"DAD" ROY ALE'S LUCKY DAY
Old M*n Had Reason to Bo Thankful
That Hi* Pig Developed Quality

One of the most Important applies*

t>f mhit'iul Wfulih. And yet, where
COJlpBT U ffpftCt Tiicd. (lie really mat
discoveries in ujijs countw have been
made by pure luck,
It v\iiK Old Mfti) Itoyalo's pig (hut

famous Calumet lode.
Old Man 11<?>; 1 u? vr&t not InUivMed
lu mining; he kept a hoarding house,
ttnt hts ptg was gtftert with the vatu
able quality of enterprise, Grubbing
In the hack yard, it "snooted up" a
prehistoric Indian cache. 1
- The cache contained a large quan
tity of copper, a fortune Id Itself. Hut
examination of <fce rock beneath dis
closed veins of the metal, and mining
operations thereupon undertaken de
veloped the Calumet lode, which has
sluce paid $145,000,000 In dividends
and $500,000,000 In wages.
"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

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.
