PAWNBROKER'S SIGN

1t is as well established now as any,
thing of the kind can be that the three
golden balls which have so long been a
trade sign of the pawnbroker were the
symbol of the Lombard merchants, and
not as has often been suggested the arms
of the Medici family. The Lombards in
habited the lower basin of the Elbe, and
after many years of conquest they at last
settled in the north of Italy. The king
dom of the Lombards lasted about 200
years, and more than century later was
merged into duchy during the larger
political struggles and changes in Europe
In England the enterprising traders and
bankers, who from the 18th to the 10Th
centuries found their way to the west al
though bearing the name of the Lombards,
did not all come from Lombardy. The
origin of the three balls is believed to be
in the weapons used by the barbarians.-

STEPPING-STONES ACROSS
THE PACIFIC

Notwithstanding the ravages of civiliza-
ton, the Tahitians remain picturesque
enough to attract to the Society Islands
many occidental tourists who yearn to eat
of the lotus in primitive lands But in
spite of the tourists, France is decidedly
out of pocket as result of her ownership
of this group and other groups in the
South Seas. The Minister of Colonies is
each year forced to add to his budget
good round sum to exc out the local bud
get of the islands. And, barring the nickel
of New Calendonia, the products of the
groups bring but little money into French
hands; the entire trade is relatively insig-
nificant and the bulk of it goes to other
countries than France. AT best, the islands
only yield support for handful of traders
and officials. Yet they are important. Since
the opening of the Panama Canal Papeete
has become a port of call for steamers
bound for Australia, and the rockgirt har-
bors of the Society Islands are, as canny
Frenchmen long ago foresaw, veritable
Gibraltars on the western route to Asia
And New Caledonia, acquired for penal
settlement, has in Noumea harbor COM
manding the Indian Ocean. France holds
her island possessions for the same reason
that the other Powers hold theirs because

and self-confdence that presage victory.
They don't know the psychology of sales
manship; that it consists in holding the
conviction of success always in mind and
so they fall down before the slightest op-
position. There are thousands of second
rate statesmen who have enough ability to
make crackerjacks but who fail to get re-
suits because of their doubts and fears. AT
every little objection made by prospect,
they keep thinking and saying to them
selves: There l am going to lose that
man; just feel it in my bones. l wish
could get an order from him, but it's no
use; he's not going to sign" They do not
realize that they are communicating their
own doubts and fears to their prospect. 1t
doesn't take very sensitively organized
person to feel the negative failure atmos-
phere, and when he first lays his eyes upon
one of those timid, doubling statesmen, the
prospect knows that he is not a winner.
Instead of victory, he sees defeat in his
face; and if defeat is in a mans face he
can't win, no matter how much ability he
has. His failure atmosphere repels every
one he contacts with.
Negative minds never make great sales
men, or great anything else, because they
don't build, they tear down. They are not
creative, but destructive. They go through
life closing the very doors ahead of them
which they long to open; pulling with one
hand, so to speak, on the doorknob, while
at the same time holding foot of doubt
against that very door which they are try
ing to open. If they affirm their belief
that there are good things for them, al
most before they leave their lips they neu-
traize their aAirmations by their secret
doubts. They say one thing, but expect
the opposite, just like the women who
prayed to the Lord to remove the sand
heap from her yard, and when she got
through praying looked out and said,
"There it is, just as expected Of course
the Lord didn't remove it!" That is the
trouble with most of u.s., we pray and we
work hard for things, and when we don't
get them, it is "ust as we expected" We
couldn't get what we wanted and longed
for, because there was no faith, no belief,
back of our efforts and our prayers. You
know what St. James says of the man who
doubts and fears and has not faith: "Let
not that man think that he shall receive
anything of the Lord"
No matter what the conditions of your
birth, it is you who shape your career,
fashion your life for happiness or unhap-
piness, success or failure. 1t is true of all
men and women that-"They themselves
are makers of themselves" If you want
to live the larger life, believe the larger
life is for you; you must enlarge your
model of yourself and of your possibili-
ties; you must expect to realize your ideal
of yourself and of the thing you long to
do; for, as a man expecteth, so will his
happiness, so will his life be.

WEBB CITY.

According to the American Zinc
Lead and Copper Journal of Joplin
some local and eastern companies
have obtained leases on a large aero
age north and west of Webb City Mo.
and an intensive drilling campaign is
to be launched in an effort to revive
mining in that field.
According to T. F. Coyne, George T.
Kusterer, John c. Veatch, John Skin
ner and other former active mine op-
orators in that field. leasing of land
by representatives of eastern compan-
les has been in progress for several
months, and the companies plan start
irg drilling in the near futur'. A few
drills have been started and the oper-
at'ons are expected to extent north
and west from the Webb Guy field T.
the Waco field.
An effort will be made by local bus
mess men to get land owners to lease
their lands at a reasonable royalty, it
being believed that a high royalty
charge will thwart the plans of those
in charge to develop that once fam
ous zinc mining fields deeper ore runs
md revive mining there on a large
scale.

northward to the Columbia, north

flowing from these mountains furnish
water for irrigating millions of acres
of land, for developing electrical en-
ergy at many water power plants, and
in their lower courses for transporta-

from these streams is therefore of in

ARIZONA MINES IN 1922
INCREASED PRODUCTION
ALL METALS RECORD NOTABLE
GAINS DUE MAINLY TO
BETTER PRICES.

The value of the gold, silver. cop
per, lead and zinc produced by mines
in Arizona in 1922. according to the
estimate of V. c. Heikes of the u. 5.
geological survey, was SOS, 21s, 900;
the value in 1921 was S2956S,472 A
marked increase was made in the
production of all metals as a result
of the resumption of activities early
in the year at the large mines and
smelling plants. The total, however
was not unusually large and did not
approach the average of the last 10
years.
Gold
The gold produced increased from
$3.50, sOS in 1921 TO Ss.61S,OOO in 1922
as result of the increase in gold
from the smelling and refining of cop
per ore. The largest output of gold
came, as in past years, from the Unit
ed Eastern mine at Oatman, but the
output of the San Francisco Goat
mani district decreased from $2,3IO.-
SS5 in 1921 to about $1,S79,5 in 1922
Silver.
The mine output of silver increased
from 2,469, 1894 ounces in 1921 to about
4,760,O0O ounces in 1922. Most of the
silver was produced from copper ore
mined in Cochise and Yavapai coun-
ties. Little silver comes from mines
near Miami. Ajo or Calumet & Ari-
iona, United Verde and United Verde
Extension mines.
Copper.
The mine output of copper increas- |
