DISEASES
Adults can, and do, contract many . . ■ ■ _
children’s diseases. And, usually, they her t“*rd ®ft of teeth
suffer from them much more than
children do. For instance, many adults
contract worms, an ailment usually
associated with children. Sometimes
they suffer intensely and take expen-
sive medical treatments, without real.

Lord is keeping me on earth so long,”

LOCK UP OF REPEATING
CRIMINALS IS URGED
Recently three robbers attempted
to hold up a branch of an important
bank in a northern California city.
During the robbery one of them shot
and killed a teller who did not obey
orders with sufficient alacrity to sat-
isfy the thugs.
Fortunately the three were cap-
tured when the car in which they
were escaping crashed into a truck.
And the. fact appeared that all of
them were old offenders with contin-
uous records for felonies in Pacific
•Coast cities.
The record of the killer embraced
an eighty year sentence for robbery,
an escape from prison and identifi-
cation for a previous holdup. He was
also wanted for robbery in Los An-
jpbft. ' ,
The second member of the trio had
to his credit conviction for assault
with a deadly weapon, an arrest as
. wun a ueauiy
bank robber suspect, and an arrest Texas scenery.
GIRLS ENCAMPMENT
AT THE STATE FAIR
We three hundred Four H Club
girls arrived at Dallas, October 15, to
spend three days at the camp pre-
pared for us.
Our real expedition began on Tues-
day morning. We went to see the
agricultural and livestock exhibits,
which were very interesting.
We visited the fish hatchery and
saw thousands of baby fish. These
are for supplying the streams of
Texas when they are exhausted.
On Tuesday afternoon we went thru
the City Zoo. That night we went to
the auditorium and saw “The Desert
Song.”
Wednesday we went downtown and
went to the top of the Magnolia build-
ing. We went through Neiman-Mar-
cus Department Store. Among the in-
teresting things we saw there were:
a pirate’s chest, wrought iron gates
from Spain and beautiful paintings of

answer the charge.
The third thug, not to be outdone,
had demonstrated his ability by an
arrest for attempted burglary, a sen-
tence on another burglary charge, an
arrest for robbery, and another ar-
rest.

We went through Baker Hotel and

THE LARGEST GOLD MINE
Back in the mid seventies a mad
gold rush to the Black hills of South
Dakota—that region over which two
Indian tribes, the Crows and the
Siouxs fought desperately until the
latter won in a final clash near Bat-
tle mountain and it finally passed by
treaty in the custody of Uncle Sam-
claimed the attention of the universe
Gold is still mined in the hills, but
the work is carried on in such a quiet
and business-like manner that it at-
tracts little attention beyond he con-
fines of that region.
Aa a matter of fact, the largest
producing gold mine in the Unitea
States and the one from which has
come the bulk of South Dakota’s pro-
duction, is located at Lead in the
Deadwood district. Its shafts range
from 800 to 2,400 feet in depth and
it contains upwards of 60 miles of
tunnels, drifts and crosscuts. This
great Home-stake mine has produced
more than 6200,000,000 worth of the
yellow metal, continues to produce it
at the rate of $6,000,000 to $8,000,000
per annum and still has something
like 3,000,000 tons of ore blocked out
and seniainlng in the mine. As a side
line this mine also produces consid-
erable silver—82,000 ounces, for in-
stance valued at approximately $5,-
000,000, in 1926.
