One touch of sunshine and the whole north will burst out into Spring. The floods are the topic of conversation all around. We oldâ€"timers have seen the creek and the surrounding flat lands showing canoes taking passengers down Railway St. to the station. It has not come to that this year. Since the township has raised the roadway bringing it well up above flood level, and the bridge on Railway St., and the siqewalks, a pedestrian need not wet his feet. o o o i o e t fl":“ 11CUCVU VVVV AiA1} A Ne Lowlying Broderick St. is flooded, but the sidewalk is still above water, and one or two very old houses shacks in the area of the mouth of the creek are surrounded. Township officials say that the cause of the flood (primâ€" arily of course the snowfall in the bush) is the fact that the Porcupine river which flows from Porcupine Lake is still coated with ice, and the waiter in the lake which has pushed the ice three feet above normal level, cannot get away. If the river ice does not break within four days then south Enders may expect a réal flood. )â€" 28 Third Ave. S. A. Caldbick, K. C. C. W. Yates, B. A. BARRISTERS SOLICITORS ETC. William Shub, B.
