NEW IMPROVEMENTS
SEEN IN CAMP

A great many improvements are 20
be noted throughout the camp and IT
looks as. though things were picking
up rapidly. The Ray Consolidated
Copper Company is building an addi-
ton on their compressor in No. yard
putting new building over the pumps
at No. 2, and starting the work Of
concreting the No. 2 mine incline
hoist as well as many other improve
ments of minor nature.
A new dormitory for teachers which
will be up-todate in every respect, is
soon to be started near the school
building with large rooms, parlor
kitchen and dining room in the base
mcnt.
A new sidewalk is being put in on
Ray street from Miller Brothers store
to the office OF John R. O'Donnell.
This is being made of dark-colored
cement, as it has been found by eX-
perience that the ordinary light oe-
ment reflects the glare of the sun IN
such a way as to be very annoying
if not actually harmful to the eyes.

We have heard several complaints
Of late about the amount of noise that
some of the boys are making in their
play up ON Boyd Heights. We have
even been approached on the subject
and asked if we would bring this mat
ter to the attention of parents through
the medium of The Copper Camp.
Now we don't think it is necessary
to take this up with the parents; they
haven't been making any noise, and if
they have, we would rather not say
anything about it. We are going TO
take it up with the boys themselves;
we are going to ask the boys, first:
on behalf of those men whose duties
demand that they sleep, or try 10
sleep. during the day; second: on
behalf of the sick, and third on be
half of the. little babies, that they try
to be less hoisy in their play.
The boys must sooner or later learn
that lesson of self-sacrifice necessary
in considering the rights OF otnerS,
if they are to be successful men later
n life They must remember that
some day they, too, may work IN
mines and mills, and that they, too.
will need at times to sleep in the
daytime. We know that none of them
ever expect to be miners. They are
to be Indian fighters, firemen, police
men or perhaps a pirate and sail the
seven seas: but dreams do not always
come true. We had ours, too, but no.
we never rode a coal black steed over
western plains with our trusty rifle
by our side, or shouted orders from

MISS MERLE NC AhENY
JOINS Her SISTER AT
|. A. FOR THE SUMMER

Miss Merle G. McAneny, one of the
most popular of~Ray's younger SET
left Saturday for the coast to join
her sister, Miss Mildred, who left a
short time ago. Miss McAneny went
to Glendale first; she plans to remain
there for short time. Mr.. and Mrs.
o. L. Hubbard, who have bungalow
at Lajolla, have extended an invita-
tion to the Misses McAneny to visit
them, and it is considered likely that
the invitation will be accepted.
While no definite arrangements
may be said to have been completed
it is planned by the young ladies to
remain at the coast until the ap-
proach of cool weather.
Their presence is missed by the
Ray Hiking club and their numerous
friends in this locality. All join in
wishing them thoroughly enjoyable
vacation.

Der of accepted suggestions made by

glance.
These awards are to be made By a
leading firm of eastern jewelers. who
specialize in that field. We are as.
sured that the awards will be of the
highest standard and will possess an
intrinsic value greater than most other
awards of this type.
Every new or novel suggestion of
merit will be carefully considered by
the company; if it proves feasible and
practical, the company will confer the
award on the maker Such sugges-
tions, to receive consideration, should
be written in detail and sent to the
superintendent of mines. While tnei
should be brief, it must be Under
stood that every meaning should be
made clear, so that no misunderstand-
ing may result. Each suggestion
should be signed
We are glad to learn of this state
Of affairs; there should be a great
feeling of satisfaction come over a
man when he sees his own sugges
tions go into practice, and still
greater feeling if he knows that his
suggestion has perhaps saved hui
man life.
Progressive executives controlling
the destinies of Luge organizations
find that the personal contact between
capital and labor results in immeas-
urably increased mutual effectiveness
A bond of strong friendship is con-
nected by the link of endeavor.
Just when the new type of awards
will be ready we are unable to say at
this writing, but announcement of the
date will be made in an early issue
of Copper Camp.

Schiff says, MAC, for heavens sake,
why don't you hit the ball and fill up
this weeks issue of the paper?" and
here I've been sitting in this doggone
chair for two hours with the prespi-
ration pouring off of me and can't
think of a single thing to write. When
l try to write something funny | get
as serious as a clam. Then l try
the sob stuff and l can't shed tear
(if drops of sweat were tears I'd be
a Weeping Willie). The only thing
the women in Ray do is to go to the
coast for their vacations and all the
men do is work and get pinched for
bootlegging. Now, there is nothing
interesting in going to the coast tcr
us as has to stay at home, and work
is nothing new, and Schiff won't let
me put in the booze stuff, so you see
where I'm heading in, don't you? MY
lob is a thankless job. Nobody loves
me. When l write up swell article

playing, somebody crabs the act, and

RAY CON WILL GIVE NEW
FORM OF AWARDS FOR
ACCEPTABLE SUGGESTIONS
Men Who Submit Practical Safety and Efficiency sugges
tions Will Receive Then.-Novel Form of Award Will
Indicate Number Of Suggestions Accepted

For several years the Ray ConsoIi.
dated Copper Company has offered
certain awards and prizes for practi-
cal safety and efficiency suggestions
which were made by men in its EN-
ploy.
Such action is in line with those
accepted by the best modern organ
ization managers, who welcome and
appreciate the interest displayed by
those in their employ
The man ON the job is sometimes
in the best position to know how he
can save time, materials and labor,
and he may often know of lurking
danger that may have escaped the
eyes of those higher up" The care
full observance and the reporting cf
such matters are duties man owes
to himself, to his family, to his fellow
workman, and to his country. Every
man working in the mines or mills
should not only promptly report pos
sible sources of inefficiency and
knowledge of dangerous conditions,
hut he should also be constantly on
the alert for them During the last
few months the number of such re-
ports or suggestions which are report
ed to the company have fallen off to
a considerable extent.
1t will interest Rayites to learn that

pany has caused to be designed new
awards for safety and efficiency sug-
gestions The exact nature of these
awards is not yet known, as the COM
