beating Boston in the first game with
to score. Unlike most Of the
Uplift Folk. we are not seeking cheap
notoriety, or working at the game

cleaning and such like, but are CIV
ing advice simply because we are
sincerely interested in the rising of

badly by losing two out of three 10
New York we did not insist upon its

that without doubt the complete
equipment which is being installed
Will be equal to treatment of the
ores of the mine in successful man
ner and a fall and winter of much
activity is anticipated. Success of
the mill will mean a great deal TO
the Cherry Greek district and its
starting up is awaited with much
interest. The last of the machinery
and equipment is being hauled this

for long time but there is hope
that a dressing of heavy material
will be put on it during the summer.
