Bishop Henry Lewis Reports On
Promising Property In Which Lehi
People Are Heavily Interested.

Bishop Henry Lewis returned Mon
day from Carlin. Nevada, where he
went to look after the interests of
the Nevada Anaconda Mining COM
pany's property, located twelve miles
from the above named station, on the
Southern Pacific and the Western Pa

about $4,000 worth of development
work on the property during the past
year and demonstrated the fact, so
Mr. Lewis thinks, that the company
has the making of great mine. The
property contains mammoth copper
vein carrying IL per cent copper, and
a we'll defined vein of carbonate ore
running high In lead and silver.
The leasers have run several tun-
nels OH the lead carbonate vein. dem

Mr. Lewis says that Swails noun

EDUCATIONAL BODIES
 MAY BE CONSOLIDATED
PRESIDENT DOYNE SAYS TWO ORGANIZATIONS MAY UNITE
 AT LOUISVILLE.

The Conference for Education in the South and the Southern Educa- tlonal Association, both of which will be Tn session at Louisville this week. Will probably be consolidated to form one strong southern educational or ganizatlon, according to President J J Doyne of the State Normal School. President Doyne is a member of the board of directors of the Southern Educational Association and is secre tary of Conference for Teacher Train ing. the most important department of the Conference for Education in the South. He left today to attend the sessions of the organizations and will be away the greater part of the week
 In an editorial in the current num- Der of the Arkansas Teacher Presi- dent Doyne discusses the Louisville meeting as follows:
 Teachers and other friends of edu- cation should be much interested in the coming Louisville meeting, April 7-10, of the Southern Educational As sociation and the Conference for Ed ucation in the South. For many years these two organizations have main tained a separate existence, but it is the expectation of those who have the interests of both at heart to see them merge into one
 Tt seems expedient that this should be done. Those who attend the form CT are usually to be found at the meetings of the latter. The questions to be discussed and the interests in volved as indicated by the programs of these organizations are, for the most part, similar in character.
 "The great work done by the South ern Conference deserves the highest commendation. The memory of MT. Robert C. Ogden will long be cherish ed by those who knew him for years
