Then she wrapped a pale greep afghan About her for a gown, She changed her mood and don-ned a smile And talked Dame Winter down! She took a cloud-lac- e doily And made herself a hat; She shaped two lips into a bud, Saying, "What do you think of that?" She whirled a rainbow scarf about Her shoulders just for fun, "I'm going to be a debutante Whether wars are lost or won!' "For I'm coming out in April As Spring Maids have done be-fore, I'm one luxury that will not be Restricted by the war!" .

I figure a man's never too old to be a good Ameri-can" Next week the Mutual Broad-casting system will continue the story of copper in a broadcast from the Revere Copper and Brass company plant at Chicago, where the army and navy are getting artillery shells and car-tridges . and Pacific. In the days of the California "Gold Rush," there was lively interest in the possi-bility. A definite step in the di-rection of such a waterway is a treaty recently entered into by the governments of Nicaragua and Costa Rica for the canaliza-tion of the San Juan. This would Nicaragua is the largest of the Central American republics. Its territory, about that of Wisconsin, forms an isosceles triangle wedg-ed into the middle of Central America, with the Pacific as the western boundary and the Atlan-tic, the Caribbean Sea, as the eastern. From the northwest to south-east the extension of the Sierra Madre mountain system cuts through Nicaragua, dividing it into two ports which have, as yet, little access to each other. The smaller of these, the narrow Pacific coast region, is about a quarter of the country's total area of 57,000 square miles. But here is most of the agriculture of the nation, and nearly half its population of about a million and open the way for navigation of snips of medium size from the Atlantic to Lake Nicaragua and speed the development of the whole region. Columbus was the first white man to set eyes on Nicaragua. In September of "1502, according to the story, nearing the Central American coast-o- his last voy-age, he was overtaken by a storm. Finding safety in, an unknown harbor, so great was his relief that he called the jutting point of land 'Gracias a Pios," (Thanks Be to God). So the north-easter- n corner of Nicaragua got its name. Conquest did not follow close on the heels of discovery, how-ever. It was not until after Bal-boa discovered the Pacific and claimed it all in the name of the Spanish king that there was be-gun a period of ? conquest and Spanish rule, to 1 last for three years beyond three centuries. Movements toward independence there were, but the country's de-velopment into a free nation was delayed by attempts of various foreign powers to administer the affairs of the Nicaraguans. At last, rid of foreign interference, Nicaragua was to njoy a period of tranquility which has been marked by a steady advance in the political and economic life of the, nation. , ,: In the world-mark- et of today Nicaragua can offer gold, coffee, bananas, lumber, j cotton, live stock hides and sugar. To supply its own needs, the country re-quires from other nations, cotton goods, machinery, tools, iron and steel products, oil, chemicals, drugs, automobiles and trucks.

Almost completiVy destroyed by earthquake and fire in 1931, the city has risen again, more modern but fully as beautiful as of old. The larger eastern section of the triangle is for the most part mountainous. Most of the large river3 emptying into the Atlantic rise in the central Cor-dillera region. The Rio Grande de Matagalpa flows, eastward through a large gap in the moun-tains, and in its valleys are most of the cattle ranches of the coun-try. Lying placidly between moun-tains and coasts are the two fresh water lakes for which Nicaragua is famous. Into them empty the mountain streams of the western slopes. The smaller f these is Lake Managua, 38 miles long and 10 to 16 miles in width. The oth-er, Lake Nicaragua, is an ellipti-cal body of water 90 miles long and 39 miles at its widest. It is about 135 feet above sea level and has always been an import-ant factor in the transportation of the country. Davila, the first Spanish conqueror, called it "Freshwater Sea." From Lake Nicaragua, on its way to the At-lantic, flows the San Juan River. Together, these lakes cover near-ly 3,500 square miles. These lakes and the San Juan river long have been discussed as possible routes of a second canal linking Atlantic MIm Shirley Anderson Is Bridt of March 20 Mr. and Mrs. John W.

We're at war. I figured that if I could come aek.fto work it would free soma 7 young fellow (Continued from page one) mined, the blasting and trans-portation. Asked about the weather as a factor to be considered in open-p- it mine production, Mr. Buch-man answered: , "The past winter has been one of the hardest in many years. We have had as much as 12 in-ches of snow in a single fall and we have 100 miles of track to clean off to keep the ore coming off the hill." Asked how cold it gets at the mine in the winter, Mr. Buch-man replied: "We get long stretches of weather close to the zero mark and I'd like to take this oppor-tunity to say that our boys have done a wonderful job this winter old, would be 20 in May. He works on the track gang, "We keep the tracks close to the sho-vels so the cars can be loaded after the ore has been blasted free." Kenneth said he had work-ed a year and a half all together and that he planned" to join the aviation corps if he passes the examination. Kenneth's uncle, John Dewey Knudsen, a locomotive engineer at Bingham Canyon, said he had worked for the company 21 years, including the time he was away in France as an artillery man in the 80th division in the first World war. The head of the family, John K. Knudsen, who is back at work working through the snow and ice to handle the greatest ton-nage of ore in any winter in our history." The commentator recalled a remark of Mr. Moffat's, that Utah Copper company mine worked 364 days last year. "Mr. Moffat forgot to add, and I'm going to that this was done without the loss of a single work-ing hour because of friction be-tween labor and management. Now the reason for that splendid achievement is not hard to find. I saw it this morning in the neat, substantial homes where the miners live. I saw it in their cars and healthy, well-dresse- d child-ren and in the general feeling of fairplay that exists here between management and workers. "Striking evidence of this fact is seen in the large number of fathers and sons working at the mine. 21 per cent of all the em-ployees fall in that category. "So now I want you to meet one of these families, the Knud-sens- .' There are three generations of Knudsens at work at Bingham Canyon. First we'll meet grand-son, Kenneth Poulsen."
