Patriotic people, while realizing hat the reg.stration was neccssary in the war eflort, hoped in t.aeir hearts that it would not develop that the registraâ€" tion plan would be any thin edge of entry for European rod tape and regâ€" cmentation. During the war of 1914 to 1918, the people of the Porcupine were ailways ready to do anything, or accept anyâ€" thing, to ‘ielp along the war effort. The results of the National Registraâ€" tion Day here was another proof of this fact. Although the population of the Timmins area (Timmin:, Monâ€" ecta, Rochester and Gillies Lake) was little over 4,000, counting men, women and cluildren, the total registration exceeded 2,600. The deputy registrar for Timmins area said a ter the regâ€" istration that hg believed that pracâ€" ically overy man and woman eligible to do so had registered in Timmins as required. At that time, Timnrins did not inâ€" clude Moneta, Rochester or Gillies Lake townsitse, nor was Mattagami Heights a part of the town of Timmins. The registration for Mattagami He‘gnts was held at Hili‘s Garage, and 269 males and 150 females registered there a total of 419. At the time, thore was little questâ€" ion in the minds of most people here as to the desirability of registration of man power and woman power. The war was at a critical stage, and it was felt that cvery effort and every reâ€" source that Canada could supply sAould be offered to win the war. Men, mun.tions, supplies, and food especâ€" ially, were the great needs o. the day, and it was evident that these could not be made available without inâ€" timate knowledge of the resources of man and woman power, as we.l as record of materials It was beâ€" lieved that all effort wa; not being diâ€" rected along the best lines. Some were chngaged in nonessential, or even undesirable, occupations,. Many were anxicus to do more than they were dcing but had no direction or leadâ€" e:ship. It was hoped and believced that the registration would rignt these Whether National Registration acâ€" cemplished all that it was hoped it wculd may be to question, but ‘here is no doubt but that the actual registraticn itself was a genuine feat. To register 5,080,000 men and women on the one day, and to do thie work effectively, and at less cost than a plebiscite or. an election cerâ€" tainly ‘should be set down as an achâ€" _ Follow.ng the usual plan followed ty the Union Government in its warâ€" fime enterprises the crganization for National Registration was started at Ottawa, and then delegated to the veveral provincer, who, in turn pasâ€" seli the work alcn: to the cities, towns, countries or other organized municipâ€" rlitie:. ‘Timmins at the time was a part of the immense District of Temiskaming, which stretthed from Latchford to James Bay. Dr. C. W. Haentschel, of Haileybury, was named as registrar for thoe District o. Temiskaming. He appointed H. E. Montgomery, then town clerk and treaurer of Timmins, as deputy registrar for the Timmins area. .Mr. Montgomery, in his turn, secured the assistance of D. A. Hogâ€" garth (principal of Timmins public schocl), Thos. H. Torrance (magisâ€" Lrato here in early days), H. C. Mc Donald, (manager Timmins branch of the Imperial Bank), J. P. Taillon (manager of the Timmins branch of the Bank of Commerce), B..V. . Harâ€" riton (then manager o. the Porcupine Telepr.ynb Co.), Geo. Wagner and Dayton Ostrosser. These assistants, in turn, enlited the help of a large number of otl::.er workers. Registration for Timmins, Moneta, Rochester anrnd Gillics Lake was held at the public school, Timmins, from 7 a. m. to 10 p. m. cn Saturday, June 22nd, 1918. The hours show the conâ€" sideration given the general pubile in the matter. That was typical of the timos and the people concerned. Another evidence of the thought for the public convenience is the fact that on the Wednesday, T:ursday and Friday preceding June 22nd, arrangeâ€" ments were made for any who found it convenient or necessary to register cn those days to do so at the clerk‘s offico then in the Courtemarche building, next to the Advance office, Literally hundreds took advantage of this convenience, and each of the three days there was a continual lineâ€"up before the office in the building that now houses the Mayfair hotel. On the Thursday t:e crown was so large that pressure became so great that the plate glass window in the office was broken. Of course there was no way 0. proving who was responsible for this damage, and no one tried too hard to find out. It is interesting to reâ€" call that none in the lineâ€"up were required to pay in whole or in part for the broken window. â€" The town simply had it replaced, charging the cost to profit and loss. "It just means a few less feet of sidewalk this year," said Councillior Brazeau. The accidental breaking of that winâ€" dow was only the outwnrq incident in al the registration. school on cleckwork: <~Thereâ€"waâ€"n‘t even a rush Of course, the registration was not £s simple or eatsy as it may sound now in reading about it. For example, there wero about forty questions that had to be answered by each man and lous to the registration, The Advance featured the e qu:sstions in its news columns, rtnd urged all to familiarize theme ves with the correct antWOs so that registration might be fa"fllated. In addition to questions as to age, place cf biri., date o. b.rth, marital condition, nationality, sace, cccupation, employer etz2.,. males . were »asked if they had physical their seria‘ number on being rcgistered unâ€" der the Mi.ltary Service Act, whethar or not they had been brought up on farm, and if could drive:a tractâ€" or, hanile horses, use farm machino y, and finally if they were willing to do farm work. _ Other que.tion§ inc:uded: "What other work can you do well?" and *"Do your circumstances penpit you to serve in th pro ent n:tional crisis by changing from your prescnt occupaticn to some other for which you are quailfied?" The questions for were much the samo as those for maies. Both seriecs tock notes the number of . children on the person regâ€" itering. The <lidies‘ questionairre asked: "Do your zea‘th and home ties permit you, if required, to give fullâ€"> time paid work?" ‘"Do your circumâ€" stances permit you to live away from home?" "In what capacity do you think you could sorve best?" "Can you drive a motor car? Tractor ?" "Can ycu do plain cooking?" The last question for females was "Do your cireumstances permit you to give fu.lâ€"time service without remunâ€" Why wasn‘t that question on the male side as well?, Although ncne of the deputy regâ€" istrars, or their deputies would say A word as to answers given, there werd rumours and reports of supposed reâ€" plies. One man was reported to have answered ‘"Yes!" to the four quesâ€" gions, "Single?" "Married?" "Widowâ€" er?" ‘"Divorced?" it must have been the same fe‘low who was credited with claim.ng that he was not a Briti h subject, but was a naturalized Irishâ€" man. But it was another who listed his physical disabilities as "Cold Feot!" Family Scerapbook Should Chi‘dren Be Allowed to Fight? Most o. us don,t like to see children fight. Our religious training, Our ideas of what is right are settling differences in t:is way. Some of us even feel that wars between nations would be less likely if all children were kept from fighting. [m‘cnaa’s‘cf / 2 m We believe â€"that a warlike spirit in adult life can be built up through childhsed â€" squabbling. But when young children are involved, there map be worse things than fighting _ â€" the pulling and hauling that goes on when two children want the same thing. If, for instance, teacher or parent sclwaps stops in and settles things, youngsters will be less likely to learn how to work out differences among themselves. _A study of nursery school children shows clearly that those in groups were no icufiling. pushing and hitting are allowed are more likely to continue a fighting attitude than those who are allowed to settle little differâ€" encts themselves, They seem to get the fighting urge out 0o: their systems if it isn‘t squelched to early. Unless children are hurting eac.a other badly or one youngster is compâ€" lete@y unable to defend himself, it seems best not to step in too soon when the dayâ€"toâ€"day quarrels develop.
