”I. In. MILLS SAYS THAT NORTH GETS SQUARE DEAL. Canadian press despatchee credit; Hon. Harry Mills, Minister of Mines in the Ontario Government, with sug- gesting that New Ontario got a square deal in regard to the amount of re- venue spent on developing the country in comparison to the revenue derived by the Government from this part of the Province. He tried to make it dear that the revenue of New Ontario for some years past had totalled $13, $512,589, while the expenditures had been about $14,000,000 in the same period. In 1913 and 1914 the revenue was $2,447,000 hnd the expenditire 82,548,000. In 1015 and 1910 the re- venue was $2,342,000 and the expen- diture $1,906,620. In 1917 and 1918 he said the receipts and expenditures broke about even. In 1919 the expen- ditures were several hundred thour Case was gone. the audience nasp:d with surprise to find that her voice had been com- ing from the New Edison. And no one could tell the difference! This test of direct, compari- sonwas made by Anna Case, world-famous Kprano, be- fore 2500 people, at Car- negie Hall, New York City, on March 10, 1920.

This marvelous phonograph can give the family more pleasure than any other instrument you can buy them for Christmas. Here is why: ' . This phonograph has actually proved that it can match the performance of th::: living artist-and match it so perfectly that no one can tell its RE- CREATION from the living performance. It did this on March 10, 1920 before 2500 people at Carnegie Hall, New York City-wi th Anna Case, the world- famed soprano. It did this on Sep- tember 30th, 1919, before 2500 people at Carnegie Hall, Pittsburgh .--with Mr. Santa" Claus!! Carre in and hear the phonograph that it You’ll be able to recognize its superiority with your own eartr---in every kind of vocal and instrumental music. Come in and nee whether this isn't so. we'll gladly give you Mr. Edison's famous Realism Test. Test It Yourself and dollars- less than the revenue. Either deliberately or 'otherwiae, the Minister attempted to beeloud the issue by making comparisons of the revenue and expenditures in terms of their relation to the revenue and ex- penditure of the province for the dif- ferent years referred to. F y ins- tance, he said that in 1919 the revenue from the New Ontario part of the Province was 813, per cent. of the total revenue, while the expenditures on the North were 8 per cent. At first glance these figures look fairly close together. As a. matter of fact they are hun.. dreds of thousands of dollars apart. The.se statements attributed to Hon. Mr. Mills will rouse many to investig- ation and eorviideration of the actual revenues and expenditures so far as they can be gleaned from the Govern- ment reports. The story these figures will tell will have an altogether differ- "nt-suggestion to that in the remarks , , . - ,.- 1'.“ _ a I 'RIB I 41, - - - -ii5li. - . - . " my E ip. f - ' . W Xi " " .

You can read the facts of these amazing achievements in the leading newspapers of the United States and Canada. They are the talk of the music and scientific world. And the phonograph?

The North Land has never been fairly treated by the Government of Ontario, and is not being fairly treated now The North Land will keep on object- ing until it does receive something like a fair deal. in the despatehes referring to Hon. Mr. Mills and his "fair deal" figures, there is also an announcement by Mr. Francis Keefer, M. P., to the effect that he Was calling the Central Canada Colonization and Highways Association to organize a movement for the creation of a separ- ate province as he was not. in favour of long distance government from To- ronto. Mr. Keefer will find consider- able support for any such movement. Practically everybody in the North Land who thinks and cares about this country and its progress and develop: ment is just about "fed up" with the lack of knowledge, the lack of inter- est and the lack of consideration Money Help TEE POROUPIN'B ADVANOI Spceial mention was made in the iast issue of The Pas (Manitoba) lurald of tne Hudson Bay Dog Derby _ut' 1921.

But the Porcupine Dog Rare has yet tohe heard from for 1921. It will " so be a big event, with as much sport and good dogs, even if with less money as prizes. There used to be a number of dog, team rapes in the Northern part of this continent? but now the, Pas and the Porcupine are the two big ones left to share the hon ours and they are too far apart to fight over which is which. Last year, however, one of the dog ruee winners here was considering the possibility of getting out, to the Pas on a trip and bringing home the cups and the money to the Porcupine. He may be able to do it this year. 4.5m ' owwoomuum.‘ P1 a 'ld, ' Sewing y‘Machines Meets every Tuesday evening in the Oddfellows Hall, Third Avcttue. Visiting hrethn-n requested to mum]. Geo. S.
