Our Wonderful AGE
TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Lede.

TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledee,:
Sir-The death yesterday OF Alex
ander Graham Bell, inventor Oh tne
telephone, recalls most vividly to US wno
have passed the half century marx .Ie
wonderful progress that has been Ii.ao,, nau"
since the first Centennial Exposi.'Vm" m
threw open its gates to the puo''
this city.
When the conditions existing today
are compared with those obtaining at
that time, the conviction deepens una.
the last five decades have constituted an
age of marvels. In these nifty yehIs
the one telephone exhibited at the zen.
tennial has grown to millions ana ~ 10
now household and business necess,.s.
Out of it and its sister science, wlreiess
telegraphy. has come the radiophone,
which brings so many Of the greas
minds and the most finished artiStS
into intimate contact with hundreds VI
thousands of our citizens.
Automobiles have virtually suppiantee
the steady and reliable 'Dobbin OF
the earlier days. Huge and powerful
machines have taken the place OF the
heart breaking labor to which our an
cestors were doomed electric lights In
the homes. the Offices and the streets
have ousted the oil and gasoline lamps,
the only artificial illumination our
grandfathers knew. The air has Deen
conquered, ard daring pilots now ny
across oceans and continents at speed
greater than that possessed by the
swiftest of birds. .
Diseases that once took their toll OF
human life by the hundred have been
stamped out and we live longer ana
enjoy more than those who preceded Us.
Labor's hours have been cut from rem
and twelve a day to eight, with prob
ability Of still further reduction In the
near future. Childhood Is coming into
it's own, and now, with its rural high
schools, is being prepared to face the
future unafraid.
Unfortunately. there is reverse side
of the picture. Perhaps the World War
was largely responsible. At any rate,
while It was in progress poison gases.
whose lethal power was almost unlim-
tied, were turned loose for the first
time. Big guns capable Of throwing
heavy shells almost 100 miles were
planned and forged and put into use,
while the death dealing submarines. the
wolves of the sea. attained an eff
cheney that not even their inventor ever
dreamed. Happily, the possibility that
these terrible instruments of destruction
will ever be called into use again seems
now remote.
! The first message that was flashed
across the Atlantic cable. we are told
were the four words "What hath Go,
wrought ~ Are they not equally ap.
plicable to this wonderful age in whicl
we are privileged to live?

NORTH BUNKER HILL.
.crosscut From Shuck Tunnel Finds
Promising Vein.

OFoSScut from onuck unnel FINDS
Promising Vein.
Work by the North Bunker Hill
company, near Wardner has for some
time been confined to the Shuck tun-
mel, east OF the Caledonia workings
and southwest of Haystack peak More
recently a crosscut was started south
toward the fault, the plans also being
to follow this work by drifting north,
the purpose being to get a more defin-
lite line on the lower workings with
reference to the surface showing. Az
ter driving south about $50 feet a vein
was cut which proved to be about Is
feet wide and carrying from 10 to 20
ounces in silver with some lead. This
vein corresponds to a vein upon which
a shaft was sunk many years ago and
which showed a similar character of
ore. Drifts will be run i'm both direc-
lions on this vein after which
.crosscut viii be run north from the
Shuck tuns 81 to prospect ground up
on which there is an even better sur
face showing and in a more favorable
formation. While considerable ore has
been. found i'm the lower workings Of
the North Bunker Hill the ground is
very much broken and it is believed
that the work now being done will en-
able the. company 20 solve the prob
lem and locate the ore shoot.
