gatherings, camping parties and auto
tourists was very forcefully brought
to our attention by the number visit
ing this park last season. Over 5000
tourists registered at Diamond Point
during the season Of 1920, and repre-
sented 27 different states. Provisions
were made to take care Of all auto
camping parties. A 70-foot we'll was
dug and a pump installed for the con-
venience Of camping and picnic par
ties. Plans for diving tower have
been made and the lumber has al
ready been donated. This is one of
the projects left over from last year
and should be completed as soon as
weather will permit. More fire places
should be built as the expense is
small and they are great convent
ence for campers.
"In conclusion, wish to express
my sincere appreciation for the
splendid cooperation and support
you have given me during my term of
office.
81 also wish to express my appre-
citation to our secretary, N. E. Given,
upon whose shoulders the heavy bur-
dens of this work have fallen and who
has made it possible to accomplish so
much that has been DONE"

SCHOOL CRISIS STILL
ACUTE. SAYS CLAYTON

,,st culture and education were at
tracted to it, The men went into 1t
to earn money to train themselves for
ther work in the professions and
public life. President-elect Hardine
was one of these. Thus for short
ime, at least, the nation obtained
the services of men and women who
later in life went into the profess
sions like medicine and the law and
into public life.
when the war came on the sal
aries and wages in most other profess
sions were boosted, it became impos-
sible for the men and women to go
into teaching to earn money while
training themselves for larger posi-
ions. Their training cost them more
nd they had to go into industrial
positions to earn the additional mo-
ley needed.
"This is a condition that never
will return. The schools from now
on must pay salaries sufficient to at
tract people who will make teaching
their life work. -

URUGUAY RICH IN AElETHYSTS
Gems Found In "Goedes," Which 10
Natures Way Of Storing Precious
Stones for Posterity.

The northwestern part Of Uruguay
is O. newly discovered field for the pro-
duction Of amethysts, which occur in
"geodes." The goodies, so plentiful
that they are picked up in the fields,
are carried on mule-back or in carts
to the nearest railway station and
shipped in barrels to Salto, whence
they are transported by river boat to
Montevideo.
Naturally, it will be asked, What is
a geode? Originally, it was hole in
rock. Water percolating through the
rock deposited silica, making lining
for the cavity. The lining grew thick.
er and thicker, and after long time,
If the rock were broken or 'weath-
cred" to pieces, a hard nodule would
drop out. The nodule Is ge0de;
and If, as sometimes happens, the
silica has formed crystals inside of
it, colored by metallic salts, the goede
is little Jewel box containing ame-
thysts.
A beautiful statuette, eight inches
high, Of a woman dancing, has re-
Gently been placed in the Morgan Gem
hall Of the American Museum of Nat
ural History, in New York city. It
is carved out Of a perfect block Of
translucent sapphire (blue quartz)

1wenty-Toed Elephants In 0emanc

Twenty-Toed Elephants In Demand.
Twenty-toed elephants are held in
generation throughout India, and are
keenly sought by all the rajas and
maharajas for the prosperity they
are supposed to bring, says Charles
Mayer, in Asia Magazine. They are
guarded more carefully and quartered
even more sumptuously than the
white elephants Of Siam, and the price
they will bring is determined almost
entirely by the amount the rajas can
gather together.

Suicide Among Musicians Rare.

It has been found that suicide 1s
very uncommon among musicians.
Schumann attempted it, and it is also
recorded of Tschaikowsky, but cases
of musicians who have killed them
selves arc very rare. 1t is said that
these facts are so, because of the
mental composure and balance fos-
tered by music.

A man giving the name of S. Rush
has been brought to this city by Dep
uty Sheriff Herbert H. Hill of Quinn
River Crossing, with a charge of
horse stealing placed against him, he
having taken the horse from the Mil
Ter & Lux ranch. Upon discussion. ii
was decided that the man had not In
tended to keep the horse. as 1t had
been turned loose after having been
ridden several miles, and had re
turned home. The saddle, however
was missing, but when when pressed
the man told where it could be found
and the owner again has it in his pos
session. He was allowed to plead
guilty to a charge of petty larceny
yesterday. but, so far has not been
sentenced.
Rush is merely transient, and
claims to have become weary of walk
ing, and had thought that good
chance to rest his feet and at the
same time keep moving.
