ABODE OF 'THUNDER BIRD" Indian Legend Concerning Tract In the "Bad Lands" Never Visited by White Man. ,? Half a dozen miles southwest of Scenic, S. I)., in the very heart of th? Had lands, Is nn area of approximately four squaro miles. No white man's foot has ever rested, there so far as cart bo learned, the Detroit News says. The Indians call the plot "sichi iunkoche," meaning "bad place." Deep canyons and gorges lend up to spire like pinnacles, and every attempt to follow their tortuous paths thus far has ended In falluro. Chief Flaming Arrow, a veteran of the frontier days, gives what probably Is the Sioux belief. Many years ago, the chief said, before the pale fuce came, hero Was the plaQe where dwelt the "Thunder Bird" high in the pin nacles of stone. This wall of rock kept out unwelcome visitors, the chief contended, and added that the pro tected area Is rich in food, sunlight and warmth, and has pure, cold streams of running water. Artistic Ancient Earrings. Within the last decade has occurred the return of the earring, so long laid aside. Few seen today, however, sur pass In taste and delicate finish the earrings of Blote, the daughter of Aristotle, which were found In Chalcls. where the young w6man was burled. These ornaments represented doves swinging In golden hoops. The minia ture birds were marvelously wrought, the feathers of granulated gold, ?the wings and breasts enriched with bands of color supplied by Inserted gems. Precious stones gleamed like tiny sparks for the eyes. Daintiest of all, the tail feathers were so finely made and curiously adjusted as to move at the slightest motion of the pendant loop, so that whenever the proud wear er should toss or shake her head two attendant doves would seem to bal ance themselves upon their perches as Uv^ birds do In swinging on a bough. Ancient. Temple of the Moon, believed to j he the oldest building on earth, is un covered by scientific diggers :i f Ur on j the lower Euphrates river. It was ] erected about 7,000 years ago, nnd was ! used continuously as a church for ; ?1,000 years. King Tut seems very aricient to us, yet here's a building that was about j centuries old when he was born. I Dlseovery of the Temple of the Moon j Is important. It helps confirm the ! scientific belief that the first civiliza tion was along the Euphrates.

DOG TAX. I wish to call special attention to the dog license* tax, which can be paid from October 1 f>t h , 1923, to February 1st, 1924. (February 1st, 1924, is the last day for the payment of this tax.) The license tax on each dog is $1.25, and 1 now have the license tags to supply owners of dogs when paying their license tax. A dog is liable to this tax if six months old or older on January 1st. (A dog born .June .'50th, 1023, is liable to the tax January 1st, 192 1.) This is in lieu of all other taxes or licenses on dogs, either county, mu nicipal or otherwise Dog license tax issued by the Treasurer should bear the inscription "l>ng License 1924." also show the serial' number and county. This is not charged on the Auditor's Duplicate, nor carried on tin- odinary tax re ceipt. Separate receipt necessary. I). M. McCASKILL, County Treasurer.
