NOTES of the NORTH In reporting the call of the aeroplane attempting the flight from Rockford, Ill., to Stock- holm, Sweden, the Cochrane Post says: "The sight of the plane over the town was a signal for a trek of most of the population to the landing field to greet the fliers. Unfortunately some mis- calculation had been made in ex- pecting the arrival to be an hour later, but an endless string of cars arrived from town soon af- ter the arrival of the plane at the field. The Mayor and Council, officials and members of the Board of Trade and the Town Band were on hand for the offi- cial welcome and were whole- heartedly supported by the town- people." fo Friends in Timmins and dist- rict were delighted on Tuesday at the word reaching here that Andy Taylor, lost in the bush north of The Pas, Man., had been found alive and in good condition after 42 days of an experience such as few men would survive. Awire reached this office from The Pas Herald, The Pas, con- firming the story of the finding of Mr. Taylor and saying that he had arrived safely in The Pas.-- Porcupine Advance, Black flies and mosquitoes have placed the first limit which has ever been recorded upon the en- durance of the hardy prospectors of Ontario's rugged North, With these pests present in the North Country this year in numbers hitherto unequalled, prospectors were forced to admit themselves beaten, and only recently com- menced to venture again into the wilderness. Hence no important discoveries of minerals have been recorded in Ontario so far this summer, a fact which constitutes a record in the history of the pro- vince's mining industry. -- Tim- mins Citizen. Spreading through the Town- ship on Wednesday afternoon like wildfire came the news of a spectacular gold discovery on the Trout Creek Gold Mining claims which are located alongside the Ferguson Highway between Kirkland Lake and Swastika. Old timers in, the camp who have had the opportunity of see- ing the samples taken from the property state that they are the richest the Township has yet produced. The honor of the discovery goes to Mr. T. Tennant.--Kirk- land Lake Northern News. We understand that through the efforts of Geo. J. White and J. C. Page, Jack Yohn the win- ner of last year's marathon race from Haileybury to Liskeard Béach, and who represented Lis- keard in the marathon swimming race at the Canadian National Exhibition, has been taken under the wing of Teddy Oke, the well- known Toronto sportsman, and, who, by the way, is a former New Liskeard resident. Yohn will be taken into the George Young camp at Toronto.--New Liskeard Speaker. Twice within as many weeks the people of Cobalt and its im- mediate vicinity have given ac- tive demonstration, not only of their willingness but also of their financial ability to support any movement for the good of the community. Last week the citi- zens responded to the call of the men of the Anglican Church and enabled them to put across a fair in the skating rink which has netted $500 for the special church purpose in hand. And this was done despite the fact that only the previous week they had as- sisted the Kiwanians in putting over a carnival which netted ap- proximately $1000 for their social service. We wonder how those people who persist in fostering the blue ruin cry of "The town is dying," explain these splendidly united efforts----Northern News. The Quebec Government an- nounces the construction this year of an automobile road into the Cadillac-Malartic area from Amos. A road is partly in exis- tence now, only about 25 miles needing to be built. All the leading properties in this new gold field have been connected up to Amos by tele- phone, which is proving a great time saver to managers and visi- tors. Amos, however, has no connection with the _ outside world, and it is hoped that pre- sently the long distance wires will be connected up through Rouyn.--Northern Miner.

The ceremony included the sing- ing of a number of hymns and a period of silence in memory of those who died overseas, and concluded with a prayer and ben- ediction by Bro. Geo. Poppleton, acting as chaplain. In the new Mount Pleasant Cemetery there were also a num- ber of graves of deceased Odd- each visited in turn and flowers placed at the base of the stones. There was no ceremony at this cemetery, the brethren dispers- ing following the decorating. Each year at about this season the Oddfellows set aside a day to honor the memory of those who are gone. The practice is almost las old a s the Order itself, over one hundred years, and each year sees its recurrence in every community where there is a lodge. The Cobalt and Hailey- bury Lodges are joint owners of 'Cemetery, where some of the brethren who have passed away far from their own homes are interred. Among the teachings of the great Independent Order of Oddfellows is the command to "visit the sick, comfort the af- flicted, bury the dead and edu- cate the orphan", and this is car- ried out to the best of the ability of the brethren whenever the need arises. The honoring of the memory of departed brothers 'is also a command and the Deco- ration Services are conscientious- fellows and there these were!the plot in the old Haileybury |ly carried out by all lodges.
