ANGLICAN HL. REUNION BANQUET HELD LAST NIGHT (Continued from page 1) to a very able and lucid address on friendship, stressing the fact that it was something to be cherished and cultivated in early life. One of the outstanding examples of friendship was told, he asserted, in the story of Damon and Pythias in which a man entertained such a friendship for another that he want- ed to die for his friend. 1): life story of Arthur Hallam and Lord Tennyson was another striking ex- ample in which the death of Hal- lam placed a blight fon the life of Tennyson, but brought out the best of Tennyson's poetic art, which showed only too plainly the love that existed between them. The history of the death of Caesar at the hands of Brutus was an example of the love of a man for his coun- try, as Brutus had a love that fore- ed him to kill his best friend. There were many such Pp stances of love to be found, Mr. Cannon said, that are almost of too high an order for the comprehension of modern people. Value of Friendship "Do we in the hurry of our lives appreciate the true value of friend- oh asked Mr, Cannon, who maintained that a young man often feels. that he does not need many friends, but as he grows older he comes to the realization that they are harder to cultivate. In giving a definition of true friendship the speaker picked out three basic prin- ciples on which true friendship could be judged. The first of these, he said, was "peace in your affections." That peace was to be obtained in being able to unburden oneself to friends. At some time or another every man has to tell his troubles and worries to someone and as'is too often the case we unload to the wrong people and at the wrong time. To be able to freely talk with others is the peace of one's affections, he said. Friends in N In time of need, when advice is necessary ,a real friend will tell us the right course to follow and that is "support in your judgments" which was the second mark of friendship. The third mark of true friendship, Mr. Cannon asserted was "aid in times of difficulty." There are so manv friends who stay with us only when the way is smooth but desert us when the way becomes rough ~&J difficult. Aid given to a friend is the culmination of a true friendship, he maintained, Man's best friend is his mother, for it is through her that we live and have our being, and it should be remembered that she is our first and best friend. We should be con- siderate of her on all occasions and try to spare her those heartaches which we so often heedlessly cause her. Jealousy sometimes creeps in between friends, Mr. Cannon said, but it usually takes three to pro- duce them and by getting down to the true cause in most cases it is found to be trivial and can be rem- edied so that those twinges of the | | EAST WHITBY TOWNSHIP | GAS FRANCHISE BYLAW On October 30, the electors of East Whitby Township will vote on a bylaw to grant to Ben E. Tate, acting for the Ontario Shore Gas Company, a franchise to supply and distribute gas in the township. Why It Is Necessary This Franchise is necessary to give Ontario Shore Gas Company the power to distribute gas in East Whitby Township, not only from the gas pipe transmission lines running east and west of Oshawa, but also by extensions of the Oshawa distribution system to serve the sections of the township adjacent to Oshawa. Without this franchise, the gas company could no longer serve its customers in Westmount area. The Bylaw must be carried to enable that service to continue. It Means Service The passing of this bylaw makes possible for East Whitby township a supply of the modern economis cal home fuel, gas, at a reasonable price, The bylaw provides that the prices to be charged will be the same as that for consumers in Oshawa. It means an expansion of the vice to include areas which cannot now be served with gas. It Means Employment Ontario Shore Gas Company has already provided much employment for the men of East Whitby. The passing of this bylaw, making possible new gas connections and extensions, will provide further employment, and the company is obligated, by agreement with the township council, to employ only East Whitby men in the installation of the gas system in East Whitby. | Voting Day: FRI., OCT. 30 ~ --WORK AND VOTE~ For The Gas Franchise Bylaw company's distribution ser. » heart which are so hard to endure can be avoided. , : A man should be a good friend of his church as participation in the activities of the organizations ed with it would be an aid to himself and a service to others. Mr. Cannon appealed to his audi- ence to make friends early and to strive to keep them as man cannot get along without friends; for as Bacon said "The man who loves solitude is a beast or a God," and as Mr. Cannon pointed out the hu- man race are men and must have friends to hold in his inmost thoughts. Following Mr, Cannon's address Heydon MacDonald, president of the club, expressed the thanks of the executive of all those who by their co-operation had made the banquet a success and asserted that the idea should be carried out each year as an annual dinner. He also stated that the club would again this year present a minstrel show under the leadership of Harold Smith and Robert Stacey. Other years in the history of the club were recalled as the members took part in a sing-song in which numbers that had been presented in the shows in other years were sung with "Bill" Snell, "Bill" Gibbie, Walter Jackson, Norman Walker, "Les" Hartley, Norman Merrick and Harold Smith taking the lead- ing roles. Piano solos by Robert Stacey and accordeon solos by J. Askew and vocal solos by Geo. Walsh added much to the enjoy- ment of the evening. A feature of the program was the performance of several members of the Oshawa Harmonica Band whose selections proved to be greatly appreciated The playing of three members of the band on a six foot harmonica was very good, BEAR LAKE READY FOR SPRING RUSH Newest Mining Field Is on Most Northerly of Inland S:as Waterways, Alta. -- Although Great Bear Lake, centre of latest mining finds which is expecting a big rush in the spring, is the most northerly of Canada's in- land seas, it is far from difficult of access, work, which are already being de- veloped In preparation for the ex- pected rush. V H. Patrlarche, airman who has done extensive flying in the territory, points out Great Bear Lake actually perches astride the Arctic Circle, covering some 12,000 square miles of the North West Territories with clear bluish | green water, But it is by no means the remote, frozen north- land of the magazines. Mackenzie River boat services, and the Air Mail. Ocean going vessels from the Pacific ports can reach the mouth of the Copper- mine River, 120 miles to the North East; while by direct air route it is only one day's flight | from the rallhead at Waterways, Alherta. That the rush will come is evi- dent from the enquiries that con- tinue to pour in to transportation offices, Canada's own mining companies lead in the field, but even from California and the East ern States have come queries re- garding routes and ways of trav- | el into the new area of activity. | Some, who desired to go in im- | mediately, have failed to secure transportation owing to the diffi- culty of clearing those camps which were not prepared to win- |. ter in the country. Recent weeks have been spent by the aerial operators in taking in the final shipments of food, and bringing out the men who are not staying in over the "freeze-up." Preparations are already under way for the next year's work, and plans being made for the win- ter freighting. From the time when the first planes are able to got away on skis, the movement of supplies and machinery will-be- gin, followed, as the spring ap- proaches, by prospecting parties to be first on the ground when the snow begins to melt. From the fleld-man's point of view the country is ideal. It is Do you know that Jury and Lovell have permanently on their staf a competent Beauty Counsellor?

The Eastern shore of the lake, where the work has centred, is broken, rock country, with hills'up"to ap- proximately a thousand feet in height. The wate. is deep, and cwing tothe size of the lake a heavy sea may develop, but there are excellent harbors and shelter- ed passages all along this side, and transportation is little affec- ted. The ploneer companies natur- ally have a considerable advan- tage in their knowledge of the country, and their geological da- ta is jealously guarded; but many of the newcomers from other fields have simply camped and staked. The diamond drilling and blasting that has been carried out during the past summer on several properties has shown re- eults wihch, while still unofficial, are known to have more than borne out the first hopes of thelr discoverers. Gusoline, at present, costs $3.- 15 a gallon, and food averages about $2.00 a ponud; but with increasing volume the rates both for passengers and freight will come down; and the coming year, depression or no depression, the hitherto. untouched natyral re- sources of the Great Bear ¢ountry show. every indication of at last coming into their own. PITCHBLENDE BENS PRAISED Northwest Deposits Are Held Valuable Radium Source Ottawa.--The pitchblende de- posits at La Bine Point on Great Bear Lake, Northwest Territor- fes, constitute "a very valuable source of radium," according to the report of Hugh S. Spence, mineral technologist of the Mines Branch, who made a study of the discoveries at that place during August of this year, In dealing with the economic aspect of the development at La Bine Point, Mr. Spence reported: "Beyond any question the pitch- blende deposits at La Bine Point constitute a very valuable source of radium, At the present value of radium, ore could easily meet the cost of shipment to rail-- $400 per ton. Improved trans- portation facilities, however, will have to be provided if serious production is to be attained. "At present only a small gas boat drawing a 10-ton capacity scow is available for shipment DODD'S across Great Bear Lake to Fort Norman, and ore has to be handled several times, Large tugs and scows will be required on the lake, and a truck road 'or light railway is suggested as the best means of overcoming the rapids difficulty on Great Bear River.
