BOOSTING

Would you like to be thought
stronger and more resourceful than
the average man? Would you like
to have others admire you and look
up to you? The recipe is simple.
Have something good to say about
everybody, about your neighbor, and
about your town. Boost, even if you
have to go out of your way to boost.
Lend a helping hand. Have some
word of encouragement always ready
for the fellow who is down on his
luck. People will think then that
You can afford to do it; that you are
SO successful and so prosperous that
you can see only good in everything.
1t is the man with the petty griev-
ance-the small man-who knocks
Remember that, and try to be above
small things. A good deal of the
old feuda, idea still remains. The an
cient lords could afford to be mag
unanimous. Their motto was 'Nob,esse
Oblige." Their nobility gave them
certain responsibil'tics They were
the leaders. People looked up to
them and depended on them. That
''Noblesse Oblige" is good motto
to adopt today, even when there are
no hereditary lords. 1t is a motto
that the everyday man can adopt and
profit by. If you keep boosting ew-
erywhere you go, others will uncon-
sciously recognize in you a leader.
They will put you down as a man
than others. If you don't believe
this, try 1t for a while and see if it's
not so.

WORTHLESS IRON ORE
is RICH TUNGSTEN

Some thirty-odd years ago the camp
OF Hughesville, situated about two
and one-half miles north of Black
Hawk, Gilpin county, Colorado, was
q producer of silver, and continued
so until tie low price Of the white
metal made production Improbable.
In the course of their work the min
crs frequently encountered what
they considered to be a worthless
species Of iron ore, and this they
tLrew on the dump. 1t now appears
that this supposedly waste material
was nothing less than tungsten, run
ming high in value to the ton. This
fact was discovered recently by a
mining man who operated in Hughes
vile in the early days. He was shown
samples of tungsten ores from mines
in the Nederland district and their
appearance recalled the discarded
ores of Hughesville. He went back
to the old camp, secured samples of
ore, had them assayed, and ascer
tained that his suspicious were well
lHe ore Was tungsten anu
assayed from 7.3 per cent to 2S.2 per
cent.
AS a result he and his associates
quietly secured various claims in the
district and are organizing the Gill
pin Tungsten Production company to
operate the properties, which com
prise about 100 acres. Some of the
claims are well developed, but the
tunnels thru which they were mined
need to be retimbered and put into
condition before active development
work can begin.
The ores in these claims contain
silver. lead, zinc. gold and tungsten.
The silver-lead-zinc ores will be
treated by the Moulton mill at Black
Hawk, as soon as it starts opera
tons, and good profits are anticipat-
cd from this source. However, tung-
stem is expected to be the largest
revenue producer.
