Dear Helen:
I have been reading the letters
from the girls and thought they were
very Interesting. I am a girl of II
years. I am going to the first year
in High and am taking the CONNER
cial course. I think it would be a very
good idea in having a Y. w. C. A. and
its about time someone thought about
it. The Y. w. C. A. would be a good
way to get our girls acquainted with
each other and also keep so many
girls OF the streets. 1t would be won
derful II there could be a swimming
pool and gym where the girls
could have lots of fun and at the same
time get the exercise they need.

Doris you must not think of
young men until you have finished
college. You know I approve OF
Frank but there is plenty of time.
Wait until after graduation"
Doris left her father for she heard
familiar footsteps in the hall.
Frank Rupert was the son of Judge
Rupert their neighbor and Mr. Rog-
ers' best friend.
Now he stood before her as she en-
tered the hall brushing the snow from
his coat.
Doris told her brief bit of trouble
and was consoled by a long refresh
ing sleigh ride and the assurance,
that everything would be alright.
So after the Christmas vacation
was over Doris Rogers went back to
college. The months few by quickly
and graduation day came. After the
exercises Doris Joined her father on
the campus with her other friends.
But soon some one else stood by her
side, too, and Doris was whispering
in her fathers ear.
Were engaged now, dad dear. 1t
is after graduation now"
Dad didn't get sngry. He smiled
and gripped Franks hand, Doris al
ways surprised him in everything
anyway.

MOVIES WILL SHOW SAL
VAGED MEN TRAINING

How a man blind in both eyes
and minus both hands was trained
to become an expert drug sales
man, was but one of the feats per-
formed under the direction of the
Federal Board for Vocational
Education to be shown in the
moving pictures shortly.
Henry Ford is going to make
film of the work OF the Board
His camera men will be sent into
the training school to take pic
lures of the men in training, The
pictures will show men in the re-
ceiving stations, on the farms, in
the factories, schools and colleges.
The film will be complete in
about six weeks. 1t will be shown
in every town in the United
States where there is a picture
house. 1t is estimated that the
picture will reach sixteen million
people each week,
Parents OF boys who gazed on
what they believed to be hope
less wrecks when those boys re-
turned home after whipping the
Hun have a great surprise in
store for them. When the Ford
educational films begin to show
how these supposed same wrecks
are being resurrected and restor-
ed to usefulness, then and then
only will the true work of the
Federal board be understood.
The film will be completed and
distributed among the many
picture houses during the holi-
days. Friends and relatives of the
boys will be able to see young
men they know in actual training.

PROGRESS OF THE
WALKER LAKE ROAD

l.. B. Spencer, surveyor tor
Mineral county, dealing with the
Walker Lake scenic road, says
the engineering forces engaged
on that project have concluded a
compromise by which they will
accept the survey for a low line
boulevard instead of the high line
road as first planned by a crew
sent out by the state highway de-
partment. Mineral county was
the first to suggest the feasibility
of road built as close to the wa
ter's edge as justified by the high
est water mark of the lake.
Federal engineers who were
sent in to check up the various
recommendations gave their un-
qualified approval to the low line
which would effect a great saw
ing on construction and it is re-
ported that the high way board
has decided to advertise for bids
so that work may be prosecuted
during the winter.

LET THERE BE LIGHT

The hearing of the application
of the Nevada California Power
Company before the public SER
vice commission for permission to
abandon its power lines to Fair
view, Rawhide and other points
was begun in Carson Thursday.
The application for abandon
ment is being protested by Dis
trict Attorney White of Mineral
county, and Engineer Beckett
who are gathering data in this
city for the hearing.
1t is contended that the new
Simon district offers an opening
Tor power service, while the peo-
pie OF Hawthorne and other set
Elements along the line are de-
manding a continuance of serv-
ice.
While it is possible that GER
tain sections of the power line
will be abandoned, owing to the
closing of several mining camps
which have been supplied, the
company, it is understood, will
through understanding, allow the
line to Hawthorne to continue.
1t is to establish a permanent
order in the relation to service
that the Mineral officials are
fighting for the convenience. AS
the source OF power comes from
the California side of the noun
itains, the commission is confront
ed with a delicate question when
permanent orders are to issue.
Once the lines are out OF Nevada
the power of control lapses and
all OF the Juice" will undoubtedly
go toward Stockton and other
California points.
Governor Boyle has appointed
Mrs. Hoenstine treasurer of
Humboldt county to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of her
husband, F. G. Hoenstine.

WAGE AGREEMENT
REACHED AT TONOPAH

The Tonopah and Divide
Miners and Millmen's Union has
signed years contract with the
Mine Operators Association and
it calls for fifty per cent in
crease over the present daily
wages. Under the new scale the
lowest wage paid in the camp is
$3.50 a day, says the Gazette.
The contract signed by the work
ers and the operators committee
provides that a fifty cent increase
be granted, retroactive to Oct
ober 1, with the understanding
that a commissary shall be estab-
lished within sixty days by the
operators.
AT the end OF sixty days time
the federal mediator will return
to Tonopah and if he finds that
the actual cost of living has been
reduced fifty cents a day through
the establishment of a commiss-
sary and boarding house, he will
then abolish the fifty-cent in
crease. If the cost of living has
not been reduced fifty cents a

CANDELARIA COMPANY
NOW IN CASH AND ORE

Between S550,000 and 100000
cash has been provided for the
treasury OF the Candelaria Mines
company by the recent sale OF
treasury stock at par 81. \
force OF men will be employed on
two main tunnels, one for the en-
tire properties at Candelaria, be-
ing prolongation either OF the
main tunnel OF the old Northern
Belle mine on eleventh level, or
prolongation OF tunnel begun
several years ago on the Blanche
group and i'll the 800 feet level,
aiming to develop the Lucky
Hill veins a few hundred feet
further in. The Northern Belle
tunnel 'would' develop all these
mines. Both these tunnels are
at railroad grade. The Lucky
Hills and Mount Diablo mines
are in the hills half mile further
south. A new tunnel on the
Lucky Hill about 100 feet below
the present 240 level tunnel has
also been begun.
Winter quarters are being COM
pleted for the men. The funds
on hand are believed sufficient
to provide for the fullest develop
ment of the property and the
erection of a mill in 1920, of ton
mage to make the Candelaria the
foremost silver mine in the Unit
ed States in point of actual pro-
duction, as it is already foremost
in point of demonstrated ore re-
serves.
1t is generally considered prob
able that the Candelaria will ship
5OOtons or more per day of smelt-
ing grade, to the snelters in ad-
vance OF mill construction. In
that event the company would
not have to await until mill COM
pletion to rank as the foremost
silver producing mine in the Unit
ed States. The petition of the
Mason Valley smelter, the near
est smelter to the Candelaria-
about &c miles distant-to the
Nevada State Railroad Commits
sion for reduction in freight
rates on custom ores to the smell
ter over the Southern Pacific and
Western Pacific railroads is be-
lleved In some quarters to have di-
rect bearing on the question OF
shipping large tonnages OF low
grade smelling grade silver ores
from the Candelaria mines, in
advance of Candelaria mill con-
struction, and if satisfactory
rate can be obtained.

Bis Mining Suit IN
Mineral County Court

Al action to quiet title to what
is 6, lerally known as the North
ern Light mine, situated about
20 lies southeast of Yerington,
in ountain View mining dis
trict in Mineral county, is being
triet this week in Hawthorne be-
fore Judge ]. Emmett Walsh.
1t seems that the ground had
been. worked several years ago
by the Northern Light Company
and then abandoned by them.
On December 2S, 1915, +. w.
Montague, one of the plaintiffs in
the present acton, located five
claims, covering the old North
ern Light ground Montague
testified that he located the claims
and built the monuments on Dec
ember %, 1915, and that in Janu-
airy 1910, he sent men on the
ground to do the necessary devel-
opment work. He also testified
that these men were prevented
from doing the work by d. W.
Nc kenzie, a defendant in the ac-
ton.
The contention OF the defend
ants, ID. w. Mckenzie and others,
is that they secured title to the
ground from X. v Taylor and
that the ground was not open for
location, That the mine was
worked and ore shipped all of the
year 1915.
The examination OF witnesses
was finished Thursday, and on
request of the attorneys the argu-
ments will be made before Judge
Walsh i'll Reno on January 5, 1920
Montague was on the witness
stand all day Monady. He was
followed by l.. II, Bartholomew,
also a plaintiff in the case.
The plaintiffs are represented
by the law flrm OF Percy x Smith
and Senator H. V. Morehouse of
Reno, while Sam Belford and
George S. Green, prominent law
yers of Reno, and H. Pilkinoton.
OF f.SY erington are looking after
the interests of d. w. McKen-
zie.
Among the witnesses called
to Hawthorne to testify are the
following: T w. Mollart, Ross
Thompson, w. A. Hunter, A. l..
Daniels, O. H. Some, c S. Nor
gan, j. S. Adams, r. V. Taylor,
E. w. Montague, L. H. Bartho-
lemeu, |. Strosnider and Jas
Scanlan.
The property in controversy is
now being worked under lease
and bond by the Mason Valley
Mines company and is a steady
producer OF high grade copper
ore.

CARS TO RACE
FOR $1,000 BET

An automobile race which is
attracting more than the usual
interest is to be run in Nina next
week between an Essex and a
Chevrolet. A bet OF 81 900 is up
on the result and it is rumored
that several thousand more will
be up before the race is run.
There are two rival garages at
Nina, the Palace and the Nina
Garage. The Palace handles the
Essex and the Nina the Chevro-
let. Manager Fletcher o fthe Pal
ace and Jack Clark of the Nina
have been boasting the prowess
of their cars, until one OF them
offered to bet 81 900 that his car
was the better in a race. The
terms provide for stock cars with
windshields and tops removed
and the race course will be four
teen miles long, over desert and
mountain, with the start and fin
ish in Nina. Five miles is over
hard climbing and the rest over
a desert flat where sixty miles
an hour can easily be attained.
f. ID. Mack, of the Mack Gar
age has been sent for to drive the
Essex car, and as soon as he re-
turns from the eastern part OF
the state the race will be rum

Big Deal in the
Simon District

Another big deal III Simoa dis
trict properties has just been COM
pleted, which will mean a greatly
increased activity in mining cir
cles when plans now being formu-
lated are put into operation.
Mention was made about a
month ago of the acquisition OF
the Norman Silver Mining COM
pany by P. Simon of the Simon
Silver Lead company, and now
IN order to round out the hold
lngs, and to operate both proper
ties more economically, the ST.
mon Pagan Mines company and
the Norman Silver Mining Com
pany have been consolidated I'm
der the title Of the Pagan Con-
solidated Silver Mines company
with a combined capital stock of
5000, ,000shares.
The officers of the new COM
pany are: President, P. A. Simon, !,
vice-president, f. S. Chafey; sec
retary and treasurer, B. w. Zac-
hau; board of directors. P. A.
Simon, E. S. Chafey, B. w. Zac-
hau, E. S. Milford and Frank
M. Manson.
These properties are located
in the Simon district short dis
tance from the Simon Silver Lead
mine, and consist of approximate
ly of six claims each, having a
common endline, making the long
axis OF the combined properties
little over mile long in near
y north and south direction. Ex-
tensive development work has
been done on both the Pagan and
the Norman, the Pagan having
been shipper OF ore this sea-
son, and with the combined re-
sources of the two properties it
is confidently predicted that big
mine will be developed here.
]. 0. Greenan, who has been
associated with both companies,
as well as with the Simon Silver
Lead company has been placed in
charge of the Pagan Consolidated
as superintendent, and is prepar-
ing an aggressive campaign of de-
velopment.
The Pagan has been inspected
during the past few months by
such well known mining men as
K. w Royer, of Los Angeles;
DR.. Walter Harvey Reed, the emf
nent geologist; c. E. Van Bar
nevelde, director of the u. S.
Bureau of Mines experiment sta
ton at Tuscon; Charles E. Knox,
w. c. Loring and ]. c. Weir of
New York, all of whom are
unanimous in predicting a great
future for the property.
The directors of the two COM
panies, at meeting held last
week in Tonopah, agreed on the
details of the consolidation, and
notices have been issued for the
stockholders meeting to be held
on November Is, 1919, for the
purpose of ratifying the action OF
the directors. No opposition to
this action is expected, as the adj
vantages to both companies are
very obvious.
In this connection, new strike
of very high grade ore is reported
in the west drift of the Pagan
workings, samples OF which are
freely spotted with native silver.
