Der, two mammoth drivers, the
largest ever set up On the Pacific
Coast, were constructed, that were
135 feet high and the hammer of
one of them weighed 16, 900 pounds,
hitting 90 times a minute, or once
every second in operation, with
$500 moving part. To be sure of
the foundation of the building, test
piles were driven before the regu-
lars were pounded into the earth
and they were loaded with pig iron
from the Company's Sacramento
foundry, to assume the required
weight the regulars would be called
upon to support.
There are two big concrete plants
now on the job. These will use
from two to three carloads of ce-
ment day, pouring 400 yards of
concrete, which means, because of
the limited street room and the
congestion of traffic at the site for
feeding the plants, that Is big mo-
tor trucks loaded with rock and
sand are brought in each day. Only
good organization can keep the
work in progress every twenty-four
hours.
The moving of the Buckley Bldg.
which was On the Spear street side
of the new building, was no small
job. 1t weighs 5000 tons, measures
157 feet by so, had 3 stories and
basement and was showed back ESQ
feet on Spear Street without so
much as window pane be ng
broken. It was moved, intact,
with its basement. Piles from 90
to 100 feet long we're required. Of
course donkey engine furnished
the motive power, but the power
was SO multiplied that the engine
was not fastened to the ground.
The great trouble encountered was
to run it slowly enough. AS it was,
the Buckley Building retreated at
rate of rs feet day until it had
gained the site selected for it.

far as to say the morals of nation,

men and not by the woman
Woman will take care of her
share and she will go as high and
lift as much of the worlds load as
men, at the same time she will go
as low down into He'll as man.
But don't forget that man leads the
way Where one woman is delin-
quent a hundred men are de1in-
quent. Where one woman is sent
to the reform school, forty boys
and men are sent to the Reform
School. Where one woman goes
to prison, eighty men go. Every
time one woman murders, or steals
or forges or swindles, a. hundred
men commit the same crimes. For
every girl that falls, we will find a
thousand boys that fall and fall
just as low and just as truly as do
the girls. Let us get rid of the i'd
ca forever that there is any differ
ence between the girl going wrong
and the boy going wrong.
I have been talking to boys and
men all these years and will keep
at it while Logger, at least until I

Rev. Raley Speaks
Interesting Talk is Given.
Subject: ''That Boy"

That Boy" is not fiction or a
myth, but real boy of flesh and
blood. He lives in the city of
Phoenix and his name is Harry
Wi1kenson.
Harry came running into a wom-
ans meeting a few weeks ago and
pushed another boy over, stumbled
over a chair and went on his way
as though it was part of the pro-
gram. One of the good women
present exclaimed: MY, tha t
boy = In her voice, was anger,
despair, rebuke and prophecy.
Harry is the real thing in boy
lines. He.is ali boy and then some.
He is the DR.. Jeky11 and Mr.. Hyde
In boydom. He is as,bu1ly, cruel,
tyranica1, selfish, irreverent, noisy,
disobedient and unsympathetic; at
the same time, he is noble, kind,
loving, reverent, responsive and
everything that has promise of a
great man.
Harry is a starting point for
some more about the boy.
One of the girls asked me this
afternoon if twas going to sta1k
some more about boys, after she
had heard me talk quite.a it.about
the boys this morning. At anoth-
er place, a girl asked me why l did,
not talk more about the girls.
One reason why I do rot talk
about girls is because I do not
know much about them. I know
more about the boy because I have
been boy and have never been a
girl
But have far more significant
reason for talking about boys so
much. / think the nations of. the
world and ir..history has center
ed about boys-men. I think the
ebb and flow of all that is worth
putting into the history, centers
about the boys-m men of the history.
/ believe the civilizations of all
times finds the key to its destiny
and goal post the boy The boy is
the center ofEthe-.reforms and revo-
lutions of the.wor1d's history and
the boy is the one who dreams the
worlds dreams, sails out to the new
oceans and pioneers the new worlds
It is the boy aud the man who dis
covers, invents, creates, moulds,
leads the thoughts and ideas of all
time
And this does.snot mean that l

Similar problems have been solved
in the dominions of the Empire with
the result that races and creeds live
side by side in tolerance and mutual
respect; and the watchwords exuding
the bitterness of the past have no sig
nificance. They who abhor despotism
cannot with consistency deny nation
the right to manage it's own affairs.
Coercion is no remedy for discomfort.

The drive for the knights of Colum-
bue $1,00O,000 War Fund is meeting
with cordial cooperation from Catho-
lies throughout the country, ard all in
dications are that the fund will be
readily acquired. In fact, so spon-
taneous has been the response to the
appeal issued by the Supreme Officers
OF the Order that there is every rea-
son to believe that the initial fund
Of $1,0O0,000 will be augmented far in
excess of that amount
One of the most gratifying develop
ments of the campaign for the Fund is
the splendid encouragement and aid
given by the Hierarchy and the clergy
throughout the nation. Apart from
substantial personal contributions the
Cardinals, Archbishops, Bishops and
priests have exhorted the Catholics in
their dioceses and parishes to support
the work, with the result that the en-
tire Catholic population has taken an
active interest and realizes that with
recognition from the United States
Government, the Knight of Columbus,
in it's war relief work, represents the
patriotic effort of the American Cath
olic body
While it is somewhat premature to
give definite figures on the result of
the campaign for the fund so far, con-
servative estimates lead to the expec-
tation that States and cities will ex-
ceed the quotas allotted to them. In
