MINING IN MARION COUNTY

While little is being said about it, here in Marion
county, there is great amount of mining work being
done Several companies in the Geld Greek district have
men at work and doing much development work One
company is running 800 foot crosscut which will cut
its ledge at good depth road being built making it
possible to ship concentrates and it will not be long until
this will be DONE The in the district are base and
though carrying good gold value have so far not been
worked because of lack of machinery.
Both chacOpyrite and galena are abundant and with
the present price of lead and "copper" concentrates that
year two ago would not stand shipment and leave any
profit now will pay good dividends
Those interested in mining watching with great
deal of interest the results of the first shipments and are
hopeful they will be such to place Marion county
permanently in the mineral producing class.
There some good bodies of ore in the district and
they give evidence of pemanancy However their values
cannot be determined until at least small plant is at
work and shipments of concentrates made
At present the haul out from the mines is hard big
hill having to be climbed to get to the railroad at Gates
1t is understood road is building that will do away
with this and make Lyons the railroad point for the dis
trict
Salem people are behind most of these mining ven
lures and they have shown faith and grit in the way they
have put up their money for development work They
deserve to win anyway and Salemtes generally hope
sincerely they will.

Discovery of Field of Native Metal Will Help Business

NEW YORK. Sept. 7-The discov- cry by the Canadian Arctic Expe- dltlon headed by Vnhjamur Stefan sson of a great field Of native cop per in the vicinity of Copper Mine River in the neghborhood Of Prince Albert Island, will prove of great value to the business world, says Dr. Chester A. Reeds. of the Ameri- can Museum of Natural History
 Dr. Reeds believes also that it will afford scientists an opportunity for displaying their ingenuity in finding an outlet from a region that Is still unopened in a commercial sense.
 The work of the party which ar rived in Nome, Alaska, is expected to prove valuable in determining the direction Of winds and the move ment of the tides in the Polar re- gions. Mir. Reeds said this work might go long way to prove or iisproye the theory that an un- known continent exists in the great unexpected region north of Alaska and west and northwest of Green land.

HIS SHARE OF THE HORSE
Interfering Individual Evidently Was
Not as Important as He Thought
He Was.

A newly admitted member of big
cooperative society Boosting sixteen
thousand members met one of the So
ciety's vans laden with coal, with
the driver sitting on the shafts.
The new member, full of the i'm
portance of belonging to such big
society, considered it his duty to re-
monstrate with the driver on his want
of consideration toward his horse by
adding his own weight to the load in
stead of walking. The Pathfinder
wound up by saying: I'm a share
holder in the society, and therefore
part owner of your horse and van"
Shareholder, are you?" responded
the coaly, pulling hair out of the
horses tail and handing it to the as
torished member, with the remark:
Here's your share of the animal, mis-.
ter"
He then drove on.

You didn't know that quilting was in
again; we'll, where have you been all
this time? 1t is in style again, oh, not
only bed quilts but running to motifs
on children's clothes, curtains, slip
overs, cushions and table covers, too.
ALI this is of the applique variety. But
the designs are not the oneI which
have been overworked in the church
bazaars and ladies' aids. Instead of
the rose designs there are wonderful
ones just like those OF long ago, done
in the flowers of that date. There are
hollyhocks and morning glories in the
blues and pinks and layenders, in
which the dainty little Cooley persons
were wont to regale themselves. The
quilt is finished in binding from one
inch on to wider of a solid color used
in one of the flowers. The width Of
the border must be {, r4dtter of indi-
vidual taste
Can't you fancy the soft pillows, too?
They have tho background in soft
Cream-quilted, too. Grapes and shad-
ed flowers are used. What a nice,
dainty boudoir pillow one of these
would make. Cretonne o. any color
fast material could be chosen from
which the figures can be cut.
Worsted flowers and cross-stitch in
colored cottons have been utilized to
give the costumes and the coats and
hats of small children the quaint touch
which seems a special part of their
makeup these days. Why not cut two
red, plump cherries from solid red
cloth or from piece figured in cher
ries, add two green leaves and quilt
them closely, then apply them to a
little linen or crepe frock belonging to
her miniature highness On her spring
hat a cluster of flowers in satin or
preferably linen, padded thickly, quilt
ed and sewed to the straw hat would
| be a smart addition.
If you say when you read this that
table cover worked in this way
wouldn't be worth the time and labor

one of monks cloth, then try to buy
one already made and feel your hair
curl at the price. Spring has many

MATERIAL FOR SPRING

The new jersey cloth has some
thing of the feeling of the sweater,
and while the larger part of its use
may be confined to life in the coun-
try and in small towns, there is good
reason to prophesy that it will find its
way in the streets of the great
centers.
Brown is one of the colors that
the dyers of the new jersey cloth evil
IDENTIFY like, for some very smart suits
of it have appeared. Brown has not
been among the fashionable shades
for several seasons. We have quite
ignored it, although we have given a
warm slice of our affections to it's pale
sister, beige. Probably the welcome
accorded the leather tones has sug-
gested to the dyers the introduction of
real brown. The reason, however, 10
a negligible factor in the condition.
The fact remains that brown as well
as gray are colors to be reckoned with
from now on.
There was so much distate on the
part of the fastidious ones for fur
by the time the new year arrived, be-
cause of its lavish use in womens ap-
parel during the last six months, that
everyone thought it's day was done;
and yet, here it reappears in a variety
of capricious ways. For instance, one
of the Palm Beach hats of striped
blue and white linen lawn is edged
with fur, and Poirets idea of
combing skunk out to make it look
like fringe and using ii for trimming
has started an entirely new develop
ment in use of peltry.
He first brought this out on a Brit
tany gown of purple and white striped
silk and velvet, and then the milliners
took it up for the new straw hats.
If you want to employ some of your
leisure time at home in arranging fur
instead of embroidering, you might try
your luck at achieving a Poiretesque
result with an old piece of fur and a
| thick comb.

Word About Spring Hats

For betwe wear satin and
straw combinations are fashionable.
In the best models only very small
quantity of straw is used, and that is
of rich color. From all indications
styles in shapes will be very varied.
Very high effects will continue in
new forms, accomplished mostly by
judicious arrangement of trimmings.
Straws Of high luster or glazed eff
fects will be very pronounced and in
rich dark colors. In contrast to the
richly colored glazed straws will ap-
pear fine hemps and felts in light pas
tel shades. Something new is the use
of knitted silk or cotton such as is
used in making sweaters. These fab
RIGS are used both in plain colors and
in blazer stripes.
Bangkok sailors and fine milan eff
fects are smart and there is host Of
styles in leather, knitted silk, novelty
woolens and the new serge and silk
combinations. Trimmings for this type
of hat are very simple but rich, in
GLIDING novelty ribbon bands, chenille
or silk embroidered flowers, fruits,
birds, small unique feather tufts or
novelty jeweled buckles or orna-
ments. Some sailor shapes have rip
pied and dropping brims. There are
also high-crown sailors with minia-
ture brims turned sharply at the side,
as well as new variations Of the tri-
Qorne and high-back turban.
