MINING IS BACKBONE OF
PROGRESS SAID RHODES
Cecil Rhodes, famous’ English
statesman and colonizer, built rhe
empire of South Africa on the foundation of mining. Here is what he
said of mining and its influence on
humanity:
“Mining has been the foundation
o fthe world’s wealth from the beginning of time. The governments
rich in minerals have always been
the richest and strongest governments on the earth.
“Mining is the only business o
this earth that increases the wealth
of the world without
the rights of others. The man whe
produees gold, silver and copper ‘is
creating the raw material of money;
every strike of his pick adds to the
wealth of every man’s business in
the world.”’

Plan Adopted
‘Adventure’ Only for
Man Physically Fit
I find that wost people think of “adventure” when the-word “exploration”
is used. To the explorer, however, adventure is merely an unsvelcome interruption of his serious labors.He is
looking, not for thriils, but for facts
about the unknown, Ofien bis search
is a race with time against stirvation. To him, an adventure ts merely
a bit ef bad planning,
by the test of trial. Or it is unfortunate exemplification of the faet
that.no man can grasp all the possibilities of the future.
his own: Serious Work in exploration calls
for as definite and as rigorous professivnal preparation as does -suecess
in any ether serious work in life. The
first qualification of an explorer ts a
sound and trained body. Exploring
involves the hardest kind of physical
exertion, and the capacity. to endure
such exertion under stress both for
long periods of sustained endeavor and
in the trying moments of eniergeney.
How preposterous, then, it is for men
who have lived at desks te maturity
suddenly to attempt these arduous enterprises! — Roald Amundsen. in
