Monkeys Really Have a Language
Interesting Experiments of Professor K. [. Garner in

was simple. If one were to remain in
the jungle he must needs be protected
against s~erpents, leopards, and all sorts
of beasts, to say nothing of insects.
Garner sailed from New York in July
of 1892 for the port of Gaboon in the
French Congo, where he arrived in Oc-
tober. He assembled the Ogawe River
to Lake Ferran vaz, in the country of
the Nkamis, a couple of degrees from
the equator, and entered the jungle in
1898, with a tame chimpanzee whom
he named Moses" and a little native
boy. For 112 days he was alone in the
jungle.
1t was with the chimpanzees that he
had most to do. They seemed to him
to rank next to man, the gorilla coming
next, with the gibbon and the orang-
utan third and fourth. Here he found
that the chimpanzees had a vocabulary
of twenty-five or thirty words which
he recorded and ten of which he sue
ceeded in learning. Altogether in vari-
Gus monkey tongues he has recorded
over 100 distinct words" and has
learned some thirty of them himself.
The triumph came when Moses
learned a word that Professor Garner
taught him. He tried the English
mama, the French feu (fire), the Ger
man vie (how), and the Miami nkgwe
mother). For mama Moses learned
to move his lips properly but coul ut
ter no sound: for feu he actually came
to say ''vu;' for vie he said what
sounded like a German "ue," and the
Miami wordNhe never mastered, though
natives claimed that some monkeys had
been taught their language.

Hon. the Emmanuel Movement Differs
From the TenetS of Christian Science
Self Confidence, Peace and COur-
age Qualities that Are In
stilled by More Recent Cult.

The Emmanuel Movement admits both.
In fact, DR.. Worcester requires thai
those who come to him for relief shall
first have consulted a competent ply
stefan and be able to present his dag
nosis. For his reason the Emmanuel
Movement is on the best of terms with
the doctors, and several eminent ply
sicians are members of the board which
has supervision of 1t.
The distinctive work of the En-
manuel Movement is with nervous and
with clearly functional troubles-that
class of troubles which have their root
or a root in the mind.
Christian Science claims to do away
with all disease. Another difference be-
tween Christian Science and the EN-
manuel Movement Is that the latter in
exceptional cases employs hypnosis, but
only in cases where many reputable
physicians would employ it.
1 should like to add that another diff
ference between the two Is that Chris
tian Science is obviously religious,
whereas the Emmanuel Movement,
though started in a church, and in the
hands of ministers, is not essentially
religious at all. But DR.. Worcester
would never agree to this, n GER
tainly he ought to know. However, |
believe it, just the same. 1t is a good
work, but 1t is not a religious work.
The religion associated with 1t is an
artificial addition that will in time
drop off.
The Emmanuel Movement properly
belongs within the sphere of the healing
art 1t has called attention to a truth
known to, but largely ignored hitherto
by, the medical profession. Medical
science is, however, preparing to claim
it's own; and probably in time mental
healing will be included as a speciality
within that profession. The Emmanuel
Movement, as such, will disappear, but
the work will go on. No man should
presume to practise this art who has
not qualified himself by years Of study
and preparation, any more than he
should start out to practise medicine Oh
law or plumbing or teaching or engi-
neering, equipped only with good inten-
tions n nerve. We may confidently
look for a train of quacks and s~ciolist;
in the wake Of the Emmanuel Move.
ment, as in the wake of every other
useful movement.

Rev. DR.. E. A. WATSON Points
Out the Conflicting View
points of the Two Faiths.
BY THE REV. DR.. E. A. WATSON.


-sHE REV. DIR. ELWooD
WORCESTER, rector of EN-
manuel p. e. Church, Boston,
began about three years G the work
which has since grown into the En-
manuel Movement" His invaluable
collaboration was and is the assistant
minister of the parish, the Rev. DR..
Robert Samuel McComb. There was no
thought at first of inaugurating an ex-
tensive movement" But it seemed to
these ministers as though the church
in general did not offer the people what
they needed and wanted most, namely,
elf-confidence and peace and courage.
Now, DR.. Worcester had been a careful
student of psychology for years, having
studied this subject under some of the
most eminent specialists in the world.
1t occurred to him that in this science
and art might be the secret of what he
was looking for. So, with DR.. McComb
he began to use his expert knowledge
of the mind for the relief of the
troubled. Their effort was and is to
fortify the resolution, to brace the will
and to inspire hope, where the troubles
are substantial, and where they are in
Part or in whole the product of
Imagination, of brooding, of baseless
apprehensions, and the like, to restore
the mind to a normal condition where
these superfluous worries and fears
shall simply fall away and disappear.
Religious appeal has its place in this

II Z was with the bright little Capuchin
A monkeys that Professor r. l.. Gar
ner had the greatest success, n
he managed, after considerable trouble,
to learn nine words writes Arthur
B.. Reeve on the language of monkeys
in January Hampton's Magazine. One
of them sounded like ~"who-oo-ow,"
rich and musical. 1t means food-the
central idea of a monkeys mind. He
also found that it meant ito eat" and
expressed a feeling of hunger"
Naturally the monkeys nave only a
very limited vocabulary, and one sound
has to do duty for many ideas. OF
course, too, they have no such thing
as grammar, no sentences; their ideas
are only very simple and rudimentary
all grouped about one simple root
sound.
For instance, Professor Garner found
that the word for drink was a faint
cultural 'ch" gliding into the French
ECU and ending in a faint ~" That
also meant thirst All words seemed
to refer to natural, physical wants, and
all were difficult to write in letters.
Thus, as near as it can be written,
'e-c-g-k" in Capuchin means "Danger!"
One. of the most remarkable things is
that monkeys seldom talk when they
are alone. Clearly, then, their utter
ances are Speech"
After this start with monkeys in cap
tivity Professor Garner made up his
mind that the next step was to sec
them at home in their native jungle.
He had been studying monkeys in
cages; now he proposed to go to their
country and study them, Gagged HIM
self. The reason for his living in a cage

work, but the real basis of 1t is a scien-
tific psychology.
The one feature common to the
Emmanuel Movement and Christian Sch
ence is the communication to the suf-
ferer of a strong faith that casts out
fear. But the methods and appeals are
quite different. The Emmanuel Move
ment rests on science, not some subli-
mated unscientific science, but the sci
ence Of the schools, the science of the
men who have spent their lives In the
study of the mind and are recognized
as eminent in this subject. Christian
Science, again, denies the reality of
the material body, n consequently
the reality of disease. h Emmanuel
Movement ssum both, as Christian
Science has no use for doctors or drugs.

Wound and Removes Coverjno

SULPHUR: Charged with cutting
and tearing the scalp of Dan Dirgin
Indian fashion and then hammering
the bleeding wound with a probe and
using rock as a hammer, while
searching for an imaginary wound,
DR.. Harry Of Crusher has been
brought here and placed under the
care OF guards and doctors following
the charge Of murder made after Dir
gr died in the physicians office.
Drgin staggered into Harry's office
while the surgeon was performing
minor operation on another patient.
Witnesses declared that Origin was
dunk. but Harry declared that he
had been wounded by blow on the
hcad and decided to operate imme-
d:ately for the imaginary wound.
Calling to his assistance two men
who happened to be passing the Of
flee Harry ordered Dirgin placed upon
a bed, in the absence Of an operating
table.
Selling keen bladed surgeons
knife. he slashed the scalp of the un-
conscious man from front and back,
then grasping the ragged edges with
his fingers, he pulled the scalp away
from the skull while Dirgin groaned
in unconscious pain.
Harry then took probe and ham
mering with whet rock about over
Origins skull. tried to find the sup
posed fracture. Failing, he cooly
sat on the bed beside his victim and
smoked a cigarette.
The helper. suddenly suspecting the
physician had gone mad, notified the
officers of the bloody operation ana
called another physician in an effort
to save Origins life. He died shortly
afterwards.
There is no question in the minds
OF the officers as to Harry's insan-
ity. Since the tbloody deed he has
become almost unmanagable. 1t is
the belief that he is addicted to drugs
or liquor. Little is known OF him,
though unopened letters found in his
pockets indicate that lie has promi"y
nent relatives in Pennsylvania.
Origin. a one-armed man, was EN-
ployed as water carrier by thd

buried him at Crusher after coffin
had been sent at the county's expense
from Davis. He came here from
