FREE CONSCIENCE IS BEST
Harvey S. Firestone, on his 59th birthday anniver
sary, said the way to be well is to be happy. Many will
agree that the way to be happy is to be well. But best of
all is a happy mental state, free from troubled conscience.
It is as necessary to happiness as easement from physi
cal pain.
Those who complain about hard times in the midst of
plenty will do well to examine the mileage on their speedo
meters.
What this country wants along with tax reduction is
a plan or two to keep taxes from ever getting that high
again.
To help boost Seward is more of a privilege than an
obligation.
A wise candidate who seeks the office will make it
hide-and-go-seek.
With radio, television and all other modern inven
tions, the humble taxpayer wants a contraption by which
he can sit in his home and watch the political machines.

One of the wholesome things about civilization is that
most of us forget a lot of the questionable stories’we hear.

MONTE VISTA, Colo., Jan. 4. (£>)—
—At Jasper, 32 miles southwest of
Monte Vista, the Marion Mining &
Milling Company has bben steadily
developing its property on Cornwall
mountain since last spring and early
this fall encountered an ore shoot
which has proven to be immense in
size and well mineralized its entire
length.
For some time the miners have been
blocking out this body of ore with
numerous cross cuts and a drift along
its side of 132 feet which does not) yet
disclose the end of the ore. Tests
from all parts of the ore body which
is from two to 12 feet in width show
an average value of about $50 in gold,
silver, and lead to the ton. As soon
as the drift reaches the end of the ore
shoot and arrangements can be made,
shipments will be begun and con
tinued indefinitely.
Dali Island, near Ketchikan, is be
ing brought into prominence by the
operations of the Pacific Coast Co.,
which is building a dock and build
ings there to take out and ship cement

The beginning of the 61st year of

of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, with the help of
15,000 people
A thrilling tale of the time when bad men were at

perfectly fit each character
“THE TERROR”
