OLD GOLD AND
 SILVER COINED BY MINT AT COST TO OWNER

The Office of the Director of the Mint authorizes the following:
 To persons who have old gold or silver which they wish to convert into cash for war or other purposes, the Government offers an opportunity. Old gold and silver in quantities approxi- mating $100 in value may be sent to the United States assay office in New York, or to any one of the Government assay offices in Philadelphia, Denver, CT San Francisco. The senders will receive in return check on the Unit ed States Treasury for the value of the material less the charges for fit ting such materials for coinage pur- poses. These charges are nominal. No institution under the Government in Washington receives this material, as none has facilities for depositing or treating it.
 To societies raising funds for war re- lief work, the suggestion is made tha, individual collections of old gold and silver be gathered together in some central depository and when the nee essary amount has been obtained that it be sent to the assay office in the one of the four cities mentioned which Is most conveniently situated for trans portatiOn.

TORONTO, July 9-Canda is to have another new and important in- dustry to be located at Quebec City The line to be manufactured is auto matic revolvers for the United States army. Originally the business was or fered to the Russell Motor Car Com pany in Toronto, but as the order was so extensive and the latter com pany so busily employed on other war work, it was ultimately found neces- sary to organize a new company for the purpose. In this new company, however, Russell interests are large ly represented. The company will be known as the North American Arms Co, Ltd, and will be capitalized at $2,OO0,O0O.

NEW RECORD MADE BY
 FISHING BOAT ATLI

The Prince Rupert News of July 9th, reports the following:
 What will possibly be held up as an awful example of profiteering by some of those people who do not know everything, is the result of the last trip of the fishing boat Atli of Prince Rupert, belonging to the G. w. Kicker son Go. The "Atl" was out for week and brought in 32,OOO pounds of halibut, and the price received was Ia fraction under 14c. She carried crew of four men, and their share for their weeks labors amounted to $82S apiece. So far as can be learned, the Atli on this trip has created a record in value received for weeks fishing.
 There are few people who know what halibut fishing really means who would grude to the fishermen these returns. On the occasion of the pre- vicus record the figures were held up all over Canada as an example of war profits, as if such things happened every day. The trips taken when the weather was bad, and the catches were light, when the fishermen made money are conveniently forgotten Kaaer should these fortunate fisher men be congratulated on their unus- ual luck.
