hold good with the fair brunette

would kill the delicate tints. The pale

effective. and at the other extreme 1

have recently read rivals thar Of two
Russian boys who ut play stumbled
upon what they thought We're tin and

t. be worth some $4,000. The vessels.
TO be sure, were not tin and brass. but
silver and gold. though this vas not
learned until the Archaeological Socie-
ty of st. Petersburg heard of the mat
ter aitd sent an expert to investigate it.
OF course, the mere fact that the ar
ticles are of precious metal makes
them valuable. but the chief interest in
item centers III the fact that they are
so old and have been buried in the
earth 50 long. Some of the beakers and
dishes dis oyered are thought to be
over LOO years Old. having come down

rs leprisal against Morrow. His son
had been Daisy's favored sutton until
Degnon had stepped in and cut him
out. Ridgiey had not forgiven the
banker for the fancied slight.
It was nearly noon when a clerk
dashed out Of the Provident and hur-
ried into the First National. In a mo-
ment he came out again, accompanied
by Ridlley himself. They were making
their way TO the Provident through the
crowd when suddenly Ridgley stopped
at the edge of the excavation.
He saw n of the laborers was
working with a crowbar at the bottom
of the pit, seeking to dislodge the bar
from some obstruction it had ncoun
tered. Ridgley shouted excitedly to the
mdn.. who smiled pleasantly into his
face and began to climb out Of the pit.
The crowd left the line and crowded
around tie opening. The laborer was
waving his permit, blandly confident OF
his rights, and in his excitement Ridg-
ley could not make himself understood.
At last the workman seemed to compre-
bend and. dropping back into the pit,
seized a pickaX and smashed through
the obstruction, proudly handing out a
bulky cylinder. now gaping wide to
show its load of crisp bills.
In a flash the crowd understood. The

Half Il dozen men in the crowd began
to explain how the bank was profitiny

university will stage their annual
faculty burlesque at the Framing.
The annual scholastic track and field
meet was of very modest proportions
when inaugurated by the state univer

once met with popular favor because
lit afforded means of bringing to-
lgether and eo-ordinating the high
schools of the state, and at the same
time gave the youthful athletes a goal
toward which to labor in their local
contests. Thus it has grown year by
year until this spring all the railroads.

Gala Day at lnterscholastic Meet.
The great day for the high school
|students of Oklahoma is almost here.
The eighth annual interscholastic
track and field meet is to be held on
Boyd Field at Norman, under the aus
pices of the state university, April 26
and 27. The university authorities
Monday night received a practically
complete list of entries which shows
that high school students are planning
to attend from every nook and corner
of the state and nearly half hundred
of the prominent high schools will
have teams competing in the great
athletic carnival Indications are that
the crowd of 5000 which attended the
meet last year will be easily exceeded
and preparations are being made to
entertain much larger number. 1t
is believed that the uniform success
of the meet last year and close com
petition in the various events has
done much to stimulate interest, while
the growing interest in physical de-
yelopment as an adjunct to proper
mental development has also played
its part. Thousands of high school
students, patrons and teachers will
take advantage of the big meet to
visit tie states leading educational
institution and inspect the equipment
and advantages it possesses.
