That the Pope has broken a precedent of more
than sixty years in order to spend time in the
hills is of more than merely historical ecclesias

their vacations, he has become of the migrant

leave the Vatican he has passed the first night
outside its palace and grounds since he entered its
gates as Pope ga lover of the mountains and
mountain climber in his earlier life he must have
joy of the freedom of the hills which have stood
upon his Vatican horizon the Campagna. The
Papal Palace to which he has gone among the
Alban Hills occupies the site of Alba Tonga found
ed, according to the legend by Ascanius, son of
Aeneas, and the birthplace of Romulus and Remus.
The holiday originally a holy day, con-
secrated day. BY enterting upon one for himself,
the Pope may be said to have asked blessing
upon all who, under our social order, have more
than the one brief holiday of the mill-grl of
'Pppa Passes" For she had but day of
tion and her prayer that she might not
'squander one wavelet" of her twelve hours treas

or gifts above measure. The holiday, the vacation,
the new leisure, may after all be the solution Of
some of our difficult social problems.
President Butler in his annual report of ten
years ago said that the right balance between work
and leisure, the development of those wants which
increase the value of work, and of those tastes
which increase the value of leisure, at the
bottom of the problem of education It is now
becoming generally recognized that they at the
bottom of all our problems of living our individual
lives and doing the right thing by our neighbors

vacation, hat those duties include periods of
temptation. Perhaps out of them will a

ROBOTS SET TO RECORD COSMIC RAYS.

Robots that will operate without attention for
five years and during that time will make con-
tinuous record OF the intensity of cosmic rays have
been constructed and now being placed in posi-
ton in various parts of the world This worldwide
checkup is part of fiye-year investigation to be
carried on under the direction of Dr. Arthur H
Compton of the University of Chicago who designed
the robot The investigation is being sponsored by
the Carnegie Institution Of Washington
The first of these machines has been installed
On the top of Mt Evans in Colorado by group
Of Massachusetts Institute of Technology students
working under the direction of Prof Ralph d
Bennett. The cosmic ray robot which they trans
ported to a height of 14l20 feet, is the largest
coSmic ray detector ever built and weighs 5000
pounds. 1t consists of large sphere of lead in
a chamber in the center of which is placed the

Mutual Savings Banks. noting a peak in the
number of depositors since the system started more
than a century ago a important item than
the total of deposits CONSTITUTES this meaning the
average man is financially better off, and
as indicating the Awill to save"
Not only is this shown by the increase in number
of depositors but as we'll also by the gain of about
a billion dollars in deposits in all banks during the
first half of 1884 Thrift has not been made
obsolescent by the recovery we have had SO far;
possibly it will be. The longer question
as some bankers view it. is to keep the base OF
earning power beneath all these saved and variousy
invested dollars adequately intact. This requires

Weather for the preceding "a
hours remained the same, cloudy

Two important mining deals re-
corded during the day were the

Gold Mining Expands.
anchorage Times.

Anchorage bankers report gold pouring in here
from placer and quartz mines in all in way
to make the sleepiest open their eyes.
Despite the handicaps due to the coastal ship
ping strike this summer, and dry and other
barriers the volume of gold, estimated in weight
lis larger than last year
This is great news. Alaska actually is stepping
up her gold production. The price of gold
has been a wonderful stimulus.
Nimble minded men with little vision and fore
sight got into the game early. Appreciation of the
opportunity and the urge to do have carried them
forward
| Gold mining offers greater inducements today
than any time in history. When the price was
advanced several months ago from $2O67 an ounce
to $35 some thought it only temporary. But the
price continues and if it changes at all from all
indications, it will go higher.
The gold miner has a tremendous advantage
with his product. 1t not only is selling for higher
price but its purchasing power remains exceptionally
high by virtue of the fact other commodities are
selling for Just about what they were before the
price OF gold advanced. The effort of the MIRA
to lit prices has not resulted in any extraordinary
advance in cost Of commodities Hence gold gives
the possessor of it unprecedented advantage
There are many virgin gold properties in the
Anchorage area and elsewhere in Alaska deserving
the attention of sincere, hard working and cour-
ageous men. Right in the Willow are many
fine prospects that should be opened. The habits
of the occurrences there warrant much more
work than is under way in the area The same
may be said OF other gold properties in the vast
region tributary to this CITY,
What were unavoidable properties prior to this
year are now brought into range of profitable
Operation by reason of the higher price of gold
Uncle Sam is giving the gold miner the greatest
Christmas gift of all time.
Now is the time to outfit-get the pick and
lshovel and step right up and share the gifts that
Santa Claus has hung on the Christmas tree

BAR THE BAR!

'No matter what laws may be made to cripple
the beverage industries of our present times they
cannot. and will not, be observed by those manag-
ing those industries, and the people, as whole,
will not interfere"
This interesting contribution to the literature Of
law and order was once made by the Brewers
Journal 1t named among its official appointments
the United States Brewers Association. To ilumine
its view of business it also said:
"The producer and distributor, in order to main
tain the status of his respective industry, simply
could not observe the laws which would cripple
him."
Such an Indifference to law voiced in behalf OF
the liquor traffic is one of those things hard to
believe until one actually sees it. The quotations
may be found in the files of the Brewers Journal
May /, 1910. The date is old, the sentiment per-
SiStS.
LIQUOR in fact seeks always to make its own
law Liquor bOotlegged its way through the pro-
hibtion era, tossed prohibition out of the window,
and now is breaking over the feebler attempts to
bind it again.
Chicago for instance, lets the old barroom come
back. but pousy asks that the view of its interior
be kept unobstructed. Even that is too much for
saloon keepers, who start to screen and shut
ter the drinking as of old. Chicago also, with mo2I
rgor forbids liquor to be sold or given away from
l a. M to D. m. Whereupon at 4 a. a Chicago
alderman, who is also saloon keeper shoots q
policeman who wants to join the party at his place.
Some restraints of merit are being designed hete
and there for the business of liquor. The Chicago
shooting Immediately led the Illinois senate to vote
that mayors and aldermen should have no financial
interest in its retail sale One of the best checks
is the divorcing of the brewers from ownership or
control OF saloons. The brewery saloon used to
be one of the worst. It's object was to push the
sale Of its masters beer; how, it has been often
charged made no difference. AS a curb on the
political influence of liquor, campaign contributors
by brewers, dstillers and saloon keepers are for
hidden in legislation introduced in some states.
All such are minor benefits. In systems of liquor
control nothing short of barring the baToom is
going to get down toward the roots of danger The
saloon is law to itself. The Brewers Journal let
the public in on the facts when it said the liquor
traffic would not observe the law. Of liquors va
rious offenders against the law, the saloon is the
most fragrant. When repeal being urged, it
was promised that the saloon would not come back.
Also it was argued that respect for law would I'M
prove If America really values respect for law, 1t
should see to it that the saloon doesn't come back

JAIL DRUNKEN DRIVERS

The swftest means to check the appalling num-
bers of automobile accidents in North Carolina Is
to require every driver to submit to rigid test 81
his ability and his eyesight Incontrovertable sta
tistics show that accidents have waned in states
which require drivers licenses.
But in the meantime, while are trying TO
achieve this end the problem of drunken drivers
confronts us with sickening force. Weekend acct
dents, many of them serious, crowd the front
pages of our Monday papers, and on the police
blotters if you care to look are scores of names
beside which is written driving while drunk"
Cleveland's judge of the recorders court has
been giving 500 fines to drunken drivers, and we
are happy to report that the fine is so heavy that
many of them failing to pay it, have been jailed

mountain area or along the coast
All of the counties that rank low in hometown
ership ratios are either counties that have high
ratios of farm tenancy counties with large ur-
ban populations, or both. The low ratios in the
main are found in the cash crop or farm tenant
belt of the state. The city counties are we'll down
the list but not at the bottom.
The low rank of CASTOR is due to her textile
development where few workers own their homes.
In fact CASTOR county ranks last in per cent OF
white families who live in homes which they OWL
followed closely by Scotland and Greene, with
their high farm tenant rates.
Mitchell county, where there are very few nc
eroes leads in negro home ownership with eighty
nine per cent of her negro families living in homes
which they own 1t appears that negroes find it
very difficult to rise into home ownership in Greene
county where only 8.5 per cent of all negro fan
lilies live in homes of their own. Ratios are also
very low in Scotland. Edgecombe, Hoke, Wilson,
Pitt6 Nash. Lenor. Cleveland, and other cotton
and tobacco counties. As general rule the ratio
of negro home ownership is inversely in proper
ton to the density of the negro population. In
those counties that have large negro ratios, rela-
lively few negroes rise into home ownership, either
on the farm or in town. The chances are better in
the city than on the farm and muhc better in small
towns and suburbs than in any other environment.
