THE HAILEYBURIAN Page 4 THURSDAY, JUNE 4th, 1931 THE HAIL.EYBURIAN Issued every Thursday from The Haileyburian Office, Braadway S «eet, Haileybury SUBSCRIPTION RATES: In Canada-- 42.00 per year in adyance In United States--$2.50 per year in advance LEISHMAN & SUTHERLAND PUBLISHERS The Question of Flags Discussing an editorial in these columns last prominent in educational matters tells us that the Separate School had its flag up on the holiday, al- though at the same time he ac- knowledged that it was the only school in town that thus observed week, one man the 24th. He also stated that at the Public School a new flag pole is being installed, but through some unforseen delay, this was not up in time for the flag to be flown on the holiday. This makes it a bit better than we had sup- posed and better than the major- ity of people believed when they were struck with the scarcity of flags on the first national holiday of the year. The flag question has also been up for discussion in the federal parliament on a recent occasion, when Cameron McIntosh, M.P., of North Battleford, who by the way is a newspaper publisher, in- country, something that will really represent Canada, not only in other countries but at home. Then why not revert to the for- mer order of things and again a- dopt the red ensign with our own coat of arms in the fly, thus mak- ing our flag at home and abroad the same and the one that a large percentage of the population looked on as the national emblem during their youth. The motion of Mr. McIntosh troduced a motion providing for a committee to study the ques- tion of a new national flag for Canada. Reading the debate on the morion and Mr. MclIntosh's speech in support of it, one can learn a bit of histor in connection with the flag that is perhaps not as generally known as it should be. It was stated by members of the House that the red ensign with the arms of Canada in the fly was recognized as the nation- al flag, as we all considered it, up to 1904, when for some reason not very clearly explained its use in this way was discontinued as the union jack substituted. The red ensign still remains as the flag of Canada's merchant marine and is used on government build- ings outside of Canada. One gathers that this flag had been used as the national emblem from the days of confederation until 1904, and this is 4s we remember it in our younger days. While the union jack is a pret- ty fair flag, there seems to be a definite movement towards some- thing more distinctive in this appears to have been talked out in parliament and it may not be heard of again during the present session, but the question is one that will likely keep coming up until some solution is eventually arrived at. They Took the Hint Whatever may be said of the people of Haileybury, no one can accuse them of not taking a hint. Last week The Haileyburian drew at- tention to the scarcity of flags on the downtown streets on May 24th, the first patriotic holiday of the year and when the King's birth- day came around yesterday, the whole of Ferguson Aven- ue through the business sec- tion was literally lined with flags. The majority of the business places had _ their sidewalk banners flying, oth- ers had theirs on poles and some were simply hung out of the windows. It was the best display of bunting that we have seen in town for a number of years. We con- fess that the office of The Haileyburian was without any decoration. We haven't got a flag, but we like the spirit which prompted the others to remedy what was obviously an oversight. District Ore Shipments Two Cobalt mines shipped three cars of ore each during the period May 15th to May 29th. The total weight of the ship- ments was 545,166 pounds and the shippers were the O'Brien and the Mining Corporation. The town of Kirkland Lake is facing a problem in the fact that the school accommodation there is far from sufficient for the 800 public school pupils enrolled. Versatility NE morning last summer, Jim Stalk, a farmer of the Last Mountain district out West, jumped out of bed, lit the lamp, kindled a fire in the kitchen stove and proceeded to call the help. Cy Hayrack, the new farm hand, answered drowsily, sat up in bed, rubbed the sand out of his eyes and then proceeded to dress in the dark. "Egad," he mused, "this is goin' to be some job. I don't mind being called early in the morning of the next day after I go to bed, but to be rousted out of bed on the night of the same day. 2 A half hour after he and the boss had fed the horses, cleaned out the stable, put on the har- ness and pumped the trough full Ne et P ly SAUNA A ne) heey i of water.
