HUN SHELLS UNCOVER TOMS.
Cathedrsl Built by Franks Brought
to Light During War.

paris.-f'rom out of the shadows Of
one of the blackest deeds of the Ger
man army in France has emerged a
discovery that will make students of
history's grim past the world over rub
their hands with Joy and set them
greedily digging for every scrap and
shred to piece together another chap
ter of bygone days.
The archaeological mission charged
with the study of the reconstruction
of the Rheims cathedral reports that
German shells disclosed another Ca
thedral built by the Franks and which
contained the tomb of King Clovis for
one thousand eight hundred and ninety
four years.
1t is expected that further excava-
tion will reveal the whole fundation
of the historic cathedral built by early
Frankish architects and disclose at
least the general outline of the rare
architecture of that time.

upon its banner year. One hun
dred and FIVE students have en-
rolled, there being seventy-fve
in the Freshman class. Pros
poets are bright for a still larger
enrolment before Christmas.
So numerous are the students
that it was necessary to organize
two English | classes. The pro-
fessors are kept extremely busy
taking care of the extra work.
The faculty is stronger than
ever before in the history of the
institution.
The music department is doing
exceptionally high grade work.
Later in the year public musicals
will be given.
The inter-class basket ball

Will Install Photoplayer

Oakley continues to make
progress. Within a few weeks
we will have the privilege of
hearing a first class photoplayer
every time we go to picture
show. This instrument is a
piano, pipe organ and orchestra,
all in one. Mr.. Whittle is in
vesting a lot of money in the
Olphelm, besides giving us
good pictures.
That's the kind Of pictures we
want the very best. And that
is the kind of music we want.
When the people of Oakley get
wnat they want, they are de-
lighted to pay well for it.

Club to Supervise Slaughter
of Beavers

The state game warden has
agreed to permit a limited num-
ber of trappers to kill the beavers
that interfere with Oakley's
water supply if the local Com
mercial Club will supervise the
affair. The trapping will have
to be done between the last of
November and the first of April.
1t is thought that the removal
of the beaver dams will substan-
TALLY increase the water supply
in the dam.

The Second Prize Gold Wris

The Second Prize Gold Wrist
Watch.
Who will get the first prize?
Who will win the second prize?
These questions are often asked
the editor. He hasn't the Slight
est idea who the lucky individ-
uals will be. Nobody knows.
Nobody can know till the last day
of October. The contestants
themselves don't know.
1t is not improbable that some
of the prizes may be won by in
dividuals who have not yet enter
ed the contest.
There is a rumor that one Of the
contestants who so far has not
registered many votes is holding
back a large number and is deter
mined to win the Sonora. While
The Herald cannot vouch for the
truth of this report, it will be
wise policy for the leading candi-
dates to work like "the dickens"
from now till October 81.
While we haven't the slightest
idea as to who the winners will
be, we are sure of this: they are
going to be genuine hustlers.
To win the first or the second
prize will prove real ability.
