fossils was walking in the country
near Lawrence short time ago and

flint rocks which were lying on the
surface. Had il not been for the fact
that he was interested In geology
and was familiar with the different
kinds OF rocks. the fossils might have

AS the time approaches when the

greater or less than the cost OF ship
ping IL by car ferry. On assurance
that the break.bulk rates will be Kept
equal with the car ferry rates. the in
crease was allowed.
