Treasure Myth Punctured.

A MYTH persistently circulated for
years that treasure Is buried in
the ruins of the Franciscan mission
at Tumacacori Ariz., has been respon-
sible for much vandalism by would be
treasure hunters.
Letters to the Department of the
Interior regarding the alleged buried
treasure bear such sincere conviction
Of belief in the myth that Arno B.
Cammerer, director Ct the National
Park Service, has seen fit to reply.
1T is astounding how the rumor
of buried treasure persists in connec.
ton with Tumacacori Mission" he
says. Previous to Government oper.
ation the area has been searched con.
tinuously with only disappointment
for the searchers. During the past
year the Government has done some
excavation so as to present better the
historical picture. To date the finds
have been limited to utensils. Expe-
rience lends no support to the idea
that buried treasure exists. 1t Is the
firm belief Of all Government men
best able TO know that the rumor
about bullion is pure fiction and that
disappointment and wasted time and
energy await every one who pursue
this unfounded rumor relating to
buried treasure In this area"

great revival of hand-weavins In
Tyrolian districts. The reason for the

Men, women and children will be
there to participate In contests for

and group singing Of folk hymns, or

dulcimer-a homemade instrument of

games almost literally "as old as the

events during the day, the contestants
will make a night of 1t with square
dances and frolics from sundown till

performers with the interest Of the

late their old-time tunes TO the whole
field of music for the benefit Of the
thousands of spectators.

Eddie Bowling was invited to
speak at a farewell dinner given

He was supposed to be humorist.
