Page 6 THE HAILEYBURIAN THURS., JANUARY 2nd, 1930 Notes of the North | On Saturday, Dec. 21st, the employees' children were the guests of the Spruce Falls Com- pany in the auditorium of the Club and eight hundred children of all ages were present to wit- ness Santa do dis stuff--kKapus- kasing Northern Tribune. There is a general opinion that fur-bearing animals are about gone from this district. Certain- ly they are much plentiful than they used to be. Last year they were scarce indeed, but it would appear there are a few more of them this year. A gent- leman was in this week from the Night Hawk area and he had with him a nice display of fine furs trapped in the Night Hawk district. The worth of the furs totalled well over $300.00 in the market today. The catch includ- ed mink, fisher and fox, some of the specimens being especially good.--Porcupine Advance. less That North country hen are not to be outdone in the laying of freak eggs by any mere southern clucker has been proven this week by the bringing to The Northern News office of an egg laid by a white leghorn hen, one of last year's pullets, which mea- sures 914 inches round its length- wise circumference- and eight inches the narrow way. The egg has yet another claim to notorie- ty in that it contains within it a normal sized egg. The weight of the egg before it was tapped was six ounces, andis the fourth of its kind laid by this particular hen. It is owned by James Fra- ser, of Otto Township.--Kirkland Lake Northern News. A news despatch from the Soo states that a lady of that town found a nugget of gold in the "innards" of a turkey which is supposed to have been grown on some Manitoba turkey farm. The Sooite ha snothing on a New Lis- keard citizen who found two nug- gets of the precious metal under similar circumstances. Local prospectors are getting quite ex- cited over the possibilities of dis- covering the source from which these gold nuggets have come.-- New Liskeard Speaker. "The situation at Barry-Hol- linger is better than at any time" was the stated opinion of the company's president, H. C. Crow. "Production has gradually in- creased, three months' output be- ing much greater than the pre- vious half year," he continued. We hope that in February we will produce $30,000, as aginst $22,000 in December. A good profit has been made the last three months. We are greatly pleased with the 1,500-foot level results, with its widths up to 12 feet of splendid ore. This has not been wholly available as milling feed, but soon will be.'---Northern Miner.

Poverty He who is poor has a garret, you say, Dines on a crust and goes hun- gry to bed: Never a fire to keep winter away Never a rose when the gardens are red. He who is poor has no raiment but rags, No gems save the stars and no riches but hope; Strange, how desire in his heart never flags, ~ Strange, how he still after vi- sions will grope! He who is poor may go hungry all day, With no coat for his back and the snow overhead; Never a fire to keep winter away, Never a rose when_spring's gardens are red! Yet, though men pity his poverty sore, He who is poor may conceal from the rest Safe in his spirit a bountiful store Beauty and faith and content in his breast!
