If the brewers of the nation carry out their plans for a weeks convention at Atlantic City be- ginning September 28, it may be the last meeting of it's kind ever to be held in this country. May the proceedings of the meeting be of sufficient interest to pay for the time the delegates will lose who attend; but as to bring ing back booze to the country, which is the main object of the convention, the effort will meet with decided failure. Booze as a legitimate product of this coun- try has gone forever. Spokane Chronicle.

$35,000,O00 Is Offered
 for the Premier Mine

RYDER, Alaska, Aug. 22.-It is being circulated in mining cir cles here today that the Guggen- heimers have offered $35, 900, GOO for the Premier Mine. Nothing authentic could be learned of the report. The mine, however, has been showing excellent results as $2O0, 900 worth of ore has been put on the dump in the course of development work and is ready to be shipped over the snow this winter. While operations are continuing at the mine the force is not large as the main efforts at present are concentrated on the wagon road, preparatory to haul ing in the compressor machinery and to ship ore. The Premier Mining company has arranged to make shipments this winter with a snow motor truck such as has been successfully operated in other places. A five million dol lar corporation has been formed to operate the Premier mine. In pioneering the way in the Salmon River section the Premier con- pany is going to great expense and it is understood that the plans for getting the ore out are elab- crate. The wagon road alone is reported to cost approximately $1O0, 900, and considerable money was also spent in construction of the wharf at Hyder over which last winters ore shipments were handled. The Premier mine was formerly called the Bush mine.

 at Gymnasium

 The class gave marching, set ting up drill, singing games, folk and aesthetic dancing, ending with active games. 'The Sleep ing Princess" was given; Beryl Cunningham made a lovely prin- cess with her sparkling crown of jewels and pretty gown. Glen Matheson was all one could ask of a flashing prince, clad in a green costume with flowing cape; the old witch, Gertrude Osborne, in her forbidding-looking costume with peaked hat, gave an excel lent interpretation of the story book witch, hobbling to see the princess, causing her to sleep a hundred years.
 In the game of dodge ball, Margaret Northrop and Margaret Mccormack, captains, showed their executive ability. The game was well played, Margaret Me- Cormack's side winning by two minutes.
 The following were members during the summer:
 Gertrude Carlstrom, Etolin Coulter, Beryl Cunningham, Er- ma Grant, Jean Grant, Glen Matheson, Catherine Matheson, Margaret Mccormack, Margaret Northrop, Gertrude Osborne, Laura Roaming, Theodosia Royal ty, Dell Skelton.

Inconsistent as it may seem, too much
o and too good food Is largely re-
sponsible for this increasing mortality
in America.
Modern cooking is not only an art,
it is a science as well. AS a nation, we
make almost criminal mistakes in
what we eat and what we feed others.
We eat twice as muchh sugar as Euro
peans do. We eat cereals from which
the mineral salts have been largely re-
moved. We eat meat beyond the
body's requirements. Few realize the
Importance of water to the system.
The remedy for errors of diet,
which seem to threaten our very ex-
i~stence, is an informed public opinion.
Men and women both must learn the
vital necessity for the balanced ration.
Modern science has measured for us
every n of the foods we eat, m the

tins to more detailed books giving a

value of the average meal outlined be-
fore her.
The womans responsibility for the
health of her family, whether she does
the cooking herself or oversees the
work of others, cannot be evaded. In
view of the statistics of the defective
health Of little children, in city and
country alike. and h serious de
crease In our national vitality, the
women Of America must practice
cooking as a science, one of the high
