HOME ECONOMICS IS
SUBJECT OF SPEAKER
At WOMAN'S CLUB

A feature of the week of interest
to the women of the district has been
the Home Economic demonstrations
given by Miss Frances Hancock, un-
der the auspices of the Women's Club
OF Ely at Wilson-Batas furniture
store on Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday. when each day demonstrs-
ton has been witnessed by an inter
ested gathering of women who have
found the time most profitably spent.
Miss Hancock Is State Leader OF
Home Economics and is representa-
tive of the government. which has
recently appropriated $1,000.O00 for
the purpose of enlightening women
on this subject, and these demonstra
tions lend encouragement to the
housewife who is eagerly engaged IL
conserving food for war purposes at
the present time, and many bits OF
valuable information have been
cleaned by those attending these in
teresting talks.
On each occasion recipes for the
dishes demonstrated we're given,
which will prove wonderful help
in meat and sugar substitutes, food
calories, proper balancing of foods,
/ etc.
Miss Haneock does not devote her
entire attention to food. however,
and on Friday afternoons she gave an
interesting discussion on home dress
making, demonstrating different
phases in personality to be studied
by women aiming TO present the most
pleasing appearance with their own
individuality. rather than TO be in
spired by something worn by some
woman of an entirely different type.
In connection with this she enlight-
ened the women as 10 what
colors should be worn by blonds and
brunettes, etc. and the entire time
vas devoted to such subjects as are
bound TO be of infinite value To wom
en-, and the club is to be congratu
lated upon receiving the services of
this versatile young woman who is
imbued with the spirit of service TO
our country and the progress Of
women.
Miss Hancock is leaving today
for Washington where she will at
tend the Hoover Food conference

J. II. Goodman of McGill last week
brought 450 pounds of ore from a
recent strike made in the property
of the Willow Greek Gold Mining
company, which was worth several
dollars a pound In gold. The ore
was shipped to San Francisco by ex-
press, Mr.. Goodman placing value
on the shipment at $2500.
The new strike was made on the
60-foot tunnel level, the pay streak
being four feet in width, about eight
inches of which shows very rich gold
values. worth several dollars per
pound. Assays from the remainder
of the vein give values running from
$500 to $500 per ton.
When Mr.. Goodman left the mines
last week the vein had been drifted
on for distance of seven feet, the
values holding good for that dis.
tance. bat of course the develop
ment was not sufficient to guarantee
permanent values of the vein. Mr.
Goodman is of the opinion. however
that he has at last struck the Sveir
from which the gold values hay,

property, and If this proves to be th'
case, very large and rich mine will
