It is . zinc deposit of . magnitude that only Ar;. zons's hills can afford.
 And thereby hspgs a tale, C tale of sheer bull- beaded luck. Lucky Joe" was not looking for . zinc mine. In fact. siuce the collapse of the Bisbse boom Lucky Joe" has been looking ssksnce upon all mining ventures. for it has long been recognized that the supply Of Duluthisns and Oscaloosans
