Fires in metal mines in the United
States have caused more than zoo
deaths within the past five years. the
bureau of mines announced today. A
fire in one large copper mine has
burned continuously for more than
thirty years. causing the loss or sew
eral lives and of several million dol
lars in damage done. Another fire.
which has been burning for fifteen
years, has cost several lives at varl-
Gus times and has tied up more than
million tons of ore. A third fire
resulted in a loss of more than twen-
ty lives, and in fourth mine the
loss of life was high. Few mine fres
in which the fire has obtained a fair
ly good start have been handled for
less than $4,000 and the average cost
of fire in metal mine is several
times $4,000.

womenfolk are prohibitiOnists and
they are seeing to it more and more
at the elections that prohibition en-
forcement is put in the hands of it's
friends and not its enemies.
Several States already have laws
under which the buyer of booze can
be punished equally severely with the
bootlegger. The Anti-Saloon League
is back Of such legislation, and with
in few years most of the States
will have such a law. Then the boot
legger's customer will have to weigh
the chances Of his going to Jail with
the bootlegger if he is caught.
The average family has a lot more
money for food clothes, shoes and
luXuries than it had when Dad spent
a wad every week for booze and
millions Of Dads have been won over
to the idea that he can get along
without booze, and that the money
win buy things more worth while.
There is a nationwide movement
on to induce folk to sign pledges not
to buy booze.
In subsequent articles I will go
moro into detail as 10 the progress
Of the prohibition movement.
