GREAT ACTIVITY At PLANT
OF AMERICAN SMELLING

Among the local plants that have
showed a great increase during the
past few months, both in the num-
Der of men employed and the
amount of business done, is that of
the American Smelling & Refining
Company. This plant situated along
the banks of the Kill Won Kull is
one of the largest refining plants to
be found in this section OF the coun-
try and furnishes labor to a large
number OF men.
This concern does a general re-
fining business. that is, the refining
of copper from ore. which in turn
calls for the refining of gold and
silver. The company also refnes tin
and lead. During the curse of a
year a large number of vessels from
South America and Mexico. steam to
the docks of the plant where the
ore is u~nloaded.
During the war this company
erected several new buildings in or
der to take care of increased BUSH
ness and to give the employees bet
ter working conditions. When the
move back to normally began. this
plant with others in the city was
greatly affected and for a time hard
ly a wheel was turning: today all is
different, however.
Perhaps the best way for n to
understand the conditions al this
plant at the present time is to COM
pare the activities this year with
those of n year ago. One year ago
the plaLt was giving work to but
$50 employees. Today there are
nearly a thousand persons employed
and more are needed.
The company has underway at this
time, the reconstruction of the tank
house, this is a big job calling for
many skilled men. as it is one of
the most important departments in
connection with the refining of cop
per. This large building. housing
the tanks In which the copper is
placed while undergoing part of the
refining process is being reconstruc-
ted from top to bottom and put in
first class condition. 1t will require
sometime before the work can be
completed.
The ore for the tin plant comes
from South America and the ore
for the lead department from Mexi-
CO. The ships plying between these
counties and the plant here are Of
ten seen in these waters.

BARRIERS NEVER
 TRIMMED 4 BEARD

London, Sept. PA reminder of the survival of the ancient trade guilds in London. long after their members have ceased to have any connection with trades they ostensi- ply represent, is provided by the cleo ton Of Sir Samuel G. Shead as chair man of the Company of Barbers for the ensuing year.
 Sir Samuel never was barber and if any of his ancestors ever were he has forgotten 1t. And the same ss true of all the members of the com pany. But they are very proud Of the old traditions which the company once maintained, and get together on stated occasions to eat generous dinner, washed down with good wine, nd listen to speeches about the good old times.
 The company Is an ancient one. It was incorporated in 1461, and 50 years later an act was passed which prevented any persons not members of the company from practtcing sur gerry within seven miles of the city Of London unless they had been licensed by the Bishop of London.
 Barbers were versatile folk in those times, combining the catfons or surgeon and dentist with the work of trim ming hair and boards.

Urge New Tennis
 Tilts For Women

Wimbledon. Sept. 22.-British lawn tennis enthusiasts are itching for a real match between the six best wom- en players of the United States and the six best English women And Tn the1r clubs at night they argue that Amer1ca would not take more than one match out of the six.
 This is their line of argument Mrs. Mallory is the champion of America. She was hopelessly. indisputably beat en here by Miss Kitty McKane, the rising English hope. although the pair never met in the great games at Vim b1edon. She was beaten twice by Mrs. Bean1ish and beat her twice in return. She was beaten by Mrs. Pea cock. the thigd best English player
 Apart from these ladies there are Mrs. Satterwaite, Miss Rose and Miss Collier.- all in the first class And among the older players are the two eX-champions, Mrs. Lambert Cham bers and Mrs. Green and perhaps the best doubles player of all, Mrs. R. J. Mcair.
 This combination, British fans be- heve. would easily defeat any team that America could produce.
 It is interesting to note that at the conclusion of the Wimbledon tourna- ment the women playing were ranked in this order:
 Mile. Lenglen. Miss McKane, Miss Elizabeth Ryan. Mrs Beamish. Mrs Mrs Peacock.

 London at Sea.
 London, Sept. 22-Views of the Near Eastern crisis here fuctuate be- tween hope and fear.
 The immediate peril is in the pos sibility that the Turkish Nationalist troops will attack the British posi- tions along the Dardanelles.
 It is confidently hoped that re- sumption of the conversations of the Allied statesmen in Paris today will lead to the sending of an invitation to the Angora government to par settle the Dardanelles question and the Turkish claims.
 Paris. Sept. 22-The Near East sit- uation seemed @ little more hopeful, at least from the viewpoint of pre- sumption today of the conferences between Lord Curzon and Premier Poincare.
 Disturbing reports, however. con-,, tinue to come from Constantinoples and it is reported that the. Turkish Nationalists are on the point of issu., ing any ultimatum to the allies, de- mandtng the evacuation of Thrace within 49 hours.
 1t is probable that the date and place of the peace conference will be settled at todays meeting, but 1t Is not thought the Allied statesmen will be able to do more than this, as 1t is becoming increasingly obvious that the other details still require closer consideration.
