Show GOLD RUSH. ON IN NORTHERN CANADA - Use Planes to Take Prospectors Into Field. and by Calgary. A radium "rush airplane, too is on in northern Canada. It la something new in mining advenrush has ture. The gold passed into history for the time being, at least. Discovery of $10,000,000 worth of radum has produced a novelty In mine prospecting. Hut there is a gold "rush also on on in British Columbia, hundreds of men going out into the gold districts. It has been predicted that lO.OtiO will go out from Vancouver alone. Two hundred grams of the precious radium quoted now at fM.OOO a gram are already In prospect at Great Bear lake. Judging from calculations made during preliminary surveys, according to Dr. A. II. Cameron, professor of milling at University of Alberta. This Is one third of that already produced in the whole world. Syndicating operations have corraied ail the territory in which the pitchblende Is supposed to lie as they have the known goldfields so that a rush of prospectors generally would not uet them anything. However, there has been Just as much picturesque activity among a smaller number of persons to obtain the precious in the Far Jv'c-tore. There is a possibility, in view of the extreme importance of radium to the world, that the government may take over the deposits. Hut Just now the chief problem is how to get It out there being no railway and the trail being too long and hard for carriage otherwise than by airplane. And the capacity of airplanes to carry heavy ores Is very limited. The deposits are at Da nine Point, Great Hear lake. Hugh A. Spence, mineral technologist of the Dominion department of mines at Ottawa, has examined the deposits and pronounced them very valuable. Discovery was made In the spring of 1SO0 by Gilbert Da nine and considerable work has been done in opening. At present values, ore could easily old-tim- e d Sees Chance for Another Deluge Far be It from mo te say anything derogatory to the second marriage.

It is not the marriage Itself which concerns me, for that is a matter which every widow or widower must personally decide; It is the conditions and sometimes the embarrassments which arise among those who are chronically getting married which give me subject for thought What attitude should one take to those who have departed this life, and who have gone on to other worlds!

Boone, N. ('.Ballads, native customs, culture and folklore of the great Smoky mountains may form tiie basis upon which a great Pussion Play, patterned somewhat after that of Oherammerpau, will be built. Tbe Idea, conceived by Prof. I. G. Greer of t fie Appalachian State Teachers college here, Is as yet only an Idea, hut its enthusiastic reception leads the professor to hopp that he may see It executed fully within the next decade. Coming of modern days to the mountains, with good roads, accredited schools and radios, has brought fear that the old ballads handed down for generations by mountaineers might tie lost. Mountain youth Is tinging Jazz instead of tiie songs its father sang. The ballad go back to early Kng-listimes, no one knows how far. Generations have not only preserved, but have embellished and lengthened them. The greater part of thorn are sorrowful rythmic, mournful echoes of tiie sternness of the mountaineer's life, as It was that of medieval peoples. Singers taking pari would lie natives, Greer said, for trained voices cannot Interpret the simple songs. It is explained that ballads differ from folk songs in that they are impersonal and record tiie experiences of otlieis, while tiie folk song records the Joys of tribulations of tiie singer. Professor Greers idea visions a sort of amphitheater In a mountain setting where these ballads would not only be sung, hut their long, droning stories wonld be acted out. National park service officials have expressed favor for Greers idea of creating a passion play of the mountains, and have promised support Musicians in many parts of the country have expressed interest. moves to preserve this Other quaint music have been made by Dainar Stringfield, of the University of North Carolina faculty, who Is now engaged In writing an opera of the For Spring and Summer h Should the average temperature of the entire world rise ouly a few degrees, unothcr deluge, like that described lu the Scriptures, would sweep the earth, submerging the great titles and causing a rise of more than 100 feet in the level of tiie oceans, according to a statement made before the American Meteorological society by Dr. William Humphreys of tiie United States weather bureau.
