ALASKA MINES INCREASE

The Department of the Interior through the Geological Survey, has announced that the value of the Alaska mine production in 1922 was S19,506,365,. an increase of S2,- 500,000 over that of 1921. This increase according to Alfred H. Brooks, Chief Alaskan Geologist, is entirely due to a larger copper out put. About $500 men were em- ployed in Alaska productive mining during 1922, and in addition to these about thousand were en- gagged in prospecting and mine de- velopment work. Since mining first began in Juneau in 1880, the Terri tory has produced minerals to a to- tai value of 7,986,278, which has come chiefly from gold and cop per deposits.
 The outstanding features of the Alaska mining industry in 1922 are:
 1. Preparations for drilling in the Cold Bay oil field, Alaska Pen insula, were made in 1922 by two strong companies, and was started in the winter of 1922-23. It is re ported that in May two wells had reached depths of 300 and60O feet, but will have to drill at least 800 or 900 feet more to reach the SUD- posed oil stand;
 ?. Installation of large placer mining plants continued and the work on same was so we'll sdvanc- ed as to assure their operation in 1923;
 3. The activity in gold lode de- velopment, already for 1921, as continued in 1922;
 4. the copper production of 1922 was nearly 43 per cent greater than that of 1921, and there was a re- vival of prospecting for copper. AL aska's mining needs capital for it's further development, and during the year there were many encouraging signs that large mining companies were turning their attention to Alas ka as prospective field for invest ment. The above data are taken from the annual report.

Faith Brought Forth by War.

The great harvest of death in France
brought the subject of life eyerlast-
ing more closely home to millions Of
men and women than it was ever
brought before and has made Easter a
more significant festival, for it stands
for resurrection and only faith in that
doctrine, that mystery, can reconcile
those who make the great sacrifice to
their fate or can console those who
mourn. The very war itself has in
stilled this faith Whenever soldiers
who have been at the front express
themselves on the subject 1t is to
show belief in a future life. The
testimony of chaplains and of nurses
is that the men do not consider the
destruction of their bodies the end

HOW LONG TO STAY

A n INVITATION to have luncheon
"A with friend or to attend a formal
luncheon Is not an invitation to spend
the entire afternoon. At least, in smart
society nowadays, it is not considered
necessary to remain more than quar-
ter Of an hour after the meal has been
concluded, nor is it courteous to re-
main more than three-quarters of an
hour unless the hostess has especially
requested her guests to do so. 1t may
be that the hostess has some other So
cial engagement for the afternoon. She
may have calls to make or tea to at
tend. II she is busy woman, with
professional or household duties to at
tend TO, she certainly will not want
you to linger. In fact, sometimes busy
folk invite their acquaintances to
luncheon because, since they must take
time to lunch anyway, they lose no
time that way. So usually, unless the
hostess expects you to leave shortly
after luncheon, she indicates this In
her invitation If she is giving for
NAL luncheon she indicates that there
will be music or cards or something Of
that sort after luncheon. Otherwise II
is best to linger not over three-Quarters
of an hour.
But except among persons with very
crowded engagement books a dinner
invitation means the entire evening.

guests usually remain until nearly
eleven o'clock or later. 1t certainly

NF GREEK NEUROLOGICAL origin is

Milton employs the term frequently !:
While Cynthia checks her dragon yoke,

Since Diana or Cynthia was the

England's virgin queen, Elizabeth,
was often alluded to as Cynthia In
the literature Of her time. The name
was therefore very popular in Great
