teacher, and the infant class under the
supervision of Mrs. j. Il. Mclaughlin.
The enterprise has been very successful,

purchased an organ and paid for the
delivery of library of $50 books donat-
ed by the North Tarrytown, N Y, Re-
formed church. Glover Mayo is libra
rian. AS success has so far attended
the enterprise, the feasibility of using

discussed.

Granite Belt in Grant County

The granite belt at Fierro Is attract
ing it's full share of attention just now,
and great deal of development work is
being done by claim owners. Until quite
recently this section of the camp has
been greatly neglected, but the finding
of rich ore last fall has greatly stimu-
lated investigation. Much of the
ground has been owned for years by old
timers. but so little did they think of it,
that in many instances they did not
take sufficient interest in their property
to properly describe and monument 1t.
All this is changed now. and since the
advent of capital seeking investment,
no portion of the camp is receiving more
attention, and as rule, all the ground
has been surveyed.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 24-The closing
strike finds the controversy apparently
as far from settlement as on the 18th
of July when the joint conference of
manufacturers and workers disagreed.
Yesterdays conference of labor leaders
to devise means for bringing about a
settlement was devoid of results, and 1t
rests with the conferees as individuals
to seek another conference with the
United States Steel corporation execu-
tives or to arrange for arbitrating the
differences. The meeting made no eff
fort to extend the strike to affiliated
trades. This morning President Shaffer
expressed himself as we'll satisfied with
the situation.

youth a higher appreciation of the dig
nifty of labor, the necessity for it not

but of the commonwealth and nation,
and that all our citizens by the observ-
ance of this holiday may come to a
higher realization of the fact that to
labor is not only necessary but is honor
able and dignilied, and that for all men
to labor in their respective fields of use
