One opti- mist has set the date as April 20 while on the other hand there is a pessimist who has no hope ot the lake being clear before the middle of May.. It appears we did not make the rules entirely clear in announcing the contest this spring. One is to the effect that only one entry is allowed each contestant, and we have already-received a couple of doubles. In each case one has been destroyed. It is permissable for different members of a family to enter guesses, but only one subscription will be given tova family, if some member picks the correct date.

This count was verified at the police station. In- spector Beacock gave evidence to the effect that he had heard the accused admit in the police sta- tion that the furs were his and laughingly refer to the time and trouble they had cost to secure and the further loss there would be in a fine----Porcupine Advance.

J. L. Brunet, a C.N.R. employee versed in the movement, gave very interesting and informative talks in English and French, and answered questions. The success achieved at Val d'Or by a co- operative started by fourteen workers, he said, offers encour- agement to the Noranda group. which was started by twelve workers about two years ago.--- Rouyn-Noranda Press. QUADRUPED CHICK Just the right chicken for 4 street, on Friday, because when later in the year the bird is stuff- ed and roasted there'll be a drum- stick for each person at the table. The chicken had four legs when it emerged from the shell. One of the shafts is apparently perfect. The other three are slightly de- formed and handicapthe young- ster somewhat in its efforts to move apouts But the chick is alert and pert and is just as much interested in what is going on in its own little world as are its brothers and sisters who were introduced to feathered society on the same day. -- North Bay Nugget. pes 5 a IMPORTANT CITY "Sudbury is one of the most important small cities of the world today," stated John Fisher CBC commentator, in addressing the Women's Canadian Club in |clared "Put any one of these nic- |kel mines out of condition and see what happens to Canada's war jeffort, or the war effort as a |whole.
