If we are to have the greater 'part of the vacant areas in town brought under cultivation, the extra hour of daylight in the summer evenings shauld be of considerable help. ( So far-there has been no offi- cial action and, no attempt at getting together on the question. In many towns and cities day- light saving comes as regularly as the summer and it 'only re- quires a little adjustmnet in spring and fall and causes only slight confusion. It allows more time in the evenings for athletics and permits the inside workers a much better opportunity of spen- ding a portion-of each day in the open air. 't would appear that if the three towns could get together on the question that very little of education along lines of con- servation of our forests, Resi- dents of Haileybury and the dist- rict should need no reminder of the ever present menace of the fire fiend, but we are apt to for- set too-€asily the lessons learned through bitter experience. Al- ready we have more or less dim- med-recolléetions of the disaster which visited the country three and a half years ago, and this is probably for our geod, However, we should bea*+i mind the fact that we havé no assurance a- gainst a recurrence of these ser- ious times and there are a great many sections of the country where there is greater danger of serious loss of property, and even of life, from the fire menace. The propaganda which is being disseminated throughout the Do- minion this week should be taken to heart by every good citizen, particularly those whose work or pleasure takes them into the woods for a part of the summer. One careless action may easily result in great loss to an entire community. It should be remem- bered at all times that a large perecentage of our population depends, directly or indirectly, on the products of the forest for their daily sustenance, and that any act of ours which tends to destroy any part of our forest areas may result in serious loss to a great many people. | Al- though the first dangerous period of the year has stot arrived yet, so far as ourenBi® slistrict is con- eerned, the time is ripe for thought and planning as to what measures may be taken when the danger becomes real. Let us all be conservationists this year and each do his part in the effort be- ing made to reduce our fire losses and thus assist in ensuring fut- ure prosperity for the Dominion as a whole. ag ; Whatever the politicians may say, there are at least two clauses in the budget brought down in the House of Commons last week that are hailed with delight by the great majority of people. One is the announcement of the reduction in the income tax,.and the other is the abolition of the stamp tax on receipts and the re- turn to "penny postage." The receipt tax was generally considered more of a nuisance than a burden, and was the cause of several letters of a warning nature being sent out to delin- quents, although there have been few prosecutions for infringe- ments of the Jaw in this respect. The extra postage, however, has been a real burden, one that was borne by all alike, and it has been a source of disappointment. in Canada for several years now to see other countrie® return to the old system of pre-war days, while we continued to pay the extra cent on every letter or post card. This is to be remedied on July Ist, and is, as stated by the Hon. Mr. Robb, a fitting celebration of Dominion Day and one that will be truly welcomed. ee ae A week or two ago the Kiwanis Club of Cobalt had a discussion on the question of daylight sav- ing. A report of their talk stat- ed that a movement was to be started with the object of getting the three towns, Cobalt, Hailey- bury and New Liskeard, to come to an agreement whereby a mea- sure of daylight saving might be inaugurated with little or no con- fusion. This would, no. doubt, meet with opposition in some quarters, but would perhaps be highly satisfactory in others. Perhaps the chief objection would be the fact that the railways continue on standard time. From recent events in Hailey- 'bury, it would appear that the, proposition might be favorably received here. The town council has taken steps to encourage the confusion should result, and _ if there is to be any such arrange- Latte: it should be made with as little delay as possible. LEST WE FORGET In viewing the wonders of a resurrected Haileybury, I wand- ered into the new County Build- ings, built on the site where stood the first house in town and as I stood on the steps of the south entrance I thought of the many times I had enjoyed the hospitality of that first house when it stod alone on the hillside and the light from its windows at night was a guiding star to many a weary traveller when the lake was the only road the hardy nor- thern men had to travel. I refer to the one-time home of the late C. C. Farr, the founder of Hailey- bury. He it was who brought to the attention of the Govern- ment the importance of this part of the Province, and owing to his vision, far-sightedness, persis- tence and energy, the Govern- ment built the T. & N. O. Rail- way, now the best-paying Goy- ernment-owned road in the Dom- inion. He it was who gave the beautiful name the town bears, called for his alma mater in Eng- land from which he graduated at a very early age. He published the first paper in the North Coun- try. He brought some of the very best citizens Haileybury can boast of. His home always stood for hospitality and culture. His was the first musical instrument brought into the then wilds. In his home were held the first church services. He was the first Magistrate, post-master, store- keeper, mill-owner, fur trader, and farmer. These are only some of the things accomplished by a youth who came from England in '73 with little more than his health, intelligence and hands and gave the best that was in him to build up and make Haileybury prosper. And how well he succeeeded, none should know better than you who make her your home. As an old-timer who personal- jly knows these things, I think it would be a fitting tribute to his memory that there should be a tablet in the County Buildings. Surely Haileybury will not be found wanting in gratitude to her founder. AN OLD-TIMER "THE BROADCASTER" HIGH SCHOOL PAPER MADE BOW LAST WEEK The first issue of "The Broad- caster," the new paper published by the students of the Haileybury High School made its bow to the public last week. It consists of an eight-page sheet written and directed entirely by the students and contains a great deal of in- teresting material from the point of view of the school and the general public as well. Miss Nor- ma Reany is the editor, Archie Williamson is advertising manag- er and Jim Poppleton is the busi- ness manager. Associate editors are Miss Grace Stephen and Miss Helene Angus. The first issue contains a great deal of interesting reading. Sev- eral colymns are devoted to sport, there is some poetry and matters pertaining to each form are treated humorously by the writ- ers. There is some editorial matter and considerable news of the school that does not become generally known through any other source. Taken altogether, the students are to be congratu- lated on the first issue of "The Broadcaster." Copies are now on sale at the news stands. tention to publish the paper each month during the school term. ¥ It is the | Africa's Wild Savages Stage Revels for Prince of Wales Sheriff's Sale of Lands Provisional Judicial District of Temiskaming Thousands of bronzé-skinned beauties danced!
