SEES| BRIGHTER MINE OUTLOOK Earl H. Hutchinson Thinks Ore Mill Will Be Great Help To Wide Area. HIGEWAY TO LAKEHEAD NEARING REALIZATION (Ft. William Times-Journal) Marked revival of interest in mining and progressive efforts toward development of gold and iron ore resources form the most promising picture on the horizon of Nortawestern Ontario, says Earl Hutchinson, Labor M.L.A. head of the lakes today. Mr. Hutchinson is enroute to Toronto to attend the sessions of the Ontario legislature that opens Wednesday. He is spending the day in the city and will continue his journey to the Ontario capi- tal tomorrow morning. ""My principal purpose in stopping off at Fort William," c¢aid Mr. Hutchinson to ihe Times-Journal, "is to see the ore pulverizing mill recently install- ed here by N. M. Paterson. The people of Kenora and Dryden are interested in this forward move in mining and are enthus- ed over the possibilities in iron ore development." | Bill Fishwick pushes a pencil, THE 15.2 CAMP SONG (Continued from Page 1) And calls himself the clerk, But we try in vain to eatch him, When he's doing a little work.

New Hope Seen If these ventures ful, said the Kenora M.LLA., the future of Northwestern Ontario, will brighten perceptibly. Per- fection of the small and inex- pensive type of ore mill should give new hope for the promising ties that dot the whole region and Kenora, he believed. Mr. Hutchinson also met witn the board of parks management this afternoon to discuss the pro- posal that buffalo from western Canada be liberated in the re- gion north of here as an added attraction for tourist traffic.
