THE "NEW" YEAR.

The New Year will be a repe- tition of old experiences, re- enforcement of old laws, a re- affirmation of another common saying which is that human nature changes little and hum an relationships are much the same today as they were when the first philosophical writer first set his chisel to work on the stone tablets whereon were written the observations and records of that far-off time when the human race first be, gan to discover the antiquity of the planet and the unswer- ing laws that govern it.
 We have entered upon the New Year, to be sure, but we shall be responsive to the same forces as heretofore. We will be rewarded as we put our selves into harmony with di- vine statutes and punished as we disregard them. There are but two lamps by which our feet may be guided, those of experience and conscience. If we profit by one and hearken to the other, we shall avoid many of the pitfalls that lie ahead; the same old pitfalls, in the same old places and hid- den in the same old manner.
 If we play the game in accord with the rules laid down by that "still, small voice within" we shall escape the old retri- buttons for the same old errors that men and women have been making for thousands of years.

UNITED STATES GREATEST
 MINERAL CONSUMER

Not only is the United States the greatest producer of min eral products of any country in the world, but it is also the greatest consumer, says the Wallace (Idaho) Press Times Mining Review in commenting on a recent statement of l.. s. Gates, vice president of the Utah Copper company, where in he said that the per capita consumption of metals in this country averaged 38 pounds in 1926. The actual consumpt- ion was 15 pounds of copper, 13 pounds of lead, and 10 pounds of zinc for each per son in the country.
 We used more than double the amount of copper con sumed by other leading nat ions, the journal continues, with relative proportions of zinc and lead. Further devel- opment of home markets, ex- portation of surplus minerals, necessity for an equitable bas- is of taxation, both state and national, are matters of deep importance to the mining in dustry.

Every time you speak a good word for your town you speak two for yourself, for the home town booster is. always respect ed by home lovers.
 It's an easy thing to make nasty remark about your home town, but it is difficult to stop that remark from travelling af- ter it has once been uttered. The pessimist, however, does not think of this, and, besides,
Hyder weekly herald., 1928-01-07

the members of that breed are usually not considerate.
 Looking at some of the spec imens hereabouts, it seems to us that the chronic pessimist is never more happy than when he is elamming his home town; the town that feeds and usual ly clothes him we'll and gives him as many opportunities for advancement as would oth- towns of the same class. But it appears that to him nothing is right. None of the towns cit lzens possess the ability to per form civic duties in the proper manner, altho other persons are unable to see the glaring ing defects and shortcomings that are so apparent to him. The businessmen of the town are no business men at all and are crooks and swindlers in the bargain. The town has no fu- ture and the mines are all shall low and the ore don't go down. And so on, ad infinitum.
 Pessimism is worse than rheu- matism. The one puts a few joints out of working order, but he other is a drag to the mind, the body and the soul

The very aspect of them suggests soul shrouded in gloom and bitter with the acrimony of a warped view point. The pessimist is never happy, never cheerful. The optimist is seldom any other way than happy and cheerful. It is pleasure to meet the optimist, but the pessimist is bore to everyone, save, perhaps, one of his own kind.
 It is possible to be either, but never both.
