THE HAILEYBURIAN Subscription Rate: $2.00 per year Vol. 32: No. 27- Lost Girl Comes Home After Two Days' Absence Gladys Clark Had Been Subject of Intensive Search in Outlying District Subject of an intensive search by two provincial police officers and a large number of men for almost 48 hours, Gladys Clark, aged 22, who makes her home with Mr. and Mrs. Harry Taylor, in the outlying district of the Co- balt camp, near Brady Lake, re- turned to the Taylor residence at about 6.30 a.m. on Wednesday. According to the police the girl was somewhat hysterical when she returned and did not give any very clear reason for her ab- sence, but later in the day madea statement, full details of which were not given out. Miss Clark left the Taylor home some time between 7 a.m., when she was last seen by Taylor on his departure for his work of patrolling the lines of the North- ern Ontario Power Company in that section, and 9 am., when Mrs. Taylor got up and missed the girl. Provincial Constable Stromberg of Cobalt was notified and, with Constable Byrne from headquar- ters here, began a search of the surrounding country. Besides Brady Lake, near the home, there are many shafts and test pits, sunk in the days of the silver boom and filled with water, and TREATED KING'S EAR | Prof. Heinrich Neumann, world-famed ear specialist of Vienna, whom King Edward VIII consulted about an in- flammation of the inner ear while on his vacation trip.

W. N. Bell on Brown- ing Street, Haileybury, is com- pleted within the next week, it will more than double the size of the building and will allow of the instailation of new machinery and other equipment that will treble the output of the plant, Mr. Bell, told The Haileyburian this week. Work on the building has been proceeding for some weeks now, under the direction of Jos. Isher- wood and with all local labor em- ployed, and the exterior is com- pleted. A new front, extending across both the former building and the addition and composed of stucco with green trimmings, gives the establishment a pleasing appear- ance, while the interior is being divided into several different rooms for the various depart- ments. An. especially interesting fea- ture of the new equipment being installed is the stand on which the delicate balances used in the weighing of the precious metals rest.

Amendola, T. & N.O. clothing, \t Given Send-Off 'Ere Departure For New Home Leslie McFarlane Honored by Friends Monday Night; Is Moving to Whitby Leslie McFarlane, author, sportsman and all-around good fellow, who has called Haileybury his "home town" for more thana quarter century, was the guest of honor at a gathering of his local friends, held on Monday evening in the Odfellows' Temple, prior to his departure for his new home in Whitby, Ontario. He left on Tuesday evening for | the Southern Ontario town, where he will be joined in a few days by Mrs. McFarlane and the fa- mily. They have been contem- plating the move for some weeks, but it was only recently that/a definite arrangement was made. Mr. McFarlane states that his new location, much nearer the publishing centres, will facilitate his literary work, but he will still lock on Haileybury as his home. At a short program of addresses during the course of the party on | Monday evening, Mayor O. J. | Thorpe, acting as chairman, ex- [pressed to Mr. McFarlane the |regret of the townspeople at his limpending departure and_ their |best wishes for his success in the |future. He had helped to keep |Haileybury before the notice of the people of Southern Ontario, with his stories of the North, His Worship said, and he hoped that jhe would continue to write of the North. Mr. W. H. Tuke, principal of the high school, told of his first acquaintance with Leslie as a pupil of that institution, referred to his first literary efforts in the way of essay competitions and referred to his father, Mr. J. H. McFarlane, for many years prin- cipal of the public school, as a literary man himself who had been largely responsible for his son's success in the field of let- ers. Mr. McFarlane had instil- ed a lov eof good literature into the minds of Haileybury for a generation, Mr. Tuke said. The speaker referred to Leslie's ser- vice at a member of the public library board. His duties as chairman of the book committee consisted of "picking out books which the board could not afford to buy," reading all books which were considered of "doubtful character' and in general prov- ing, next to the secretary, R. H. Unwin, the "mainstay of the board." J. H. Murray, who ciaimed to NEW LISKEARD CHIEF IS NEW PRESIDENT OF TEMISKAMING FIREMEN J. W. Gadsby, chief of the New Liskeard fire department, was elected president of the Temis- kaming Firemen's Association, when that body met in annual session at South Porcupine this week. Other officers are W. J. Skinner, South Porcupine, first vice-president; R. J. Mathieson, Kirkland Lake, second vice-presi- dent; Fred Thompson, New Lis- keard, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Thompson is a veteran in the of- fice, having held the position for Association just couldn't along without him. The annual convention lasted two days and was climaxed by a monster banquet which filled the Masonic Hall to capacity. J. A. Bradette, M.P. for Cochrane, was among the speakers, together with C. Defields, president of the Dominion Association of Fire Chiefs. ed by a splendid musical program and a dance followed. Re-Stock Waters of District With Speckled Trout Three Tick.

Gauthier, of Giroux ° Lake who went over the famous "Trail of 98" to the Klondike, were related by him at the week- ly luncheon of the local Rotary Club on Monday. Mr. Gauthier has a happy knack of making an 'interesting address out of the incidents connected. with his jour- ney on that occasion, the first he had taken that kept him away over night from his Montreal a resident home, and the many outlines of jlife in that day made his talk a |particularly interesting one. | Commencing with the train trip |to Edmonton, the farthest north point to be touched by a railway in those days, he sketched the | whole trip into the once famous [tees area over the all-Canadian route. Down the Athabaska and Great Slave rivers, across Great |Slave Lake and finaly down the | Mackenzie was a thrilling trip, and not only thrilling but amus- ing, to judge_by the incidents re- \lated by Mr. Gauthier. He told of jhow he had marked the eggs in |the nests of wild ducks and geese, later going back and gathering- jie unmarked ones to insure a jfresh supply, of the experience when a chinook wind removed oe Net revenues of the Canadian National Railways for August this year were $680,581, an_ in- crease of $110,909 over those for the same month in 1935.

The mercy plane, a General Airways machine, dri- ven by Pilot Bogart, left Coch- rane at about 2 o'clock, stopped in Haileybury to re-fuel at 3.15 and was expected to reach the city between 6 and 7.
