7 Page 2 THE "HAILEYBURIAN THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1931 THE HAILEYBURIAN| +very Thursday from The Haileyburian Office, Braadway S «eet. Haileybury SUBSCRIPTION RATES: In Canada--s2.00 per year in advancz In United States--$2.50 per year in advance LEISHMAN 6 SUTHERLAND PUBLISHERS Issued Some Peculiar Figures While as a general rule govern- ment "Blue Books" are rather dry reading, sometimes some very interesting and peculiar in- formation may be gleaned from their perusal. We have in mind the Ontario Government's fif- teenth bulletin on municipal sta- tistics, giving records for the year 1930, and the section which caught our attention is that deal- ing with waterworks. All towns, cities and villages having muni- cipal waterworks are listed and in the majority of cases the total consumption for the year is giv- en, together with the average daily consumption per head of population. The variation of the latter amounts is what seems particularly puzzling We find from the tables given that the highest consumption of water in the province is 342 gal- lons per head per day, which is the figure given for Petrolia, and the lowest is 1.02 gallons at windsor. A many towns and cities apparently did not re- port fully on their water con- sumption, but the ones who did average around 100 gallons, al- though there is nothing like uni- formity. Haileybury's consump- tion is not given, but that of New Liskeard is listed at 70 gal- lons and Cobalt's at 125 gallons The city of Toronto uses 120 gal- lons per day for each individual. ZOC rd Other figures given in the table show the earnings and operating and capital charges of the plants, together with the profit or loss as the case may be In this, Haileybury falls behind her sis- ter towns for, while Cobalt and New Liskeard both show a sub- stantial profit, our balance is on the wrong side and the state- ment shows a loss of $6,424.56 for the year. Cobalt's profit is shown as $3,907.77 and New Lis- keard's $2,604.56. The revenue derived from the Haileybury sys- tem was $12,056.00, but the oper- ating expenses and capital charges were $18,480.56. These figures are peculiar, as we said before, particularly the consumption of water in different places, but they are "compiled from municipal returns for the year ending December 3lst,, 1930 Press Pays Tribute to Late Editor of Telegram he press of the whole country is this week paying tribute to the the Toronto Tele- late editor of gram, Irving E. Robertson, who died at his home in the city on Monday night after a compara tively short illness. He was 49 years of age, was born in Toron- to and held a prominent place in the life of the city and province He succeeded his father, the late John Ross Robertson, as editor in chief of the Telegram some years ago, and was among™ the most prominent journalists in Canada, known for_ his attitude on all questions of a public nature Mr. Robertson's philanthropic work was _ well known throughout the province, particularly in connection with the Hospital for Sick Children, and his death at a comparatively early age is deeply mourned. fearless Snowfall on January ist, but Weather Continues Very Mild A fall of a few inches of snow on the night of January lst changed conditions and gave the town and district a more wintry appearance, but the weather this week has been exceptionally mild and there is some difficulty ex- perienced in making ice both at the skating and curling rinks. The snow stopped the fine skat- ing on the lake, although some of the more enthusiastic were still out on Sunday. None of the old timers can re- call a milder or finer fall and early part of the winter, although it is told that an Indian resident of the district claims to remem- ber a winter when Lake Temis- kaming did not freeze entirely over. Consistent Advertising in The Haileyburian will Bring Business Haileybury in 1924 Items from the Files of The Haileyburian of Seven Years Ago The worst fire since the big one in 1922 occurred on Sunday night in Liggett's Drug Store. There was only slight damage to the building, but the stock and fix- tures are almost a complete loss. The new Haileybury theatre will be opened tonight, with spe- cial music and vaudeville by the McQuinn Sisters and Brothers. Miss Jane Caldbick suffered a fractured limb in a skiing acci- dent on Sunday, in a fall on the Lake Shore Road. Joseph A. Legris was elected Mayor of Haileybury on Monday, beating his opponent, Geo. Pop- pleton, by 25 votes. Haileybury again won the En- glehart Cup from the New Lis- keard Curling Club on Tuesday night, after a strenuous battle between two rinks from _ each club at New Liskeard. They were four points up on the two games. About four inches of snow fell over the week-end and interfer- ed with the skating on the lake, which had) been good for some days. A banquet was held by the Re- tail Merchants Association in the 1.0.0.F. Temple last night, at which the chief speakers were Town Clerk H. A. Day and ex- Mayor G. F. Summers. In the Bucke Township elec- tions, W. J. Post defeated Bur- ton Normandy for the reeveship by 33 votes. ORE SHIPMENTS For the week ending December 3lst, three cars of ore were shipped from Cobalt by the Min- ing Corporation, the total con- tents being 263,919 pounds. Dur- ing the week ending January 4th, 1932, three cars were shipped from the Frontier mine at Silver ore.

It is now claimed that a new banana powder makes a good baby food and that it contains iron, which is more than can be said for cow's milk. a © WHEN IN TORONTO YOU WILL ENJOY OUR SERVICE IF YOU PREFER A QUIET WELL CONDUCTED MEDIUM SIZED HOTEL.
