Small Boy 'Lost For Six Hours in Elk Lake W oods Found Unconscious and Terribly Bitten By Flies; Clad Only in Pajamas Terribly bitten by black flies and mosquitoes, little Clifford Poulin, aged four years, was after a six-hour search on Satur- day last by a party under t he direction of Provincial Constable C. V. McClelland. The boy had wandered off after a herd of cows noon and had _ travelled about a mile and a half from the town before he had finally been overcome. He was unconscious when he was found and was in such condition that it was thought best to rush him to hospital - at Kirkland Lake. At last accounts it wes believed that he would re- cover. With his mother, Clifford was about (Mrs. John Tremblay, who oper- jate a dairy farm at Elk Lake. iMrs. Poulin is Mrs. Tremblay's jsister. The little boy had gone out in his pajamas in the morning as the day was warm, and wan- dered away after the cows had been let out. When his absence was noticed an alarm was spread and Constable McClelland organ- ized a search party. There were about 50 men who took part in the search, according to his re- Sees Small Help | In International Object" From All Angles; To Be Continued ; An interesting discussion when, following a talk on Rotary Effort | Club Members Discuss "Fourth on international affairs developed at ithe regular meeting of the Hail-| eybury Rotary Club on Monday} the fourth object of Rotary by R. D. Cumming, other members with almost directly opposite views joined in. The debate showed so much diversity of opinion that it was decided to continue it at some future time, when all mem- bers will be given an opportun- ity to air their views. The Fourth Object of the or- ganization is the "Advancement of International Goodwill and Un- derstanding,' and Mr. Cumming held that while Rotary had set a high ideal of service in this way, he feared that little has been or could be accomplished towards world peace. Recent history, he said, had shown that some of the finest brains in the world had or- ganized the League of Nations, but that it had accomplished practically nothing". The League meant nothing to Japan, he ar- gued, when she had made up her mind to seize a large section of China, and it had failed to settle the differences between Italy and Ethicpia and prevent a war of conquest on the part of Mussolini against the weaker nation. The British Empire, as a "League of Nations" itself, Mr. Cumming said, had done something towards promoting world peace through disarmament, only to find that other nations were taking advan- tage of her and to be forced to re-arm to protect herself. Can- ada, one of the smallest nations, but among those with the great- est land areas, the speaker claim- ed, was not taking the right at- titude in allowing her defences to remain so ineffectual. We should be in a position to defend ourselves, rather than leaving the country open to attack, and de- pending upon Great Britain or the Munroe Doctrine of the Un- ited States, which, if invoked, would result in the loss of a large roportion of our independence. "We should be on a par with the other nations if we are going to advance international understand- ing" Mr. Cumming concluded. Taking the other side of the argument, R.H. Unwin, president of the club, explained that Rotary International works through in- dividuals and takes no direct ac- tion through government.

B. Gordon Lumber Company's sawmill at Latchford, was almost instantly killed on Thursday afternoon last, when he was struck by a fly- 'mg piece of timber from one of the machines. The machine was one for the sawing of pickets, one of which jammed, and it was vhen Divarias pulled a lever to -elease the piece of timber that he was struck. The blow caught him just over the heart, accord- ing to reports of the fatality, and he died about 10 mintites later, before medical aid could be se- cured.

C. Inch, acting for William H. Phillips, in Supreme Court here yesterday, in which two insurance companies of Toronto are named as defendants. Philips, acquitted last November of a charge of ar- son laid against him following the fire which destroyed his pro- perty in Thornloe, is suing the Lumberman's Underwriting Al- liance and the Providence Assur- ance Co., claiming from each $1579.87 and interest from June 25 last year. It is alleged Phillips insured his property with the defendants against loss by fire and that they have neglected or refused to make the payments due under the policies, although plaintiff claims to have complied with the conditions.

G Nixon's Party at Banquet After Trip Through North Residents of this district talk- ed roads to the members of the Legislature who were members of Wm. G. Nixon's party, when the visitors were entertained ata banquet in New Liskeard on Sat- urday evening, prior to their de- parture for the: southern constit- uencies which they represent at Toronto. The party had spent three days visiting the mining districts at Timmins, Rouyn-Noranda and Kirkland Lake, with a side trip to Iroquois Falls, and were brought by motor from Kirkland Lake in the afternoon. They were enter- tained first at Mr. Nixon's home and taken to the Masonic Hall at 5.30 for the banquet. Temiskaming residents who took the opportunity of presen- ing the claims of the North in- cluded Mayor W. G. Armstrong of New Liskeard, who also ex- tended a welcome to the visitors on behalf of his municipality ; Frank Herron, president of the New Liskeard Board of Trade, who presided at the banquet, Mayor Weeks of Englehart, and Mayor O. J. Thorpe of Hailey- bury. All were emphatic in tell- ing the southern gentlemen that the North Country deserved bet- ter treatment from the Legisla- ture than it has been receiving and all were positive that the trip had been one of the most impor- tant steps towards bringing the northern and southern sections of the province more closely to- gether. Mr. Armstrong put it very nicely when he said "We are all shareholders in one great or- ganization, and should work in co-operation for the benefit of the whole." Mr. Nixon, who was compli- mented by all the speakers on his initiative in organizing the tour, introduced the visiting legisla- tors and members of the press who accompanied the party, and again pointed out to them the im- portance of the North Country to the whole province. Mr. Weeks did not mince words in his speech on the road question and the lack of knowledge on the part of Southern Ontario of con- ditions in the North, and Mr. Herron added his voice in a com- parison of the roads in Ontario with those in Quebec. From the tenor ot the speeches made by the members of the leg- islative party, it' was apparent that the trip had been something of a revelation to them. The majority were on their first tour of the North and all were greatly impressed with the wealth of the mining districts and the splendid showing made by the farmers of Temiskaming. Those who spoke included Dr W. D. Smith, Duffer- in-Simcoe; Wm. Duckworth, To- ronto; Wm. Newman, Victoria; W. L. Houck, Niagara Falls; Col. Fraser Hunter, Toronto, and Morgan Baker, North York. An orchestra under the direc- tion of P. R. Craven provided splendid music at the banquet. and a solo was given by A. H. Hull. ----------e When a vacancy occured on the Cochrane town council through the resignation of Mel. Owens, an election was avoided by the three nominees, E. B. Booth, Carl Thorning and M. Palangio, cut- ting cards to see who would take the job. Mr. Booth qualified by cutting a king. : 7 | | 0 a a ic Tea and Produce Table BUCO EEE GE COO GES EEGEeT EGET VVgegegeer2 Under the Auspices of the Ladies' Aid of the United Church Friday July 3rd 3 to 6 p.m. ougceRTUERR sess EUs TENT ECU eUsLCUROUR At the Heme of MRS.
