so closely housed together,
epidemic diseases are very often
started from just such con-
ditions. Teachers should be
instructed to carefully watch
these conditions, and as a mat
ter of health protection to the
rest Of the pupils, unclean
children should be sent home
until they come back clean and
free from bodily odors.
AS specific recommends
tion appertaining to these
twenty cases of Tracoma re-
ported, l would suggest that the
parents be notified concerning
the disease and of the necessity
of Immediately placing the child
under the treatment of some
physician. During the first two
weeks of such treatment, they
should be requested to keep the
child at home in order to more
quickly get the case under con-
troll and as an extra precaution
against the spread to others.
AS very few of the cases
were in an advanced stage,
believe, two weeks will be suf-
ficient time to relieve any dan
ger of infection to others. AT
the expiration of two weeks
they should be required to furn-
ish a certificate that the are be
ing treated and will continue ac-
tive treatment until pronounced
cured and furnishing a certifi-
cate to that effect from theil
physician.
If these recommendations can
be carried out, | believe, those
afflicted will soon be upon the
road to recovery without hav-
ing endangered the eyes of
those in attendance in school
with them.
For the ends to be gained
such a regulation places the
minimum amount of hardship
upon the parents of those af-
fected while properly protecting
the rest of the scholars who are
of the majority in such great
cases.

Thrift Card.

l OSLllldSCCI w lllldIIl OCIlQCk-
man is in receipt of a large sup
Iply of the new Thrift Saving
Stamps and Cards." by the use
of which people of limited means
who desire to assist the govern
ment financially from their saw
ings are given a method for do
ing so. The stamps are in de
nominations of 25 cents and SIS,
and there are two cards The
lower denomination of stamps
and the smaller card go to-
gether. Upon the face of the
card is printed sixteen squares,
upon each of which may be
fastened one of the twenty-five
sent stamps. And as the in
dividual can spare a quarter he
buys a stamp and sticks it upon
one of the spaces. When the
sixteen spaces are filled he takes
the card to the post office and
exchanges it for a SIS stamp,
turning in the card and a few
cents, according to the month of
the exchange. The SIS stamp
lis redeemable in January 1st,
1928. So a savings investment
|of $4.12 to $4.23, according to
the month, returns two years
hence the sum of SIS.
The 25 cent stamp is about
300 larger than an ordinary
postage stamp. The SIS stamp
is 2x2 1-2 inches. With the
first one of those acquired there
|goes also a ''War Saving Ger
|tificate", upon which there is
space to stick six of the SIS
stamps, and upon presentation
lat any money order office in the
United States or at the United
States Treasury, with the six
stamps affixed, on January 1st,
1923, it will be redeemed by pay
|ment of $50. The six SIS stamps
cost $24, with the addition of
THE small amounts mentioned
for the months in which are
made the exchanges of the 81
card. In January it is 12c, and
|one cent is added each month
until December 1918, when it
will be 23c. Taken to
|gether the exchange of the 81
cards and the additional pay
ments at the time the 81 cards
are exchanged for S5 stamps
the outlay will be about $25. If
during the year 1918 one has af-
fixed six SIS stamps his cer-
tificate is redeemable on the
first of January, 1928 for $50,
at which time he gets SIS for the
use of his $25 paid in during the
year 1913, which is savings in
terest on the sum invested. Of
course if there are less than
six of the $5 stamps upon a card
the redemption is porportinal to
the number. The scheme and |
system are contrived admirably
to assist people in saving
and without doubt it
will bring into the u. s.
Treasury large sums of money.

THE AUSTERLITZ.. MINES
Sold by Doctor A. HI. Noon and
Sons to Mr.. j. w. Bible, of
Silver City, New Mexico
"a noted and Success
full Operator.

Yesterday The Oasis was in
formed upon reliable authority
that a deal had been closed by
Doctor A. H. Noon and sons fol
the sale of the Austerlitz mine
in the Orc Blanco district, out
in the extreme western part of
Santa Cruz County, the pur-
chaser being Mr.. J. w. Bible,
of Silver City, New Mexico, a
gentleman known far and wide
as a successful mining operator,
who has engineered some of the
largest and heaviest mining
deals made in the Southwest.
Mr.. Bible consolidated the
properties now embraced in the
holdings of the Chino Copper
Company, in Grant County, New
Mexico, developing the prop
critics and putting them on the
road to the great success they
have attained. The advent of
the gentleman into the mining
field of Santa Cruz County is
an accession to the mining and
business interests of the county
that will prove a great factor
in the great development that
the county has set out upon.
Mr.. Bible departed for his
home yesterday afternoon, but
will return shortly to the county
and begin at once an extensive
plan of development at the
Austerlitz. He has acquired
the property after most
thorough and rigid examina-
ton, and he will back his judg-
ment by carrying out extensive
and elaborate development.
A Real Producer.
The Austerlitz has been
known long as a real producer,
and it's record goes back to
1865, when it was located by a
California, Clinton johnson, who
was killed by Apaches a couple
of years later. After the death
of Thompson the property
passed into the hands of a New
Yorker named Townsend, who
accomplished considerable devel-
opment. In 1877 Doctor Noon
located in the Orc Blanco
country, and some years later
he acquired the property.
Development has been by
tunnels principally, although
a shaft 130 feet deep was sunk
in the gulch below and a cross
cut from the bottom of
the shaft cuts below them. The
pitch of the vein is such that
the shaft will cut it at a depth
of 100 feet lower than the pre-
sent bottom of the shaft.
The vein traverses a long
ridge, which is cut clear through
by one tunnel 461 feet long.
The ores carry gold and silver,
out with depth copper is coming
in. While the region has been
productive of gold and silver,
biologists aver that the forma-
ion is conducive to copper, and
the prediction is made that
lepth will prove the entire re-
yion a great copper producer.
In 1897 the mine was sampled |
~ F. R. Schemerhorn. a noted
mining engineer. He reported
Essays running from $1.60, gold,
md $1.29 silver, to $35.2s gold,
nd $3.50 silver.
Selected ores shipped to
melter ran $158 per ton in
old and silver. Other lots sont

AUTO STARTER
INVENTED BY
LOCAL MAN
Experts Declare Local In
vention will Revolutionize
Starter Industry.

An automatic starter for auto
mobiles, which it is expected can be
installed on cars Of all makes for less
than $25, has been invented by d. r.
Presley, 316 International avenue, a
mechanic employed by the Moore
Automobile company Of this city.
Patent has been applied for, and a
company. composed Of D: Mckenzie.
sr.. and Presley. with offices at 1877
South Third street, has been organiz-
ed to market the invention.
Gives Three Revolutions.
The starter is expected to revolu-
try. because Of Its simple and prac-
teal construction, and the low cost
at which 1t can be produced. The
best starter on the market at the
present time will turn an engine half
a revolution, while the invention of
the local man will give the engine
three complete turns. or IL compress
stons. thereby making 1t almost I'M
possible for the engine to ''buck."
Cold weather, also, will not affect the
starter.
The invention is in the form Of a
worm gear. installed on the end Of
the shaft in the front Of the radia-
tor. At the end of the worm gear, a
loose cover containing spring and a
pulley is attached. Through this, a
cable. running back under the ma
chine and attached to a lever by the
drivers seat, is controlled.
Operated From Seat.
When the lever is operated by the
driver in the seat, the gear is turn
ed. which in turn revolves the drive
wheel Of the engine. According to
automobile experts. the invention is
one of the most important in the
automobile world Of recent date.
Offers already have been received
by the company for the patent rights
but none has been accepted. 1t is as
