Renewed Activity.
Vulcan Times

The Sugar Creek and Beaver
Greek districts will again be the
scene of much activity and progress
the coming winter.
These districts have shown but
little life for the past three years
practically nothing being done in
that time except the requisite an
nual labor TO hold the claims. but
those who had interests in that sec
ton were firm in their belief in tn,
ultimate success of their holdings
and each one has been making prep.
arations for a period of extensive
and systematic development, with
the result that an influx Of 0ld-timer,
occurred there last week. which
presages more development work
during the next few months than
has been accomplished in the same
districts during the last decade.
Work Will be pushed ON at least
five claims, the operators Of which
are already on the ground with an
abundance Of supplies, and possibly
ON two others.
This. with the regular production
Of ore at the Continental. will give
the Sugar Greek and Beaver Creek
districts an unusual air Of prosper.

THE PEOPLE WHU WIN.

The people who win their way
into the innermost recesses of 9TH
ers' hearts, are not usually tho
most brilliant aud gifted, but those
who have sympathy, patience. self
forgetfulness and that indehnable
faculty Of eliciting the better ma
ture of others. Most of us know
others who have appealed to us
that way We have many friends
who are more beautiful aud gifted
but there is not one of them whose
companionship we enjoy better
than that of the plain faced man
or woman who never makes a wit
ty or profound remark, but whose
quality of human goodness makes
up every deficiency.
