THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1931 THE HAILEYBURIAN _Page 3 Build Highway Chapleau South to Present Road AarcuntenettNiade That Town is to Have Outlet at Cost of $175,000 Announcement was made late last week that a highway running south from the town of Chapleau to connect with the present Sud- bury-Soo road at a point near Iron Bridge, was to be included in the program of the Northern Development for the fall and winter months. This is a por- tion of the route proposed by Chapleau as that of the Trans- Canada highway, but whether it is to be considered as such, or is a' more local undertaking with the sole object of giving the town an outlet is not stated. The cost of the stretch of road is estimated at $175,000 and that part of a million dollar program amount has been authorized as for Sudbury district and the Manitoulin Island. Another stretch of road is to be built be- tween the town of Cartier and Levack, where 'small gangs of men are already at work. This stretch is seven miles long. It is also stated that a road from Go- gama will give access to the Three Duck Lake Mining area and that there will be some work done on a road to connect Shin- ing Tree with Gowganda, besides considerable work in Tyrell town ship. Work was to start on several of these projects and on the Trans-Canada highway between Pembroke and North Bav on Oc- tober Ist. In the meantime the survey and preliminary work on the western section of the high- way, between Heron Bay and the twin cities are being carried on and actual construction there will commence shortly. Men are be- ing taken from various centres where they have congregated to be ready when operations com- mence and it appears as thougha large percentage of the unem- ployed will be at work within the next few weeks. No definite announcement as to the route of the Trans-Canada highway through the disputed portion of the North Country has so far been made. Gangs of men are at work on the Ferguson Highway at different points and widening and straightening oper- ations are being carried on. GEOLOGICAL REPORT ON THE FORT WILLIAM AND PORT ARTHUR DISTRICT The Geological Survey has re- _ cently published a report by Dr. T. L. Tanton on the geology and mineral possibilities of the sec- Matheson News dings and other events. It may be used as a jitney to run be- tween the Wye and the Falls, but success. ieties were equal to exhibits shown at Toronto. A number of fishermen from the Falls report a good catch at Watabeag. Tame strawberries were pick- ed today on Art Buckingdale's farm near Matheson, and _ the judges at the Fair were pleased to see that berries could be grown here at this late date. In fact they were so well pleased that they are advertising" above item in the farmers' magazines. The new roads are in pretty good condition now, and taking into consideration that we in- clude the new roadwork, our en- gineer, Mr. Lough, deserves credit. Messrs. Campbell and Mont- gomery, of Cochrane, have start- ed a bus line from Cochrane to Kirkland Lake, making Matheson headquarters. The Ministers' Convention for the Northern Territory, was held at Childs' Beach last week, mak- ing a three-day visit) Here lies a man who saved his all, for days when rains and snow should fall. He knew no plea- sure, shared no game, and died before the blizzard came. (From the Broke Hustler 1920) MOTOR CAR ON STRRET CAUSES SENSATION An Overland car sailing thru the streets at a great clip aroused considerable curiosity last Tues- day. It belongs to Mr. Charle- bois of the Wye, who took his first spin. While the car is for his own use, it can be had for special occasions such as wed- tion of country lying in the vicin- ity of Fort William and Port Arthur. It is' accompanied by geological maps on a scale of one inch to one mile. The report is designed to be of use to those interested in the mineral development of the dist- rict. It furnishes, in a form not heretofore conveniently available information regarding the loca- tions of the known features of economic interest, the geological age and mode of occurrence of the deposits, and theories as to their origin. It should be par- ticularly useful to the prospector. Copies of the report may be had on application to the Direc- tor, Geological Survey, Ottawa. ms Up-to-date [rs great, and commendable to be up-to-date, even up-to-the- minute, in the things that we think, that we wear, that we do --mostly, buc not always. There are exceptions to most statements such as this and there are a lot of exceptions to this one. Science of course during the last decade or so has been mak- ing wonderful strides. Society has been the beneficiary. Society continues to profit by the research of the laboratory, and movements are constantly on foot to spread abroad to all the ends of the earth the benefits thus attained. Medical men, sanitary en- gineers, manufacturers, technical and practical men of all kinds plan national and international gatherings for the purpose of pooling the results of their discoveries and giving to the world the best they have to offer. The tiller of the "top six inches" is abreast of the rest. He, too. has planned a great world-wide conference upon the problems of field crop production--a sort of pooling of the beneficial results of research in the field of providing food and fodder for the world's millions--the World's Grain Exhibition and Conference to be held at Regina in 1932-- the first great world-wide exhibition and conference ever held at any time in the interest exclusively of grain and seed. While being up-to- date along these lines--and many others--is surely commendable it is a bit doubtful at least if the stamp placed upon some others. "We are adopting a more sensible attitude towards love," says a "We have learned to stem sentiment, to treat romance with common sense, to be normal about emotion." Just so, but has not ultra-modernism lost much of its hold upon something of infinitely greater value? Are not the kisses of too many modern writer. girls too cheap--too shoddily cheap. making taking up too much of the evening programme? Does not mod- ern familiarity with the person breed contempt? Are we not losing the delicate charm and courtliness of other days? Isn't the "it'" element of human nature so constantly before _in its original sense? Are we not, and emotion better up-to-dateness there would not be so many broken engagements,- so many hurtful rtations, so many the whole fabric of modern society. y , in sentiment and romance, paying too much attention to the things that are transitory and selfish? Is there not much solid opinion to say "yes" to these and a lot of other questions of like nature?
