POSTOFFICE
Will HAVE
new CLERKS
when new LAW is effective
Two New Clerks Will be
Required Here

When the Reilly Eight Hour Law be-
comes effective relative to the work
of postal clerks throughout the Unit
ed States, the local postotfice will So
cure two new clerks. The new law
will go into effect March 4, with the
democratic administration.
Under the provisions of the Reilly
law, which is for the protection of pos
tai clerks, sufficient clerical force
must be provided in every postofice to
accomplish the work of the office with
in the specific time outlined by the law.
For this reason it will be necessary
that two new clerks be installed in the
local office, as the law provides that
overtime pay is to go to the clerks
who must do the work in case the ex-
ira clerks are not provided at once.
The addition of two extra clerks 10
the force of men now at work at the
local postoff1ce will give that institu-
tion ample and adequate working
force. The work of the office may then
be handled very expeditiously and far
more satisfactorily to both The force
of clerks employed there and to the
public-at-large.
The following bulletin, sent out un-
der date of January IL by the United
National Association of Postoffice
Clreks, gives information relative to,
the raising of salaries of clerks re-
Gently and in a general way to the
Reilly law:
"The house has adopted the Moon.

den provision stipulating that substi-
tutes shall be paid at the rate of -
cents per hour for all vacation, tenn
porary and auxiliary work and that
substitutes shall receive the regular
pay of the clerk in whose place he may
be working, has not been finally
adopted but we are confident of its
passage
THE house adopted the provision for

THE house also agreed to the fol-
lowing provisions For 1922 promo

scientific knowledge or practical

On their own account and with
some of them so firm is the OBJ

sums of money and considerable
labor in working test-pits and
churn drills at spots where expert

who has been working for two

An announcement of the week
which is of general interest to
mining men engaged in exploration
work on the Mesaba range is the
fact that drills. working on a prop
erty on the Guyana range, the
Guyana lille Laos, sunk through a
greensboro formation developed an
underlying deposit of high grade
IRON ore. Ore is rarely encount er-

led beneath greensboro, which is
one of the oldest formations found
in this section. There have been
occasional cases, however, of dis
coveries of this kind. Heretofore
the theory has held ON the Guyana
range that greensboro was a posi-
tive indication that drilling further
for iron was useless. In the early
days of this range the same theory
applied to taconite. One of the
first exceptions to it was the
Mountain Iron mine, which was be.
lieved to be practically exhausted
when test pits sunk through a
taconite formation developed big
deposits underneath. Time was toe
when the drill men pulled up
stakes when black slate was dis
covered, but many exploration
firms now work in black slate
formations for considerable dis
lance before abandoning holes in
which the drills encounter it.
