BATHOLITHS SOURCE
OF WORLD’S GOLD
The source of most of the
world’s gold was explained
by Professor W. H. Emmons of
ihe University of Minnesota at
a recent meeting of the Amer
lican Institute of Mining and
Metallurgical Engineers. The
wise gold seeker, he said, in
stead of prospecting with pick,
pan and pinto, will seek out a
batholith.
Batholiths are immense geo
logical formations of granite,
“the remaining portions of
great deep-seated bodies that
slope outward as very irregular
roofs, but extend downward to
great depths. Some of these
are scores or hundreds of miles
across.”
Seeking gold from batholiths
is strictly a business occupat
ion, he said. That is where
most of the present greatest
lodes lie, in Canada, southern
Rhodesia, Siberia and western
Australia.
Long ago these batholiths
pushed upward, their progress
accompanied with volcanic
heat which melted their rising
roofs and burned through the
upper rocks with volcanic act
ion. With this rise came the
gold.
Today it lies, not in the gran
ite, but nearby, usually in the
nocks through which the gran
ite pushed. Rich deposits of
gold are frequently from a few
miles of these granite outcrops.
“It is believed,” he said,
“that the mineral bearing flu
ids rose to the top of the cool
ing batholith where the rock
was not completely solid.”
Peru is the world’s largest
source of vanadium and is be
lieved to be the only country in
which the metal is mined for
itself alone.
A new harvesting machine j
reaps corn, shells, cleans and
bins it and cuts the stalks so
that they can be plowed under
readily.

STANLEY JONES was thinking of
his sister Sally. He likened her
to a duck. Water sliding off a
duck’s hack. Sally had been like
that—responsibilities, cures, things
that other people would be troubled
with—water that would soak through
the plumage of any bird but a duck—
always sliding off Sally, whose feath
ers were always • as smooth and
glossy and perfectly dry as those on
a duck’s back. Nice metaphor that,
thought Stanley Jones, ns he drove
home from his office to what lie had
once considered his cony, comfortable
bachelor’s apartment. It was no long
er either cony or comfortable—not
even a bachelor’s apartment since
Sally, the duck, and her husband, Bill
Ames, had sailed away to the south
of France for the remainder of the
winter, leaving eight-year-old Stan,
named after himself, to share the
apartment with him.
uu\iug pruceeueu uius mr wiui ms
meditation Stanley found himself in
front of ids apartment house. He
found young Stanley joyously play
ing In the basement with the jani
tor’s children. That was the only
arrangement that could be made on
afternoons when Stanley could not
get home from work early enough to
take charge after school hours.
Now It was five, and there would
be an hour and a half before they
would be out for dinner—nnd an hour
und a half that had once meant peace
and tranquillity with pipe and book
for Stanley. Now it meant home work
with Stanley. Young Stanley had
been rather slow with arithmetic, but
before Sally left for France she
had explained to Stan’s teacher that
the deficiency could be easily made
up when young Stan was staying with
his uncle, who was a good mathe- ]
matician, said Sally, and would have !
nothing to do but help his nephew. I
There was a neatly penned note
that first afternoon in Stan's school
bag. It was from his teacher. “Dear
Mr. .Tones,’’ It said. “Stanley still
needs help in his tables. He under
stands the theory apparently, but he
has not had enough drilling. And
Stanley Is careless. Would you please
see that he knows his tables better
and please drill him In accuracy." It
was signed Matilda Hawkins.
“I’d like to see that teacher of
yours,” said Uncle Stanley, with a
fine tone of sarcasm that was lost
on his nephew. “How old Is she?”
“Oh, she must be very old. I
shouldn't wonder If she was forty or
maybe sixty.”
“Is she good looking—at all?” said
Uncle Stanley.
"Well, some of us fellows think so
—but you wouldn't. She’s got a kind
of roundish face with a sort of a
funny nose and u bump on her head
and a kind of queer mouth.”
“She doesn’t sound like a beauty,”
observed Stanley, undoing the buckles
of his nephew’s school bag. Spelling
came first nnd then some written
work in English, and after that, drill
with tlie tables. Stanley found that
since the day before his nephew had
quite successfully forgotten all he had
ever known of the seven times table, i
It didn't worry Stan very much. !
“Teacher says you ought to drill me |
more,” he observed.
The next day Stan’s bag contained
a note from his uncle for the teacher.
He regretted his failure as a tutor,
and askeil If arrangements could be
made for her to tutor the boy from
five to six every evening.
Stan brought back word that teach
er said that it would be against the
rules of the school for the teacher to
accept fees for tutoring, but teacher
had said she would come around at
five to help, nnd would talk things
over with Uncle Stanley.
So at a little after live that eve
ning teacher arrived. But when
Stanley answered her ring at the door
and saw the pretty young woman
standing there in the hull he hadn't
the faintest idea that she really was
his nephew’s teacher.
“Is Mr. Stanley Jones at home?"
she asked, somewhat perplexed.
"Why, I am Stanley Jones—won’t
you come In?”
"You are not little Stanley Ames’
uncle?" she gasped. “I am little
Stanley’s teacher. He said you i
were—”
They stood regarding each other
with amazement. “He said you were
quite an old man—probably sixty ut
least—with wrinkles—”
“I’ve got wrinkles teaching him.” j
laughed Stanley. “I happen to be
twenty-nine. No one would guess that
you were somewhere around fifty
yourself.”
“I’m twenty-three," protested the
teacher. “The little wretch—”
Together they worked with little j
Stanley, somewhat bewildered over
