 The suggestion, now gaining ground. that the act be permanent ly changed to make assessment work due on or before June 30 of each year, instead of coincident with the end of the calendar year, seems to us to carry on objection and, in fact, appears to be entirely sers'1lc For various causes work

ASSESSMENT ACT SUSPENDED

ASSESSMENT ACT SUSPENDED
 President Wilson has signed the bill by which annual assessment work for 1920 upon mineral claims in the United States and Alaska is postponed until June 30, 1921. This means that the work for 1920 must be performed before that date and that another assessment must be completed for the calendar year 1921.
 AS a general proposition we were strongly opposed to further suspen sion of the operation of ,hlS act, he- lieving that the course pursued dur ing the past three years has been extremely detrimental to the best interests of the industry. However the new bill, which is in the nature of a compromise, relieves many owners who have postponed work in the belief that some remedial

THE PROSPECTOR

Were it not for the prospector there wouldn't be any mines. He it is who takes his pack on his back and his life in his hands, who usu- ally outfits foB q trip about 50 per cent shy of the grub which he knows he viii need, depending Oh ,he p@r- cupine, fool-hen and less easily ob- tained game to eke out his exist ence while he Is away in the wilds.
 Sometimes he finds something good but more often he draws blank. Sometimes he leaves his bones at the bottom of a cliff or in a gully where they may be discov- cred in future years by an anthro- poloeist and classified in the pre- historic section of the genus homo.
 And perhaps the scientific sharp would not be entirely wrong at that. The proSpector needs more OF less boae-headedneSs in order to stand the hAsdships and disappointments with which he is continuously confronted.
 There have been thousands of prospectors but who, among the readers of these lines can name off, hand a half-dozsn who are now living in affiuenceH The pitlful side to his profession is the fact that while every mine has its fsun- dation in his discoveries, he seldom reaps the ultimate reward. He has not the capital to develop his pros- pects to the productive stage, and very seldom can he secure it. He is forced to sell ill order 10 live. and others reap where he has sown.
 It seems as though some system of governmental assistance might be worked out which would enable the prospector to enjoy at least a past of the fruits Of hts labors. If an honest government, dav1,u of graft, could exist, which would un- dertake the development of prom ising prospects on profit sharing basis and employ the same busi- ness judgement which brings suc- cess to the big mining companies, in a few year. there would be ne taxes to pay and the mining iii ,;;l3- try would receive t1 uup acedea;s q i'm. e;us:

TALK BY DIR. SMITH.

DR.. L. J. Smith gave another very
interesting talk to the students of A.
c. on the Bird of Nov His subject was
Air Air, he said is next to water
as a force in nature for we can live
only very few minutes without air.
Air, as breathed in, contains 70 parts
nitrogen, 2O.96 parts oxygen 4.O1
parts of Carbon dioxide; as breathed
ut it contains 70 parts nitrogen 1870 0s
parts oxygen and 4.38 parts carbon
dioxide, the anatomy of the living
being like a tree and it's branches
the branches becoming microscopic in
size The change occurs in the final
little branch where only thin It's
sue separates the blood from the air
lin the CELL Through this tissue the
gases and liquids neutralize themsel-
es Due to the necessity of air for the
individual there must be ventilation
for rooms One method of ventilation
is by means of windows. Either use
the buffing board or open the window
both at the top and bottom. Cross
currents should be obtained where
Ipossible Dr. Smith then named three
i features of air. First, motion is i'm
portant in ventilation. Second, air
| should be cool-not over 70 degrees
f, for brain and muscle work better in
cool air Third, Humidity is an i'm
portant feature in air. There must be
! certain amount of moisture in the
air which may be obtained by evap-
Grafton of water Air receives warmth
and water as it goes into the lungs.
Things that make the air unhealth-
full are gases, dust, smoke and germs.
The air should reach the skin and
the clothing should be porous for this
treason. Sunlight and fresh air are
needed for proper health so one
lshould live out of doors as much as
possible.
Deep breathing is important but we
lshould breath slowly and should mol
stand in a room where the-air is foul
This has a quieting effect on the
nerves, increases poise and equailzes

REV. FLANAGAN SPEAKS

Rev. Mr.. Flanagan spoke to the
A. {. c. students on Saturday the
5th. at the chapel exercises for the
nrst time this year. His subject was
Decision of Character" He quoted
James 1:6. which showed indeci-
sion of character person who cant
make up his mind. Decision, he said
means saving of time, conservation of
nervous energy and is characteristic
or men and women who achieve
tnlngs, Paul. Martin. Luther, Joffre,
Wilson and others were given as IL
lustrations of men of decision of
character. Decision makes for great
est efficiency in life. Indecision is
paralysis of usefulness. We, worry
too much about many insignificant
things in life. By thinking through a
thing and putting in execution your
plans you can cultivate decision OF
character. 1t is something we need
all the days of our life not only in
small choices but in great decisions
One great decision is that of being fol
or against Christ. The church doesn'1
advance fast due to the lack of deci
sion of Christian character We're toe
full of compromises with what is evil
Another big decision is choice of
life work. We must think what w,
are fitted for and apply ourselves tt

Bolshevism Among Capitalists as Well
as Labor, says Harold Bell Wright

That the only cure for the con-
f1ct between capital and labor is
a revival of the Nations war spirit
and it's application to industry is the
belief of the noted American author,
Harold Bell Wright.
"The Big Idea,'" he says, the
idea of the oneness of all humanity.
will come. 1 don't know how 1t will
come; but somehow, the appeal must
be made to the loyal citizens of this
nation in behalf OF the humanity that
is dependent for life itself upon our
industries, exactly as the appeal was
made in behalf Of the humanity that
locked to US for help in time of war"
I'VE must, as a nation, learn some
how to seel our work we felt our
war. The same ideals Of patriotism
and sacrifice and heroism that were
SO exalted IN the war must be held
up, in our everyday work. We must
learn to see oar individual jobs in
the industrial organizations of our
country as we saw our places in the
nations army. AS people we must
grasp the mighty fact that humanity
is the issue of our mills and shops
and Il actories and mines, exactly as it
wa3 the issue in our campaigns in
France"
",Fae individuals attitude toward
the Industries of the nation" says
Mr.. Wright, must be a test of his
d doyal citizenship just as mans at
tituie toward our army was a test.
And Americans dare not continue to
ig.cre the danger that lies in the
wc:k of those emissaries who are
seeking to weaken the loyalty of our
work.nnu and who, by breeding class
hatred and strife in our industries,
are trying to bring about the down
fall cE government and replace
the stcrs oEd stripes with the flag
that Is rs foreign to our American

PROMINENT VISITORS IN CHAPEL

On Thursday morning several peo-
pie who had been attending the State
convention of the Disciples of Christ
at Greenville were present at the
chapel exercises
! Mr.. F. E. Smith, head of Board of
! Ministerial Relief. lead in prayer, Mr.
G. l. Hoover. Promotional Secy., of
Board of Education of the Christian
Church read the scripture lesson. This
was followed by talk by Mr.. H. o.
Pritchard, General Secretary of the
Board of Education of the Christian
Church. In his talk he gave very
good definition of education-by
learning the art of cooperation. We
must teach people how to live to-
gether. In the coming disarmament
conference the question is that of
how the nations can cooperate. At
| the conclusion of his talk Mrs. Anna
r. Atwater. Vice Pres. of the United
! Christian Missionary Society spoke to
the students. Her subject was AT
The 'FRONT.' En- war she said there are
several classes-the gOssipers, the
men who plan the campaigns, the tax
payers and givers, the transporters of
ammunition, and the men on the fir
ing line who face the bullets. In the
social structure there is war between
right and wrong. She gave the wO-
men and children in Mexico as ex-
amples of people at the front fighting
against temptation. cold, and hunger.
In this army there is no organization
and the call is to the young people
to organize, equip, and train these
people, just as the missionaries are
now doing. People hide too much
behind the fortifcations of their
gold, beautiful houses etc, and do not
care about those at the front. The
fronts are everywhere that sin and
ignorance is found. God doesn't want
us to shun the front.
Mrs Atwater's address was splen-
did in every particular. A. c. c. thor
oughly enjoyed the visit OF these men
and women of national prominence
in their chosen field.
