GIRLS AT HIGH SCHOOL ENTERTAIN FRIENDS AT HOME MAKERS DISPLAY The girls of the Home Makers Department at the Haileybury High School held a fine display of work and a demonstration of cheese dishes on Tuesday after- noon, when a large number of iriends of the pupils at the school were present. Tea was served to all who attended and there were many complimentary remarks made on the clever work of the students, both in the demonstra- tion of the cooking and the dis- play of sewing and other work which is taught in the depart- ment. The event was arranged by Miss J. Campbell, who is in charge of the Home Makers De- partment, and the enthusiasm of the students, the presence of all the other members of the staff and a large number of visitors all helped to provide a very pleasant afternoon.

Coming Attractions at the Empire Theatre, Liskeard "Not Exactly Gentlemen", the thrilling visualization of the fam- ous Dakota land rush in the early 70s, which plays Friday and Sat- urday, June 5-6. Victor McLag- len is featured with Fay Wray heading the supporting cast. A new Nancy Carroll, more dramatically real than ever be- fore, is revealed to moving pic- ture audiences by the red-headed star's latest dramatic portrayal, in "Stolen Heaven", which plays Monday and Tuesday, June 8-9. Probably the most _ hilarious scene ever brought to the screen is included in Charlie Chaplin's "City Lights," the picture that is heralded as the outstanding ach- ievement of the great comedian's long career, to be shown at the Empire Theatre, Wednesday and Thursday, June 10-11-12-13. The cost of the production runs slightly over $1,500,000 and more than 15,000 persons were employ ed and three years in the making |LOGS IN RIVER STOP FLYING FROM ELK LAKE "INTO MATACHEWAN The presence of logs in the Montreal river at Elk Lake is re- sponsible for a temporary cessa- tion of air traffic between that centre and the Matchewan gold field. With the annual spring drives under way, the river is blocked at that point, and planes operating over the route are fly- ing to and from Haileybury for the present. This condition will continue for some days, it is stat- ed here. A similar state of af- fairs exists in some of the min- ing fields of Quebec. New Town of Haileybury is Puzzling to an Old Timer Friends of Mr. J. J. Butler, once a well known resident of Haileybury and here this week, with Mrs. Butler on a visit, are chuckling over the fact that he has been lost two or three times since his arrival at the week-end. Mr. Butler left Haileybury some few months after the big fire of 1922 and was not here during the per- iod of rebuilding. Now he finds the town somewhat strange and in his walks around he evidently got mixed up in the streets. We have been told that on one oc- casion the help of members of the fire brigade was sought to locate him, and that the Mayor and councillors. took a hand in the search. As Mr. and Mrs. Butler are going to remain in town for a week or two, it is lik- ely that they will soon become thoroughly acquainted with the layout of the town and be able to enjoy their visit without fear of gettiing lost. Bride -To-Be is Honored By Friends at Shower An exceedingly nice shower was held at the home of Mrs. M. Austin on Wednesday evening, May 27th, in honor of Miss Lila Blair, whose marriage will take place late this month. , 1 A great number of girls gath- ered to show their esteem to the young lady, and took much pleasure in seeing her open her many beautiful gifts. An enjoyable evening was spent with games, singing and dancing, after which a dainty lunch was served. Mike Shakoon. of Timmins, was committed for trial on a charge of murdering a Mrs. Bernadette on the night of May 20th. He told all the details of the alleged crime at the prelim- inary hearing.

Forbes and daughter visited relatives in Iroquois Falls last week. The fine weather is now bring- ing in many tourists, a number of them coming from the States, and are enjoying the fishing in this district. The 1.0.0.F. Lodges of the Northern district met in Mathe- son*last week. 125 members were visitors and efijoyed themselves during the day and in the evening the Rebekahs held a dance. Mr. J.-B. Smith is making a great improvement on his prop- erty, and will soon have his new residence finished. Mr. Odonnell of Iroquois Falls has leased Child's Beach for the season. A few lots have been spoken for at the Beach and no doubt a few summer cabins will be erect- ed within a short time. We un- derstand these lots are leased by the year or for five years. Dr. Dunn, V.S., was in the dis- trict this week on business, and returned to New Liskeard Mon- day night. We are pleased to see that Dr. Smylie has greatly improved. Mr. Willie Draves has almost fully recovered from his opera- tion and went home Sunday. Secure Big Contract For Canadian National Buildings G. S. Allard, Northern Ontario representative of Beatty Bros.,a purely Canadian manufacturing company, tells us this week that his firm has secured one of the biggest contracts in connection with the new buildings being er- ected this year for the Canadian National Exhibition at Toronto. This contract consists of fittings for the new stables and amounts to well over $100,000. Mr. Allard says that one of the conditions of the contract is that all material must be Canadian products, so far as it is possible, and that all work is done by Canadians. Through the depression of the past months not a single employee of Beatty Bros. has been laid off and the big eae contract will mean considerable overtime.
