Pits several feet deep and now partly filled with dirt 'have been found in the vicinity of Golden Valley,. Dodge and Halliday, N. D., giving evidence of flint mining Op erations conducted by the Redmen. Dark brown stone, known as smokey quartz, was the predom inating mineral matter used by the early day Indians in this sec tion, t The stone was used to fash ion arrow heads and primitive axes. For many years flint weapons made from smoky quartz have been uncovered in abundance oh sites ' of abandoned Indian villages of the Missouri River Valley and in other localities of this and ad joining states. . The greatest single source of most flint used by Indians has been found in the Knife River Val ley near the Killdeer mountains in northwestern North- Dakota. It is believed that the valley was so named because of the crude knives hacked from the flint found in that "region. PRESS TO BE PERCHED IN QUEER PLACES IN LONDON Five hundred reporters and at least 200 ' cameramen will occupy high-priced seats and special perches along the route of the cor onation procession. That many more will "work" the crowd for human-interest material. Average price of the 500 seats alotted to reporters is about $7.50; the cameramen must plank down an average of $15 for their pitches. Reason for .the difference in prices is that many special "nests" have been prepared for the pho tographers in and around statues and other peculiar places. 137 PROMOTED TO HIGHSCHOOL (Continued from Page One) Mae Edwards,' Mildred Louise Lit tleton, June, Thompson.

BLUE JAY IS WORST SCAVENGER OF WOODS JERjSEYVILLE, ILL. The worst scavenger of the woods is not the common crow, according to L. E. Grouppel of Rosedale, former coun ty superintendent of schools of Jersey county. The crow is bad enough, says Groppel, but the blue jay is more destructive of song and insectivorous birds' nests, eggs and young. iJiS V - ' The TRUE stor? . : -Jt Z." .
