My friend's father could earn Journeymans wages as a cabinet-makand was an expert farmer. It happened that the trade to which my friend was apprenticed opened the door to a profession. He became a printer, and by that route a Journalist He found himself several times In his young manhood he tells me, very thankful that he had a trade to fall back on at which he could always earn a living. It was a good trade, too, and today is the best paid of all the crafts. Printers on newspapers and magazines earn the highest average hourly rate in Industry, 8711 cents per hour, the National Industrial Conference Board reports. Automobile workers come next with 873 cents an hour. That is more than double what union printers got In the big cities when my friend worked at the case. ft 1 er y. v f 1 V St r W 9 5 Ett-- iLii.

They were forced to suspend publication of their entire edition nearly two weeks, getting out only a small hand bill carrying news flashes.

Mrs. Sylvia Schow gave the lesson. Statistics Statisticians have compiled figures that Involve a serious indictment of the recent depression. They claim that less than the normal number of marriages were performed from 1932 to 1936, and that there were many less babies bom than normally during the period producing a shortage of one million babies. Counting a million babies that have not been born they estimate the economic loss at 27 billion dollars. Only statisticians can count those who have failed to be born. Two Sides While the great floods are fresh the people, many methods of preventing a repetition of the calamity, are being suggested. Creating great dams along the courses of the rivers to hold back the flood and let It run more slowly, to the sea, Is suggested. Whether or not such dams would! help dr hinder the flow of the streams depends upon whether or not the reservoirs are full or empty at the time of the flood. If full of water they would only make the flood more terrible. In the old days before men tiled, ditched and cleaned out the streams that were clogged with logs and brush, there were natural dams to hold back the water, but It spread much farther and remained much longer than now. Stopping up the streams might help and again It might hinder. In the old days we cried for drainage because the mosquitoes were killing off the people with chills and fever, and causing the public to pay vast sums for on Page 8) In the minds of Copper Rises 15 Cents On To Metals Market Second Markup of Cent in Week Bring High Price Since 1930 (Special to This Paper) NEW YORK, Feb. 3 (AP) Another advance of a full cent a pound In the price of copper for delivery In the United States, lifting the quotation to 15 cents, was posted late Tuesday by leading sellers In an effort to end confusion in the do- mestic market. It was the second markup of a cent in the last week, but the home price was regarded In metal circles as sti ljuit of line with the export after excited buying In London had forced the world quotation above 17 cents during Monday's recess In New York trading. A setback In London dropped the foreign price below 16 cents. Suspense over the domestic price which nominally stayed at 14 cents was prolonged until after the close of the London exchange, while American producers watched contortions of the foreign market. Following the setback, copper was reported changing hands- abroad around 15 4 cents a pound, well above the new home quotation. Bullish excitement whipped up In part by expectations of heavier world demand' for armament, as well as for industrial revival In many countries, showed signs of OnTayTofci Autopay Performed On Myron J. Briggs Wednesday Myron J. Briggs, an employee of the Utah Copper Company, Arthur Mill, died early Wednesday morning of causes unknown In an automobile enroute to work. An autopsy Is being performed by Dr. R. T. Jelllson. The body was taken to the White Chapel mortuary. Fellow workers of Mr. Briggs, Harlen J. Thompson, P. J. Flinders, 5. E.

Taylor of which Briggs was a dally passenger, reported that he ran a short distance to catch the automobile, and as be climbed In, one of the men remarked; "You must feel good this morning, Myron, to sprint like that." Mr. Briggs, flushed and breathing rather hard replied, I never felt better in my life. As Mr. Taylor started the car, he noticed Mr. Briggs Jeft foot was on the gas feeder and said In a Joking manner as he kicked Briggs foot off,Qet your foot off the gas,com-so we can go." As the man didnt ply, Mr. Taylor turned to look at him and saw that he was unconscious. He had died Instantly.
