Dream Of the Red Chamber" by
Tsao Hsueh- Chin and Kao Ngoh, Is a
largely photographed novel, whose
chief author lived in the middle of the
eighteenth century. 1t has been trans
lated and adapted from the Chinese by
Chi-Chen Wang, who belongs to the
Far East department Of the Metropoli-
tan Museum. It gives q realistic pic
ture Of Chinese life in q large family.
There Is o matriarch In the family, no
"Matriarch." She chooses two brides
for her beloved grandson, Pao-Yu, to
consider. He prefers and loves Black
Jade, but she dies of tuberculosis, and
Precious Virtue Is presented to him in
stead. The CHA family in the story is
very much like many an English or
American family.
"A Young People," by Hans Kinck, is
the first novel Of this Norwegian writer
to be translated into English. The set
century. when Norway was under the
King Of Sweden as q ruler. The lead
ing character, Sjurd Bjorntveit, needs
all of the apology that the Norwegians
are still young people. He Is cruel to
animals when he is q child and to
human beings later; honesty Is not to
be found In him at any time; he u Q
coward; he hates nearly every one. His
environment does nothing to help him,
for his neighborS are as bad as he. The
doctor calls them all "hypocrites,
swindlers, scoundrels, incendiaries." The
small community where all these people
live is perhaps like many communities
in every country, but it is certainly not
typical Of Norway.

 FCR PROSPECTOR
CONTINUATION OF COLLEGE STORIES ON MINING IN
 ALASKA
(The story continues)


 Larry took piece of cardboard and with his pocket knife cut a gently curving line through the cardboard to represent the fault lne-then by sliding one side of the cardboard along the Assure to simulate the faulting, a series of lenticular openings, alternating with constructions, developed.
 Jack picked up the cardboard and experimented by sliding one half to varying positions against the remaining half.
 That certainly duplicates our conditions here Larry; if your theory is correct we should dirve through the pinched area and then the vein should regain it's or iginal width. Here is another way of looking at tiff this fault had moved down the dip of the vein, rather than along the strike, we would then encounter a series of pinches and sWells when we start ed to sink on the vein I remember a shaft sinking job which I work ed on down in the Couer d Alene district When we first started that shaft we had a good vein of galena but with depth it pinched down to a seam and we all believed that the mine was finished. How ever, they kept right ahead with the sinking operations and about 100 feet farther down the shaft, that seam began to widen out and in a few rounds the entire shaft bottom was in rich ore.
 well Larry I don't know wheth- CT it was your theory or the hot lunch which makes me feel en- couraged, anyway, let's get back in the mine and finish that round this afternoon.
 Right you are Jack, my motto on this prospect is Never give up until we have put in another round"
 Will Larry and Jack strike good ore on ahead or will their vein pinch out? Watch for the next in stallment.
