AnnIversary,s Meaning.

Loyalty to America-that is the
theme for Memorial day as for no
other since that sacred anniversary
was established. There is scarcely a
day in the year when in one way or
another we are not concerned with the
question of our rights and privileges
let Memorial day be that on which we
take special thought of our duties.

The Burden

The prices of all things are

you'll soon pay more for soup and
pie and liverwurst, you bet. Inc
prices of all things are high, and
they'll be higher yet; no wonder
that you heave a sigh, if you are
plunged in debt. At all times
debts a curse and blight that
robs life of its bloom, and when
the nations whoop and fight 1t
is a thing of doom. The man
who doesn't owe a red may calm
" view the storm; he'll have
enough to lay in bread and keep
the shanty warm. And IT an
evil day should come when he
must ask for tick, the merchants
will not haw or hum, but say
EYES," pretty quick. And If he
has to borrow mon, the banker
will observe, "You are a thrifty
lad, my son; I've watched your
every curve. When others went
in debt with speed, you were a
cautious gent, and now I'll lend
YOU all YOU need, at seventeen
per cent" But if you've always
run behind, have always owed
the price. the banker you will
surely find as cold as Greenland's
ice. Dark days may come upon
us soon, the times that make
men sweat; unhappy then the
thriftless loon who always is IN
debt. WALT MASON.

DR.. David E. Buckingham, Washing

Mineralogy and Geology-The work
Is planned TO give the prospector and
mine owenr thorOgh knowledge of
at least one hundred common and i'm

Blowpiping is taught as an aid to

part of the work Is strongly en-
phasized.
Assaying-The determination OF

ana other constituents by wet methods
is taught.
This course is entirely of a labora.
tory character, and each student is
given individual instruction and does
MS work under the immediate supervi-
sion of an experienced instructor.
Ore Treatment-The underlying
principles involved in the treatment of
ores are studied and explained. Spe-
clal emphasis is laid upon concentra-
ton. including flotation ESQ important
III ldahol. Other methods. such as
stampmilling. amalgation. and cyan

dohe on small-scale testing machines
ana later on the larger units.
Designs of some of the larger mills

are met with in the state investigated,
Opportunity will be given for per-
sons enrolled in the course to test their
own ores.

SCHOOL OF MINES.
Announcement Of Short Courses In Ge-
Ology, Mining, Assaying, and
Ore Treatment.

Every winter the School of Mines of
the University of Idaho throws open
its laboratories and class-rooms for the
use and instruction of the prospectOrs,
the miners, the millmen, and the smell
ter men of the Inland Empire Bust
ness men interested in various phases
Of the mining industry also frequently
avail themselves of the opportunity
thus Afforded to gain more exact
knowledge of ores, their occurrence
and treatment.
This Miners Short Course" as 1t is
termed. opens January 4th and runs
for eight weeks.
The entrance requirements are sim
pie. Seriousness of purpose and abil-
ity to read and write intelligently and
to work ordinary problems in arithme-
tic are the necessary qualifications.
There is no age limit--white-hai old
prospectors and recent high-school
graduates have taken the course side
by side.
Facilities and Cost.
The equipment of the University for
mining and metallurgical work is ex-
cellent; the assay laboratory Is the
most complete in the west, and the
milling and metallurgical laboratories
are uneXcelled. The short course stu
dent not only has the advantage of
studying and using this equipment. but
has also the opportunity of observing
at close range the experimental work
being carried on by the local staff of
the United States Bureau of Mines on
treatment methods for Idaho ores
The tuition and the use of the labor
atories is free to all. A deposit
amounting to $500 is required to de-
fray the cost of coal burned, fluxes
and chemicals used and apparatus
broken The unexpended balance is
returned at the end of the course.
Other than this the only expense Is
for room and board
Practical Instruction.
The instruction is given by members
of the regular faculty of the School of
Mines and is entirely practical in char
acter, a large portion of the work being
done In the laboratory. For example,
in mineralogy the actual minerals are
studied, first in the type collection
with labeled specimens until the ap-
pearance of the mineral is well known !;
and then the short-course student tests
his knowledge by identifying unlabeled
specimens. The same procedure Is
followed in work with bl0wpipe deter
mination OF minerals not readily iden-
titled by appearance.
In asaying, the short-course student
first learns the method of preparing
the sample, of fluxing the ore, and of
firing the furnace. Weighing opera
tions are TIM studied and the entire
process is learned step by step until the
