The swimming pool is acknowledged by continental experts to be the most up-to-d date in Europe and the American swimmers already have had much favorable comment to make upon it.
 The Americans, Australians, Swedes, Japanese and Belgians arc the fav- orites to win the competitor in the order named, but the experts are looking also to France, Great Britain and Holland to furnish possible sur prises. Tomorrow's program consists of 1.500-metres free style elimination trials for men and kilometres free style elimination trials for women.

Iona, the "Blessed Isle"

Iona, one OF the smaller Of the In
ner Hebrides, was the blessed Isle
OF early Christian days in the British
Islands. says the Detroit News. St
Columbia, noted Irish missionary, made
1t the center Of Celtic Christianity.
From there missionaries went out 10
convert Scotland and northern Eng
land to Christianity. Kings Were
brought 10 be buried in the soil OF the
sacred island. The Importance OF Iona
was ended, however, by the Danes who
swept down about the beginning OF
the Ninth century and seized the Heb
rides from the Scotch.
The islands were returned to Scot
lands overlord in 1920. More than
500 Islands make up the Hehrldes
group, but only about 100 are inhab-
tied.

FISH AND GAME ASSOCIATION
WOULD CONSERVE GAME

The Delta Fish & Game Protective
association has just issued a circular
letter TO each Fish & Game associa-
ton of the state, asking them. to CO.
operate in conserving the fish and
game OF the state before they are ex-
terminated.
The Delta club was the first to
start such a move a number Of
months ago, and needless to say
will do everything possible to aid
in this movement.
The resolution passed recently by
the state association follows in de-
tail:
Whereas. the Statutes of the
State of Colorado having reference
to game AND fish, at the present time
are unsatisfactory and apparently
impossible of enforcement, and
Whereas, by reason thereof our
game and fish are rapidly becoming
depleted and exterminated and con
ditions with reference to game and
fish are very unsatisfactory to the
great body OF sportsmen in the
state,
Now, therefore. we, the undersign-
ed. being members of the Colorado
Game and Fish Protective associa-
ton. and local association. residents
Of Delta county, state Of Colorado,
do hereby express ourselves as being
in favor of an Act to be introduced
in the 1925 session of the Colorado
Legislature, sponsored by the said
association, creating a State Game
and Fish Commission, this commiss-
ion to be non.political, and composed
Of sportsmen who shall serve with
out salary and being modelled in so
far as applicable to local conditions,
upon the Pennsylvania State Game
and Fish laws,
And. we respectfully and earnestly
urge you. as legislators Of this state,
actuate. to advocate and support the
passage OF this measure.

Vast Stores of Gold
Apait Lucky Finders

What becomes Of gold1 1t has many
channels Of disappearance, according
to experts. Figures show that more
than half Of the annual output Is en-
ployed In the fine arts and jewelry
trade. Thousands Of pounds also are
used by dentists, according to Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine. one estimate
being that over ton is needed every
year for the filling OF teeth. Then
money is worn in handling. this loss be
ing one and quarter million dollars
annually. Bank Of England soverelgns
are often tested and found to have lost
much OF the original weight
OF the immense quantities of the
precious metal that have been buried
away in the earth. 1t is believed COM
paratively little has ever been recov-
cred. The priests OF Peru are said to
have buried approximately ten million
dollars worth OF treasure to preserve
It from the clutches of their perse-
cutors None OF this has been found.
The tombs OF the old kings Of Egypt
were treasure houses, immense quanti-
ties Of gold and Jewels being Inferred
with them. II has been estimated by
historians that Alexander the Great
became the master OF great boards OF
gold. all OF which, so far as is known
has vanished.
