PETRIFIED FISH ARE FOUND.
California Miners Discover Two Pre-
historic Monsters of the Sea.

San Andreas, CaI.-Word has been
brought here from Railroad Flat that
in the tunnel of the Bouvoir mine,
near the Calaveras river, Is miles
East Of Mokelumne Hill, two immense
petrified fish were found a few days
ago, one feet long and the other
Is.
The largest one was lengthwise of
the tunnel and the miners had blast
ed into it some distance before they
determined what it was. Then 1t was
too late to preserve 1t, large portions
having been blown to pieces. The
other one was crosswise and the tun-
mel was put through it.
The fish were imbedded IN cement
gravel and had no doubt been there
many centuries, since gravel filled
what must have been in the remote
past an immense inland sea.

Three lads were brought be-

the charge of stealing knives of
the Canyon Mercantile Co. and
Thompson Hardware Co. The
parents of the boys, the heads of
the stores and the authorities
gave the boys a lecture of advice
and promised to file no charges
against them if they would be
good. The boys are at liberty
under such a promise. The
authorities are determined to
wipe out street loafing, which
has led such boys as these to the
bad.

MORE HOUSES is PROBLEM.
Cany0n Wants Place for Attendants at
West Texas State Normal
this Coming Year.

Boarding Houses Wanted" is
an advertisement that appears
in the Daily News of this issue.
This sounds like a strange ad
vertisement but it is a splendid
reflection of the condition of the
little city from which the ad was
sent.
Boarding houses is what are
wanted and at present they are
wanted badly in Canyon, where
the West Texas Normal School
is located. These boarding
houses are wanted for the ac-
commodation of the students
who have already been enrolled,
The lack of boarding houses is
now one of the chief concerns of
those in charge of the school. .
Such large number of students
have signitied their intention of
affiliating with the school that it
makes it imperative that more
accommodations be prepared for
them as soon as possible.
School is scheduled to com
mence September twentieth and
from the present indications the
enrolment will be much larger
than was at first anticipated. -

Canyon Boy Makes Good.

According to a short notice in
the Denver Post, Pug Cavitt has
been called in by the Detroit
Americans from the Three-l
league. Pug has been on the
pitching list for the Rock Island
team in this league and has
made a good record as a slab
artist. His first tryout with the
Tigers probably will come in
about the last of this week and
all his Canyon friends are watch
ing the sporting pages of the big
papers to see if he makes good.
Pug is the son of H, j. Cavit'
of this city and has lived here
good number of years. Hi'
career as a ball player began in
Canyon and he gradually became
master of all the ms and outs, a,
well as headwork, that battles

Joy has a fine a crop as could be

the fact that it sells at from 1920
to $3.50 per ton makes this very
desirable produce for Texas to
raise.

PROF. LAUERY
GIVES LECTURE
ADDRESS ON GODS MODEL OF A
CITIZEN WELL RECEIVED.
Amarillo Man Gives Lecture to United
Congregations Of the City at
the Methodist Church.

Sunday evening held in store
a great treat for the people who
attended the union services at
the Methodist church. Prof.
Lauery of Amarillo, who had
lectuced at the Baptist church
Sunday morning on Civ C
Righteousness" stayed over to
address the union meeting.
Mr.. Lauery took for a subject
Gods Model of Citizen" =" AS
a scriptural basis for his re-
marks, he chose the Apostle
Paul as the great model of citi-
zen. Paul was chosen because
he was continuously reminding
people of his city, of his race and
of his citizenship. God pity
the man who don't talk his town
up rather than talk 1t down.
was the keynote sounded by the
speaker. Paul always carried a
definite program which he sue
ceeded in carrying out. His
tirst plank was, obedience is
freedom, and there is no free
dom except under the law, The
American people have run liber-
ty into license. The speaker
expressed himself as optimistic,
although there was some little
hrea of anarchy running
through the home and schools.
If we had government of a dig
nitied and rightful authority in
the home for twenty-one years,
we could then turn our court
houses into school houses and
our jails into cold-stOrages."
The second plank of Paul's
platform was allegiance; ale
glance to law and authority. The
speaker paid his respects to
newspapers who are continually
scoring and ridiculing those in
authority on grounds of personal
matters. 1t is Gods will that
there should be those in author
ity." However, this does not
mean that allegiance be carried
to the point of neglectfulness.
1t is our duty to whip an official
to his duty is he shirks-this is
one form of allegiance.
The third and last plank of
Paul's platform was public spiri-
ted citizenship. "A citizen is
not a good citizen unless he is
ready to aid all things that are
helpful for'the town, the side
walks, streets, schoolhouses and
teachers. ..,<
The address throughout was
delivered in forceful and mas
terly way. The large audience
we're well pleased that the speak
er discussed a question so near
the heart of every citizen. 1t is
to be hoped that Mr.. Lauery can
be persuaded to visit Canyon
again for another address.
