all such recreation plans should be
carried out by the natives themselves,
and not by irresponsible shoWn1en
from the Bowery,. with a tarln OF caro-
sharpers and gambling touts. the
continuing success of the experiment
is demonstrated by the plan to organ
lie at Armenia today a permanent body
to carry 1t on. Indeed, 1t will soon
pass out of the experimental stage,
after another year or two of trial,
when it will probably no longer de-
pend on the initiative of n public
spirited man. That something must
be done to organize country workers
along social lines has long been rec
ognized; this as much as the needs
of the cities was a compelling reason
for the organization of the Playground
Association of America in 1906. n
country man has taken his pleasures
not only sadly and seriously, but alto
gether too much by himself; his sports
have been the solitary sports-hunting
and fishing. From this in the country
town the reaction has been to the bar
room. the lodge room, the billiard
table. and. latterly. the moving pic
ture show. with its great possibilities
ing places. with opportunities for
harmless. healthful, stimulating rec
reation-these the countryside has
only begun to have.
How shall they be made common?
The Armenia experiment points h
way. 1t must first of all be a truly
democratic undertaking. 1t cannot be
imposed from above. and the CONNER
cial spirit must be as far removed as
is possible. AT the same time. too
fine a ~straininng Is to be guarded
against. Unless it should be because
of the question of an entrance fee,

vilion will doubtless some day be
added. If there is a great cutlery
against the modern dances. a place
like this is the very one to demon
strate that they can be danced as
modestly as the old. just as it can be
proved that far more entertaining side
shows are possible than the old vul-
gar exhibitions of monstrosities or
off -scourings OF Bowery music hall
stages. Finally, it is the spirit of, co"
operation which is going to count
most, and that spirit was largely in
evidence at Armenia. 1t is probably
too early to test by statistics the pre-
vailing stories of the improved mental
health of the women of the farms by
reason of the coming Of the telephones,
the rural free delivery, and the farm
ers' automobiles. But that is not
enough; there must be provided as
well, recreation and amusement, else
the back to the farm and the "stay
on the farm movements will gain
slowly. Must I spend the rest OF my
life between these hills? was the

A Thousand Years az Gold.

Engineering and Mining journal:
Like a tale out of the Arabian Nights
Is the opinion given recently by an
expert on the future of Alaska gold
mining, only this expert bases his
opinion on facts whereas the oriental
story teller specialized in fancy.
But the testimony Just given by
Falcon Joslin before the senate COM
mittee at Washington is doubly inter-
esting because it exceeds the imagina-
ton of the widest fancy while being
based on the facts in the case.
We quote Mr.. Joslin's testimony as
follows:
In my judgment the placer-mining
industry in Alaska will last. a thousand
years, the area suitable for placer
mining is SO enormous. What we are
working there now is only the graveis
that will carry from SO to $40 per yard.
You cannot work gravels that carry
less than that, hut once we have trans
p~ortation there, and can work gravels
such as thes' do in California, which
carry &c per yard, we have got so
T,early an unlimited area of it that no
ma can foresGe the end IF that lndus-
try In Alaska. There are twenty Or
thirty dredges in the Seward PENN
sula. There is one dredge at Fairbanks
and a~nothertin the Circle CITY district.
Inere are eight or teil dredgeS in lite
Klondike, which is identically similar
country. They operate about $50 days
per year. They usually work up until
November, beginning some time i'm
May. They are working gravels aa
Dawson, which is an older camp than
Fairbanks. that carry soc per yard.
And In some cases they are working
gravel by dredging as low ais 40c per
yard at q profit in the Dawson coun-
try. We will eventually, when our
transportation gets better, be able to
work gravels OF that tenor In Alaska.
One great thing is that nearly the
whole area of Alaska is gold bearing.
There are placers and quartz. 1T has
been said. and | believe the statistics
and explorations or the geological sur
vey show 1t. that you could 60 from
the extreme southeast of Alaska. at
Ketchikan, where there are important
mines, along this route BY way on
Hams, clear out to Nome, a distance
Of 1000 miles In a straight line, ana
that In every twenty-mile section
along that route you could develop
gold mines. II is infinitely greater
than any other area OF gold country
that has ever been found iii the
world. 4
