ZEB RAY PREDICTS
BOOM FOR NEVADA


Zeb Ray Of Nevada. well known as
one of the live wires in the mining
business of that State, has been in
Denver for the past several days on
business connected with his mining
operations there, says the Denver
Mining Record. Mr.. Ray took a
prominent part in the development
of several important properties in
Nevada and believes that the State
has a greater future than its Won
derful past. He vas in the front rank
of every boom from TonOpah to
Wonder. and probably has as great
a knowledge of Nevada mines as any
operator in the State. He is very
partial to certain properties in camps
of that State and expects to see these
properties. prominent in the boom
days, the scene of sane development
work and activity again. In his
opinion there arr liable to be sensa-
tional developments in the camp of
Goldheld at any time that will cause
a repetition of the boom days in that
wonderful district. New capital is
going into old Nevada camps and the
State is on the eve of another big
development period. He believes the
camp Of Fairview has great possibili-
ties on account of the high copper
and silver values in the ores, which
at present prices of metal present
great possibilities in profits from these
ores.

Army-Navy Secretary of 7. NJ.
C. A. Thinks Physical Drill
is Big Feature

Whatever theories We may hold
concerning military drill for boys,
writes j. s. Tichenor of the army and
navy department of International Y. NJ.
G.. A., the time has come when the
people Of this country must sQuarely
face the issue of preparedness" >.....
Tichenor. who win be remembered
we'll here by the service hen OF Ha-
waii. dciares in an article entitled
Preparedness" that il is a mistaken
idea some people hold that military
preparedness means merely the carry
ing OF a gun or tactical meneuyers.
His article in Association men fol-
lows: .- - H..
IF we will discount Unwarranted
statements made at both extremes of
this discussion. We will soon come to
agreement This will probably be on
the basis, as far as our younger boys
are concerned, at least, of a physical
drill for military preparedness rather
than a military drill for physical pre-
parednesS. - --. .--u
There is a tremendous racial need
for vitality Our younger boys need
training rather than tactics; strength
rather than strategy; and the object
i've should be preparation for life in
its widest aspect rather than the
training of boys in earlier years for
any specific profession or vocation
The need for better training and
preparation is woefully apparent.
When the University of Pennsylvania
examined 1856 of the students to find
out how many were physically perfect,
it was discovered that only 81 men,
or about per cent, could pass the
test H..
General Wood says that about 81
per cent of the young men of this
country are physically prepared for,
the rigors of a soldiers life. Out of
over 10000 examined for the marine
corps in 1915, only 1888 were accepted,
The report of the adiutant general of
the United States army for 1915 shows
that out OF 1914 applications, only
1898 were accepted for enlistment.
These reflections are almost entirely
for physical defects. OF the 10000
extra soldiers needed by the recent
Congressional enactment, $3.50 were
selected out of 1869 applicants. While
it is very possible that these applf
cants were not of the average stami-

Does Presence
OF Lady Allow
Tipping Of Hat ?

What is Tie proper method of saiut-
ing an officer when that officer is &C.
companted by a lady? This IS one of
the disputed questions that exist
among local army men
. According to the military regula-
tiCns the military salute shall be Civ
ell, and the military salute consists
in salute with the right hand TO the
forehead.
II an officer has lady with him.
however, shall the military, rule be
persisted in, or shall the saluter tip
his hat or cap? And what shall the
saluted do in turn? Shall he acknowl-
edge the salute in consideration of the
lady with him, tipping his hat in
turn? Or shall he stand by the mill
tary regulations and salute in formal
fashion?
Sometimes it's private meets an
officer with lady, and sometimes it's
an officer meets a private with a
lady and sometimes it's both of them
that have ladies, but as to the hat
tipping question local army men say
there is dispute. ... .~
At one post an officer will demand
the military salute only. while at an
other the civilian tip will be allowed.
Some time back in the past, il is
said, the War Department issued or
dets allowing either method. but still
the question is disputed one.
