TIHE PORCUPINE ADVANCE e 4 The growth of the gold mifing inâ€" â€" lustry of Ontario during the/past ten â€" years is remarkable. In speaking of ~. Ontario‘s gold inining industry, it is well to bear in mind that this industry is centered in the two ecamps of Porâ€" _ eupine and Kirkland Lake, with Porâ€" eupine far in the lead as a producer. In 1912, Ontario‘s gold output totalâ€" _ led 96,523 ounces. In 1913, this had i grown to 219,601 ounces; 1914 it was **«x258,264 ounces; 1915, 406,577 ounces; 1916, 492,481 ounces. 1917 and 1918 showed slight decreases from 1916, ‘ the figures being 423,261 and 411,976 _ sespectively. In 1919 and. 1920 the figures climbed past the 1916 record, â€" _ 505,739 ounces being produced in 1919 ~Nand 5561,959\ ounces in 1920, The year ~ 1921 weclipsed all records showing a _ ‘total production of 709,509 ounces. " Even the latter imposing figure, how. _ ever, is only the beginning, as it were, _. of .the real record gold production of _ the North Land. From present indiâ€" _ eations the production this year will â€"_ greatly exceed that of last year. 1_ MEETING FRIOAY NIGHT TIMMINS FOOTBALL CLUB _A generalimeeting of the Timmins Football Club is called for Friday evening of this week, April 7th, in the Council Chamber, Timmins, for the purpose of adjusting the Executive for the season,.

There are a large number of good players in the Camp, and the local league with its three teams will allow for a place on some team or other for every playâ€" eér. ) It will aiso provide the best kind of practice gianies and Timmins may well expect this year to make a good showing in the District League,â€"tho N.Q.F.A .â€" In fact. there are many who count upon Timmins this year winâ€" ing several trophies, but in any case there is a practical certainty of a first elass season of good sport. - €o Complets Election of Executive For Season. Many families in town no doubt have clothing outgrown by their childâ€" ren but still good. They would be pleased to give the clothing if they knew just where it could be used to advantage. On the other hand, the Children‘s Aid Society could often use clothing for the benefit of childâ€" ren coming to the notice of the Socieâ€" ty. To accommodate both the needs of the Society and those who are ready to give clothing, arrangements have been made with Mr. C. 8. Carter to take in at the public school here any clothing that may be donated by the good people of the district.

FULL POWER ASGURED AGAIN IN COUPLE OF DAYS Weather This Weak Has Settled The Shortage for this Season. y=~The weather th'ks week has given good service to the Poreupine Camp in regard to the power situation. For some days past the mines have been inconverienced by a reduction in the power available owing to shortage of water. On March 19th, a reduction of thirty per cent. in the power supplied was made at the mines here. In view of the auxiliary steam plants at the mines the reduction was not as seâ€" rious as it would otherwise have been, but still it was a bhandicap. The hbig breakâ€"up this week, however, has proâ€" vided a new supply of water and the levels are fast getting up to normal. It is expected that in a couple of days there will be a sufficient. reserve of water to permit the regular supply of power. The officials of the Northâ€" ern Canada Power Co. toâ€"day said that there was every probability of the full supply of power beingâ€"availâ€" able again this week,â€"in a couple of days in all likelihood. ~Only a very seâ€" vere frost would upset this,â€"a much more severe frost tham is likely at this time of year. With ordinary spring weather there will be ample power gvailable for all present uses in the course of the next couple of days, and the full supply will again be ready for the mines as previous to the reâ€" duction a eouple of week ago. .\ Du eren i he wearher tn'ks we rood service to the Por n regard to the power s ome days past the mir neonvenienced by a red ower available owing t vater. ‘On March 19th, : T Two newâ€" andâ€" upâ€"toâ€"date secondâ€" ind dealers, offer the following won »rful bargains in used cars for prosâ€" 12€ urme ns concé the past few months the dif neerts given by the Timmin Band and by the Schroede is have been very much en usedâ€"runabout, now very much enâ€" It will accordâ€" news to all muâ€" ct to learn that | the Scehroeder Wwith TIMMINS, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5th 1922.

They‘re all doing it now, though none of them like it, and none of them want to. But half the police in the district seem to be on the sick list this week. Officer Roy went home ill on Saturday and has been corfined to the house with a touch of grippe since. Officer Bennétt, of Schumacher, is also ill in bed with grippe.

The Davidson and other proâ€" perties are also expected to add to the activities of the C@@mp. In addition, of course, there are a number of new properties that are likely to see deâ€" velopment work, and there is a good possibility that some former producâ€" ers, like the Schumacher for instance may also get in the/ running. In any case much progress and development may be expected in the Camp this The V,N.T. reâ€"opened last week, with Mr. N. J. Everard,; E. M., in charge.. A foree of miners has been engaged and dewatering of the mine is under way. In a couple of weeks it is expected that extensjive under. ground work will be gone on with. The reâ€"opening of the V.N.T. is very rightly considered as a very importâ€" ant matter for the Camp. _ .; The Poreupine Crown‘s ‘reâ€"opening is also a pleasing instance of the genâ€" eral activity in the Camp. It. is unâ€" derstood that the Crown will carry out an extensive development proâ€" eramme. The differences between the Crown and the Thompsonâ€"Krist inter. ests are understood to have «all been satisfactorily adjusted and the amalâ€" may vear. RENEWED AGCTIVITY N THE PORCUPINE CAMP gamated properties will be developed along general lines to success. The taking over of the control of the Goldale interests by the Lewisâ€" olhns is also generally viewed as a proâ€" mising factor in the development of the Camp. The Lewisohns have had a noteworthy eareer in mine developâ€" menutâ€" in Cobalt fand other imining camps, They control now some fifty promising properties in the Poreupine and there is every chance that they will centre on some of these for deâ€" velopment. 4 SUDBURY UNEMPLOYED RIOT WHEN FOOD STOPPED #=For some time past the Town of Sudbury has been extending relief to a.large number of men. So far as possible work was provided and the opportunity thus given for the ‘men to earn a bare existence at least. Last week the Sudbury Town Council deâ€" cided that enough had been dones by the Town and the relief measures werewclosed off. FWollowing this a crowd. of 100 to 150 men visited a number of restaurants and created what will technically be ealled a riot. In one restaurant food was ordered by a number of men and then the Chiâ€" namen in charge were told that the customers had no money and so could nmot pay. In other cases the Chinamen when assured by tne UCiier Of Poilce that they would not hbe allowed to starve under any cirenumstances. Three men were arrestéd and have been committed for trial on charges in conâ€" nection with the trouble. As an inâ€" teresting sidelight another man lias been sentenced to thirty days in jail for obtaining food under false preâ€" tences. He got free meals from the Town but had some six or seven dolâ€" lars in his pocket at the time. At preâ€" sent Sudbury is feeding between 200 and 300 men who are out of. work for one reason or other, chiefly the latâ€" ter. Sudbury has spent a lot of money this year looking u@ter relief work, though undoubtedly much of the reâ€" lief necessary is for cases where those concernefU are very recent résidents} In a town like Sudbury the municipalâ€" ity always "suffers from the attitude of the Government towards unorganâ€" ized sections. Sudbury is apparently too humane to allow even a man from an unorganized district to starve to death. But the Ontario Government is evidently not so humane. The Onâ€" tario Government thinks ‘‘starving to death"‘ a secondary matter compared to the enforeement of the O.T.A. » to property moned, but with the weT BORNâ€"At the Cairns Hospital, Timâ€" mins, on March 31st., 1922, to Mr. and Mrs. Richard O‘Connor,â€"a son. ) y o s had no money and so couid In other cases the Chinamen iulted and some damage done rty.

As may be gathered from the noâ€" tice elsewhere in this issue the rateâ€" payers of the Town of Timmins will vote on the matter of the renewal of the Telephone Franchise on Monday, May 15th. The polls for voting will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The terms of the proposed agreement are practically the same as in the franâ€" chiseiwhich expired last ‘year. The proposed new franchise, or renewal, is for a period of five years from the first day of June, 1922. The maximum rates to be charged in the municipalâ€" ity are set by the agreement, and the Company agrees to maintain its teleâ€" phoné system in at least as good and efficient condition as it is at the preâ€" There is a staff of over 30, hard at work at the Paymaster Mine in Deloâ€" ro.

The matter of clothing for children coming to the notice of the Society was referred to. There were often calls for all kindg of elothing and usually the clothing was needed in a hurry.
