Bro. Marcus has found.a piece of ore which
contains native copper. Who knows whatwe
may find yet in our land?
Comrade Hugh Mooney, who paid in fee
here some time ago. has come and put up his
application to be voted on He is working

The fire caused some damage to our cereal
coffee shop. but we are at it again, same as
ever. The orders are coming in slowly and

volunteer work by those who have break in
their regular work, and this occurs so seldom
that no rush Is noticeable with said hall.
But every little counts, and some day we will

are entitled to the entire bakery. We regret
exceedingly that overtime should be neces
sary but the work just simply expands and
and ants for work it would still floor us. But
Bro. Goldite said there was no demand for
laborers.

Other speakers followed, making pleasant
and profitable evening.
