CIVIC ASSOCIATION WORKER
TELLS FRENCH EXPERIENCES

In her charming apartment at the
Gladstone, Eleventh and Pine streets,
Mrs. Imogen B. Oakley cheerfully re-
counted her European experiences, for
she has Just returned from France, and
glad she Is to be at home again. Accom-
panied by Miss Ella Robb, secretary of
the Civic Club in this city, Mrs. Oakley
sailed for the shores of Brittany early in
July, where she spent one happy month
and then proceeded on to Tours On her
arrival she was greeted with vague news
of the war, but did not feel unduly
alarmed.
However, the seriousness of the position
for Americans abroad was brought sharp
ly home to her on the following morn
ing. On going out to get some checks
cashed she discovered. ruefully. that not
soul would cash them. The French
landlady proved a good friend in trouble
she Immediately said. "Madau1e will stay
as long as she likes and will pay me
next year" Indeed, to stay in Tours was
the only possible thing to do. for all the
trains were used for mobilization pur-
poses, and even had she had the money
Mrs. Oakley could not have left.
The daughter Of the late George F. Baer
was in like predicament at Tours and
was also forced to stay For two weeks
she had to do without her favorite after

Dream looked pretty solemn; you
see, he liked all those things, too. And
even goldhshs troubles sound
pretty dreadful if they are said right
out all together that way
Then he remember how foolish it
is to worry about troubles or to think
about things one can't have.
II suppose that's all true" he an
swered Really Truly, and then he
added calmly, but you see l don't

we heartily agreed.
"The Loire is too beautiful for words,'
said Mrs Oakley. You know 1t is called
the Garden of France. Crop after crop
of strawberries appears there in a sngla
season. for the climate is so equable and
delightful that everything grows rapidly.

This winter Mrs. Oakley intends to con-

American Civic Association will doubt
less have busy and a useful time.

HOME KNITTED COAT
SWEATERS TO MEET
SCARCITY OF TOGS
War May Have Serious
Effect on the Price of Out
of-door Garments for Chill
dren.

| NE of the first considerations for
out-of-doors garments for children
Is warmth without undue weight
1t is in this particular that the sweater
| coat excels, and while II Is not suitable
for state or festive occasions, 1t is an
admirable garment for play or everyday
wear, and distinctly picturesque into the
bargain
Today's illustration shows sweater
coat Of champagne-co colored silk fastened
with knitted buttons Of the same color,
and tied with sash ending in tassels.
The cap exactly matches the sweater
in color, weave and trimming, as there
Is a button on one side and tassel on
the other
1t is an excellent model, either for pur-
chase or for home manufacture. 1t has
been designed on the most simple lines,
and the sweater was never meant to be
ornate, although 1t sometimes is.
1t Is knitted with the regulation stitch,
but the sash prevents 1t from looking
either plain or severe.
Any one at all skilled in knitting would
find it an easy model to copy.
There are several grades of wool that
could be substituted for the silk, and
any color, either light or dark, could be
chosen in the place OF the champagne
color OF the illustration.
Although 1t Is early in the year TO
speak of Christmas. the rumor has
started and keeps on growing, that there
will be dearth of toys and playthings
this year
Some Of the toy shops and department
stores that make a showing of such
things received their supplies from Eu
rope before the war broke out
They are probably in the minority. II
the prices go up in proportion to the
scarcity Of the articles it will make
rough shedding for many householders,
It is commonly said that the number
of children is In reverse ratio to the
worldly goods of the parents. which may
be the law of compensation manifesting
itself obscurely. But II the prices of toys
are prohibitive the children must not go
without gifts.
A Eay-colored cap and sweater would
delight the heart of any child, and it Is
surprising how quickly they reach COM
pletion when they are started and worked
on in the odd moments that otherwise
might pass with nothing to show.
And, Furthermore. knitting Is recon-
mended by physicians as a sedative to
nerves.

"Now, you know perfectly we'll that
you are goldfish and that you are
shut up solidly in this tiny bowl, SO
what is the use OF pretending?"
The first goldfish. whose name, by
the way, was Dream, softly nosed the
top of the water, then darted down
and swan around the bottom of the
bowl before he quite made up his mind
what to reply.
"Of course all that you say is true,

Now, Dreams partner in the fish
bowl was named Really Truly be-
cause he had such a really truly little
short tail! SO short it seemed as ii it
couldn't possibly belong to a goldfish.
Dreams tail was large and "spready"
and so dainty and filmy that it seemed

Dream got his name, you see,

SYSTEM At

Development work is progressing
at a very satisfactory pace at the
No. 1 shaft of the Amalgamated Pr
oche and since the work of sinking

1870 feet has been gained.
Supt. Van Wagenen has announced
hat the bonus to the men has been

and each of the men employed in
the shaft this week will participate
in the bonus, as reports from the
mine last night indicated that con-
siderably more than 81 feet would be
made during the week. In addition
to the weekly bonus, Mr.. VanWa-
genen states that an additional dollar
ger foot goes to each man for every
foot over 100 feet made during the
month.
For some days, the Amalgamated
company has had a force engaged on

lease on the Greenwood mine. The
leasers have a fine block of ore ex-
posed at the south end of the $50

siderable tonnage of ore ready for
shipment. The hoist has been put
in repair and everything appears to
be in readiness for a very active
campaign.
At the Yuba lease. the work of
building a new shaft house and fall
lows frame is progressing at No. 3
shaft, and a hosting engine will soon
be installed. The leasing company
has also leased a portion of the bunk

pears that all the requirements of the

While at all times 1t has not been
practical to get the five per cent rate
it was made possible by the bonding
act of the last session. Shortly after
ward the board took action, but in
stead of investing all the money
available, the amount stated pre-
viously was invested and the state
school fund took up the rest of the

ROCHESTER, MINES GETS
ORE IN ANOTHER BLOCK

Word has been received by J. F.
Cowan of Salt Lake that the No. 8
lease on the Rochester property had
struck ore. The values average
across five feet $50 to 500, accord
ing to this report, and at a depth of
400 feet from the surface. This is
the first time pay ore has been dis
covered in this particular block of
ground.
Relative to other activities in camp
the Reno Gazette says that G. N. Mil
Ter said he had completed negotia-
tions for the Plainview group at the
head of Limerick canyon in the Hum
boldt range for $4,000, the terms of
which are not made public.j Mr.. Mil
Ter conducted the negotiations for the
Associated Mines Development com
pany.
The company also has taken over
control of the Plainsights, Limerick
and Lucky Joe groups in the imme-
date vicinity. 1t will outline it's pro-
gram for development work in a
few days. These properties are in
the northern part of the Rochester
district. Extensive development has
been prevented by "a long-drawn-out

ARIZONA COMMISSION
GRANTS s. P.'S REQUEST

PHOENIX, Feb. 1.-THE Southern
Pacific railroad which applied to the
corporation commission of Arizona,
has secured authority for the COM
panyt to borrow $5O,O00,0 600 in twenty
year convertible five per cent bonds.
The order is identical with that of
the California railroad commission.
The testimony before the Arizona
commission was general as to what
s the railroad intended to make
of the money.
