Mining Activities Of
Upper Clear Greek

John J. White, backed by a
strong financial syndicate, has
taken hold of the Breckenridge
group, and started campaign Of
development of the property, All
available information leads to the
conviction that great mine is
being revealed The main drift is
being pushed ahead on streak
of silver-lead ore that is encour-
aging, and gives values of from
$50 to $75 per ton. A stope is
being operated from which a good
weekly production is expected.
L. Teagarden is down from the
Roberts group on Democrat noun
tain, and reports quite favorably
on the outlook. There are a
number of places in this district
where extensive development: in
the next few months may prove
sensational.
Very little information can be
CLEANED from operations at the
Hall tunnel, as work is being
carried on in a quiet, systematic
manner, with view to best possi-
BILE results. 1t is predicted, how
ever. that some surprises in the
way of ore reserves will be sprung
during the coming summer.
Ed Harper has made a new
location on Saxon and Griffith
mountains, and it gives promise of
being the equal of any mine in
the district, which in the early
days of mining had reputation
for its high grade silver values.
There is streak Of a couple of
inches Of lead ore cropping out
for a long distance at the surface.
which, with little development,
may prove q bonanza.
With the prospect of silver going
higher because of the great de-
mand for the white metal, it
behooves those who have silver
mines that have been idle for
years to get them in shape toI
meet the demand there is going

So often it has been said that art is
non-essential. that artists are
dreamers, not workers. But France
and her artists have proved during
this terrible war that the most ar
tistic of nations can possess greatest
hardihood and courage in the face of
the greatest difficulties and dangers.
France as q nation and her artists as
a class have met the great test and
have stood supreme.

Mr.. Cox was not only painter of

He was one who held firmly to ira

Classic Point of View gives emphasis
to the need of maintaining standards
in art. But he was one keenly alive
to- cotemporary movements and was
clear as well as a deep thinker: a
strong benef1cent influence in artistic
matters.
Mr.. Cox had frequently lectured in
Washington under the auspices of the
