stories which deal with the general
idea OF thrift. A system is u be

mitee has been appointed to survey
the present school courses with

question OF careful organization and
application OF this work so that
the principle OF thrift may be syste-
maticaliy taught and emphasized
throughout the school system"

initiative near Lovelock at a cost OF

south end OF the 700 foot level in the

ore which is averaging about per
cent. We are mining from the high
grade at the north end OF the 500 level
about 80 to IS tofs per day, which
is now averaging hpp-oxim tely
per cent. This high grade body when
opened up is at the north end OF the
north stope on the 800 foot level.
We have no means of knowing just
yet the proportions the high grade ore
may reach but at present 1t IS from 10
to 20 feet wide and 40 feet III length.

HOW THE FOREST SERVICE
HELPS IN WAR.

The Forest Service of the United
States Department of Agriculture is
mobilizing the country's forest re-
sources for war by helping the War
and Navy Departments and munitions
manufacturers get the kinds and guam
titles OF wood needed for rifles, air
planes. wheels and other speciaities;
finding out what kinds and grades OF
woods are suitable for vtartimes spec
ial requirements: training inspectors
OF wood materials: improving timber
specifications: and investigating and
testing materials. processes, and prod
ucts used in manufacture of war sup
plies derived in whole or i'll part from
wood. 1t is also stimulating the pro-
duction OF meat, wool, and hides on
National Forest Ranges; cooperating
with stockmen to lower losses from
poisonous plants; aiding tie Fuel Ad-
ministraton to increase fuel SUPPLIES
through use OF wood: and is teaching
the conservation of natural resources.
1t has helped recruit two regiments of
forest engineers for service abroad,
and has contributed more than 375
members TO the colors.

SHORTAGE OF MUNITON
WORKERS.

An imperative call for skilled men
for the great American shell-manu-
featuring and munitions plants has
been made today by Franklin X. Lane,
Chairman of the field division of the
Council OF National Defense The call
is made necessary by the shortage OF
high explosive shells, resulting from
the awful explosions at Perth Amboy,
New Jersey Secretary Lanes tel
egram in full follows;
"A stock of high explosive shells
imperatively needed in France has
been destroyed and the flow OF these
supplies has been retarded, not only
for the present but for many months
TO come, unless immediate relief is
provided. This loss must be made up
at once by putting additional burdens
on all other American munition plants
your State and community cohacils
of defense are urged to put their en-
tire influence behind the employment
service in this emergency. This call
must be met, but there should be
no difficulty in getting these men, The
work is dangerous, but that will not di
vert anyone. 1t is unthinkable that
any man in this country would hold
back from doing work that the wom-
en- of France and England have long
carried on. When this problem is
placed before the Aerican people. pub
lie opinion will be solidly behind the
employment service and the commun-
ity labor boards.
Americas biggest ehen loading
plant is gone. There are other plants,
in operation still others under con-
struction. Work is seriously retarded
by lack OF labor The Ordnance De-
partment states that the immediate
labor shortage is 10000 men, with
even greater numbers nodded for ar
my construction 'puposes.
The Requirements OF Nevada Will
tax your utmost efforts They can
be filled only by getting men from
non-essentiais and replacing them by
women. The duty OF loyal Nevadans
is to meet this emergency, remember
ing that no real American, man or
woman is AFRAID either in the trenches
or at posts OF danger.
