"Native" copper waa used to a con siderable extent by the Indiana In pre Columbian days, for ornamental pur inmes chiefly. Ancient aboriginal skel etons have been dug up wearing cop per maaka. In Michigan they got cop per out of rocks by building fires against them; and huge nuggets of "mass" copper weighing hundreds of pounds have been found In the Lake Superior region which showed signs of unsuccessful attack. The Indians had no tools with which to cut up auch great lumps, and they could not carry them away bodily. Copper is the American metal par excellence, and of all the metals Is the most useful to mankind, Iron alone excepted. Plan to Irrigate Egypt, , For many years projects have been under consideration for obtaining such a complete control of the waters of the upper Nile as will enable Egypt to develop its agricultural resources to the utmost and to secure the coun try against the dangers of excessive floods, while permitting the Sudan also to develop to some extent Its own vast resources. The works contemplated Nvill extend over a generation and Involve the ex penditure of tens of millions of dol lars, affecting the entire future of Irri gation throughout tho Nile basin. The commission, It is reported, will consist of three members: An irrigation engineer nominated by the government of India as president and a British pyhslcist nominated by the University of Cambridge, while to draw on the wide experience available In America on questions of irrigation and water supply, and still further to strengthen the Independence of the commission, an Irrigation engineer nominated by the government of the United States will constitute the third member. EXPENDITURES OF SALVATION ARMY SHOW (13,257,552 Commander Evangeline Booth Makes Publio Annual Home Service Fund Accounting. EXPANSION OF WORK IN ALL DEPARTMENTS NOTED Popular Organization's Pudget for 1920 Totals $10,000,000? Details of Fig urea for, 1919 and 1920. New York, April 12.- Expansion and advancement iu every department of Salvation Army work as a result of the 191P Home Service Fund are shown In a full accounting of that Fund JUst made public by Commander Kvapgellne Booth at tbe National Headquarter* of the organisation here. The finan cial statement, which is of January St, 1920, shows total expenditures through out the country up to and including that date of $13,257,552, with a re mainder on baud for the four months to May 31, of $010,140. Details of tbe .ttntement disclose that the sum of $1,441,185 was ex pended up to January 31, for tbe main tenance of 030 corps and outpoifs In all parts of tbe United States. -This item includes rentals of halls and their maintenance, salaries of 1,800 officers, the expenses of work for children and young people, the cost of all local re lief work of whatever nature, and sue!) incidental expenditures as postage, printing, stationery and the like. < In thw period covered by the report the sum of $1,688,420 was expended by thirty-four provincial and divisional headquarters for fresh-air farms and camps, comprehensive relief work of a special nature amongst the poor, the sick and tbe distressed. These head quarters are charged With the over sight and direction of all corps and simitnr activities in their jurisdiction as well as the extension of Salvation Army effort to unoccupied fields and localities. Hence, this Item includes also salaries of executive officers, of clerical and other employees, necessary traveling expenses, postage, the cost of advertising, publicity and a portion of the expenditures Incidental to the or ganization of the financial campaigns. Details of Expenditures. Other Items detailed in the report Include the sum of $021,000, repre senting administrative and other ex penses borne by National Headquar ters in New York and Territorial Head quarters In Chicago; $187,309 repre senting the cost of operating and main taining 25 rescue homes and maternity hospitals, a general hospital and one for children, 3 children's homes and 11 Blum settlements und nurseries; and. $400,000 apportioned according to the 1919 budget for the pension fund for Aged or disabled officers. Most significant, as indicating the remarkable advancement made by the Salvationists during the past year as a result of the 1919 Fund contributed by the country, are the lifting of mort gages to the amount of $1,881,193 and the outlay of $7,038,834 for new build lags and addititfbs, making a total of $8,919,528. Hitherto demands upon the Salva tion Army's efforts have been so much greater than Its Income that it has labored under a tmnendous indebted ness, its officers have been reduced to part pay year after year, and the or ganization has been handicapped in its operations. ? ? Not All Mortgages Liquidated. Only a part of the mortgage indebt edness was paid off last year, however; the increased demands upon the Army everywhere in the country being so great that increased and new facilities for hospitals, rescue homes and other Army institutions called for the out lay of more than $7,000,000. Army officers hope that the response to the 1920 Home Service Appeal will be such as to permit of the wiping out of much of the remaining mortgage indebted ness, provide for the maintenance of the organization's established activities and make urgently needed extensions and .development possible.

The Wonders of America By T. T. MAXEY GLACIER NATIONAL PARK. GLACIKR Is on? of the newer of oar great "outdoor museums" or ua (ioiiuI parka. Scattered throughout IU 1,400 square miles Is a Jumble of moun* tains, glaciers. flyers, lakes and wuler falls which lodkt like "the Great Builder had left the odds and ends of hi* world making here In one disor dered heup." A newspaper itoan tolled hard to reach the top of one of the skyland (-trathr?ftewttftg-on * bontder andlook* Ing far out over the forests, across a I flower-carpeted yslley to s superbly beautiful mountain lake, he declared he had discovered "Where God sat when he tnads America." / The dominating feature of Glacier Is Its magnificently carved mountains. It contains some of the most tremen dous panoramas in the world. Some of its peaks remind one of cathedrals, others of forts and east ley. The SIMS and winds of hundreds of years have tinted their summits with varying hues. Often their sidles are covered with great, slow-moving glaciers?Ice fields, some of which travel fully firs Inches in a year. Between Or below them are splendid forests of pine. The mesdows between these wooded patches are a riot of wild 'flowers. ' But the supreme beauty of this psrk is Its mountain-hemmed,v mirrorlike lakes, fed by glacial streams which tumble down the mountain sides, often In tall, rlbfynllke falls of great beauty. Add to this an occasional glimpse of a Swiss chalet (for the accommoda tion of visitors) and you have an un beatable combination for the true lover of the wild and the beautiful.
