Haileybury SUBSCRIPTION RATES: In Canada-- 42.00 per year in advance In United States--$2.50 per year in advance LEISHMAN & SUTHERLAND PUBLISHERS Prospecting Season Opens For some weeks past there has been evident among the pros- pecting fraternity "who make Haileybury their home or head- quarters a distinct feeling of the itchy foot, and this has culminat- ed during the past week in a con- siderable number taking to the woods, Parties that have been in course of preparation for some time are off, some to travel over new ground in the interesting search for precious metals, others to commence development and as- sessment work on previous dis- coveries. All haye high hopes that there are still mines to be discovered, still rich areas that have so far escaped the sharp eyes of the Northern men and still geod chances for that big strike which is the dream of every true prospector's heart. It is a great life, at least to those of us who are compelled to stay at home and conduct the affairs of towns and communities. There is a glamor about the life of a prospector or woodsman that appeals to the spirit of ad- venture in almost every man and it is safe to say that if the great majority of us had our choice, we would willingly exchange our jobs at home for the privilege of going out into the wilds in the never-ending quest of adventure and riches that belongs to the North Country. That is, for a trip or two at least. Perhaps we would change our minds later on. Anyway, there appears to be more activity among the prospec- tors this spring than has been the case for the past couple of years. (here are more syndicates being formed, more parties going out and generally higher hopes being entertained this year. May the men who are doing this pioneer work reap the reward that they deserve. The Publicity Campaign The publicity committee of the Haileybury Board of Trade is again planning the issue of an advertising pamphlet, which will be distributed among various bureaus, hotels, railway offices, etc., in the hope of attracting to this section of the North a great- er proportion of the tourist trade which it is expected will be great- er this year than ever before. This trade or industry, has grown to great proportions and it is commonly believed that there is considerable profit to be derived from providing the visitors with suitable means of enjoying their holidays. The local organization is confi- dent that the setting out of the town's attractions last year, in printed form, was responsible for a good share of the tourist trade being diverted to Haileybury. That the same can be accomplish- ed, perhaps on a greater scale, this year, is their belief and they are backing that belief to the ex- tent of again undertaking the work of distributing 5,000 of the pamphlets. This is no small job, but the financing has been ar- ranged for through the generous support of several organizations, including the Rotary Club, and the committee is doing its best to boost the town in this way. coe The Letter Box e@ oreoe Oreos Haileybury, May 3rd, 1931 The Editor, The Haileyburian Dear Sir: The date of meeting which I asked for is the one the R. C. Bishop attended in connection with the relief money which the Government had _ offered the Council for unemployed. A RATEPAYER Editor's Note--To our know- ledge the Roman Catholic Bishop never attended a meeting of the Town Council. At the meeting held on March 10th last, the matter of the relief appropriation being spent on the hospital was discussed and The Haileyburian was requested to not include this in the report of the meeting. Death Accidental in Sylvanite Mine Fatality A verdict of "accidental death" was returned by a coroner's jury here last night in the case of Hugo Enstrom, fatally injured by a falling plank while at work in the Sylvanite mine on sunday. Enstrom, 23 years old, was work- ing in the shaft as timberman, when the plank. 16 pounds in weight, dropped on his head from a distance of nine feet, and frac- turing his skull. He died in five minutes. At the time, new guide brackets were being installed to replace the old method of lag screws that held the cage guides. It was the first fatal accident at the property. greater accomplishment to live up after we adopt it. ketches By Cy. Slogans AN SLOGAN, according to Cas- sell's dictionary, was or is "the war cry or gathering cry of one of the old Highland Clans." Of course, like many other words, its application has broadened con- siderably. H. W. Fowler, in his Dictionary of Modern English Usage, says of this widening pro- cess, "though the great vogue of the word as a substitute for the older 'motto,' 'watchword,' 'rule,' ete., is of the 20th Cen- tury only, and we old fogies re- gard it with patriotic dislike as a Scotch interloper, it was occasion- ally so used earlier," Well, Mr. Fowler and the rest of us old fogies, I'm:afraid will have to grin and bear it so far as mod- ern usage of a great many things are concerned. We don't like to see a woman sm , but that's getting away from the subject and wed better leave that for another ime, It's a great thing to have a slogan, and it's still a greater thing to choose one that is appro- priate to the purpose for which it is to be used, but it's a much strictly to the spirit of the slogan While in a Canadian city recently I thought it best to purchase I L a extra pair of socks. Seeing the slogan "small profits and auiek aa over the door of a small shop, I went in. I came out with the socks and a cash surplus reduced by 89c. A little farther down the street I noticed Public Library _ Appreciated by Many Readers First Four Months of Year Are Busy Ones; Large Number of Books Added That 'the Haileybury Public Library is being appreciated by an increasing number of readers is made evident by the report of the first four months' operations this year, prepared by the secre- tary, Mr. R.

Amazing Torsiograph tests prove The Dictator engine the smoothest Eight within hundreds of dollars of its N? Car in its price class matches the velvet smoothness of The Dictator's 81 horsepower engine. Its Torsiograph record is smoothly "rounded" in striking contrast to the roughness common to ordinary eights, sixes and fours. ; No car in its price class has the effec- tive carburetor silencing and the full- power engine muffling that combine to give The Dictator Eight quietand smooth- ness equaled only in high priced cars. Studebaker goes to extremes not ap- proached by any maker in this price class to remove vibration. The crankshaft of The Dictator engine has nine (9) bear- ings and is balanced not only statically but dynamically on machines that are marvels of precision. What remains of vibration is further minimized by a crankshaft vibration - damper. Dual carburetion and manifold- ing, feed exact amounts of fuel to each cylinder, avoiding "starving" of end cyl- inders and assuring even power impulses. price! The Torsiograph, one of the most nearly infallible of au- tomotive laboratory instruments, records accurately the vibration of any rotating shaft. The closer the record chart approaches a true circle, the more nearly perfect the balance of the crankshaft. Above are shown the Torsio- graphic records of The Dictator Eight nine (9) bearing crankshaft and those of two other eights of double The Dictator's price. Notice the smooth roundness of The Dictator graph contrasted with the irregularity, or "hump~ iness"' of the other two. And plus all this, plus the fact that The Dictator Eight has only 38.2 pounds of weight per horsepower, you also get Free Wheeling, greatest engineering advance since the electric starter.
