THURSDAY, MAY. lst, 1930 THE HAILEYBURIAN Page 5 New Timetable Now in Effect on T. & NO. Principal Change _is in South Bound Trains; Earlier Mail to Toronto ~ The new summer timetable went into effect on the T. & N.O. Railway on Sunday last with the chief changes applying to the southbound evening trains. In these No. 2, the Continental Lim- ited, arrives in Haileybury at 4.21 instead of 5.10, a difference of 49 minutes, while No. 46 for Toron- to is 22 minutes later, reaching here at 6.23, instead of 6.01. The latter trains reaches North Bay at the same hour as formerly, 10.15, while No. 2 arrives in that -city at 8.10 o'clock instead of 9.00. No. 18, which on the previous schedule. was due at Haileybury at 1.21 p.m., arrives here at 1.18. There are only slight changes in the northbound trains here. No. 47 is due two minutes later, at 10.52 a.m., while No. 1 arrives one minute-earlier, at 2.11. No. 17, previously arriving at. 3.30, has been speeded up and reaches here at 3.28. Some complaints are heard by the people of Timmins, where the earlier time of the Continental makes it necessary to have mail for Toronto ready at 9.30 a.m. They also find fault with the tak- ing off of the cafe car from No. 47 at Swastika, and the Board of Trade and other organizations are taking the matter up with the Commission. So far as the service at Hail- eybury is concerned there appear to be no complaints. Mail for Toronto will have to be posted almost an hour earlier, but there will be little further change in conditions under the new sche- dule. NORTHERN TELEPHONE COMPANY WILL BUILD NEW LINE TO HEARST The Northérn Telephone Com- pany has been awarded the con- tract for the building of the long distance line from Kapuskasing to Hearst, the work to be com- pleted by August Ist this year. The distance is some 60 miles and the line is being put in by the T- Sk NO. Commission, which al- ready 'has long distance connec- tion to Kapuskasing. The Tele- phone Company will also instal acentral system at Hearst, where a vote on the granting of a fran- chise was taken on April 28th, and where already they have ap- plications for some 40 phones. The town of Hearst will be connected by wire with outside points, an improvement that will be greatly appreciated. In the voting there were 66 ballots cast in favor of the franchise, with only four against. The Northern Development Committee of the Toronto Board of Trade will be in this section on Friday, May 9th, next, when they will visit points of interest in Co- balt and Haileybury and will be entertained at a banquet in New Liskeard that evening. Hon. Chas. McCrea and Hon. Wm. Fin- layson will be with the party.

The provincial police have the matter in hand.

The course will be slightly al- tered this year. , Instead of hav- ing the start and finish of each relay at the corner of Main -and Ferguson, the post will be moved to the corner of Browning and Ferguson, two blocks north, and it is believed that this will lessen the strain on the boys making the spurt at the finish, as the grade here is not as great as at the spot where the changes were made in last year's race. Enquiries have been received from several of the towns -which had teams in last year's event, and interest among the boys is keen. We hope to have every- thing in readiness for the com- fort of the runners and for the proper handling of the race when the time comes. Entries will close on Tuesday, May 27th.

HEN man reaches that stage in his existence where the urge for "home" dominates his thoughts he is suffering the first stages of the "settling down" process. He begins planning a house and all that goes with it, and realizes that before he can settle down and become a Solid Citi- zen he must "settle up." Now this "settling up" business should be indulged in at regular intervals by most of us. There's al- ways some little account that if not paid promptly when notice is sent, will be allowed to stand indefi- nitely. One of the most unfortunate in this respect is the subscription to the newspaper. The amount is small and comes due but once a year; so it is easily forgotten. But when a thousand subscribers "forget," the publisher is in a bad way and imme- diately has to put on pressure to collect the $2.00 accounts. There is one sure way of keeping "settled up" with your newspaper--watch the label every week. Af- tr your name the date on which your subscription expires is printed plainly. Pay it promptly when it comes due. Make sure of it now. "LOOK AT THE LABEL"' ONALD'S BRIER For the pipe smoker. Fine Cut If you "roll your own'.
