mcnto, and other places. and, when
the reports from each Of these places
showed that the ore carried gold In
the sum of an average Of $234.9S
per ton, with some added silver val.
ue, they became excited and began
to take serious interest in the dis.
covery.
lho result is that additional funds
are being raised by those who are
interested, and today Chavez returns
to the discovery with sufficient
funds to permit of his engaging a
crew of workers to drive shaft
and take out ore for shipping to the
smelter at Sacramento, and on Sun
day morning a party of local men
will go to the mine to make per.
sonal inspection.
According to Chavez, he first 10.
Gated the mine in January of 1929.
and was impressed with the forma-
tion and showing of the outcrop.
He began to do little prospecting
on the ledge, and arrived at the con-
clusion that he had found something
good. Thereupon he made his fill
ings in regular order on 30 acres of
mining ground. Later on he needed
more money for development, and in
this connection he talked with j. A,
Nelson, city clerk of Mexicali, M.
Magallon, purchasing agent for
Mexicali, j. Castro, Mexicali coun-
Gilman and l.. Garza, who each con-
tributed sums which made it possi-
bic for Chavez to continue develop
ment work.
To Inspect Mine
On Sunday morning Messrs. Mels-
son, Magallon, Castro and Cara
drive to the mine for an inspection
and to secure additional samples for
display here.
Besides Mr.. Chavez and the Mexi-
cali people named, there are two
Ensenada mem AID three Tecate
men interested in the property.
The mine is called the "Mina Nu-
eva," is located about 60 miles
south of Mexicali, and is 80 miles
.. south of the San Diego and Arizona
railroad line, with an easy grade
road over which truck loads of orc
may readily be transported.
1t is said an offer of 1000 cash
has been made for the mine by out
side parties interest, but this has
been refused, the owners figuring
the property of such value as to
make sale of the property q sacri-
flee.
The FL Sueno mine, yielding gold
to the value Of $98 per ton, and
shipping regularly with large
crew of men working at the mine, is
located about 33 miles south Of the
new discovery.

Beauty Rehests Differ Today
Some people are short-sighted
enough to criticize the woman OF
today for the time she uses to make
herself attractive. II these critics
had been fortunate enough to have
attended the exhibit at the Art Gen.
ter in New York City Of the Houbi-
CANT Collection Of seventeenth and
eighteenth century perfume con-
tainers and toilet accessories, used
by women OF the time Of Marie An
toinette back to 1910, in the reign
of Louis Thirteenth, they would
have seen as through a telescope
that the only difference between
women of yesterday and those OF
today is that Habit and Fashion re-
ouired them to seek beauty in diff
ferent ways.
Take a typical vanity case Of the
period Of the ill-fated Louis Six
teenth. around 1890. What does It
contain? And. more significant
still, OF what is It made?
Among the priceless pieces IN
the Art Center exhibit (the personal
collection Of M. Fernand laval.
head Of the French perfume house
of Houbigant) were many art.
cles similar to those illustrated.
coIfsures Through Sedan Root
How eloquent they are Of the lit
tie things that worried the lady Of
Marie's court! For instance. there
is tiny gold bodkin. Not for dain.
ty garments was 1t used, but to
weave ribbons through the tremen-
dously high hair dressings Of that
day, coiffures SO tall that holes
we're necessary In the tops OF car
riages through which the hair could
protrude while my lady was en-
route to her destination. Imagine
the ordeal Of maintaining q courtly
composure in the presence OF roy
atty. Just after somebody has whis-
pered that the ribbon In your hair,
some few feet above, has become
loosened! Especially when you re-
member that the maid needed to
stand on chair to reach it! And
with the added horrifying thought
that, without the support Of the rib
bon as a binder, the whole hair
structure may collapse at any sec
ond! Certainly those wigs were
not designed for Z moving picture
audience!

An item of interest to the farm

Rev. J. A. McGaughey will
preach tonight at the newly or

month ago this church organiza-
tion came into being, following Ii
series of meetings conducted there
by Mr.. and Mrs. McGaughey.
The Women's Organization Of

noon at the home of Mrs. W. L
Covert. The hour was devoted to
the transaction of business and the
study of India. Following the study
of India dainty refreshments were
served.
The address at the High School
by S. n. (Doc) Rutherford, was 4
most thrilling recital of his life
story, holding the students as few
things have. The speaker came I'M
der the auspices of the Y. NJ. c. A.
and this organization is very for
tunate to have a man so capable
and who speaks so authoritively ON
the evils of cigarettes and dope.
Doc Rutherford has dedicated the
rest of his life to this mission.
A fire of considerable conse
quences resulted yesterday from
the supposed careless throwing of
cigarette in a corral Of refuse
at the }. A. Harris gin. The spark
blazed in the straw and the heavy
wind carried the sparks a couple
of blocks distance, to where a num-
ber of cotton bales were stationed
in the Compress yards, setting fire
and destroying IL bales and injur-
ing some 16 or Is bales, before the
fire could be brought under control
by the fircmen. The loss of the
cot ION is estimated at about $4,000.
