One must pity the weakness Of
Isaac as strongly as he would con-
denim and contemn the conduct Of his
wife, Rebecca.
Rebecca was wickedly partial. She
loved Jacob more than she loved Esau
and she plotted to secure for her fav-
orite the blessing which was due his
brother Esau. She succeeded. but
this favorite suffered many things
and his mother must have suffered re-
morse.
Pathetic was Esau's, "Bless me al
so, my father" when he knew his
own brother had defrauded him of his
priceless heritage. But Jacob paid in
fear, august suffering and uncertain
ty. Let all fathers take warning
from the weakness Of Isaac and its
its direful consequences.

You say you are not satisfied
With what your life has been;
That often fighting, you have lost,
When you deserved to win;
But, better that it should be thus,
For, satisfied, you know,
You'd cease to struggle, and aspire,
And thus would cease to grow.
Heavy your load has been, 0 say,
Your tasks SO very great,
That victim you have been oftimes,
OF unrelenting Fate;
But loads and tasks are needful
things,
BY them we make advance;
For no great heights were e'er at
tanned
By aid of tickle Chance.

RADIUM WATER
HELD CAUSE OF
RYERS' DEATH

NEW YORK, April /. W.P)-More
than 100 patients who used "Radi-
thor, a radium water, are afflict-
ed with radium poisoning and are
in danger of the death suffered
yesterday by Eben M. Byers, Pitts
burgh steel manufacturer and
sportsman, according to DR.. Fred
erick B. Finn, a consultant.
Use Of the radium water solu-
ton was recommended to the pa
tientS by a Pittsburgh physio-ther-
apist, according to DR.. Finn, who
is director in industrial hygiene
in the College of Physicians and
Surgeons at Columbia University.
Films statement came in con-
nection with reports of q federal
and medical investigation of ByerS'
death, the second reported due to
the radium solution. Many deaths
had been attributed to radium pois-
oning, but only one previously to
poisoning contracted in this man
ner.
The first victim died last Septem-
ber. Other patients, Finn report
ed, have been SO frightened by that
death they have refused to seek
proper medical attention. The dis
ease can only be halted in its early
stages.
The number actually endangered
by the disease may reach the hun
dreds for other patients advised by
the Pittsburgh physiotherapist have
been taking the treatments.
"Radithor" has been on sale for
seven or eight years, according to
DR.. Finn. He said radium poison
ing is almost impossible to dag
nose except in advanced stages and
after consultation with an expert.
Byers attending physician, DR..
Joseph S. Wheelwright, certified his
death was due to radium poisoning.
Dr. Wheelwright will bring the
case before the academy of medi-
cine he said, to hasten investiga-
ton into the solution Byers had
been taking for several years.
Dr. Finn said the federal trade
commission had been investigating
the product for nearly two years.
As a result it was removed from
the market.

VALLEY MINING
HOLDS INTEREST

Much attention was given to I'M
perial county'S mineral resources
during the southern mineral con-
ference held Wednesday in San Di-
ego. according to Robert Hays and
Howard P. Meyer, who attended the
conference rs representatives of the
El Cehtro Chamber OF Commerce.
During the course of the meeting
speakers stressed the fact that with
in Imperial county lies the greatest
placer mining area in the world
situated in the eastern part OF the
county in the Chocolate Mountains.
According to the 81 Centre men
the speakers stated that area need
ed only development TO become a
great producer.
Hays and Meyer told of the
awakened interest in mining in I'M
perial county. Particularly, they
stated, it is the desire here to de-
yelop the non-metallics, such as
clays, Silicas, feldSpar and other SIM
liar substances.
Walter Bradley, state minerolo-
giSt, said that California is still
the leading gold-producing state,
with mines yielding annually 80
per cent of all the gold mined in
the nation, and Frank Wicks, chair
man of the southern mineral con-
ference told that one-third of all
the talcum powder used in the
United States is produced in south
ern California, whereas only one
per cent is manufactured in the
state.
Protests against imposition of an
excise tax on the production of
gold were voiced by the members
of the conference and a resolution
passed calling for an annual con-
ference in San Diego to collect and
distribute authentic and complete
information regarding the mining
resources and activities of the
southern counties of the state.
Meyer and Hays extended an in
vitation TO the southern mineral
conference to hold a meeting in Ell
Centro and it was tentatively de-
cided that the first meeting after
the midsummer months would be
held in this city. The group will
spend one day at that time investi-
eating new developments in the
Tumco-Picacho district in south
eastern Imperial county.
The El Centro men state that
the San Diego chamber favored the
local meeting and had shown fine
interest in the development of I'M
perial county's mineral resources.
The mining department of the San
Diego chamber has on many occa-
sionS found markets for Imperial
county mineral deposits and tried
in other ways to interest capital
lists in the development of mining
in this county.
