of welding the big stick" on the
peace conferences has resulted IN
formation Of little five" bloc which
will seek to swing little stick
The United States, Great Britain.
France, Italy and Japan constitute
the big five. The little five has
been organized by Belgium, Serbia,
Greece, Poland and China.
These rival" factions grew out Of
the fight by the smaller nations for
Committees which will work out the
details of the peace settlement The
lines thus drawn will be wiped out.
LII is believed, when the question of
representation is amicabiy adjusted.
Work toward this end is progressing
rapidly.
Although It would be impossible
for the nineteen smaller nations to
have one representative each among
the twenty which can be chosen for
committee, the final list of mem
berships on the committee so far
formed leaves eight small nations
entirely unrepresented. Fourteen
members, twenty chosen by small
nations go to the little five. Belgium

WORDS
FROM MASONIC

Neil Anderson, who has been
hauling material into Masonic for
several mining companies, as well
as hauling ore from the mines to
the reduction works at Hazen, re-
ports that the recent strike at
Masonic has caused considerable
excitement in that section says
the Carson News. The find was
made by Kibble and Cook, who
have been operating a lease. The
ore carries high values and steady
shipments have been made dur
ing the past several weeks Ore
has been sacked i'll the mine with
out sorting and while no pubic
announcement has been made as
to rthe richness Of the ore, it is re-
ported that it averages better
than $3.50 per ton.
Since Kibble and Cook uncov-
cred the new body of ore, H. c.
Decker, operating property some
distance from the lease cut the
same ore body. After this sec
ond find had been made, Kibble
and Cook traced the ledge for a
mile and a half and located sew
eral claims of their own and de-
velopment work is now under
way.
Mr. Anderson states that it is
the opinion of those who have
been on the ground and examin-
ed the new find, that Masonic
will be the scene of renewed min
ing activity next spring.
When Masonic was discovered
some twelve or more years ago.,
the miners were looking for ore
that resembled that found in the
Bodie section. Such ore bodies
were found but carried extreme
ly low values. The Pittsburg-
Liberty has produced many
thousands of dollars but the ma
jority of properties worked new
er became producers. However,
with the new find, it again
proven that gold is where you
find it, and not always in rock
conditions existing in neighbor-
ing localities.

SMALL VALUATION
TOTALS FOR BEES

According to the returns made
by the county assessors the tot
al value of bees in Nevada at $3.50
per stand, is. So, 485. OF this
amount Lyon County takes first
rank with total bee-stand valu-
alton OF $1,000. Pershing county
comes next with $685.. Then
follow Churchill, Washoe, Clark
Douglas, Elko, Mineral, Nye,
Humboldt and Ormsby, in the
order named. There are no
stands of bees in Esmeralda, Eu-
reka, Lander, Lincoln, Story and
White Pine counties. according to
assessment rolls.
The state law makes provision
for payment OF, $500 per year for
an Inspector of aparies. Taxes
amounting to S184.28 will accrue
to the state from the S27, 4S5
worth of stands of bees.

THE COST OF DAINTINESS

1t we'll may be that daintiness,
especially in regard to food, is
we'll worth all it costs. But let
us admit that it does cost more
and that it has something to do
with the present high prices.
Take the case of the original
package. Our grandparents, yea,
our parents, bought butter from
tub, crackers from a barrel
and Clipped beef from the end Of
a fitch. But how different to-
day, since the advent of the germ
IN educational circles!
We will pay as much for seven
or eight ounces of biscuits, done
up in a pasteboard cartoon, and
prettily labeled, as would buy a
pound of them, even today, out
of barrel. Add wrapping Of
oiled paper, Theoretically sealed, Z
TO the carton and we will be con-
tent with six ouncesfor the same
money. Clipped beef presents
the same case. Done up in glass
or tin, we will pay twice the
price per pound for it we would
pay for the bulk.
Attach little key for ready
opening tin is such mussy
thing otherwise-and we will
stand for another cent. So it is
with butter, primes, ralsins, figs,
fancy flour and scores OF other
foods. 1t is all right, too, if we
don't forget that these refine
ments have added to the cost of
living.
There is, also, a daintiness that
is not all right-the daintiness
that will pay more for white-shell-
ed eggs than for brown-shelled
eggs; that will pay more for a
dozen eggs III a carton than out
side of one, and will pay more if
the eggs are sorted to the same
size. Statesmen are schooled to
play upon the Thickness OF the
city housewife. Farmers are
taught the same thing by their
rural papers and Government
bulletins. As a result, the city
housewife goes to market with a
heavier purse and comes home
with a lighter basket. Let us be
dainty, but not too dainty.

LOCAL BRANCH OF
LOAN ASSOCIATION

The Yerington local branch of
the Security Saving and Loan
Association held a meeting on
Tuesday evening in E. II. Whit
acres office. F. p. Davis, agency
manager, and +. G. Liston, spe-
cial agent OF Reno, were present
and informed the members that
the association stood ready and
willing to make immediate loans
in Ierington for home building
and a publicity campaign was
agreed upon to inform the general
public that such loans were now
available
The object OF the association is
to loan money for the purpose of
building homes, the money to be
repaid i'll easy installments. They
are doing a thriving business in
other parts of Nevada and believe
that the people of Yerington will
avail themselves of the opportu-
nifty to obtain a comfortable home
for a little more than they are
now paying rent for.

CRIPPLES RESTORED
TO USEFULNESS

In the interests of the common
good no Congress ever assembled
has framed and passed law SO
worthy as the Cripples of In
dustry bill which has passed
both houses Of the present Con-
gress.
It is estimated that fully 300
600 persons i'll the United States
are injured in the pursuits of in
dustry each year. More than 10
per cent of that number require
complete restraining because OF
the nature of their disability,
which does not permit Of their re-
turn to their old positions. More
than 80 per cent Of these unfor-
tunates have dependents. In
numerous cases these dependents
have become a charge upon the
community.
The law provides that hall a
million dollars will be available
the first year. The second year
$4,000 will be available, and
the third year the government
will allow S1,O0O,O00 for the re-
Mobilization of the handicapped
men, women and children.
