that the curtailment of production by fifty per cent. was carried on a lit tie too long and that there may be temporarily a shortage of supply while, the increased output of the mines is on the road to the refineries and while the refiners' vats are be- ing restocked. Anyway, the situation is so developing that the new pro- duction of Inspiration and Chuquica- mata, of which we shall begin to hear a good deal about the middle of this year, will be regarded with eqanim- ity. Contributory, also, to the strength of tne present situation is the fact that the copper ouput of Mexico is now reduced to a very small figure. Engineering and Mining Journal.

Gunners' Patron Saint.

Why was St. Barbara chosen to be the patron saint of all gunners? It is one of those things which are to be known and which one ought to know, but does not. Meanwhile there is the fact that she does intercede for all gum ners by land or sea.
 In the old French navy the Ste. Barbe was the gun room. and the name may be found with that meaning at tached to it in all dictionaries. More over, in France she is the saint not only of gunners. but of all fire brigades. The sapeurs pompiers hold their holi- day on the day of her feast.- Westmin ster Gazette.

EUROPES HUMAN WASTE.

Sociologic experts in Europe are
agitating species of legalized polyg-
amy to recuperate the wasted human
material caused by the present war.
1t is tie old cry of the end justifying
the means. Europe faces the greatest
race depletion in the history of the
world.
But why should Europe add sin to
woe by a polygamous teaching. See
what polygamy has done for Turkey.
With all of her years of it she is
still rated third class.
If Europe is really interested in
the future there's proper way to
provide for it without breaking the
recognized laws Of civilization. Stop
this senseless war of greed and re-
turn the millions to their families
where they belong.
