United States Smelting Kenning and Mining com-pany, Utah Copper company and Combined Metals Reduction com-pany These companies during past years have made contribution? to the mining Industry, which, it not in practice now, the mining In dustry of the state would uudouh edly be comparatively smaller The position that Salt Lake val-ley has attained as the leading s mining and smelting center In the world can be attributed to a large extent by the research carried on by the smelting companies and to the mineral producing companies operating in this area. The position of Salt Lake City as a center of metallurgical reserch was strengthened with the estab-lishment of the metallurgical di-vision of the United States llureau of Mines with the completion In 1U40 of a new building adjacent to the University or Utah campus. This building is one or the most complete metallurgical laboratories In the world. It whs built at a cost of $:I50,000 and houses $250,0011 worth of scielitittc engineering equipment. The continued growth of the min-ing Industry of Utah depends on continually finding new ore and im-proved methods of treating it. This applies not only to the ores of metals which now constitute our greatest source of production but to deposits of metals not now worked. were Two reported from Rich and Sanpete counties.

O XMAS MAILING INFORMATION FOR OVERSEAS MAIL Save strong string and box material and start to plan shop-- i puiL', Postmaster General Frank C. Walke r advises Americans in announcing the rules for mailing of Christmas gifts for Army and Navy personnel overseas. This year the Christmas mail-ing period for both Army and Navy overseas forces is the same, Si ptember 15 to October 15. Af-ter October 15 no rift oarcel may be mailed to a soldier without the presentation of a written re quest from him. The great demands upon ship-ping and the need for giving preference to arms, munitions, medicine and food is the prime reason for the early mailing date. Moreover, gift parcels must tra-- i vel great distances to reach Army and Navy personnel who are lo-cated at remote points, and fre-quently tne transfer of large numbers to new stations necessi-tates forwarding of the packages and additional time is required. The response that our people made last year during the over- - seas mailing period demonstrat-ed that they will cooperate in any measure designed for the welfare of our armed forces per-sonnel, Mr. Walker said. 'It is not easy to concentrate on Christ-mas gifts in the midst of warm weather here at home but our people recognized the need, and because they want the men and women who are absent from their homes to know that they are not forgotten at Christmas they took pains to assure prompt delivery of Christmas gifts. 'I know that our people will observe the overseas mailing schedule once more this year but I do wish to stress this fact: More care must be taken in wrapping and packing parcels securely and addressing them clearly and cor-rectly. 'I am sorry that anyone ever mentioned that the size of a shoe box is the approximate limit for packages intended for gift mail-ings overseas. Unhappily many people became convinced that a shoe box is the best possible con-tainer. We must be mindful that these gifts must travel far. with shipping space crowded. If the Rifts are to be protected in tran-sit they must be packed in boxes made of metal, wood, solid fiber-boar- d, or strong double-face- d corrugated fiberboard, reinforced with strong summed paper tape or tied with strong twine. If both tape and strong twine are used, so much the better. If the outer wrapper is crushed and this is likely to happen the loss of contents may be prevent-ed if fiberboard boxes are wrap-ped in heavy paper. 'We are unable to deliver many parcels which families and friends sent to men and women overseas last year because they were crushed in transit and the gift and the outside wrapper be-came separated. We would have been able to make delivery if the address had been shown on the inside wrapper. We advise that everyone write the address of the sender andaddressee in-side the package as well as out-side. Gifts enclosed in glass should be substantially packed to avoid breakage. Sharp instruments, such as razors and knives must have their edges and points pro-tected so that they cannot cut through the coverings and injure postal personnel or damage other packages. Relatives and friends who know that the personnel in the armed services to whom they plan to send gifts are at far dis-tant points should begin to mail their packages on the opening day September 15 of the mailing period. Last year late mailings, causing concentration of great numbers of packages in the final days of the mailing period, threatened to defeat the program. It is stressed that suc-cess can be assured, with un-limited personnel and facilities available, only if the public giv-es full cooperation through prompt mailings of the overseas gift parcels from the opening of the mailing peroiod. Christmas gifts mean much to our people overseas. Because strong twine, heavy paper and boxes and fiberboard will prove of real help in making delivery of gifts pissible I urge those at home to begin saving these ma-terials now. As time goes on they are going to become even more scarce than they are now.' Among the more important rules for Christmas mailings to the armed forces overseas are the following: The parcel must not exceed five pounds, and must not be more than 15 inches in' length or 36 inches in length and girth combined. It should be marked Christmas parcel' so that it may be given special attention to as-sure its arrival before Decem-ber 25. Not more than one parcel may be mailed in any one week to the same member of the armed forces by or in behalf of the same mailer. When combination packages are made up of such items as miscellaneous toilet articles, hard candjes, soaps, etc., the contents should, be tightly packed so that they will not become loosened in transit and damage the con-tents or the cover. Hard candies, nuts, carmels (including those covered with chocolate), cookies, fruit cake, and chocolate bars in-dividually wrapped in waxed paper. should be enclosed in in-ner boxes of wood, metal, or cardboard. Perishable goods, such as fruits and vegetables that may spoil, are prohibited. Intoxicants, in-flammable materials such as matches or lighter fluids, poisons, and anything that may damage other mail also are prohibited.
