This word of appreciation of the late
Frank H. Dalton was written by a friend
of Mr. Dalton 's and it' is such a splen
did tribute to the worth and character
of Mr. Dalton that it is well worth
printing go that his friends may read it.
"This 'summer I saw the White moun
tains for the first time. To me, the
White mountains had become a house
hold word, just as "goodness and "vir
tue" are household words grown familiar
and almost meaningless by constant us
age. Therefore, when I came to the
White mountains I was disappointed in
them, because they did not tower as
loftily nor seem as shining as I had
dreamed they might tower and shine.
But as the train sped down the notch
and the late afternoon sun laid its magic
touch upon the summits, the mountains
suddenly began to pile up until they
reared their peaks into the very heavens
and their stupendous height and their
shining exceeded my dreams as only the
beauty of truth can exceed a dream. I
was not only satisfied, I was humbled
before them. So it is with the passing
of such men as Frank II. Dalton. We are
so short sighted in our earthly limita
tions that we need the effect of passing;
the mystic touch of death to cause the
splendor of a blameless life to rise up be
fore our realization as the mountains
before our eyes. Then we see the mean
ing of high resolve; the value of self sac
rifice and devotion to duty; the fine
courage of clean living in their true spir
itual beauty. He has left to each of us
a splendid heritafffe of good citizenship,
upright living and true Christian spirit.
Let us not grieve too greatly, there
fore, over onr loss, but rather thank God,
who through this man touched our eyes
with the magic of vision and gave us to
see the splendor of simple goodness in
its true value."

CLAY MINING IN U S.
Slight Decrease Was Noted Last Year
Over 1917.
The quantity and value of the clay
mined in the United States in 1918, ac
cording to an advance statement issued
by the United States geological survey,
department of the interior, based on re
ports furnished by clay miners, showed
a considerable decrease in output but an
increase in value compared with 1917.
The total quantity of" clay mined and
marketed as such is estimated at 2,
810,000 short tons, valued at $9,207,000,
or $3.28 a ton. This is a decrease of
about 304,000 tons or 10 per cent., in
quantity, but an increase of about $1,
105,000, or 14 per cent in value. The
imports decreased in both quantity and
value.
1 Features of the Year.
The outstanding feature of the clay
mining industry in 1918, besides the
considerable general decrease in output
and the increase in price, was the large
decrease in the output of the clays that
enter into the manufacture of the high
est grade of ware in spite of strong
demand ' and high prices. These clays
are produced principally in the south,
and the decrease in their production
was caused largely by the scarcity of
labor and . fuel and the difficulties of
transportation. It was almost impos
sible to get shipments through to the
north, where the principal market for
these clays is found.
Quantities and Values of the Several
, Kinds of Clay Produced.
Fire clay is the product of greatest
value, the 2,200,000 tons produced being
valued at $6,000,000, or $3 a ton. This is
a decrease of about 148,000 tons, or 7
per cent., in quantity, but an increase of
$975,000, or 17 per cent, in value com
pared with 19J7. Kaolin, paper clay, ball
clay, fire clay, and "all other" clay de
creased in output, but only one kind
paper clay decreased in value. The ka
olin,, which was used principally in the
manufacture of high-grade pottery,
amounted to 27,000 tons, valued at $340,
000, a decrease of 5,000 tons, of about
15 per cent., but an increase of nearly
$39,000, or 13 per cent. The average
price per ton of kaolin was $12.59 at the

of ball clay, which is also used largely
in pottery,- was 82,000 tons, valued at
$051, a decrease of 25,000 tons, or about
24 per cent., in quantity, but an in
crease of nearly $82,000, or 14 per cent,
in value. The average price of this clay
per ton in 1918 was $7.91, an increase of

another valuable veriety, the principal
use of which is indicated by its name,
decreased in quantity being about 03,000
tons, or 30 per cent., and the decrease in
value about $24,000, or 3 per cent. The
output in 1918 was 111,000 tons, valued
at $938,000.
