Silver Mining Boom Is
In Progress in Bolivia

san FRANCISCO, Nov. ga great
revival in the silver mining industry is
IN progress IN Bolivia, according to AL
berto Palacioa, Bolivian consul here.
During the war siler mining was re-
placed by tin and tungsten, thousands
OF tons OF which we're sold by Bolivians
to the Allies. The low price of silver
during this period caused many of the
silver mines to be abandoned, but with
the return Of q demand for silver bull
lion and consequent high prices, the
silver industry is taking on something
of is ancient aspect as the leading in.
dustrial activity OF the South Ameri-
can republic, Mr.. Palacioa states.
Figures show the export of the
precious metal from Bolivia is now
about 3ooo0,000 pounds a year, valued
at S2,200,000. The famous Potosi mine,
which has been in continuous operation
Tor almost 400 years and has given up
silver valued at billions of dollars, now
is being worked at fullest capacity. &C.
cording to the consu's advices.

Philippine Rice Shortage
Forces Rationing of Supply

MANILA. Nov. l. - The people of
Manila have been put on rice rations.
1t is estimated that it may be neces-
sary to keep up the ration system un-
til the end of the year, but this will
depend upon the harvest of early rice
and the attitude of the French colonial
government with regard to the ex-
portation Of rice from Saigon and
Haiphong.
BY special arrangement with Paris
ocials, the insular authorities have
been able to obtain an export permit
for 5000 tons of rice from Haiphong.
This rice will be used exclusively for
distribution in the southern islands.
which are farthest from the Philippine
centers Of production.
1t is hoped that the fixing Of min
imum price for rice in the hands Of
the producer. recommended to the nth
Philippine Legislature by Governor
Harrison, will eliminate the speculator
and stimulate the farmer to greater
activity, thus relieving the acute short
age of the cereal in the islands.

vance there being about 50 in three
days. 1t was believed this advance was
due to bull speculative movement in
London, and importers were trihe
dubious as to the stability of the new
levels. Dealers bought heavily the
first day Of the advance and later were
anxious to take profits, SO that on the
lnst day of the advance in London the
New York market declined. Consum-
ers showed comparatively little inter
est, although the fact that at current
exchange rates the tin buyer is prac-
tically getting an English pound for
81 has been an inducement to buyers
Straits tin for future shipment was
quoted around 54.50c to 55c at the close
of the week and spot was offered at
5450c. Banca could be had around
4 cent pound less and 80 per cent
about y cent below Straits. Further
sales Of Chinese No. tin were re-
ported.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3O.-since the
war ended the United States has ex-
ported to Belgium goods valued at
s2S3,4l7 sos, or s57 per capita for~every
inhabitant there, according to a report
to-day of the Department of Commerce.
Imports from Belgium during the
same period were s2,901 ,644. Depart
ment officials said that while the latter
amount seemed small as compared
with exports, it showed remarkable en-
ergy IN the resumption OF a trade that
was completely annihilated by war.

Metals Unsettled
BY C. Conflicting
Market Influences
CopperDeclines Under Slack
Exports and Surplus of
Stocks: Zinc Advances:
Lead and Antimony Firm

Unsettled conditions in industry gen
orally brought about by the uncer-
tainty of fuel supplies, failure to ratify
the peace treaty, erratic fluctuations
in foreign exchange, the steel strike
and the possibility of trouble with
Mexico led to conflicting developments
in the non-fcrrous metal markets last
week. Copper was weakened further,
zinc improved, tin was irregular and
lead and antimony held firm.
According to "Thc Iron Trade and
Metal Market Report" the possibility
Of a greatly decreased or delayed sup
ply of coal is causing manufacturers
to be cautious about accepting orders
for future delivery, and also is tend
ing toward slowncss in contracting for
stocks Of metals.
The copper market dropped to
1880 cents says the report, with
competition keen in a widc-open mar
ket. At less than 10 cents, however,
there has been an increase in interest
market has approached so close to cost
that metal at this price is near bot
tom. The question Of further cur
tailment in production has been con-
sldered by some companies. Stocks OF
copper are large. 1t is estimated they
have increased upward Of 1000, 600
pounds since January /, at which time
they were extremely heavy. 1t had
been expected that foreign require
ments would absorb a large part Of
this copper, but the international
credit situation has prohibited any
large export business. Casting cop

The zinc market, after relapse to
IT'S cents East st. Louis, recovered
10 cents East st. Louis for ship
ment this year, and sales were made
recently of prime Western for ship

slightly above cents. Producers have

which were difficult to fiji. The sta
tistical position of the zinc market
is improving steadily, ard this should
be reflected with the passing of some
of the present difficulties, such as the
steel and coal strikes and the unstable
exchange situation.

they could go out in the woods west of
Moosehcad Lake fifty years ago and

as soon as warm weather arrives small

Maine Halfbreed Made $500

An old Indian tradition asserts that
all bull moose of Eastern and Northern
Maine make journeys to the west shore
of Moosehead Lake at the close of the
year for the purpose Of casting their
antlers.
Charles Anance, a halfbreed, says he
filled two boxcars with discarded moose
antlers some years ago and shipped
them to New York, where cutlery manu-
facturers purchased the lot for knife
handles. He cleared $500 from weeks
work, he says.

on through the years. Today has its
hope for each one of us and fresh
encouragement for every day. 1t is
almost possible to become anything
in the world which is worth while.
Particularly is this true in the realm
of character and of helpfulness. The
fine purpose of Jesus is to help us
"to become" If we are willing to
commit our lives to Him, He will
make us "to become" influential fac
tors in making the world better.
Ill. The Travellers Trail.
A traveller was following trail
through the mountains when sud-
denly it came to an end. What
should he doa In great bewilder-
ment he looked around. On the face
of cliff he saw a painted finger
which pointed forward. He knew
that mark had been made to guide
travellers, and he followed where it
pointed. Before it was out of sight
behind, another rock with red let
tering came into view, and in this
way he was guided until he. reached
his journeys end. Is not this a pic
ture of the manner in which the
way TO Christ has been pointed out
down through the ages? While he
lived men followed him as that trav-
eler followed the trail, and since his
earthly life ended, his disciples have
blazed the pathway which leads to
him and eternal life.
"The Masters plan-and what a
genius of a plan 1t isis this" (Dr.
S. D. Gordon writes in Quiet Talks
on Power), "that the world should
be won, not by the preachers
though we must have these men of
God for teaching and leadership
but by everyone who knows the
story of Jesus telling someone, and
telling not only with his lips earn
estly and tactfully, but telling with
his life. That is the Masters plan
of campaign for this world. And it
makes a great difference to him and
to the world outside whether you
and | are living the story of his love
and power among men or not"

l. Men Who Enlisted.
Our nation has been profoundly
Stirredr in the last three years by
the voluntary enlistment of thou
sands of men in dangerous service
for the sake of humanity. II has
revealed depths of heroism which
were latent and uneXpressed. Now
we are discovering that as these men
return they have had liberal edu-
cation. Travel and danger and dis
cipline have left their mark upon
them. In the main they are better
stronger and more efficient men
than they were before. They show
the results of their contact with q
great cause and service for it.
Two men enlisted with Jesus
Christ one day. They were simple
Galilean fishermen. They had no
special education. They had mol
been travellers in distant lands
They were provincial in their out,
look and ordinary in their living
But after they had been with Jesus
Christ, striking changes were evi.
denE-in their lives. Not only was
their character transformed but
their service was most efficient and
remarkable. They became centers ol
powerful influence by which other
men were caught in the net of 9
noble loyalty TO Jesus Christ. There
in was fulfilled His promise to them
"Come We after me and l will make
you to become fishers of men,
There is no nobler task than to be
able to influence others.

You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really new,
It's knock at yourself when you knock your town
1t isn't the tOwn-its you!
Real towns not made by afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead,
When everyone works and nobody shirks
You can raise a town from the dead.

Your neighbors can make one, too,
Your town will be what you want to
