AN EASIER WAY :. Limited amount of diamond dirllâ€" Ing recently completed on the property gave encouraging results. Several of the holés were put down off the line of strike, but those correctly spotted showed good ore intersections. Hole No. 1 returned $11.55 across 3 feet at depth of 205 feet: hole No. 3 gave $25.8G across 6‘ feet at depth of 61 feet, $7.70 across 13 feet at 87 feet, and $11.55 across 9 feet at 106 feet: J W. Rudhard, president of Amca Mines, Garrison Township, seventeen miles from Ramore, Northern Ontario, advises that a financing deal has been completed whereby $170,000 will be available for completion of lunderâ€" ground development work and for inâ€" stallation of a cyanide plant in the mill. First payment of $10,000 is to be made Dec. 15, with monthly payments of $10,000 thereafter. Financing Arranged for AMCA Mine Near Ramore Representatives J. E. SULLIVAN P. A. MACAULAY wW. M. RITCHIE Young Men to Protect their Families Occupation HEAD OFFICE Name ... Address Dividends earned may be used to reduce premium payments, or allowed to accumulate. In the latter case the cash payments or the monthly income will be increased over the guaranteed figures. It will be to your advantage to fill in and mail the coupon for complete information about this policy at your age. THE MUTUAL LIFE ASSURANCE CO. OF CANADA, WATERLOO, ONT. Or the company will pay $120.00 in cash for each $1,000 and continue the policy for its full face yalue to be paid to your beneficiary at your death. Dividends also continue during this period. For example, if you are age 30 the annual premium to provide $2,000 of protection with the option of taking a pension of $10 monthly for yourself at age 60 is only $53.16. For each additional $1,000 of protection and $5 monthly pension the annual premium is only $26.53. There are no premium payments after age 60. The pension is payable throughout your lifetime. It is guaranteed for 10 years and in case of your death during that period the balance will be paid to your beneficiary. At age 60 should you want to surrender your policy for its cash value you will receive $770.00 plus dividends for each $1,000. This plan of life insurance has been devised for the younger man who wants to provide adequate protection for his family during the years when children are growing up, and also create a fund that will guarantee a monthly income for himself after age 60. Here is the "Security at 60" Plan for Young Men I am interested in your "Security at 60" Plan. FRED STOCKâ€"Branch Manager = WATERLOO, ONTARIO "Owned by the Policyholders" While average grade indicated by surface sampling and diamond drilling is better than $12 per ton, Mr. Rudhard feels that a more conservative estimate would be about $10 per ton. The vertical ore formation on the bottom of the quarry and in cross trenches the following results: Eighteen samples over a width of 6.2 feet averâ€" aged $13.30; 14 samples over a width of 6.7 feet averaged $10.15; 6 samples over a width of 7.3 feet averaged $11.20, and 9 samples over width of 7 feet averâ€" aged $16.75. These results checked closely with previous sampling. Results of this drilling and sampling would indicate that there is approxiâ€" mately 40,000 tons of ore above the 200â€" foot level, length being 300 feet and average width 8 feet. This is not exâ€" act or positive ore tennage, which can only be determined after underground work now planned is completed. hole No. 5 gave intersections averaging $7.35 across total width of 12 feet. Date of Birth 7. We do not know the present state of these embarrassed but, we hope, happy young people. The presumption is that their friends, having been unofficsially informed that they are husband and wife, have not recalled any of their gifts under the mistaken notion that perhaps they have been living in sin. Personally we wish them well and hope sons which we can imagine to have prompted the couple of whom we are speaking to desire a public ceremony. Perhaps when they married in secret they felt that they could not have had the approval of their parents. Maybe they were too young. Then the time came when circumstances were more propiticus. People would think that they had been engaged long enough. Their friends would naturally desire an cpportunity of rallying round them to express, in a tangible way, their good wishes. Showers are as much to expected when people set up housekeepâ€" ing together as they are in April. i Already Married i Wondering and dismayed, the guests separated, one of them at least rather speculating as to what he would do with the wedding garments which with some difficulty he had assembled and for which there seemed to be no immediate use. The bridegroom appeared white and tightâ€"lipped. The bride was supâ€" posed to have left town to recover. By. degrees the story emerged. The main inâ€" iccntrovertible fact was that the clergyâ€" man had refused to perform the cereâ€" ?mcny for a reason which would deter any other clergyman who might have _been appealed to im the= emergency. His reason was plain enough. The bride and bridegroom had already been marâ€" ried and, even though they had been married to each other, the law forbade that ary subsequent ceremony should take plaize. We do not know why this is the law, unless it might be found in the fact that it is illegal to marry peoâ€" ple already married. It is just as illegal as if they had been married to other people, whom they had not divorced, and who continued to survive. Once Is Enough In Canada a marriage can be perâ€" fc¢rmed only by a clergyman. No Justice of the Peace or other layman is emâ€" powered to act, which we think is a deâ€" fect in our system, and we are aware that many ‘clergymen agree with us. Where the exclusive civil ceremony is legal, it is also legal for the married people to have a later church ceremony. It is also not uncommon, we believe, for people of different religious beliefs to be married first by a Protestant clergyman, and then to have his unâ€" sanctified offices regularized by a Catholic priest. There are several reaâ€" No Wedding Belis Well, then, a couple of months ago or less preparations were made for one of those weddings whose details fill the Rev. Dr. Dickson with loathing. People assembled from far and near. A bridesmaid, we believe, was imported from Kentucky. A young man we know bought a special suit for the occasion. Gifts flowed in, for both the girl and the boy were popular and their friends had had plenty of warning of their intentions. The eventful evening arâ€" rived, far more eventful indeed than anybody had expected, and the guests were gathering at the church. The bridegroom was in conference with the clergyman in a private room. Then the bride was summoned. Soon her father entered the secret conclave, and preâ€" sently the news filtered out that there would be ro wedding. The bride was presumed to have had some kind of collapse. ‘ | (By J. V. McAree in Globe and Mail) Scome wise newspapermen we know refuse to accept stories in confidence. They have learned the danger of promâ€" ising not to publish something when ’they may learn it from another source, and thus find themselves bound by a pledgo. Of course, when that happens, they go ahead and write the story even if they run the risk of having their good faith doubted. For instance, severâ€" al weeks ago a friend told us about a strangely pcostponed wedding. He thought it might make an interesting story for us a couule of years hencte, and asked us not to write anything it until then, because he was a friend of one of the principals, who knew he was a friend of ours, and would naturally guess that he had told us if the thing appeared in our column. But the other night we heard the same story from a different source; so we have no compunction about repeating it and not so much breaking a promise as voiding an injunttion. We give ro hint as to the people involved. Those who know the story already will not have their knowledge added to, and so we are not spreading a scandal, if scanâ€" dal it can be called, though we do not think anybody has been disgraced. Odd Reason for Not Holding the Wedding Toronto Probably the Only Place This Could Happen. The cage hoist is installed in a room blasted out of the rock, 40 feet by 37 feet by 25 feet, and its total weight with electrical equipment is 116 tons. The drum is single with a division in the centre; the diameter is 10 feet and the The 16th level main haulageway beâ€" tween No. 3 and No. 6 shaft is 4600 feet long, cornected by drifting 12 feet wide and nine feet high for the most part. The haulageway is single tracked for the locomotive and lighted all the way. Piping includes a twoâ€"foot venâ€" tilation duct with suction fans,. a 10â€" inch compressed air line, a 3â€"inch water line ard a lâ€"inch drinking water line. No. shaft is natural downcast now but a fan will be installed giving forced ventilation of 65,000 feet per minute. Muck hoisted up No. 6 shaft will be loaded from the ore and waste bins into 4â€"ton Granby type cars ready for the trolley locomotive haul to No. 3 shaft. Rated tramming capacity is 100 tons per hour with the locomotive pulling six cars at a speed of 12 miles per hour. The truck gauge is 24 inches ard the rails are 60 pounds by weight. Loading hoppers operated by air allow two cars to be loaded at a time. The 36 by 54â€" inch crusher at the 12th tevel at present will be moved to the 29th level and a similar sized crusher on the eighth at present will go to the 16th level: No. 3 shaft is now being deepened to 130 feet below the 18th level. A typical shift in the shaft would see twelve Rand Nâ€"82 pligger machines workirg with eighteen men and a shift boss. Three other men, would ‘be emâ€" ployed on deck work with two timberâ€" men. Including bonus the shaft men earn $8 to $9 per shift. Timbering would be carried out every three rounds, that is three days, with sets at 6â€"foot intervals; a set would take two or three hours to install. Actual mucking time would be 14 hours per day, actual drill« ing two to three hours, and threeâ€" quarters of an hour for blowing smoke. Per fsoot advance, nine holes were drilled, 51 pieces of steel and 52 pounds of 40 per cent. Forcite were used. Details of Work The shaft was sunk in three shifts daily with a picked crew recording an average advance of 8.6 feet per day. Orthodox timbering wias carried out entirely with B.C. fir, which had been previously treated with zinc chloride. The sets were all cut and fitted at surface before taking underground. On the 18th, 23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th and 27th levels, drives were put out from the old workings to the new shaft location and stations cut; on the 26th and 27th levels slashing to full Statlon size was not carried out. In sinking the shaft passed through schisted greenstone lava flows in generâ€" al, dipping south, which stood up well and made medium to hard drilling. The shaft is fiveâ€"compartment in size, inâ€" volving a rock break of 16 feet by 20 feet and it was sunk directly for 2062 feet below the 16th level, which makes it 4062 feet below the collar of No. 3 surface shaft., The outside timber measurements are 19 feet 5 inches by 13 feet 4 inches; the cage compartment is 12 feet by 6 feet; each skip comâ€" partment is 5 feet 6 inches by 5 feet 8 irches; the pipe, ladderway and counterweighth compartment is 9 feet 10 inches by 5 feet 3 inches. The levels are at. 150â€"foot intervals with the exâ€" ception of one at 100 feet. The cage is single deck, weighs six tons, with nickel steet construction and it may carry 40 men or five tons of material. The skips are also of nickel steel construction, weighing 3% ton each and they take fiveâ€"ton loads. | (Continued from Page One) ; . | winze to the 23rd level and through No. 2309 winze from the 23rd to the.27th level.

Travelers by the million are passing overhead, and while everybody knows that nobody knows just why or by what powers, it seems more surâ€" prising that nobody yet knows just where, or in what numbers. The ancient riddle of niigratisn poses a great varieâ€" ty of questionsâ€"why birds leave a warm and plentiful region to return to Other Pretinent Questions . Asked About Migratory : Birds Run the "cold" tap a few seconds beâ€" fore filling your kettle (never use stale water or water from the "hot" tap). See that the water is boiling furiously ard not just steaming. Scald out a crockery teapot, measure into it a teaspoonful of good quality tea for each person and one for the pot, add the boiling water and steep for five minutes before serving. Ncthing else soothes our tired bodies or gives us the same comfort and pleasâ€" ure that we get from a good cup of tea. Surely it is worth our while to make it carefully. How High in the Air Do the Birds Travel? To get the utmost in flavour and quality from tea is an art, but it is an art in which anyone can produce a masterpiece by following these simple directions: This remarkable shaft job has been carried out under the direction of J. H. Stovel, general manager; Robert E. Dye, general superintendent; C. G. Kemslie, mechanical superintendent; W. Wattam, mine superintendent; L. Bladen, engineer, and F. Demers, shaft The Art of Making Tea with A Distinctive® Flavour Three safety devices are embodied in the hoist and cage installations. Brakes are hydraulic by applying dead weight on each side of the drum and releasing oil pressure. The usual Lilly automatic cortrol is attached to the hoist and above it a track limit switch is installed 40 feet above the collar of the shaft. If the Lilly failed the other would cut out. The usual springâ€"set safety dogs are on the cage in case of rope failâ€" urc. The hoists are made by the Dominion Engineering Company and the motors are supplied by the English Electric Company. The time for installing one of the hoists is six to seven weeks. All the machinery was sectionalized for taking underground but even so very reavy pieces had to be handled. Taking eight and tenâ€"ton pieces down the shaft necessitated removing the cage and clamping the members to the rope. The heavy hoist shaft members would be held from swaying with crossheads. on structural steel trusses on columns, which also support the roof. The steelwork is painted with aluminum and the walls are whitewashed. The skip hoist is in a room of similar size and with electrical equipment it weighs 134 tons. This hoist is quite simiâ€" lar to the cage hoist except it is a douâ€" ble drum and 1%; inch cables are used for the two skips in balance. Speed, motor, gearing, etc., are all the same. Sheave wheels for both hoists are 19 feet in diameter with renewable rope tread; they turn on steel bearer beams set in rock. Ropeways are provided by raises in each case. Overhead 10â€"ton cranes operate in each room supported face is eight feet eight inches. The cage rope is one and threeâ€"eighth inches in diameter and the counterbalance rope is one and oneâ€"quarter inches in diaâ€" meter. Rope speed is 1400 feet and the motor is 700 horsepower alternating current. The gears are totally enclosed with a reduction ratio of 10.8 to one. All the bearings and gears are selfâ€" lubricating â€"and the liquid controller is the standard moving electrode type. never seen by them; why some birds go south and others stay; why some deâ€" part even in the bounteous Northern July.
