Mr.. Rand is expected in Phoebe in
Il few days when a meeting Of the
directors will be called for the pur-
pose of outlining plans for the fut-
ure.
One of the first things to be done

erwise made to operate the property
upon an extensive scale.
The Virginia-Louise is no pros
pect; but big developed mine with
great ore reserves awaiting extrac-
ton and market. With the big war
time demand for the prducts Of the
mines, there should be no delay In
placing the mine upon a permanent,
dividend-paying basis.

NEVADA'S INDIAN MAIDS
WANTED ON COAST

Girls from the Carson Indian school
at Stewart are in great demand in
Oakland and San F francisco as house
keepers, says the Gazette. This year
forty-three from the school have been
sent to the bay cities and each one
is holding position in some prom
inent family. The girls like the work.
say the authorities of the school, but
for some of them il is a hard task
TO pass through Reno without stopping
for day or two.
Last week two girls started for Oak
land. but only got as far as Reno
when they changed their mind. They
were having a great time at the car
nival when one of the school authori-
ties found them. 1t was only a few
minutes until train time, but he Sc
cured their baggage, placed them on
the train, and accompanied them to

METROPOLIS PEOPLE
PAID HIGH TRlBuTE

The Wells Herald pays the follow.
ing nne tribute TO the people of Me-
tropolis:
The people OF EIko county. by their
liberal contributions to the Red Cross
fund. have proven their patriotism,
and that they can be depended on to
do their bit" The Herald does not
intend to detract one iota from the
credit due all parts OF the county, but
1t seizes this opportunity of calling at
tention to the donation made by the
people Of Metropolis. That section
was called upon to contribute $3.50,
and 1t subscribed over $500. The action
is notice to the world that the peo-
pie there are good, loyal American
citizens. In order to raise such an
amount of money, many of the resi-
dents Of the section were compelled
to make sacrifices that did not attend
in other portions of the county, and
this is all the more to their cedit. A
few years ago there was nothing at
MeIIppOliSt save Il large IdnCu sur
rounded by sage brush. With the
coming of the Pacific Reclamation
company. people begun to move in and
settle. Some of them were possessed
of means, but the majority were in
very moderate circumstances and
came to Nevada to make homes for
themselves, many settling on dry"
lands. Two or three years of sue
cessive shortage OF the usual amount
of precipitation, frosts and an army
OF rabbits to contend with, have act
ed greatly against their success and
prosperity. But they have continued
to have faith and have remained TO
battle against adversely. With all of
the drawbacks, they have continued
to maintain their love of liverty, and,
under the circumstances, can easily
claim that they have done more than
any other section in the whole state
when the appeal for Red Cross funds
was made to them. The Herald tips
its hat to them; they are a loyal
people, and are going to build a coun-
try in the Metropolis region that will
be an empire in itself.
