The thinker and only the thinker,
And not the coming and gone,
Who never takes time for thinking,
And is late for the victory song.
Take time to do some thinking
On the things that are honest and
true,
And make this old world better
In all that you say and do.
Never be in such a hurry
That you never stop to think.
1t may bring to you disaster,
Whan you stand upon the brink.
Thinking will lead to knowledge,
In the end this will rule the world.
The things that are honest, pure, love-
ly and good;
Let Gods banner of love be unfurled.
Thinking the noble makes manhood;
How deep in this mighty well.
Keep it pure with your faith in Jesus,
And His love for all you can tell.
Think of home and of Heaven,
AS we near that shining shore.
Thinking about us and our coming,
Our loved ones gone before.

Big Copper Men
Plan Increasing
Output Of Mines

NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-(AP)-
Some of the larger domestic copper
producers are considering plans for
increasing output, it was learned II
trade quarters today.
An improved statistican position.
resulting from rising domestic con-
sumption and control over produc-
ton, was said to have led to def
mite decision to expand in sections
of the industry which had been op-
Grating at a rate well under ca
pacity.
One of the companies mentioned
as likely to raise it's present output
was Kennecott Copper Company.
Officials admitted such plans were
in view but concerning the extent
of the proposed production boost
no information was available.
Domestic companies are not
bound by any pact regulating pro-
duction such as governs the activi-
ties of foreign companies. Under
an agreement reached few weeks
ago, foreign producers are now
turning out metal on a somewhat
larger scale than was provided un-
der terms of a curtailment program
adopted early in 1885 This rise
was voted because of a largely in.
creased demand.
The domestic movement of cop
per has been slower this month in
comparison with the record tonnage
sold in July, but there have been
flashes Of active buying, accom-
panied by rumors of another ad-
vance in the price.
Copper was boosted one-fourth
cent to 8 and three-fourths cents a
pound in the course of a buying
wave during the last half of July
Signs of renewed activity in the
market last week following a lull
during the early part of August
were followed by reports certain
important producing interests were
considering an advance to the 10
