me something from your pocket." "Whatever for?" I said surprisedly. "I bless you with luck," she said, without changing her stoical expresâ€" sion. I thought that was simply a way of taking up time, but I looked as interâ€" ested as I could. I gave her a piece of paper, and without hesitation she took it, and began holding it against by chest, She would move the paper from one part of my chest. to another as she mumâ€" bled away in what I supposed would be her native tongue, This continued for about ten or twenty seconds, at the end of which time she stopped, and said, "happy you." "I guess so," I said. "Now you give me silver," she stated. ‘What are we going to do this time?" "I bless again," she said, and so for a second time I was endowed with gluck. > When all the luck givings had been completed she asked me if I would come again.

The unâ€" derground workman fell from a muck pile, suffering head injuries and lacerations to his lower lip and chin. Offers Explanation For Variation In Camp Temperature The doctor reports his condition is good, but results of the Xâ€"Ray‘s are not known. The news item in the South Porcuâ€" pine columns concerning the variation of temperature there and in Timmins, in one case reported to be 42 degrees in South Porcupine compared with 14 degrees in Timmins, brings, this exâ€" planation from James M. Woods in Haileybury : Fish And Game Club Will Hold Election "Regarding the South Porcupineâ€" Timmins temperature item in your paper, â€"â€" this is the answer to the problem: Sid Wheeler‘s is io0t the right temperature for the distict ang here is the reason. "His thermometer is a halfâ€"mile from Timmins and the town is big, with thousands of chimneys with heat and smoke coming out of them, which by reason of flanking this spot from the north, northâ€"west and west, and the prevailing winds being from that direction, warms it up quite a few degrees. "The only way he could give the same degrees as South Porcupine would be if the wind was from the scuth or east, and that is not very often â€"â€" in fact, almost never during a real northern winter."
