 Mining Editor, MohaVe County Miner
 Water has been cleared from the sLaft of the c. o. D. and the work of replacing crushed timbers is under way. As soon as the new timbers have been set the sinking to con nection with the 300 level will be un- dertaken. Ii is expected to encounter a large volume of water when the drill breaks through into the old works. The old part of the mine has been under water for a number of years, but it is not expected to find any large caves through this drift.
 Sinking is progressing on the Buck eye shaft and crosscutting is being carried north from the tunnel level. The water has been removed from the old shaft to the 100 level About the first of next week the mine will be entirely unwatered and exploration will be made throughout the proper ty. Important work will be under taken from the old works while the main shaft will be continued down. ward.
 Work is being continued on the Cerbat Tunnel by way of the exam ination of the field through which the tunnel is to pass. About 12 miles of the veining system has now been csmpled and the separate veins have been surveyed with all their individ- ual workings.
 Robert S. Billings M. & M. D., one of the best known geologists in the state, has been brought into the work, as consulting geologist. The services of MT. A. B. Burnett, superintendent of the Arizona-Butte Mines company. whose property adioins the big tunnel site, have also been secured and he

(5y G. B. LYMAN) Educational Department

Interesting meetings or the classes in the practical mining course are be- ing held at the Y. M. c. A. Wednesday afternoons and evenings under the di- rection of MT. s. O. Richardson. These meetings are held for the purpose of making a thorough review of the se- ries of AZ papers read during the course, covering all phases of min ing operations.
 Following the review classes exam nations will be held for the benefit of all Copper Queen employees, who have attended 21 or more of the lee lures to determine their eligibility as five men will be made up of members of the Copper Queen executive staff and miners The greater part of the examination will be oral and ratings will be as follows: Experience, 20; attendance, 10; habits. personality and ability to handle men, 20; exami- ration 50. The passing grade will be so per cent MT. Dickinson is now preparing a list of names of those wno desire to take the examination.
 The course offers an excellent op- portanity and a sure road to promo tion' to all employees who care to take advantage of it as well as all shift bosses in the future will be selected from the list of those who are sue cessful in the examinations.
 Aside from it's value in the Copper Queen the certificates presented will furnish the best of references in other mining camps.
 A new course has been outlined and regular classes will be started again in the near future. All pa rers will be entirely revised and re written and will consist of 40 articles on actual running operations, metal lurgy. ventilation, mathematics, cleo trlcity, geology, engineering, chemis- try. economics and others.
 Further examinations will be held from time to time for those who are qualified to take them.
 Safety First
 Work on the new safety first build ing near the Czar shaft is progress ing rapidly, after delays due to non arrival of material. At the time this department was organized it was housed in a small concrete building rear Sacramento Hill, which at pres cnt is not the safest vicinity in the district Aside from steam shovel operations requiring change or TO- cation, the work of the department has been gradually extended ever s wider scope, so it has outgrown it's cid quarters.

 A new change room for employees on Sacramento Hill is under construction near the Holbrook shaft. To obtain a suitable location it was to excavate

By becoming better educated than the average and by keeping your mind on helpful subjects you will not only qualify for higher financial rewards for positions of wider re- sponsibility and influence and power but you will lay up for yourself riches which neither moth nor rust doth corrupt" riches which will be- come valuable beyond price to you in later life when the things which money can buy cease to satisfy and one must find pleasure and satisfac- tion and joy from the inward not the outward, life.

1 and remove a large part of the old Folbrook dump. The trestle crossing the road at this points has been torn down. All waste rock hoisted a, vEe Holbrook shaft is now being 0umpec into railroad cars which are hauled to the regular Sacramento Hill dumps. Forms have been built for foundation of the new building which will be of the same general type as the change rooms recently built at the Czar and Lowell shafts and will be modern in every respect. Part of the building will be utilized as an office for the Ss cramento superintendent, time keeper, etc. At present the old Hol- brook change room is being used by the men on the hill, but is inconven- tent, due to location and inadequate facilities. This building will be torn down and the space it occupies will furnish dump room for Sacramento Hill waste.
 Power Plant
 Several large transformers are be- ing installed at the central power plant preparatory to meeting greater power demands, changes in distribu- tion, etc. The present plant is taxed to it's full capacity; no arrangements are being made for additional power from Douglas. Generators utilizing waste heat will be operated at the smelters delivering power to Bisbee over the steel tower transmission line recently completed.
 A substation is also being con Istructed at the new concentrator from which power feeders will be run to the Calumet and Cochise shaft to op- crate the large pumps which will de liver water to the new mill.
 The utilization of waste heat for power generation at the smelters marks the advance in efficient meth ods adjusted during the past few years.
 At one time practically all of the present Copper Queen shafts had it's own power plant, consisting of boil CTS engines, stacks, etc, using coal as fuel and requiring it's own crew of en- gineers, oilers, etc. The mechanical efficiency of these plants was low and overhead expenses high. These disadvantages led to the more eff cient arrangement of a central power plant, using coal and oil as fuel, and distributing power to each shaft in the form of compressed air and electricity At the time of its construction the present power plant was centrally To- csted with regard to operations and it's output sufficient for all require ments During the past two years op- erations have become more widely scattered as at the new mill, Calumet and Cochise shaft, etc, and demands have increased. Tn addition to the power supply from Douglas it will be necessary to erect new plant at Bis bee in the near future.

Blessed Are the Meek.

A little knowledge of book publishing teaches i'm
mense humility. The number of known instances in
which experienced publishers have erred in judy
ment is large. Authors always like TO hear of these.
But too much must not be dcduced from them.
Every one has heard of the rejection of HENRY
SYDNOR Ii HARRISON S novel QHeed. Many have heard
OF the publisher who decided not to - do Vicente:

way, and in each he had an exceedingly bad
translation to take reject 1--WE todd the only
worthy translation, apparently, being that which
brought out with such sensational success in the
early fall of 1918. A publisher lost Spoon River
Anthology because Of delay in acccptance-he
wanted the opinion of confrerc not easily reached.
For every publisher mistake of this sort there
could probably be cited an instance of pcr>picacity
much more striking. Such was the acceptance Of
EDWARD Lucas WHITE FL Supreme after many
reflections. And how about the publisher who ac-

A True Story.

Let US conclude these haphazard and very likely
mhelpful musings on an endless subject by telling
true story.
In the spring of 1919 one of the principal pub
fishing houses in America and England undertook
the publication of a very unusual sort of novel,
emi-autObOgraphical, a work Of love and leisure
by man who had gained distinction a.. an excel
tive. 1t was fine piece of work. though strange;
had delightful reminiscentia quality. The book
made up first edition of moderate size printed
and bound 1t was not till this had been done and
the book ready to place sale that the head of
this publishing house had opportunity to read it.
The head is a veteran publisher famous for his
prescience in the matter of manuscripts and for
honorable dealings
He read the book through and was charmed by
it he looked at the book and was unhappy He sent
for everybody who had had to do with the making
of this book He held up his copy and iuttcrrd
pages and said in effect
This has been done all wrong. Here is a book
of quite exceptional quality. | don think it will
sell. Only moderately, though perhaps rather
steadily for some years to come 1t won't make us
money To speak of Bat it deserves, intrinsically,
better treatment. Better binding This is only ordi
nary six months selling novel binding 1t deserves
larger type. Type with more beautiful face Fewer
lines to the page Loveler dress from cover to cover
Throw away the edition that has been printed.
Destroy it something. At least, hide it. Don let
any of it get OUT. For this has been done wrong all
wrong. Do it OVER
SO they went away from his presence and did it
right. 1t meant throwing away about $4,000 Or
was it $4,000 investment in the good opinion Of
people who buy, read and love booksH

WHAT EVERY PUBLISHER KNOWS

TT HERE is a gentlemen'S agreement among
Il publishers arrived at some years back,
not TO indulge in cutthroat competition for each
Nthcr's authors. This ethical principle, like most
ethical principles so far discovered, is dictated quite
much by considerations of keeping whole skin
as by sense Of professional honor. There some
men in the book publishing business whose honor
able standards have respect for the other fellow
property first among their Fourteen Points. There
others who best controlled by knowledge
themselves
The agreement, like most unwrittcn laws, IS IN
terprctcd with various ShadingS. Some of these are
subtle and some of them not. 1t is variOusly ap
piled by different in different eases, sometimes
unquestOnaby and sometimes do,.btfully. But in
the main it is pretty extensively and strictly up
held, in spirit in letter.
How far it tranSgresscS authors privileges or
limits authors opportunities would be difficult to
say. In the nature of the case, any such under
standing must operate TO extent to lessen the
chances of all author receiving the highest possible
compensation for his work. Whether this is offset
by the favorS and concessions, pecunary and other
wise, made TO an author by publisher to whom he
adhercs caIkt be settled. The relation of author
and publisher at best calls for, and sometimes
ELECTS, striking displays of loyalty on both sides.
Particularly among Americans, the most idealistc
people earth.
