dd McGillivray, R. 299 HE HAILEYBURIAN | Vol. 26; No.6 HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MAY 15th, 1930 Subscription Rate: $2.00 per yea May Have By-Law Forcing Testing of Dairy Herds' Medical Officer of Health Recom mends Drastic Changes in the Regulations Governing Supply of Milk; Council Will Hold Special Session to Considerably more rigid regu- lations governing the sale of milk in Haileybury will be put into force this year, if recommenda- tions made by Dr. W. C. Arnold, Medical Health Officer, to the town council on Tuesday night are accepted by that body. Dr. Arnold had made an inspection of most of the dairies supplying milk in town and in his report stated that he had found them all in good condition, with Huard's and Larocque's classed as excel- lent. He told the council that, as the dairies had not yet receiv- ed their licenses for this year, it would be in the public interest if anew by-law was framed, mak- ing it compulsory that the dairy men produce certificates, first that their stables and facilities for handling the milk were up to the health standards, and second that their herds had been tested by a qualified veterinary surgeon and were free from any tubercu- lar infections. The cost of this inspetion, the doctor said, would be $2 for each cow and he did not think it would be an unjust regu- lation on the dairymen. He re- commended that the by-law be made to apply in all cases where more than one cow was kept. The members of the council were inclined to agree with Dr. Arnold that the regulation should go into effect. It was pointed out that it would be difficult to check up on, the smaller sellers of milk, but that it could be done and would prove a benefit to the regular-- dairies, the owners of which have on occasion complain- ed that they had to compete with the seller of milk in small quan- tities who had no strict regula- tions to comply with. Afterthe question was discus- sed from all angles, and the coun- cil had listened to Jos. Huard ex- plain the matter from his stand- point, it was decided to hold a special meeting later in the month to deal with the whole milk situa- tion. Mr. Huard said that he was buying and selling cows at intervals and that it was going to be something of a hardship if each one had to be tested before he could sell the milk. The sell- ing of cream on the market was also cited as a difficult proposi- tion, but from the discussion it was plain that the council was on the whole favorable to the idea. The Medical Health Officer agreed to secure a complete list of all those selling milk in town and present it at the special meeting, when the question will be settled. Dr. Arnold touched on two or three other phases of the public health situation in his report. There had been no infectious di- seases in town for a considerable period until recently there had come to his notice a few cases of mumps which had not been re- Consider Amendments clerk write each doctor in town calling their attention to the fact that all such cases must be re- ported and quarantine imposed.

These matters are re- ceiving attention. EMPTY SHACK BURNED AS GRASS FIRE GETS BEYOND CONTROL The fire brigade got a call on Saturday at 10.30 am. to the western section of the town, wheré a grass fire had got out of control and ignited an empty shack. The building was burned down and the firemen had some- thing of a battle to keep the flames frog: spreading to other buildings, as there is no water available at that point. Nearly an hour was spent before the place was safe and the men _ re- turned to the scene in the after- noon and burned off the dry grass there and in other sections to prevent danger from fires. Rivers Take Toll of Two Lives in North Country Monteith Student and Foreigner of Porcupine Are First Vic- tims ine™" Section The first ¢ -s of the sea- son in the Kxthe suse reported this week, one 'Hem Monteith and another from Hoyle, on the Porcupine branch of the T. & N. O. The first victim was a stu- dent at the Monteith Academy, Rogers Robert, of Cochrane, aged 17, who lost his. life while in swimming with a party of fellow students in the Driftwood river, close to the lumber mill. A fel- low student made a gallant, but unavailing attempt to save him, according to the report. The body has been recovered. The other victim was a foreign- er, whose name had not been learned. With a number of other men he had gone fishing in the Porcupine river and with one companion had gone out in an old boat, which filled with water. The accident happened in the darkness on Saturday night, one of the men reaching shore safely and the other being carried through a gate in a dam and un- der the logs with which the river was filled for a considerable dis- tance. Other members of the ported and he asked that the|group could renderno help. The Cine-Kodak FERGUSON AVE.

Malcolm Lang, M.P., of |Haileybury, states this week that he will again be in the running when the Federal election takes place this summer, as announced last week by the Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King. It is expected that a meeting of the Liberal organization of the riding will be held early next week, when the date of the con- vention will be set and other plans made for the cafnpaign. Col. Lang was home over the week-end and returned on Mon- day to Ottawa for the balance of the session. It seems entirely improbable that there will be any other nominees when the conven- tion takes place, as very general satisfaction exists in the party with the representation of the riding at Ottawa during the time he has been there. Complete Sixty Years of Happy Married Life Mr. and Mire, Stephenson, New Liskeard, Celebrate Their Diamond Anniversary The Haileyburian extends con- gratulations this week to Mr. E. F. Stephenson, editor of The New Liskeard Speaker and pioneer newspaper man of the North, who with Mrs. Stephenson, celebrated their diamond wedding. anniver- sary on Friday last at their home on Farah Avenue, New Liskeard. Both are in good health, although Mr. Stephenson will be 85 next month and Mrs. Stephenson cele- brated her 79th birthday on the anniversary of her wedding. Mr. and Mrs. Stephenson were married-in Penetang at-the home of the latter, who was Miss Em- ma Wright, on May 9th, 1870. At that time Mr. Stephenson owned a newspaper at Aurora, but short- ly afterwards went to Brace- bridge and established the Brace- bridge Gazette. In 1903 they came to the North Country and founded the New Liskeard Speak- er, which, in partnership with his son, Mr. A. E. Stephenson, he still carries on. Mr. Stephenson is well known and well liked and respected, not only by the newspaper fraternity, but by many friends throughout the district.. He has always been one of the North's greatest boost- ers, and has perhaps done as much as many men for the development and opening up of Temiskaming and the advancement of his home town. During the 11 years that the 'writer has known Mr. Stephen- son he has been looked upon as a personal friend and a man partic- ularly kind of disposition and sterling worth. We are perfect- ly sincere when we express the hope that he may long be spared to take a hand in the further ad- vancement of the North Country, and that his life may continue in the happy environment that finds him on his anniversary. FEDERAL ELECTION | WORKMAN KILLED AT GOWARD WHEN FALLING POLE CRUSHES HEAD The falling of a "gin pole" which was being erected at Go- ward on Thursday last in connec- jtion with the lumbering opera- tions there, caused the death of Louis St. Sauveur, aged about 45, a workman employed on the job, when he was struck on the head and his skull crushed. He lived only about 15 minutes after the accident and did not re- gain consciousness. Efforts made to locate Sau- veur's relatives were partly suc- cessful. A brother lives in Rivi- ere du Loup, Que., where the de- ceased, who was a veteran of the great war, is believed to have had his home before coming to Go- ward on April 19th last. An investigation by Coroner Dr. W.C. Arnold was held follow- ing the fatality, but it was decid- ed that an inquest was unneces- sary. The funeral was held yes- terday morning, interment being in the Roman Catholic Cemetery.

Lang said that, following the usual custom, he was resign- ing his command at the end of his term of three years. Major Cole his successor, is now Chief Min- ing Inspector for Manitoba, with headquarters in Winnipeg, but he is coming east for the annual camp.

PALMER SERIOUSLY INJURED AS WAGON PASSES OVER BODY Mr. James Palmer, living on Fourth Street here, was serious- ly injured Tuesday afternoon when his team ran away and drew the wagon over his pros- trate body. It was believed that his spine was injured and he was found 'to be partly paralyzed when taken to the hospital for treatment. Yesterday morning, on the ad- vice of physicians, the patient was taken to the Mines Hospital, Cobalt, to have the injuries x- rayed and it was thought wise to keep him there for a time. Mr. Palmer is well advanced in years and it was reported that he was very ill yesterday. Conservatives To Meet June 4th to Name Candidate Two Names Being Prominently Mentioned to Carry the Opposition Banner Liberal-Conservatives of this riding will foregather at Engle- hart on Wednesday, June 4th, to choose a standard bearer for the coming Federal election, accord- ing to an agreement arrived at yesterady afternoon in a meeting of the party held at New Lis- keard. There were representa- tives present from several points in the riding, including Cobalt and Haileybury, and there was a spirit of optimism apparent thro- ughout the gathering. While the final choice remains for the convention, there are two nams being prominently mention- ed for the nomination, those of W. A. Gordon, K.C., of Hailey- bury, and Captain Tom Maglad- ery of New Liskeard, and a form- er M.L.A. for the riding. Whether both these gentlemen will allow their names to go be- fore the convention is not defin- itely known, but it is understood that Mr. Magladery. at least, would accept the nomination.

This will be looked into, B. Sulphur asked permission to repair and build an addition to the garage at the corner of Rorke and Russell Street, and the mat- ter was left in the hands of the fire chief, as building inspector. A request from Mrs. J. H. Mc- Kinlay for permission to instal gasoline pumps and tanks at the corner of Rorke and Main was granted. It was pointed out that the pumps would not be on the street and a service station being erected is set well back on the property. The council did not see its way clear to furnishing pipe for a crossing from the street to the property, however. There were complaints of al- leged exorbitant charges by the garbage collector and it was pointed out that a regular sche- dule of charges was fixed by by- aw. A summary of these will be published and the collector will be asked to come to the next meeting and explain his side. The license fee for transient traders was raised from $100 to $150. A complaint from J. A. Chev- rette of the condition of the east end of Albert Street will be in- vestigated by the committee and the purchase of a new dump wa- gon, at a cost of $302, was auth- orized.
