The anclent inhabitants were bet- ter city planners than they were artists in other respects. Pottery re- mains discovered #o not display the same taste as those recovered at other places. As yet the excavations have not progressed far enough to reveal much concerning their daily lives. All that is known is that they were great builders and great plan- ners of citles. Just who were they? Nobody knows. says Mr. Myer. Beyond all doubt they lived and died Jong before the coming of the white men. The ruins show clearly thag the beautiful city on the river bank was destroyed by fire. Whether it wus destroyed after capture by an enemy tribe or otherwlse_there are not aven legends to tell. "When the first white men came into this section of Tennessee the Indians told them that their own forefathers had found these same re- | mains, silent and deserted. thing points to great'age.

Solemn high mass will be offered at the monastery of the Carmelites at 9 o'clock this morning. The celebrant will be Rev. M. J. Rlordan, rector of St. Martin’s Church, who will also de- liver the sermon in honor of Our Lady of Mount Garmel. - —— Your Boy—-ancl the Swavely School Unquestionably the most important link in the chain of a boy's education is the one preparing him for the college or university. That is the period the Swavely School serves. It takes your boy in hand—and by its own system of individualized in- struction makes him ready for that goal of your ambition for him. He can enjoy the facilities of the Swavely School—en- ter into all its student activ- ities—with residence at home. The day scholarships, however, are limited in num- ber—so that enrollment should be considered promptly. Father Riordan will be assisted by | Rev. D. C. Keenan, rector of St. Vin- cent De Paul's Church, as deacon of the mass; and Rev. W. Frank Schnee- wels, rector of the Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, as subdea- con.

The site was excellently selected, in two bends of the Harpeth river, near Kingston Springs. At present the country is wild and almost inaccessible, which accounts for the fact that the ruins have remained unexplored so long. On one bend is a great hill which had been artificlally shaped from bot- tom to top. Three wide terraces were I built at various levels.
