GOOD taste.

Good taste is the conscience of the
mind. Lowells definition is compact
of thought and is worth dwelling upon.
Good taste is trait we all agree in
valuing, though its meaning as a rule
is rather vaguely felt; we urge its cul-
tivation and admire its exercise but
the quality itself is generally less
analyzed than desired.--Hartley Alex
ander.

BIG COMPRESSOR

This event marks the beginning of
another stage in the history of the
Divide, as, the compressor. having a
capacity practically three times as
great as the one formerly used, will
permit the management to start de-
velOpment on the greatly enlarged
scale that is planned Workings on
all levels will be extended, sinking of
the shaft will be resumed and driving

started The extension of the second

face OF the thrd-level southeast drift,
particularly the one to the southwest,
and the progress of the fifth-level
.crosscut will become points of inter.

According to A. ]. darcy the
faces Of the second and third levels
southeast drifts still are in ore, the
latter in material assaying $40. When
the rich area was entered PAS feet
from the shaft on the third level the
first southwest CrOsscut showed the
ore to continue for % feet in this
direction and the second Crosscut,
driven 80 feet farther to the south
east, showed the ore to extend south
west for 4O1s feet. with no wall.
The northeast crosscut at the lat
ter point was in ore Of milling grade
for over 80 feet It is owing to the
great width and high average value
of the ore as shown by these cross

300 feet long. according to Mr.. Darcy
The rich area was entered on the
third level 245 feet southeast of the

drift, which is being continued with
three shifts.
On the third level a drift on the

daily consumption of Tonopah is now
$50 gallons a day most Of which

train every evening. The balance
comes from a stable of forty cows
maintained here in Tonopah. The

WARNING TO MOTHERS

Mothers are warned to caution
their children to be careful while

congestion of traffic on almost every

the three weeks mentioned per cent
of the men discharged and who were
not farming when they entered the
army intended to take up farming.
OF the Is per cent of the soldiers
who had been on farms previous to
entering the army, and who did not
intend to return, the reason given
by 1 per cent was that the men were
disabled and therefore unable to do
heavy farm work. At least half of
this number are taking up vocational
courses in agriculture which will fit
them for class of farm work which
does not require hard physical effort
Practically the entire remaining
eight-tenths per cent had been farm
ing with their parents or were ten
ants and considered it too late to
farm this year, as other help had
been secured.
A similar report from the farm
help specialist in charge of the work
at Camp Gordon, Ca, shows that
during 4 weeks in April 1921 farmers
were discharged from that camp. OF
that number SO were directed to sit
uations on the farms In Georgia,
while 2,342 said they were returning
