DIAMv..D MINING.
How They Treat tho Blue Dirt In the
 Kimberly Rsnion.

How They Treat tho Blue Dirt In the
 Kimberly Region.
 Writing to his monthly from Jo- hannesburg, E. w. Howe tells how the diamonds are taken from the mines in South Africa. Briefly, the process of finding the diamonds is as follows:
 The blue dirt in which the dia- monds are found is brought to the surface precisely as coal is hoisted and mined in about the same way. It is then placed in little iron cars and hauled to level field, where it is spread over the surface to depth of two feet. This is done to permit the weather to disintegrate the dirt and render it's washing easier. To- day saw field of 4,000 acres cov- cred with this blue dirt. It will re- main out in the weather year be- fore it is treated in the washing mills.
 You might pause moment and think of that 4,00o acre field, cov cred to depth of two feet with the blue dirt in which diamonds are found. The 4,000 acre field l saw represented the output of only one mine; there are eight in the Kim berly district, only two of which are known to be duffers, as they say here-that ic, of little value. And you may rest assured that this 4,OO0 acre field is carefully guarded. It is surrounded with a barbed wire fence fourteen feet high, and on the top of the fence are four wires spread out in such way that no one could possibly climb over. At night the fence is illuminated with electric lights, and there is a patrol of armed guards day and night. But you might be turned loose in the 4,000 acre field and not find d diamond in a year. The process of finding them is very intricate, expensive and difficult. Many of the natives who work in the diamond mines have never seen a diamond; they see only the blue dirt.
 After the blue dirt has lain out in the weather year and been plowed up at intervals with steam blows that all portions of it may have a chance at the sun, it is washed in enormous mills and reduced in the proportion of 1 to 4,000.000-that is, for every pound of diamonds found 4,0OO,000 pounds of blue dirt arc mined, hoisted, exposed in the field year and then run through the washing mills.
 In these washing mills the blue dirt is first crushed between rollers and then run through shaking washing pans three different times. What is left is then taken in cars to another mill called the pulsator, and here the precious dirt is again washed three times. Finally the diamonds and the heavier pebbles remaining after six washlngs go in stream of water over shaking pan, the bottom of which is covered with vaseline. The diamonds stick to the vaseline for some reason yet unexplained, while the pebbles roll away with the water. The diamonds on the screen arc then easily col lected and sorted

with that knowledge which enables us
to lead better, fuller, more useful
lives, and to become efficient men
and women, capable of getting life's
happiness out of life's work, rather

the keynote of the situation and ap-
piled the abstract principle to the

Gently: There is no danger of the

that both the rights and prosperity of
our nation hinge upon a cultural and
practical equilibrium of our tax-sup-

1t was only few Minutes ago that
two distinguished representatives
from Minnesota wanted TO put furs
on the free list because their constit-
uents used them. Now, they want to
put a tax on -four. that all the people
OF the United States consume, be-
cause their people sell it. Now, from
local standpoint suppose that may
be popular; but a tariff bill never can
be written that way If you want to
stand for protection you have got to
be willing TO protect the other fellow.
If YOU want to stand for a revision
downward of a revenue tariff you
have got to reduce yourself as much
as you reduce the other fellow, or you
cannot put it through.-Underwoo

So you see my plan for a girls ed
ucation comprises three essential and
coordinate departments: First, sci
entific, practical training that will mt
her for the high calling of hOme-mak-
ing and motherhood; second, cultured
training that makes her conversant
with good literature, history and cur
rent events, and enables her to bring
a trained mind to bear upon questions
of the day; third, thorough, definite
training in some special line of work,
that will enable her to make her own
living and prevent her from becom-
ing a helpless parasite, or an unskill-
ed, underpaid laborer, hanging on to
the ragged edge of existence. | re-
gard these three things a essential;
other things may be added according
to the individual ability and physical
condition.
Educate a girl along the lines |
have indicated and you will return to
the community at graduation a wO-
man fitted to bear her part in any
sphere of life to which it may please
God to call her; and you have solved
many Of the problems that are con-
fronting the world today; better still,
you have armed her cap-a-pie, against
the sings and arrows of outrageous
fortune
Now, l believe it is the business of
the public schools to give just these
opportunities to the girls they take in
charge. If they are public schools,
supported by public money, they
should meet public needs. In many
states this readjustment has already
begun, and the next few years will
undoubtedly see every state in the
Union reorganize its public school
system along saner, more practical
lines.
| think that there is an imperative
call for the women's organizations to
give their best efforts to creating a
sentiment that will hasten the great
day when our Florida schools Will be
swept forward on the crest OF this
wave of educational progress. Re
member that teachers and principals
cannot make these changes until
there is a general demand that will
affect the powers that make school
laws and school appropriations. We
teachers, as we'll as the children, are
caught in the system, and must con-
form to rules and regulations and
college entrance requirements. More
over, this extension of public school
service means greatly increased ex-
pense for equipment and specially
trained teachers. All this means
more money for the public schools
and, in common parlance, it is up to
you" TO decide what shall be done.
But if you have an open mind and
will think seriously over what I have
said, I feel sure that you will agree
that the end abundantly justifes the
means. Three hundred years ago

man life is as ageless as the ages
