Hj ,. iyset him to looking after big things.
H " Ho came to Utah in 1883 and went to Park
u City, which camp was then becoming potential in
Htj the mining world.
Hj Mr. Keith's first work there was as foreman
H on the Ontario and he soon advanced to the work-
H ing superintendency of that wonderful mine.
H t John Judge was also working in the same
H ' mine. They soon became friends, both were
H studying the mine and its characteristics, and
H Anally associating with Thomas Kearns and the
H late Al Emery, they secured a lease on some ad-
H , jacent claims and began work upon them.
H From them there finally emerged the great Sil-
H ver King, which soon gained national and interna-
H ' tional fame and which has made all the projec-
H i tors and their families very rich besides being a
H l little providence to hundreds and thousands of
H poor men in giving them generous wages for al-
H most a third of a century.
H So soon as the Silver King was fully equipped
H I and all paid for, the chief owners began to in-
H t vest their incomes in Utah. From them and their
H work dates the beginning of the real forward
H march of Salt Lake. The first building done by
B Mr. Keith here was the erection of the Summit
H block and his palatial private home. Then came
f tho organization and the launching of the Keith-
H j O'Brien company's great mercantile establish
M ment, and his work has been along like lines ever
M since.
B No one knows how long is the roll of his chari-
M ' ties, suffice to say his heart and hand are always
H ' open to every worthy cause, while his shoulder is
B I always under some enterprise for tho advance-
M J ment of tho city or state.
n Mr. Keith was a member of the convention
fi tliat framed the constitution of Utah, and he has
M ' been a benefactor to the state every day since,

To paraphrase a little: Age cunnot wither,
nor great fortune change David Keith's generous,
rugged, stalwart self.
THE AMITY BALL
The ibenefit ball to be given February S3, at
the Odeon hall, by the Amity club for the pur
pose of raising funds to aid the Jewish sufferers
from the war in Europe promises, to 'be one of
the (biggest financial as well as social successes
ever given in Salt Lake according to the com
mittee which has the arrangements in charge.
Tho Jews are among the greatest sufferers in
this great conflict and the Jews all over this
country are raising mfoney to send for their assist
ance. Tho funds collected here will be forwarded
to the committee in tho east Salt Lakers have
given splendid support to the cause and the com
miittee has spared no pains to see that all who
attend tho iball will have a good time as well as
the pleasure of knowing that they are assisting to
relieve some of the suffering caused 'by the great
conflict.
The resignation of Arthur M. Cooper as chief
clerk at the Newhouso hotel, was noted by his
friends with sincere regret Mr. Cooper's plans
will probably necessitate his leaving the state and
those who have met him while here, socially, in a
business way or both, while regretting his de
parture, are wishing him tho greatest success in
his new field. He is one of the most popular
Greeters who ever came to the city and is well
and favorably known locally and by tho traveling
public generally.
A new firm has been organized under tho name
of the Smoot-Bamberger-Bintz Company Incor
porated, insurance brokers at 508 and 509 Walker
Bank building. The firm succeeds the Mountain
States Insurance Agency, D. A. Homan is presi
dent and general manager and among those inter
ested are W. H. Bintz, Jr., H. It. Smoot and Clar-
ence G. Bamberger. From the personnel of tho
company, we are lead to believo that it will be
one of the most successful organizations of the
kind in the intermountain west.
There is no occasion for a genius to be so
erratic that ho) lays himself liable to be misunder- j,-
stood by his best friends. Elmer I. Goshen has a
host of friends in this and other communities who
admire him for what he is, but when he gets on
the same platform with a cluster of agitators
banded under the red banner of the "I" "Won't
"Work, and by all reports coincides with their
ideas in referring to the supposedly downtrodden,
he doesn't add to his prestige or popularity in the (
community and we wouldn't be surprised if he I
knows it himself.
