The principal equipment used is an excavating machine for stripping the soil off the coal and a smaller excavator for loading the coal. The cost of the equipment is relatively high but labor costs are small in proportion. With the proper equipment it is profitable to go do<vn 50 feet for a layer of coal five feet in depth.

January is named for Janus, the two-faced god, who stood at the beginning of things, looking back over the old year and ahead to tlje new; February, from "Febru," to purify, for the Roman feast of Purification, held on the fifteenth of the month; March, from Mars, the god of war; April, from "Aperio," to open, signifying the opening of the buds; May, for Mala, the mother of Mercury, to whom the pagans offered sacrifice on the first day of that month; June, for Juno, considered queen of Olympus and protectress of women; July, in honor of Julius Caesar, who was born in this month; August, named by Augustus Caesar in his own honor; September, from "septum," meaning seven, as seventh month in the old Roman year which began in March; October, from "octo," eight; November, from "novem," nine; December, from "decern," The Indeterminate Sentence The theory of the indeterminate sentence is that it is the prisoner, rather than the crime, that is being tried and sentenced, and every person convicted is permitted and required to work out his own salvation by demonstrating his fitness for release. It is based on the individual's traits and tendencies and on the promise that he apparently has or develops toward adjusting to normal environment and return to society. Where a state has such an indeterminate sentence law, it is the law itself that provides for these minimum and maximum sentences. While many prisoners are paroled at the expiration of the minimum sentence, many others are paroled only after serving the recommended maximum. Discovery of Gold la Gold was first discovered in Alaska in 1848, in the gravels of Kenai river by P. P. Doroshin, a Russian mining engineer who was theu making an examination of the mineral resources of the district for the Russian-American company. In 1850 and 1851 Doroshin, with a working force of 14 men, prospected the gravels of two streams entering Kenai river between Kenai and Skilak lakes and those of a third stream tributary to the latter lake. Gold was found nearly everywhere in the gravels examined, but not in commercial quantities at that Brooklyn.--There aren't many careers open to a blind girl, even when she has a Hunter college degree tucked away in a desk drawer and a shiny ^Phi Beta Kappa key dangling around her neck. Helen O'Connell, who is finishing four years* college work in three and a half, is troubled about her future. She doesn't know whether she'll be weaving tea caddies for gift shoppes or studying to be a social worker after she is graduated. Once a week she goes to recreation classes at the Lighthouse, sponsored by the New/York Association for the Blind. There she studies cooking, interpretative dancing, and gymnasium work. She's even learned to jump hurdles. For 10 years she has been a member of the Blind Players club at Suffern, N. Y. She rehearses over week-ends. Twice she has a^ted in the chib's spring performance at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, But the tail, brown-haired girl Wants above all other things to be a social worker. Her Real Ambition. She had had that ambition ever since a woman at the American Foundation for the Blind told her of the need for blind social workers to teach the blind. "I went to the New York School of Social Work," Helen said, "and they told me there were no fellowships available this semester. The< tuition is $750 for the two ye&r course." Widowed Mrs. Marion O'Connell takes her daughter to Hunter from their home in Brooklyn every day, and calls for her in the evening. It's lucky for Helen that Hunter is a municipal college, where tuition is free, or there wouldn't be any bachelor of arts degree or Phi Beta Kappa key either for the blind girl. When Helen's father died fifteen years ago in Cork, Ireland, Mrs. O'Connell came to America. She had borne thirteen children. Seven of them were dead. Helen could see as well as anybody then. 'When she was thirteen, she noticed one day that she couldn't read the words of her book clearly and that faces and colors seemed dulled and obscure. A doctor said that the films on the little girl's eyes were "complicated cataracts." He added that they were "inoperable." Adept at Writing Braille. Helen learned Braille at Public School 157 in Brooklyn. "Watch, I'll show you how it's done," she said. She took a perforated strip of metal, fastened it on a piece of cardboard, and With a little awl rapidly punched a series of ridged dots. Her hands moved faster than a crack typist's. The series of dots, she said, spelled Helen O'Connell. She takes her class notes in Braille. Other Hunter students help by reading class assignments. They are paid for their services from a special fund provided by the State Aid for the Blind. She writes her examinations on the portable typewriter which she carries back and forth from Brooklyn" every day. pr WANT ADS Canine Sentry Is Alert 7 Years at Guard Station Gainesville, Ohio.--Jerry, official canine mascot of the near-by Fairport harbor coast guard station, not once in seven years has failed to accompany the watchman on duty on his rounds four times nightly. Jerry, a Belgian police dog, knows his job thoroughly, according to coast guardsmen. When a patrol of the beach is due he whines for someone to punch the round time clock. His uneasiness continues until he starts the round. Jerry is never off duty. At night he sleeps near the watchman, never failing to arouse just before each round. During the day he never relaxes his vigilance. All who enter the grounds of the station receive his friendly, but thorough, attention. He never was known to attack anyone, but never fails to cock a suspicious ear at the approach of a stranger. Jerry usually is on hand to escort visiting fishermen through the grounds. He likes children who find their way to the station and takes their mauling with a wagging tail.
