SEPT. 28th., 1921 ~Rumors have been currentâ€"regardâ€" ing the possibility of an early reâ€"open ing of the Sahumacher Mine, but there is nothing official in the way of announcement to uphold these theoâ€" ries, though it is true that the stock has risen considerably and there is steady demand even at the enhanced price.

From March, 1917, to July 15, 1918, the mill on the property treated 45,373 tons and recovered bullion to the amount of $242,060.84. . Operating costs for the same period totalled $234,021.33. At a recent annual meeting VicePreâ€" sident F. L. ‘Calver said that it was intended to ultimately sink the shaft to the 1000 or 1200â€"ft. level. The prospects for the success of the Schuâ€" macher at depth are considered as very favourable. At a special meetâ€" ing of the shareholders in November, 1918, a byâ€"law was ratified providing for the sale of 100,000 shares of treaâ€" wury stock at a discount of not more than 55 per cent., but no definite steps reeently have been announced to proâ€" vide finances for the reâ€"opening of the Behumacher.

Fitzpatrick ONTARIO to ne M and | raint« istern )0 ( ma A BRIEF MISTORY OF TRE _ POPULAR SAXE Of GQL Gold Used to be Known as ‘‘Crooks,‘‘ But Now Everybody But ‘‘Crooks‘‘ Plays It. ‘The many golf enthusiasts among the readers of The Adaynce will be interested in the following brief reâ€" view of the game of golf recently conâ€" tributed to The Broke Hustler:â€" The Origin of Golf The histery of golf and its remarkâ€" able popularity makes it the most uniâ€" versally played game in the world and the one ‘time belief that golf was merely a "‘fad‘‘ or a ‘"‘rich man‘s‘‘ game is an exploded theory. Golf. or ‘‘erooks‘‘ as it was oriâ€" h relate. But in 1400 A.D. a visitor to‘ the highlands would have seen the. green hillsides dotted with many flocks of sheep, and some where in the near vicinity a group of sheep herders, with short knot headed or curved sticks, called even then ‘‘elubs,‘‘ batâ€" ting rounded stones about, and finally worrying them into what appeared to be a gopher hole. These shepherds undoubtedly seemâ€" ed to the observer to be halfâ€"witted or awfully hard up for something to do to relieve them from the monotony of their daily tasks to indulge in such an insane appearing pastime. Whatever the ,observer‘s impresâ€" sions may have been, however, and because the fundamentals of human nature were the same then as now. ‘‘Curiosity,"‘ that impelling force which has contributed, to make our present civilization what it is, must have tempted the wayfarer to look on a bit; some must have tried a hand, and finding the apparently simple sport not so easy, (it was difficult even in those days for the ‘*‘old masâ€" ters‘‘ to get a ‘*‘One,‘‘) must have lingered a while through ""pride"‘ in an effort to become more proficient. It is probable that many out siders learned‘‘*Crooks‘* after much effort, and on returning to their own bailiâ€" wick or castle, in the lowlands, and elsewhere, it was but natural that they ‘‘boast‘‘ of their new accomâ€" plishment to all the town sharks, thereby arousing in the breast of said sharks green ‘‘envy.‘"‘ rame is Holf, rinally Slaved It is further but natural that they should forthwith carve themselves a brand new ‘‘club‘‘ and commence battinge stones through their neighâ€" bor‘s sheepskin windows to prove and make good their ‘*boasts.‘‘ Friend neishbors not toâ€" be out done and to retaliate in like kind, for those were the clad days of justice, ‘‘a tooth for a tooth‘‘ and a ‘‘clubbed stone on the pate for a elubbed stone on the pate,"‘ hied themselves to the wintery woo@s where they chose and whittled. â€"â€"a little bigger and better club. Entrance fees being unknown in these haleyon days, and ‘‘clubs‘‘ being cheap and self defense necessary, soon had everybody doing it. The First Club When the bandages ran out a truce seems to have developed by natural exhaustion, the ‘"Crook‘‘ bugs were banished. to vacant lots where proâ€" pinquity seems to have bred first toâ€" lorance, out of which grew an etiâ€" quette of, play, good fellowship soon resulted, courtesy followed and finalâ€" ly the whole combination of events created a keen competative sport. The present day etiquette of golf dates from this transformation period and the vacant lots are the ancestors of our present day golf course. About this time wooden cored balls with leaâ€" ther eovers, replaced the rounded stones; ‘‘club‘‘ heads were made with a straight face; vacant lots not being as level or as smooth as *‘ Seotty‘s" back yard, the little leather pill had a tendency to hide away, in the hoof prints of the herds; ‘‘Cuppy Clubs‘‘ were developed, to meet this condiâ€" tion, and worked well whenever the ball was formed. (Note: It is a fable in the old country that the best golf sticks of the present day are made from the wood of the trees that spring from some old ‘‘crook‘"‘ star‘s l]ost woodenâ€"cored balls.

The following is from the last issue of The Sudbury Star:â€" A pretty wedding was solemnized in St. Ann‘s chureh Monday morning when Bertha, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Lefebyvre, became the bride of Mr. Alex. T. Laronde, Rev. Father Desjardins »officiating. !The bridal party entered the chureh to the strains of. Mendelssohn‘s wedding march, played by Miss Vigneault. The bride, who was given away by hex eldest _ brother, Lawrence, looked charming in a tailored suit of navy blue tricotine with dark brown hat and fox fur. She earried a bouquet of Americ¢an Beauty roses, and was unattended. During the mass a solo was rendered by Mrs. J. C. Gravel and hymns were sung by the Children of Mary, of which society the bride was president. After the ceremony a delicious wedding breakfast was served at the home of the groom‘s parents to the immediate friends and relatives. Mr.‘and Mrs. Laronde left on the early train for Timmins where they will make their home. The young couple received numerous handsome presents, testifying to their popularâ€" ity in Sudbury."

PRETTY WEDDING LAST MONDAY AT SUDBURY CONSIDERABLE INTEREST IN MONETAâ€"PORCUPINE MINE There have been many rumors reâ€" cently in regard to the Moneta Porâ€" cupine Mine. One rumor to the effect that certain important financial interâ€" ests were seeking a large block of the Moneta stock with a view to contro. and inaugurating an energetic deveâ€" lopment campaign on the property has been discussed with much general interest. There is however, no official announcement in the matter and so all the tales may be set down as. no more than street talk, though many would make them true if wishing could do it. In any event there is a general feeling that the Moneta is too promising a property and too wellâ€" located to be left unworked these days. Theâ€" Moneta iPoreupine (Mines, Limited, is capitalized at $2,000,000, the capital issued being $1,541,000.00. The company owns 120 acres adjoinâ€" ing the Hollinger on the West. There is a shaft down on the property 120 feet with about 500 feet of underâ€" ground workings. Sir Henry Pellatt was formerly the president andâ€" in general control of the company‘s poâ€" liey. It is understood, however, that the Steindler interests of New York are now in control. From its location dor to the wideâ€"spread interest in golf.
