about emphasizing the Strang part
than the Grafton part The Strangs,
she soon mentioned to Janet, were
the old New York Strangs. Mrs
Stedman knew the family, of course
Everybody from New York knew the
Strangs. who had that wonderfully
beautiful 1ld house at the corner of

knew that dignfed mansion Had
often wondered, in fact, who lived
there. This pleased Mrs Grafton. who
had married Bob Crafton's money,
and had regretted it little ever
since Somehow she had not realized
she would have to take Bob along
with the money
Not that he isn't good fellow
she told Janet, "as men go. He has
enormous mining lands in the North
and West and he's away a good
deal
1t occurred to Janet that Mrs Graf
ton said this as one of Bob's recon-
that he was away good

MAKING EDUCA-
TTON POPULAR

1t may stroke the fur of our
prlde against the grain to say il
but education seems to be the
greatest national need in the
United States. Prof James c Egg
bert, director of the extension
teaching department Of Columbia
University, is one who knows the
educational need of the popula
non as an aggregate, and is not
afraid Of being laughed at and
sneered at for suggestions to
remedy the situation. He pro-
poses to establish correspondence
university courses at Columbia
and at the recent opening of the
institution spoke of his plans for
that end, which have been sub
mltted before and not over en-
Enthusiastically received. Prof Egg
bert says the question whether
Columbia can have correspondence
courses without loss of dignity is
answered in the affirmative by the
success of private institutions
which have commercially exploit
ed that system.
The director of extension work
seems to be keenly alive to the
needs Of the country for a social
lzatiOn of education, or, as he ex-
presses it, "a characterization, "
eliminating the taint of profit
making which, he says, has no
legitimate place in educational
work He declares that if Column
bia or any other university can
carry on correspondence courses
on the same basis as its regular
class work it is bound by its duty
to society to do SO.
The correspondence court in
university work may not come
this year or next, but it is certain
to be here before many years as
the first big step in the socializa-
tion of education. The more gen.
eral diffusion of knowledge is set
down by prominent sociologists as
the first step in the solution of
many Of the problems that now
are thorns in society's side.

HOW THE LLOYD
GOT INTO GEORGE

He was born George, and
christened David.
Orphaned early, he went with
his mother to live with an uncle
named Lloyd.
In honor of his wother's brother
the youngster called himself not
plain David George, but David
Lloyd George.
In his early political career he
was called Mr. George.
But the emphasis he put on the
Lloyd got people into the habit of
using also his middle name; he
became Mr. Lloyd George.

Shattuck- . Aripona

Shattuck Arizona production aver ages 16OO,O 900 pounds of copper per month. and it is learned that the com pany received 18.365 cents a pound for it's metal in November, which was average top price for that period.
 The Shattuck company has been criticised in past years for shutting down or curtailine production during periods of low prices, but the man agement is now being complimented for its far-sighted policy. Shattuck could have marketed millions of pounds of the metal at a narrow mar gin of profit in past years, but did not. and today has that ore to sell at a good profit.
 Arrangements are being made to test out the vanadium deposits located in Shattuck early last spring. The great value of these is well under stood and the company aims to have this mineral handled so that the com pany will obtain the greatest possi- ble benefit, and is in no hurry to dispose of it.

A Happy Ne wYear

To all the readers of the mining columns, and especially the boys in the hlIlS the new year certainly looks eX- CeedIngly bright and favorable to every one in mining Word came from New ork few days ago from one of the worlds financiers, saying that we may expect tremendous interest in mining at the beginning of the year. All con- dltons favor this opinion and conclu- sion, for there is a greater demand Tor metals at the present time than ever the world has known. and this IS going to continue And the demand Is for all metals and must keep steady. One reason for this especially IS the extraordinary amount of vast age going on in the war area. Most of the metals used are entirely lost there is little returned as scrap. So all the metal so usedl has to be re placed by new supplies and after the war this replacing must continue for a long time. Gold we have not had enough of never did have and prob ably never will, hence the ever con tInuous demand. Mining today is better investment than railroads or industrials and is giving greater in duCements

The output of refined pig lead from domestic ores was about 515,000 tons, worth about $4S,5OOOO0. as compared with 512.794 tons in 1914. an increase of only 2,50O tons in quantity, but of $S,500,000 or 20 per cent. in value The production of antimonial lead was 2O,550 tons. as compared with 16,66S tons in 1914, an increase of 3,SS2 tons, or g per cent. in quantity and an increase in value of nearly g., 900. 900.
 Gold and Silver Increases
 The annual preliminary estimates on the production of gold and silver in the United States, made jointly by the United States geological survey and the bureau of the mint. are not yet complete. but early figures based on reports from the mines indicate an increase in mine production over that of 1914 of over $7,0O0,O00 in gold. prin- cipaIIy from Colorado, California. Alaska, Montana and Idaho, and an increase in mine production of silver of fully 4.0O0. 900 ounces chiefly from Montana. Utah and Arizona This in crease of gold production may bring 1915 up to the record year of 1909, when the gold output of this country was nearly S1OO, 100000.
 Quicksilver also had it's best year in 1915. The quantity increased 25 per cent over 1914, but the value of the output more than doubled, owing to the much higher prices. The esti- mated production was 2O,6S1 flasks of 75 pounds each. valued at the aver age price for the year-the highest in the last forty years at S1,76S,225. In value. this domestic production was the highest since 1881, and in quan- tity the largest since 1912.
 Small Change in Coal
 The production of bituminOuS coal and anthracite in 1915 is estimated to have increased between four and five million short tons, or less than 1 per cent The quantity of bituminous coal mined increased about six and one half million tons and that of anthra- cite decreased over two million short tons. Owing mainly to steady de mands for export coal and for coke for steel making the output in Penn svIvania, West Virginia, Kentucky and Alabama increased over that of last year but little change is recorded in other eastern states. The region west of Ohio. including the Mississippi Val lev. showing general decrease, Colorado being the only western state to show betterment.

LARGE OUTPUT OF ARIZONA
 MINES IN 1915
Increases in Value Of Metal Output 50
 Per Cent. Over 1914

The output of gold. silver, copper, lead and zinc at mines in Arizona in 1915 was valued at $88, ,551 900. accord ing to the United States geological survey, an increase of nearly 48 per cent from that of 1914, which was s59, ,956O29 There was very little change in the output of gold but there were not baenlirace U Q. iso there were notable increases in the other metals, especially in lead and and zinc. Increased prices made difference of nearly $26,000000 in cCp- per, $4O0,OOO in lead and over $2,G90,OOO in zinc. These figures are the esti- mates of V. C. Heikes, staIician of the geological survey.
 The output of gold in Arizona mines increased about l per cent from that of 1914 which was S4,179,155. Gold production from copper ores increased. as every effort was made to market copper bullion when the price ad- vanced, but gold from silicious ores decreased three of the largest pro- ducers of the state having a combined decrease of about 30 per cent in gold and silver bullion The Common wealth mine at Pearce was also large producer, though the main value of the bullion was in silver The dis cOvery of gold near the Tom Reed mine at Oatman was of interest in 1915. There was considerable activity in the camp. where a large body of gold ore is said to he opened at the United Eastern property east of the Tom Reed mine. Tn August about 20 tons were being shipped daily to the Gold Road mill and later in the year preparations were made for building a 200-ton mill
 A record production of silver was made from Arizona mines in 1915, or over "A per cent. The value of this output increased to about $2.71S O00 The greater part of the silver, as for merly, came from the copper ores, but

Nineteen hundred and sixteen was uShered in at Tempe with all the ac- customed New Years eve ceremonies and many parties of many varieties were held about town to watch the passing of old Father Time with it's year 1915 and the advent of the bright and new 1916. At the mid night hour the silence of the night was duly broken and all the noise making devices ever contrived were employed to loudly proclaim the presence of the new year.
 Watch parties, social gatherings. card parties and other forms of the usual New Year eve gatherings were enjoyed by many Tempeans on Fri day night and not a one broke Up until after 1916 became reality.
 At the Cosmopolitan hail probably the most important event of the evening occurred. The Home club entertained with it's customary pleas ant dance, and more than twenty couples attended the event. During the course of the evening light re- treatments were served and other novel New Years eve stunts were in evidence to remind one of the inn portance of the occasion. The iuvi- tation list to the dance included: Mesdames Payne, Carr A. J. Mul len. Antonio, Arnold. Herzberg, Misses Hazel Sandoz. Douglas Max in, Clark, Perrigo, Erina Hodnett, Leona Arnold.

 review of these statements con firms Secretary Lanes comment or last Julv to the effect that the mining revival is in full swing. In the west ern states alone the metal production shows an increase in value Of more than s13O OOO, 900 over the correspond ing figures for 1914, and the years increase in output for the principal metals measured in value more than s25O OOO. 900. Moreover, it is not uh- reasonable to expect that when the fnU returns for all mineral products are complied they will show that lSl9 was the country's most productive wear in the mining industry Ine total may even reach two and halI billion dollars.
