the state Mr.. Manson said yesterday:

Nevada at present than / have seen

optimistic view of the metal market,
and are expecting higher prices for

CALL OF THE WILD
IN new FORM
BY United Press.


SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 16.-Up in
Alaska, where John Nelson has been
seeking his fortune. he heard no talk.
He liked the great silent places" but
there came a day when he wanted to
get back to clvilization-to the wife
and kiddie here.
So he came. Yesterday was the
great fete day. Nelson seemed hap
Ply, ven proud, that he could take the
wife and kiddie to the restaurants,
theaters and automobile riding.
But John wasn't exactly happy.
Late one night they stopped their
auto at a beach cafe for just one final
round before going home.
Give them anything they want"
Nelson whispered to the waiter as he
excused himself and went inside.
An hour passed. The joyful wife
and the now sleepy kiddie grew rest
less. Finally, desperate and fearing
something untoward had befallen
John, his wife sent a waiter inside to
find out about Nelson.
She learned.
Dear Wife:-I have been in the
great silent places for so long, that
your talk gets my goat. / will send
you money from time to time. Good
bye. John" was the message he hur-
riedly scrubbed and sem back.
That's what she told the assistant
district attorney.
