person at once and to know just what he or
she is most capable of doing, for it frequently
happens that person is not able at first, to
find a position In their particular line of work,
but as opportunity arises the transfer is made.
Some, fortunately, remain a long time in their
positions and have no need to make change,
but the opportunity is theirs, should they de-
sire it.
The expenses of this department are met by
each coworker paying an annual fee OF 80
cents, or about one cent week week s pay
and the trouble Of inquiring at each institution
is often saved, positions being found as soon
as they are required Some have forgotten
or neglected, to pay their fee for the past year.
1t will save time and expense if these will
hand the amount in at their office, or send
direct to this office.
We shall be glad to hear from any Zion per
son who would like to come and live in Zion
City, and would add that it is the privilege
and duty Of everyone who understands the
principles, practices and purposes Of Zion to
lose no time in getting here.
Zion City is not man made project. 1t is the
distinct working out Of God s plan for these last
times, and to neglect to cooperate in this work
is to do SO at your own loss, no matter what
your apparent difficulties or sacrifices may be
to get here Jehovah hath founded Zion and
in her shall the afflicted Of His people find re-
fuge." 1t is the latter day ark and you had
better get in while there is opportunity.

God, | think, How beautiful; thousands of
boys in the world never have thought of
God; their only thought is the moving picture
show or the cigaret, and they learn to pro-
fame Gods Holy Name from their infancy.
May God keep and shield our boys and our
young people. May God watch over the par
ents. Let every one be lin the secret place Of
the Most High. No one could grieve more
than | that single one should be snatched
away.
Let us pray that God will put His arms of
protection around the sick ones and raise them
up. May they draw very close to God in or
der that victory may come as we pray. May
we all draw into a sacred nearness with God.
"There are many broken hearts in the world
this afternoon. There is mourning and sad
ness and signing. May we be fully conse-
Grated, and may we be in place where we
may claim Divine protection. May we take
the Ninety-frst Psalm and commit it to men,
DRY and hide it away in our hearts and claim
Gods precious promises and His protecting
care"

Would you like to have fresh, juicy pears
to eat in the dead Of winter the same as when
picked off the tree? Deacon Detienne, who
held the position of fruit purchasing agent for
both the Fresh Food Supply and the General
Stores in the early days Of Zion City, says that
if you want to keep your pears, especially the
varieties, for winter eating pick them careful
ly by hand from the tree when green but fully
developed wrap them in tissue paper Cor some
other soft paper) and pack them away in
box or barrel ina dark, cool, dry place. Of
course, the earlier varieties will not keep so
long, but the late ones will keep almost like
winter apples. The pears must be looked
over occasionally, as they will gradually ripen
and soften in the paper. When thoroughly
ripe, if one has more than can be eaten with
out cooking, they may be made into excellent
jam, butter, etc., especially when mixed with
apples half and half.

Mote: The following recipes for the use
of Karo Corn Syrup as substitute for sugar
are furnished The Theocrat by Mrs. Isaac
Kahn who lives on Sheridan Road, north OF
Zion City, and who speaks from practical eX-
perience. Mrs. Kahn states that she not only
considers Karo Syrup equal to sugar when
used in the following formulas, but she pre-.
fers it. A considerable number of our own
people also have been very successful in the
use Of Karo Syrup, and it seems the general
opinion of all these that they prefer it to
sugar for many purposes, and that it gives a
more delicious favoring)

This syrup may be used for either cold-pack

Dark Karo Corn Syrup is an excellent substi
tute for sugar in sweet pickles, corn relish and
chill sauce, used in proportion Of one part
syrup to one part sugar.
g. Sweetening Drinks of Fruit Juices Such
Juice
Sugar, when used in these drinks, never
thoroughly dissolves; therefore, part of. its
sweetening qualities are wasted, whereas the
light KarO, being IN a syrup form, dissolves
readily and sweetens with no waste.

NEED MACHINERY
IN OLD MEXICO

While Mexico in way is still in
the throes of revolution a large part
OF the mining sections of the southern
states are free from trouble and the
investors in mining property are now
trying to secure the necessary ma
chlnery to either replace or to fresh
ly install properties. Even the
northern states of our sister republic
are in need of machinery to replace
that destroyed during the years of
revolution. The amount runs up in
the millions and Colorado and Califor
MA will be called upon soon to fur
nish this machinery.
And in connection with the install
latlon of machinery is it not about
time for Arizona to be looking into the
manufacture of the many articles of
machinery needed throughout this
country, instead of shipping our mine
products to the east and bringing
them back as manufactured articles.
We are in better shape to manufac-
ture copper, brass, zinc and lead, as
we'll as iron products and alloyed ma
terlals than many of the other states,
and the corporation or individual who
Will make the first entrance into the

Public is Deeply Interested

The mining industry whole has been running short
handed for the past six months or a year.
Many small mines have been forced close to shortage
and high cost of labor and material
BY spring and early believed conditions will he
such that of these small again operate and the
larger mines will be in position to take on additional mon
Of course this theory predicted the fact that there will
be continued demand for western copper other metals T.
also illustrates in most forcbe the necessity of main
tanning and encouraging the mining industry and as as nos
sble relieving from hamperng influence of war regulations
ETC. Copper producers have suggested that the
buy the present floating of copper official price and
then leave the business without further attempt to regulate the
prices.
The general public deeply interested prosperity of the
mines they greatest distributors of wealth and
and employers of labor at good wages.
Vscious tax uncaed for regulation can make
or break this industry.

PHOENIX, Dec. 4.-Figures up to

They show a total investment in the
state of $3,165, ,787 in these prime lit

ia for the state for the year is $5,-
274, ,620, so that if Arizona is to make
100 per cent record for the War
Savings Stamps the people of the
state will have to invest $2,1O8, 1893
this month which is admittedly an en-

with full and increasing vigor and
that whenever peace comes it win be

will take fifteen months to bring the

over twelve months after peace is
declared to bring the American army
