It is thor oughly uplifting aind beneficial. Its message is one of good cheer and encouragement. That is why a few iare willing to assume the financial responsibility of bring ing it back, from year to ycaK ! Thef e s much more than merely guaranteeing the financial end. There fare a few days strenuous labor as the time draws near in selling ' tickets- Many business people; help with this and are proud to have part in bringing tho Chautauqua back. Thus the real work of perpetu ating 'the Chautauqua as one of the splendid annual attractions of our city far-reaehing as any equal (effort of the entire year- is enjoyed by many beside the guarantors. - - . There Is toom for a number of men aind women who will help in secur'rhg advance pledges for tick ets, far next year, and who will assist! in selling tickets and deliv ering jthe same to pledged buyers about this time next year.

JUNGLE OF YUCATAN BEGINS TO DISCLOSE SECRETS OF MAYAS WASHINGTON, July 12 Ex cavation of Chichcn Itza. the once brilliant capital ot the lost ' Maya race, a civilization of American aborigines that, reared an amaz ing culture on this continent be fore the dawn of the Christian era and then disappeared, bequeathing ta posterity a vast riddle of ruined temples' and stately pyramids, has been begun under the direction of the Carnegie institute of Wash ington. ; ... . S .; . I' : ' . An expedition sent into Yuca tan, the site of the Maya's great est cultural achievement, early this spring, lias sent back to the institution here its first report .of actual progress on the task of dig ging the ancient metropolis; from its jungle covered grave in a gen uineeffort to solve the mystery of the origin of the people who built it. . fv Dr. Sylvanus G. Morley, associ ate of the Carnegie Institution in Middle American archaeology, is head of -the expedition', which reached ; Chicheu Itza May 18. btiice Uiat time the eicavators have devoted their unrestricted at tention to uncovering a feroup of pyramids and temples in the very heart of the buried city, known as "The Court of the Thousand Col umns." . J i Part of this has already been reclaimed, thn excavators j coming npon beautifully carved columns, whose numbers led to the name ascribed to the court above. In the course of their excavations the archaeologists, ur. Morley wrote, found a great; mosaic which had once graced the entrance to one of the temples in this court.

Dallas Observer. Some idea of the extent "and growth of automobile camping in the United States was revealed here today when the 1924-1923 Official Camping i and Campsite Manual came off the press and was put into distribution by th national headquarters of the American Automobile Association. According to the AAA an nouncement certain writers re playing up automobile accidents in an effect toward sensationalism, using the term i "murder" with reference to misuse of automo biles, and "slaughter to describe fatalities on the Rtreets and high ways. It is" pointed out by the automobile organization that this tends to complicate the problem, rather than solve It, by leading the public to believe that the matter is Eomehing beyond its control. 5. . i; j:
