THE MUSIC OF THE MINES

There is music in the mountains
sweet melodious sound
AS the air drills keep a humming,
when the men "get in their round.
In the chorus Of the booming
of the blasts at close of day.
The clanking of the hammer
of the blacksmith joins play
The tones ntermnged
with the whispering of the pines
Yes my friend, tits sweet to listen
to the music of the mines.
The compressors rhythmic beating
it gives the drills the air,
Sounds like the drums retreating
with the tank the trombone player;
The clicking of the
they're passing the track
And the rumbing of the "emptes'
they're swiftly going back;
The hum of the Transformers
and of transmission lines -
Is like the peal of organs
Yes there's music at the mines.
The grinding of the crusher
and the crashing of the ore,
Is like the
r gLs beating 'gainst the shore.
And soothing and enchanting
the steady sounding cank
Of the stamps, a they crushing
out the money for the bank;
And like a silvery
the amagam table shines.
There is harmony and beauty,
and there's at the mines
And when the day over
and the shift.
As tired wet and grimy
they're emerging from the drift,
The sound of merry
mingled wi the gong
Of the dinnerbelrs peaing,
and with the miners
And the evening twilight
the snowy hills entwines,
There's strain of enchantment 4
in the music of the Mines

the year. The Augusta is true fis-
sure and undoubtedly the strongest
lead in the country From ten to
thirty feet in width it can be traced
for miles while there is not an ounce

no blind proposition, and everyone
who is acquainted with the fact is
looking forward to the time when
