SOIL Of STATE
HOLDS RICHES

SAN FRANCISCO, July l. U.P)-
More gold remains hidden in the
earth of California today than has
been mined in this state since gold
mining began i'll l84S, according to
Walter w. Bradley. state mineral
ogist.
Most engineers believe that at
least $2,o0o,oo0,O0o worth of gold
half the amount of gold held in
y. S. banks today-remains in Cal
ifornia S soil awaiting lucky miners,
Bradley said.
despite the unbelievably large
quantities of gold already mined in
the state for 80 years, the surface
only has been scratched, , he
pointed out.
1.-The mother lode, one of the
greatest ore bearing veins in AM
erica, ranges from a few feet to
several thousand feet in width
and extends for 100 miles through
the state.
Although mines are more than
a mile deep, most engineers be-
lieve the bottom of the vein has
not yet been reached. How many
more great mines may be developed
along this vein remains TO be seen. .

GIBBINS SEES
NO IMMEDIATE
PRICE BOOST

w. A. Gibbins, manager of Mont
gomery Wards Ell Centro store, re-
turned today from San Francisco,
where he mas been in conference
with division officials of the firm.
1t was the sense of the confer
ence, Gibbins says, that the rising
price curve will not be felt for some
time in the Montgomery Ward
stores. The company has taken ey-
cry opportunity to purchase goods
in great volume at the present low
prices and they are prepared to
give the pubic the benefit of this
saving for some time to come.
That prices of all commodities
are taking a gradual trend upward
is not tor.be doubted according to
Information from all. parts of the
country where this great company IS
stores are found. However, the in
stitution.'s policy will be to keep
prices consistent with wages SO
that present low prices will con-
tinue to obtain in the local Mont
gomery Ward store for some time
in the future.
Gibbins made the trip to San
Francisco and return by boat and
reports delightful journey.

One of the Bible citations in the

his hands toward heaven: and he
said, Lord God OF Israel there is
no God like thee, in heaven above,

Hipass health camp will open to-
morrow with so children in attend
ance. In charge of the camp is J.
c. Spencer, who has conducted the
camp SO successfully in past years
Assisting as cook and dietitian is
Mrs. A c. Ferguson of Holtville
and Mrs. Emma McKendry will
serve as public health nurse.
The cooperation of the county
public health department has been
invaluable. to the camp. DR.. War
ren Fox, county health officer. has
examined 90 children and one adult
for possible communicable diseases,
has immuni2ed four children for
diphtheria and vaccinated seven for
smallpox A number of tuberculin
skin tests have been made and fol-
low up work will be conducted
throughout the summer. It is the
idea of the health department to
get the children in condition to gain
weight at the earliest moment pos
sible and to this end camp en-
trants are being thoroughly gone
over by the nurse.
The HipaSs camp committee is
very grateful for the many dona-
tions of fruit, vegetables and other
food stuffs that have been made
by valley friends. as these have
measurably cut down operating eX-
penses In the kitchen. Persons de.
string to make such contributions
in the future may do so through
the agency of Charles Jobes or

- SISTER MARY'S
Gl y T. KITCHEN
BY SISTER MARY
NEA Service Writer

nNE of the most refreshing con-
" coctions for hot summer days
is the marvellous fruit granite
for which the South is famous.
Chilled to the nth degree without
freezing enough TO solidify, the
granite" is cooling and stimulat-
ing.
A heavy syrup is combined with
fruit juice and water and the mix
ture is half frozen to make a gran
ite. So thoroughly chilled that IL
just misses being an ice. it is liquid
enough TO drink. When the mix
frost during the freezing process,
the granite is ready to serve.
All canned and many fresh
fruits can be used singly or in
combination for these beverages.
Berry GRANTEES are seasonal and
easy to prepare. Since berries are
seldom used as the predominating
flavor in fruit punches, the berry
granite is quite unusual.
Red Raspberry Granite
One quart berries, cups gran
ulated sugar, cups water.
Wash and thoroughly drain ber-
ries. Put into a deep bowl and
cover with sugar. Mash and cover
bowl with a clean towel. Let stand
two hours. Extract all the juice
and strain through a fine wire
sieve or cheesecloth. Add water,
pouring it through the fruit pulp.
Turn into a mold and freeze. Serve
in tall glasses with sprig of fresh
mint in eeSh glass.
Any fresh fruit is used this same
way-the highly sweetened juice
diluted with water.
In using canned fruits, extra SUI
gar must be added and the fruit
and juice cooked about ten min
utes until heavy syrup is made.

it a satchel complexion of about
10x22x7. Being made in a suede
