publishing book of advice to au- tomobile drivers" with the idea Of teaching them how to avoid inassa- cring the populace
 This is all very well as far as it goes. but what the public is anx iously awaiting is complimentary volume of advice to pedestrians. ' showing them how to dodge the taxis. The latest scheme of having traffic controlled by mounted police is not great success, certain people main taining they would just as soon be run down by moderate sized taxi cab as stepped on by horse.
 The styles of the last few seasons have thrown panic into the corset in dustry. Leading members of~ the trade here don't know whether to at tribute the boycott of their products to the world wide craze for disarma- ment or what. but in any case they have decided that a vigorous propa- ganda in favor of stays and laces must be begun at once. The opening shot in the campaign was the corset ball, held at a popular Paris hotel few days ago.
 At the same time comes news from London that the latest musical com edy is to have the ladies of the cho- rus promenade among the audience singing the chorus, which runs, Please. kind sir, hook up my dress e Each pauses at the end of the chant before spectator and turns her back unbuttoned before him.
 Legend hath 1t that men loathe nothing more than to have to tumble with buttons, hooks and snaps" but the London news is that the audience sacrificed itself with good grace and enabled the girls to get back to the stage properly attired.
 Some of the wives of these oblig- ing gentlemen are of the opinion that the gallantry of this sort should be- gin at home. and 1t Is suspected that they will make the punishment fit the crime

LET ALL PAY TAXES

Senator Reed Shoot of Utah has proposed an amendment to the Con- stitution that would permit the Fed eral Government to tax securities is sued by states and municipalities. At present bonds of that nature are tax-free, and MT. Smoot estimates that $7O0,00O,0OO is lost annually to the Government because of it's in ability to levy against them. "The enactment of some such provision is absolutely necessary" declares Sen- ator Shoot, eff the Government is to collect any material amount of taxes in the future from persons oi large incomes. My information is that the taxes from this source have fallen from $917, 100000 a year down to an estimated amount of less than $200,000,000 for the year, 1920. The amendment of the constitution in the way have suggested seems to me a matter of necessary >self-protection by the Federal Government.

THE EVERLASTING METAL

Why is it that the automobile built back in 1910 did not show the streaks of rust after years of use that the average automobile shows today if submitted to the effect of the weather for six months?
 Because practically all the screws and trimmings, wind shield, head lights, running boards, hub caps. dash fixtures and every place where water could creep in had brass fit tings.
 Today even in high grade cars steel screws are used and common Jacks go in the top. Head lights are stamped from cheap iron and headlight trimmings are nickleplated The wind shield is a piece of bent sheet metal painted black and in 8 short time after the water has TUT in around the cracks the detriorat ing effect of rust is seen.
 Every metal has it's use but where permanence and strength are bott required and where the article 1T question is subjected to dampness and the effects of the atmosphere nothing can take the place of copper and brass.

GROWTH OF CHRISTIANITY

In the year 1900, the world had 60,- 100000 people who professed the Christian faith. By the year 1900. the number had grown to 100000, 900. Now the Christian religion has 5OO.- 000,000 followers, covering more than S5 per cent of the habitab ble earth
 In the last century Christianity grew two and a half times more than in the combined eighteen preceeding centuries. In the last twenty years the number of Christians has in creased mere than in any twenty years since the time of Christ.
 The forces of religion are stronger today than ever before and are be- ing strengthened every hour.

SILVER THE CREDIT sTAaILIzER

The coinage of silver is the world S al monetary medium is vitally neces- sary - 1'',s-'
 Gold coinage of pre-war averages is out of the question due to lack of gold to meet imitation. If Europe especially is to adopt any kind of sound currency, at least the kind that possesses unequivocaI circulating value, it must be through silver ra- ther than gold coinage.
 This should be obvious to even those who are only superfcially in terested in the subject.
 It is hardly conceivable that ma jority expert opinion will insist that paper money of the kind Europe has circulated in the past ten years is either sound Or sensible.
 If they again resort to paper money in the form of indemnity bonds, which now is indicated in certain directions, they will fall deeper into the rnire of economic destruction. Silver seems to offer the only hope for establishing sound credit. If this sound credit viewpoint is correct and if these European nations fail to face realities. then the Far Eeasj and this country will prevail above the lwrecl1age, as these countries will hold the tangible monetary wealth ol 1 the world

BUY SOMETHING MADE OF
 COPPER

We all remember the Buy Bale of Cotton" slogan during the war when the cotton industry was Ian- gushing, and we have not forgotten that the cotton growers and work CTS in the cotton fields received en- couragement and assistance from the putting into practice of that slogan.
 Our mountain states contain some of the greatest copper mines in the world and the business of cities of considerable size rises or falls with the prosperity or dullness of the copper industry.
 There is no question as to the ul- innate prosperity of this industry. for copper is indispensable in the work of the world, but meanwhile there is a dull period during which it is coming back.
 We cannot all buy "bale" of cop per but we can assist by buying some thing made of copper. Many useful household utensils are made largely OA COppOI, d1Iu Ol CODDei make handsome decorations for the home. In it's refined polished state the red metal is beautiful, and ar ticles made of it last through gener ations.
 Some of us can remember grand mothers copper kettle, prized witf her most valued household posses sions. and how she was filled witt anxiety when she loaned it to { neighbor to make apple butter, fear ing that some careless person might permit it to become burned in the bottom. Her relief was great wher 1t came back in good shape.

GOOD RESOLUTIONS
he new year is more than a month

The new year is more than month old now but it is never too late to make good resolutions. One of the leading business houses of the coun- try, in a circular letter to it's cus- toners on the first of January, sug- gested the following:
 ITO be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind
 ''To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
 ''To talk of health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet
 ITO look on the sunny side of everything and try to make your opinion come true.
 ITO think only of the best, to ex- pect only the best.
 ITO be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own
 past and to press on to greater | things in the future
 ''To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and to have a smile ready for every living creature you meet
 "To give so much time to the i'm provement of yourself that you have no time to criticise others
 ''To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
 Proclaim this fact to the world-in loud words but in great deeds.
 'To live in the faith that the world is on your side so long as you are true to the faith that is in you''
 This is a fine code. and we would all be better off and happier if we would live by it. There can be no better time for making these resolu tions than now, but the important thing is to keep the. resolutions af- ter we make them

Concentrates
CONCENTRATES

LABOR SITUATION-The amour cement that the largest mines Of Arizona will open at various dates in the month of February is not prac. tically unanimous but the announce ments have all been tempered with the statements that the opening can not do much more in the beginning than relieve the local unemployment situations. It is known that some of the mines have hesitated about mak ing announcement due to the possi- bility of attracting a flood of unem ployed. Skilled labor seems to be ill demand at most of the camps but ordinary labor is generally plentiful.
 COPPER SITUATION-The pres ent supply of copper for domestic consumption is considerable less than 200, 1000 900 pounds or less than three months supply. The starting of the sn1elters early in Feb, uary, however, is assurance that there will be n3 shortage. While a shortage might bring a higher price for the metal, it will also bring a greater use of substitutes and a restricted demand.
 DOUGLAS-Three blast furnaces will be blown in at the starting of the Copper Queen shelter operations. This will require between four and five hundred men or an increase in the force of about 200 While the c. and A have made no definite announ- cement; Col Greenway has indicated February as the starting month. = DOS CABEZAS-The Elma Shaft at the Central Copper Company prop erty which is being sunk 1000 feet is now down to the 300 and the sta tion is being cut. A station has also been cut on the 200 level. A new ore body has been encountered dur ing the last week on the 300 level at the Consolidated mine which now makes over 60 openings in ore.
 PHOENIX Settlement has been made with the Amalgamated Gold Mines Co.,. upon whose land the Cave Creek Dam is to be placed. The land was condemned but settlement was made out of court. It is understood that the company is going to install the Tracy Process for the teaching of their ore taken from ground below the dam site.
 MIAMI-While there is no definite announcement coming out of the lns- piration offices relative to the re-
 sumption of the mill, the number oi men being put at work and the ac- tivity around the mill indicates an early announcement. Also the fact that the International Shelter has | blown in another furnace shows the need of more concentrates to keep i- going.
 AJO-Dividend payments at the rate of $1.O0O per annum have re- sumed by the New Cornelia Copper | Company. The payment to the Cal
 umet and Arizona Mining Company 1 on the stock owned by that company is about $300,O0O. The resumption of dividends is but one of the many ! signs of the improved market for copper.
 OATMAN-The first 1922 dividend from the United Eastern Mining Com pany has been paid. This company paid 30 cents in 1921, it's high year ! being 1920 with 72 cents paid. The total disbursements aggregate almost s4.OOO, 900. Ore is now being milled from the Big Jim property which
 was purchased in 1917.

BUSINESS FAILURES

R. G. Dun & Company, credit in vestigators, announce that there were 19,562 business failures in the United States last year.
 That is a large number, but it shouldn't scare anybody In 1915 there were 2o,593 failures.
 Nearly 2.O0O,O00 firms and individu- als were doing business in the United States in 1921. Consequently, there was about one failure out of every one hundred firms

Democrats throughout the state are wearing a grin from ear to ear fol lowing the meeting of the Democra- tic State Central Committee when the decision was reached to hold 9 State Democratic Conference for the purpose of endorsing a Democratic State Ticket in the primaries. The concern of the Republican press of the state over the action of the com mittee is ample evidence of the alarm of our republican friends over the results in the political contest in November.

With the resumption of copper production on a reduced scale at the two big smelters in Douglas on Fc- bruary l to be followed this month by Jerome and Clarkdale is the best evidence of the gradual revival of the demand for our greatest indus trial output. The resumption of pro- duction at Douglas is from 30 to 50 days ahead of general expectations and if the copper demand continues to improve we have reason to expect that smoke will be rolling from the big stack at the Clifton smelter be- fore the autumn leaves begin to fall.
