What Joy scme winter morning
When l suddenly awake,
And lust the thought or getting

What Joy II Is TO hsten
To my neighbor's cheerful talk
And the merry. merry ciatter
or the shovel on the walk.
I make mental picture
or the snowdrift on the street
And sleep at once becomes
Blessing more than twice as sweet.
Oh. how hug the pillow
Fen more tightly than before,
And make all kinds OF wishes
That relate 20 sleeping more.
know that duty calls me
But I'm much inclined 10 balk
When hear the merry clatter
OF the shovel on the walk.
Give me the good old summer,
When the snow is at the pole,
And 1 don't have TO shovel
my ashes, snow, or coal.
Let any man that wishes
Spend his morning pushing snow,
But not for me the labor
When the biting blizxards blow,
The STUFF about the pleasure
or the work Is dippy talk
And don't like TO hear the chatter
OF the shovel on the walk.

There is growing excitement all
over the coast over the big strikes of
gold ore in the San Francisco mining
district, this county. The Gold Road
mines are reputed to be wonderfully
rich, while the mines of Silver Creek,
Leland, Snowfall and the north part
of the district are yielding some of the
richest ore ever taken from the ground
anywhere on the Pacific coast. At
present fuel and water are the prob.
lens that have to be considered, but
this will be overcome when railroad
connects the mines with the outer
world and fuel can be brought in
cheaply, while the ores can be convey
ed with little expense to the river.
Big reduction plants are sure to go in
somewhere on the river and the install.
lation Of electric power may be one of
the agencies that will reduce the cost
of power in both mines and mills.
