Macleay, Ore, Feb. 13.-Without a
hitch to mar the gaiey of the evening.
the Macbeth Good Times club met at
the hail lest Saturday evening. No
business meeting was held, but a vote
was taken concerning the proposed
change of the meeting dates AS carried
the motion provided for meeting to
be held every four weeks, this making
the next meeting fall on March 10. The
social side of the evening was of the
highest order, and it is safe to say that
a more delightful meeting was never
held by the club. Thearefreshment com
mittee, whose personnel was not made
public, furnished luncheon long TO be
remembered by those present. Mr.. and
Mrs. G. f. Garrett acted as chaperones,
and entered isto the fun of the evening
as heartily as if their. more mature
years of life had slippeal away from
them for the time being.
A lively grange meeting Friday drove
away all the dullness of the week and
resulted in the acceptance of five new
members Two of these, Mr.. and Mrs.
O. l.. Martin, had formerly been mem
bers, while the other two, Mr.. and Mrs.
Delbert Mackenzie are strangers to the
mysterious rites of the organization.
Guests of the. day were Mrs. Fletcher
and daughter of Salem, who assisted
in entertaining the company in the af-
ternoon. A literary program of decided
merit was given, after which discussion
of timely topics occupied the minds of
the members. A bountiful dinner was
a feature of the noon hour.

The copper era and Morenci leader., 1917-02-23
WALKERS WEEKLY COPPER
 LETTER.

Copper prices are advancing sharp Iy. Lake is 35 1-2 to 36 1-2 cents and eIectrolytic is 36- 1-2 to '37 cents a pound. Considerable business has been done in cash copper during the past few days on the basis of 34 3-4 to 36 7-S cents delivered. No one seems to know where this copper came from: but it is reported that one or two of the smaller producers had been accommodating their ouput for two or three months and were holding 1t for higher prices.
 It is possible that other lots of cop per may come on the market soon from consumers who several months ago made purchases in excess Of tnefr requirements and also from German consumers who purchased few mll- lion bounds which is being held in this country for delivery after the war. Unless there are sales of this charac- ter it may be necessary for two or three domestic consumers to curtall their operations or shut down ln May or June because of lack of raw ma terial.
 There is a doubt existing quite gen erally of the ability of the worlds con- sumers to absorb, after peace is restor
  now being produced. As a matter of fact it is probable that they will be called upon to do so. The unprece' dented increase of output which oc- cured last year was due almost wholly to the abnormally high prices for which the metal could be sold Mining companies having nothing but very low grade ore resumed opera | tions and produced a full capacity ir order to take advantage of 9 to $ cent copper. Even where their costs were 20 cents a pound or somewhat higher they were able to earn a satis factory margin of profit. All of these com panies are still operating and a few others are preparing to resume production or to increase their ouput
 and they have become a very import ant factor in the trade. A decline in the price of the metal to IS or 19 cents would eliminate, it is believed, at 1n"~+ 70 rc~ ccr+ cf tho. --c-'1'- r'--c5

PHOENIX, Feb. 21.-The sen ate today practically agreed up on compulsory military training in the normal and high schools A bill requiring this has for some time been before that body but had been displaced by a sub stitute prescribing the Wyoming plan for voluntary training. After discussion in the committee of the whole the substitute was re- jected and the original bill, slight ly amended, was restored to its place on the calendar. It car ries an appropriation of $10,500 annually. The bill was agreed to as to that. Members were not sure that was enough and the sub ject was sent to a select commit tee for investigation

metal. In addition the fact has been established that the companies produc- ing the largest tonnage of copper will curtail their output rather than accept what they consider too low prices.
 Some manufacturers of copper and ibrass are reported to have advised their customers recently to delay pur- tchases in expectation of lower prices i for copper. This is a most healthy lsign, as it indicates that manufac- turers have not overbought at high tprices and that they are still buying lsparingly When the metal market is in such a position as this suggests,
 anything more than a very moderate decline in prices is practically impossi i ble.

New bills introduced in the sen

New bills introduced in the sen ate were:
 By Golfer, of Apache, to enable the state to accept federal legis- lation for rights of way over pub lie lands within a county for high ways.
 By Devine, of Pinal, amending the law with reference to inter- est.
 By Claridge, of Graham, provid- ing for bridge across the Gila river in his county.
 The house finished a reading of the general appropriation bill but decided to send it at once to the committee on engrossed bills. Nearly all the amendments by the appropriation committee to be amended by the committee of the whole were adopted and in some instances reductions even greater than those proposed by the appro- priations committee were made. The bill was cut down about $500,- 900. The most sweeping cut was made in the appropriation for the state, which was reduced from $125,000, as recommended by the committee of the whole, to $5,000.
 The house adopted a resolution of condolence in the matter of the death of Governor de Baca of New Mexico.

copper deliverable through the third is possible that there may be some ac- tivity in March, as there are a few producers that have not sold their en- tire product for second quarter deliv- who must make purchases. What will be paid for this earlier copper remains to be seen. At the present time cleo trolytic for second quarter is reported to be offered as about 34 cents, al though some companies are asking 34 1-2 cents There is now every prob ability that production for the last half of this year will be sold eventually at prices averaging as high as 30 cents a pound.

 3O0,OOO,0OO pounds annually.
 The, wonderful price advance of the cast two years has demonstrated the fact that there is an element of elasti- city in copper production not previous ly known to exist. It opens the way to the solution of problems which were thought unsolvable, for it shows that abnormal requirements can be supplied provided consumers are willing to pay high enough prices. This makes it clear that in the event of a~general- campaign to electrify rail roads the copper could be supplied, in peace times with plenty of labor avail able, at somewhere between, 25 and 30 cents a pound It also makes it clear that production will decrease very 1 rapidly with declining prices for the

The Forthcoming history of Bates
county ought to appeal to the people
of Bates county. 1t has now been
IS years since the old Cass-Batcs
county history was written.
1t is my ambition to write his
tory OF Bates County and to record
indelibly its wealth OF historical an
mails. In undertaking this important
task. fully appreciate its serious
ness and responsibility.
The men and women, whose faith,
courage, foresight and industry have
made Bates County what it is today,
are passing away. Therefore, IT
seems but fitting. while we have yet
with us some OF these pioneers, or
their descendants, that we secure
from them and preserve the thrilling
and romantic story Of their adven-
lures, struggles and achievements in
the early days when their hearts beat
young and their enthusiasm knew not
the limitations imposed by Father
Time" Then, too. there are many
among us whose ancestry blazed the
pathway to civilization on other Dor
ders. and these with the younger gen
Grafton of Bates County are mould
ing the sentiment and shaping the
destiny OF this splendid County. A
record OF what the newcomer is do
ing and thinking therefore becomes
part of the interesting story we are
seeking to tell.
In the preparation OF this history,
| appeal to the broad-minded and
generous citizens OF Bates County
for their assistance and sympathetic
CO. opcration. that this work may
adequately record story worthy of
being handed down to future gen
erationS for their inspiration and
guidance in building up the rich and
broad foundation laid by their faith
ers. And, in return. | pledge my
very best thought and endeavor -
the end that this history may Dc
worthy OF a place On the bookshclves
OF every representative Bates coun-
ty home.
The publishers OF the recent His
tory OF CaSs county. edited by Judge
Allen Glenn. will publish this history
of Bates. and their work in other
counties in Missouri is a guarantee
that the mechanical work will De
satisfactorily done. Further all
nouncements from time to time, as
the work progresses. will appear in
the newspapers of the county: and
we hope to have the active co-opera-
ton of all the people in order that
every scrap of real history may find
it's proper place in this work.
