10 NORSHORE SENTINEL Tuesday, December 20, 1 960 BEARDMORE BRIEFS With the colored lights up on Main Street and T.V. aerials popping up all over town, Beardmore is taking on the appearance of a busy metropolis. There is no increase as yet in unemployment and none is expected, so no doubt we have the edge on the bigger centres there. One department that is kept busy is the snow removal department. Main Street and the side streets are clear at the present moment but not for long, we fear. Old timers say the snow storms stop once Lake Nipigon freezes over but since we have to dig our drive way out all winter long, I’m afraid someone forgot to tell the snow-maker when the lake freezes over. Mr. and Mrs. W. Poutanen and family and Mrs. N. Campbell spent the week-end in the Lake head. R. Puittinen left Dec. 14 by air for his commercial fishing camp on Lake Abamasagi, 136 miles north of Nakina. Among the supplies flown in with him was a skidoo, a new type of motor snow tobbogan which he will use on the lake. Ron will do commercial fishing during the winter and operate a tourist camp and act as guide during the tourist season. The Office Employees International Union, Local 321, Beardmore, held their Xmas Tree in the Legion Hall on Sunday, Dec. 11. The party was organized by Alfred Dam-pier, president, assisted by J.

Any children unable to be present will have their gifts sent to them. Mrs. A. Nylund, mother of R. Nylund is a patient in Port Arthur General Hospital. Lome Cottenden, District Fire Marshal, Fort William met with the Beardmore Volunteer Fire Brigade Thursday evening at the Public School.
