A HAPPY and prosperous Happy New Year, to all you mountaineers. THANKS TO Santa Claus, Dad Is again In the land of sunshine and flowers that is when the sunshines and the flowers bloom, which. Is frequently the case, but not always. IT'S GOOD to be here for a change and a rest knowing, as you all do, that old "husks of humanity," such as the writer, tires very easy. AND THEN, again, a change from the near mile high altitude to sea level, makes breathing much easier thus adding add-ing to longevity, and that Is what all of us "worth-while ones" are aiming at and still better, It gives us a chance to hub-nod with loved ones some lifetime life-time and other long time residents of this section Dr. Lawrence H. and family -and other Provoltes Mrs. Miriam Firm-age, Firm-age, who took a sudden notion last -week to spend a week or two in this iavored portion of the universe, accompanied accom-panied by her daughter, Miss Louise, and the latter's friend, Miss Flo Ellert-son.

On the bus schedule ; " ; .X. i Park City, the hour set for the depar ture to that great project, was 8:20 a. m. This hour came passed; 8:30, the clock ticked on with no bus in sight, when the writer thought it time to make inquiries. in-quiries. The bus agent was consulted and the "bus rider" was informed the Dam (Boulder Dam) bus had left the hotel at 7 a. m. Investigation followed and it was learned a new bus schedule had gone into effect for January 1936 and the schedule received at Park City was a November, 1935 and the hour changed from 8:20 a. m. to 7 a. m. However, the Las Vegas agent kindly "fixed up" matters for us to visit the Dam on our return trip home If we ever come back without additional cost. MONDAY'S RIDE from Las Vegas to the "City of Angels" was an ideal one. The weather was perfect, the thirty-five thirty-five bus passengers a Jolly lot, and the several brief stops pleasant ones. ONLY ONE unpleasant and rather sad incident occurred when nearing the Journey's end. A middle-aged woman became be-came suddenly and mildly insane. She had to be forclably held in her seat by her husband and passengers. At El Monte she waa taken from the bus to a hotel after consultation with bus officials offi-cials at that city. ARRIVING AT Alhambra the welcome, as always, was .cordial and cheering and the loving greetings from the sweet little lit-tle ones Miriam and Susie, heart-warming. TUESDAY DAWNED a bit misty but cleared up, and sunshine was plentiful, with cheering prospects and weather predictions by the "weather man" for a fine day tomorrow for the always beau tiful annual rose festival at Pasadena and great football game at which many Park City fans will be present but not the writer. He will be with the 1,000,000 or more to witness the nation-famed Parade of beauty, and flowers and un usual attractiveness. MRS.

According to a report made by James T. Cunningham, manager Summit County Coun-ty E. R. A., the Federal Surplus Relief Corporation, through the Utah Emergency Emer-gency Relief Administration and the State Department of Public Welfare, has made available for distribution In Summit Sum-mit county surplus commodities during the period October 10, 1933 to October 31, 1935. The wholesale value of these commodities was $44,817.42. Commodities were distributed to relief clients upon recommendation of the Social Service Division. The commodities distributed have in no way curtailed the giving of other relief needs within the available funds. All of the flour, a large quantity of the lard, evaporated and dried milk, smoked meat, canned meat, and sugar disbursed was processed in Utah plants. All of the eggs were purchased pur-chased in Utah. Kentucky blue grass seed was received and disbursed for re-pasturizing re-pasturizing drought areas. Surplus commodities com-modities disbursed represent 20 per cent of all relief Issued and foodstuffs constituted con-stituted 90 per cent of the total distributed. dis-tributed. The cost of distribution from rail heads or storage plants to eligible persons has been accomplished at 8 per cent of the wholesale value of these commodities. The proportion of overhead distribution, the cost borne by the counties, coun-ties, was 34 per cent, while the total cost borne by the FERA was 66 per cent. Surplus commodities were personally person-ally distributed to every relief case In the county by P. J. Franklin, Summit County Commodity Disbursing Agent. The success In handling this work has been due to the perfect co-operation between be-tween the State Emergency Relief Administration, Ad-ministration, the County Commissioners and the County Relief Committee. The Park City Board of Education has cooperated co-operated to the extent of donating a school building which has been used as a storage house for all commodities received, re-ceived, as well as providing facilities for the E. R. A. personnel. Following is a list of the commodities disbursed: Apples, 4,500 pounds; beans, 1,440 pounds; beef. 36,873 pounds; butter, pounds; cereal, 2.832 pounds; cneese, 1,720 pounds; eggs, 3,540 dozen: flour, 28,861 pounds; lard, 2,760 pounds; canned milk, 3,349 y2 pounds; dry milk, 2,304 pounds; canned mutton, 936 pounds; salt pork, 30,799 pounds; smoked smok-ed pork, 30,381i2 pounds; rice, 2,112 pounds; canned veal, 1,728 pounds; dried prunes, 1,474- pounds; wool blankets, rs. d.uj- Eiwanis Meeting The regular meeting of the Park City Kiwanis Club which was held at the Community Church on Friday, December mann , ' manager of ' the United Air "Behind the gcenes wlth th united Air Lines."

AMERICAN FLAO OPENS VEIN OF GOLD ORE Two highly Important developments i in the Park City Development company were reported Tuesday by A. L. Hurley president of the company. The first is the increasing richness of the ore opened up two weeks ago on the 1300-foot level in a northeast drift from the No. 2 winze. The vein is six feet wide, and Mr. Hurley reports that for the last two shifts three feet of it has been breaking 172 ounces of silver to $4 in gold to the ton, the other three feet breaking 20 to 30 ounc-. of silver and $2 to $3 in gold. This ore body is at an intersection of the American Ameri-can Flag fissure, which strikes north 30 east, and an unidentified fissure with a strike of north 50 east. On an east-west fault in the eastern part of the property, Mr. Hurley says the company has cut four fissures, all carrying ore. Ore in the last one is said to be two to three feet wide, carrying $14 a ton in gold and 36 ounces of silver, beside substantial values in lead and zinc. This discovery, like the other, is on the 1300-foot level. "After the first of the year," said Mr. Hurley, "we expect to crowd production produc-tion to the limit of our equipment. Not only will we be shipping more ore, but It will be of better grade than any we have shipped in the past." Since the above strikes were reported by Manager Hurley, one of the objectives of the management has been reached. The fissure on the 1300 level in the eastern portion or tne mine nas ae veloped a full face of high grade ore, and reports from the mine are more encouraging en-couraging with every' shift. 430 tons of ore was shipped this week from the property. The company is also mining southwesterly south-westerly from the main shaft, where conditions are most promising for the uncovering of large ore bodies. EARLY SOLUTION SEEN FOR SILVER Hope that the silver situation could Park City Consolidated Mines company, who arrived ln Salt Lake City yesterday on a periodical tour of inspection. While the situation has been compli cated by the fall in the world price of the metal from 65 cents to below 50 cents an ounce, an early solution satisfactory sat-isfactory to all concerned will undoubtedly undoubt-edly be the result. Mr. Wade said. The uncertainty, however, Is disturbing, he added. Mr. Wade plans to spend considerable tory to mining below the water level is in progress. The mine has been unwa- tered from the 900 to the 1050 foot level where a station is now being cut. Deseret Evening News.

RESUME OF PARK CI1 MIXES GIVEN Last Saturday's Salt Lake Telegram contained a special "Resource Section and the foyowing mining items were clipped from this section for the benefit bene-fit of our readers: Silver King Coalition Mines Company Plans Extensive Schedule By W. Mont Ferry, vice president and managing director, Silver King Coalition Mines company. The Silver King Coalition Mines company com-pany of Park City, Utah, owes a part of the $488,186.80 dividends paid to stockholders stock-holders ln 1935 to the rise in value of lead and zinc and to financial resources which enabled it to conserve a part of its output until the advance in prices anticipated by the directors became effective. ef-fective. Commencing the year with a surplus in excess of three million dollars, the company had no occasion to rush Its products to market to meet payrolls and other expenses. Somewhat more than the usual tonnage of crude ore was put through the milling plant, but some of the lead and a large part of the zinc concentrates were put away on the stockpile and forwarded to the smelter only as prices were marked up. The increase in the value of the stockpile stock-pile applied also to the reserves of ore developed in the mine. In 1935, following follow-ing its established policy, the company opened new ore as the older bodies were stoped out. It is estimated that the reserves at the end of the year and carried over into 1936 are approximately approximate-ly as great in tonnage as those on hand at the beginning and their market value greater by the amount of the appreciation apprecia-tion of the contained metals. Besides insuring ample ore for future shipments, the development policy served serv-ed to stabilize employment ln the mine. The number of employes, which averaged averag-ed around 500 in 1934, was increased to 570 ln 1935. the largest number on the payroll since the predepression years. To spread the work the N R A rule of a 40-hour maximum per week was obeyed and adhered to, even after the N R A code was Invalidated by the supreme court. To compensate for the restriction ln hours, the miners on June 1st were given a blanket Increase of 25 cents per shift. This brought the pay of ma. chine men to $5.25 a day, Though new development calls for five to six miles of work per year, its continuance for many years is Insured by the extensive holdings of the company, com-pany, covering some 4500 acres of mineral-bearing territory. Dividends were paid regularly at the rate of 10 cents per share for each j quarter beginning with January and I totaling 40 cents per share for 1935. The .first payment for 1936 was provided for ! In December, when a 10-cent dividend was ordered paid in January. With this i distribution the total profits disbursed j to stockholders of Silver King Coalition and its predecessor, Silver King Mining company, will amount to $26,771,632.10.

Park Utah Sees 1936 Resumption A major event for the mining Indus try of Utah in 1936 will be the operation of the Park Utah Consolidated property Idle since the slump of lead, silver and zinc prices caused it to suspend production produc-tion ln April, 1932. The decision to re sume, which was announced in Novem ber, reflects the opinion of the direc tors that metal prices have definitely turned the corner and will continue for some time on the upgrade. An output of 150 tons of ore a day is contemplated as a beginning, to be enlarged as new ground Is opened and, possibly, new veins and ore deposits dis covered. The bulk of the ore will be extracted from the Daly-Judge property through the Anchor tunnel, it is stated, and a lesser amount from other areas transported via the Ontario drain tunnel. tun-nel. The operations will afford employment employ-ment to a large force of men and add many thousands of dollars to the volume of money put Into circulation in Utah monthly by the mines. The Park Utah group is a consolidation consolida-tion of the oldest and some of the youngest mining properties of Park City. Altogether they cover about 5000 acres and are credited with a total production produc-tion in gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper cop-per of about $175,000,000. The Park Utah is largely interested in the Park City Utah company, which, a few months ago, ln drifting from the Star of Utah tunnel, encountered a parallel vein system sys-tem on the south, which carried unusual values in gold as well as considerable silver and lead. It has been rumored that the Park Utah would make an underground connection con-nection with the Park City Utah stopes and furnish facilities for production to that company, but this Is not officially confirmed. Park City Consolidated Plans Deeper Mining and Other Developments Deeper mining ln its silver-bearing fissures Is on the program of the Park City Consolidated Mines company ln the eastern part of the Park City district for 1936. Various other Improvements have been made at the property in 1935, such as Installing a new and more powerful hoist on the surface, erecting a steel building to house the machinery, deepening the main shaft to the 900-foot level, extending ex-tending drifts to prospect and develop known fissures and building a road from Deer Valley. The outstanding development, develop-ment, however, has been the making of a connection on the 900-foot level 1450 feet long between the East Crescent and Silver fissures, thence through another 1400-foot drift to Park Utah's Ontario. The new outlet to the Ontario drain tunnel will be finished ln January, 1936. Water in the mine below the 900-foot level, which formerly was pumped to the surface, will then flow by gravity thru the tunnel to the outer world. Water below that level has only to be lifted to the 900 to give access to the ore ln the lower reaches of the veins. With new pumps installed, the mineral deposits of the Park City Consolidated can be followed fol-lowed at moderate cost to deeper levels of the mine. This simple solution of the water problem, pro-blem, which was effected through an arrangement with the Park Utah Consolidated, Con-solidated, owner of the Ontario drain, is expected to result ln a great increase Jn the volume of production from the various veins opened at higher elevations in the Park City Consolidated. In December, a station was being cut at the 1050-foot level of the property from which drifts will be sent out along the Silver fissure. LOCAL STOCKS AND METALS FRIDAY For three days bar silver has been Young Man Meets Death In Accident Word was received yesterday morning by Officer Geo. Fisher that Robert N. Jensen, of this city, had been crushed to death under an overturned truck on the icy highway leading to Duchesne, and about 29 miles east of Heber City. His parents were Immediately notified and left for Heber City where the body of their son had been taken by Sheriff Fraughton.

The sad news of Robert's sudden death cast a shadow over the whole community, commun-ity, for most of this young man's life had been spent ln our midst, and every heart was touched with sympathy for the stricken ones, from whose fireside the light had fled. We feel the emptiness of human words in times of bitter sorrow. sor-row. Yet He who "has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows' will comfort and sustain.
