This may not be particularly impressed:-on the People here, but when one of our citizens goes forth into other parts of the Dominion and sees conditions as they are, he readily senses the difference which ex- ists. With the undisputed de-~ pression in the large cities and the general slackness of business throughout the smaller centres,, with the unemployment problems which are serious over a_ great portion of the country, we are happily' unfamiliar.

While it is true that familiarity breeds comtempt in most things, jas shown by the way in which people residing near points of in- terest frequently ignore the at- tractions' which others travel miles to see, It is no doubt true that residents of Niagara Falls do not bother to look at the falls, thousands of Toronto people nev- er visit the Exhibition, and prob- ably hundreds of thousands of Londoners have never seen. the Tower of London, still very few people in Haileybury are ignorant of the charm of our own Lake Temiskaming. : Still there are doubtless hund- reds who have never seen their own town from the decks of the Lake steamers, partly due to the fact that few excursions are pro- vided. To all such, the opportun- ity offered of a delightful sail on the Lake on Friday night should not be missed. There is no finer scenery in Ontario than that around our own bounded resources Which are be- ing gradually brought into use} have to a large extent made us| independent and kept us from| suffering the very general unsat-} which isfactory conditions are found in many other parts of the} world | Here in Haileybury we are} particularly fortunate in that we have a certain amsunt of building going on which helps to provide} work. There are very few men who have not employment of one} kind or another and, while some} may not be following their chos-| en occupation, they are at least catrying on and keeping up with| their living expenses. The busi- ness people are at least reason- ably busy and tlie town un- doubte lly agspering. Pethar§ a sreat deal of the local efjvity is due in\part to the --epirit of co-operation which is a feature of this locality. In Hail- eykury there' is a community spirit whieh has served the town well in times past and which will continue to prove of the greatest benefit. parent at times to the casual ob- server, to those who have spent some years here and who been in a position to closely ob- serve the ways of the residents there is evident that true spirit is in the end, lead her on to greater things. --_--_$_-- LETTER TO THE EDITOR Haileybury, July 20, 1925 The Editor, "Haileyburian" Dear Sir: When taking a trip into the bush one is often struck by' the fore interesting to note that there is One spot in this town which is||B frequented by many varieties of birds during the summer, and Whose presence is very welcome.

To properly see Haileybury the best way to view it is from the Lake, and the rest- ful influence of a couple of hours' | ride on the Lake is worth all that is charged for the trip.

'Chance for Fine Trip! Notes of The North The third annua] Farmers' Day beld in Iroquois Falls was remar- kable fer one. thing--that. five men who Bave made a - careful! study for ten years or over of -ag- rieulture in Northern Ontario were very emphatic that, there was no part of Canada which of- fered greater possibilities to. the farmers than the clay belt; that 'in spite of the present difficulties the settlers had to face, the _fu- ture was very bright, -especially along the lines of dairy and stock farming.--Jroqaois Falls Broke Hustler. , Work is now in good progress on the.construction of the road between South Porcupine- and Timmins. The contractors say the road will be completed. by September. Pfevious to. July 1, the road was closed so-as.to ad- vance the transportation ef ma- chinery, materials, etc., to the River Road section, which is now practically completed and work is now centred on the completion of the section from South Pore cupine to the subway at Timmins. --Porcupine Advance.

The camp will be | held as usual at the head of Long |Lake at the home of Mr. True- |man Gibbons, who has once,more consented to allow the Troop to juse his premises.

The place chosen is the farm of Mr. T.eE. Cragg, Thornloe. This should be a central point-and a large entry is looked for. The plowing match is under the aus- pices of the Temiskaming Plow- men's Association and-should be strongly supported by the farm- ers of the district--New Liskeard Speaker. Se Plenty of Tenders for Work on the New Trunk Road No contracts had been let. on the trunk road up to the time of going to press, according to the engineers in charge of the work on the section between Temaga- mi and Latchford. There are a large number of tenders and there are plenty of men to do the work, so that it is likely to be rushed to completion as soon as the contracts are let. Tenders for the more southern section, from Mileage 60 to Mile- age 80, were to be closed on Fri- day last. These two sections, which are to be I€t in stretches of approximately five miles each, will comprise the proportion of the road which it is the intention to-complete-this year. It is the intention of the government to haye the road completed ove; the whole distance from North Bay to Cobalt before' the end of 1926. labia - About Pest of Woods ~In this season of? vacattow's; when maty 'people are betaking themselves to the woods ° and streams, the following informa- tion' oni' dne' of 'the pests" of _ the forest frow-the Botanical Divi- sion of the Central Experimental Farm should prove of help in a- voiding--the disastrous results which many have experienced: "Year after year as folks fare (forth to camp or summer coteage interest in poison ivy revives. applied before growth becomes too dense, or after mowing it with a scythe. .

Small patches have thus been cleared up at one oper- ation, which would have required repeated spraying. hmany have yet to learn to recog- nize these low, bustiy, slightly woody - stemmed plants, rising from long rootstocks at or just below ground level, and bearing the characteristic leaves of triple, smoothish pointed leaflets, and frequently the old clusters of round, whitish fruits. beneath them. { 5 Failing to recognize and avoid the plants, many people, suscept- ible to poisoning, find themselves presently interested in remedies. Few seem to be aware that on contact with the weed, or even with shoes, tools, etc., that havé been in contact, they should promptly remove all traces ef its virulent oil by freely lathering the skin with strong soap, and rinsing under hot running, or constantly changed water. In- flamation' resulting from unsus- pected exposure, or neglect of the above precautions, may be relieved by applying solutiens of baking soda-or-Epsom salts, one or two teaspoonfuls to a cup of water, and bandaging. Various elaborate treatments are offered which are seldom any more help- ful, or so réadily available. It is surprising how few efforts are made to clean up ivy from constantly frequented public and private grounds. Though eradi- cation is bound to be laborous, there are plenty of people who could safely work at it.
