 There is live expectancy at the Now ry camp, one of the old standbys of Santa Cruz county, and orders to blow the whistle are expected at any time. The mine has been idle for more than a year. Some time ago the company, an organization of New York people, was reorganized and preparations to resume operations at mine and mill are being made. Besides the Mowry, the com pany owns the Alto copper mine (the Mowry is a silver mine), in the Santa Rita mountains, fourteen miles from Patagonia. The Mowry is about the same distance from here, but in an almost opposite direction. Before the shut down the company had surveyed a railroad from the Alto mine to Pata- gonia from one side and from the Mowry to Patagonia from the other side, and if the properties are opened up again in the near future the construction of the railroad may also be expected When in full blast the Mowry gives employ ment to several hundred men. John w. Prout Jr. is general manager.

SCHOOL BANK SAVES
BIG SUM IN BOSTON

Boston, Mass.-Those now engaged
in spreading abroad the gospel of
savings-bank insurance-hn accord
ance with a carefully organized plan
to make really effective the unique
scheme which Massachusetts has pro-
vided for old-age provision-find
their chief difficulty in the fact that
working people generally have either
lost or never acquired the havit of
saying. Clearly then this saying hab-
1t Is one of the things which our pub
lie school system would do well to
teach.
1t was with this belief in mind that
the civic betterment committee Of the
Quincy Women's club of which Mrs,
Williams Ward Pitcher of Atlantic,
is chairman, inaugurated last fall Il
system of school savings which has
been so remarkably successful that at
the end of three months the commit
tee could point to $4,000 deposited in
the Quincy Savings bank by the
school children of the city alone.
The initial cost of introducing this
system was $50, and 1t was met by
the Women's club committee, be-
cause it believed the outlay to be well
worth the investment. All the other
schemes of savings were investigated
before. the one adopted was chosen,
but the actual handling of the money
and the making out By each child
OF a deposit slip similar to the one
he would use in a bank was thought
by Frank E. Parlin, superintendent of
the Quincy schools, greatly to exceed
in educational value a stamp-saving
system or any other hitherto devised
This event has proved the wisdom OF
this metod in which he no less than
Mrs. Pitcher, had great faith
What time will the clock stop?

cares of office, says the Salt Lake
Herald, but the average period of life
of the presidents after retirement Is
only 12 years and 10 months. The
list follows:
George Washington lived two years
and nine months after retirement
John Adams lived 25 years and
three months.
Thomas jefferson lived II years

The Value Of Proprietary Medicines
is proven by the very large percentage
Of physicians prescriptions for the

store in America, but as they are
written IN Latin, few patients realize
this fact.
The old standard proprietary medi-
