other intermediate islands could communi- cate with each other before the arrival of Europeans, yet they one and all maintain that their respective countries at one time extended far west on the Asian side. More over with small differences, they all speak dialects evidently of the same language and understand each other with little diff flculty, have the same religious beliefs and superstitions, and pretty much the same customs.

Days of Enormous Animals.

Man at that time was gigantic in bulk compared with his present size. Those were the days of enormous animals, ot the pterodactyl, the megalosaurus, and other tremendous beasts, and the men were correspondingly large. In the old Morse and Greek mythology these giant races are remembered In Cornwall and in ancient Britain the traditions of these giants are excessively common. They are said to have lived down even to the time of King Arthur. In the new world are legends of giants living on the eastern slopes of the Andes and in Ecuador. If the fossil footprints at Carson Nev, are human they indicate gigantic men. and of their genuineness there can be no doubt. Over and over again the skele- tons of hypothetical giants have been identified with those of elephants and mastodons. In the journal of the An thropoogical Institute of a few years ago a giant race was shown to have existed at Palmyra. The colossal remains of col ossal structures at Stonehenge' Easter island, and elsewhere also point unmis- takably to the existence there at some period of giant human beings. Organs or vision were evolved in this third race, at first the single eye in the middle of the forehead, later called the third eye, and then the two eyes.

Gigantic in height, these men are pictured by Mrs. Besant and correspondngly broad, they give the impression of tremendous pow CT, as far beyond the men of our own gem eration as are the ancient gigantic ami mals beyond the oxen, deer, and pigs of today which have descended from them. "The head with retreating forehead the dully lurid eye, growing redly over the flattened nose, the projection of heavy jaws" all are characteristics of the third race giant. The memory of the third eye persisted in Grecian legend of the one eyed Cyclops.

Lemuria Was the Third Continent.

Lemuria Was the Third Continent.
 The third continent was Lemuria. The name was the invention of one P. l.. Sclater, who between 1850 and 1860 assert ed on geological grounds the actual exis- tence in prehistoric times of a continent which he showed to have extended from Madagascar to Ceylon and Sumatra. It included some portions of what is now Africa, but otherwise this gigantic con- tinent, which stretched from the Indian ocean to Australia, has now wholly dis appeared beneath the waters of the Pa cihc, leaving only here and there some of its highland tops which are now is- lands. The celebrated Sir Alfred Russell Wallace also agreed that India and Aus thralia certainly were once closely con- nected.
 After his prolonged investigations on the Mayland archipelago Sir Alfred conclud- ed that 'the only inference we must draw from these facts is undoubtedly that the whole of the islands eastward beyond Java and Borneo do essentially form a part of a former Australian or Pacific continent, although some of them may never have joined it.
 According to Haeckel. probably South ern Asia itself was not the earliest era dle of the human race, but Lemuria, continent that lay to the south of Asia and sank later on beneath the surface of the Indian ocean.
 Finds Proof of Theory.
 Prof. Schmidt writing in defense of Le- muria, declares a great series of animal geographical facts is applicable only on the hypothesis of the former existence of a southern continent of which the Aus tralian mainland Is a remnant.
 Tn addition to the scientists" he says. there is as evidence the most ancient trad nfx rio nd xxri1 1acr1 a1 ples, legends in India, in ancient Greece, Madagascar, sumatra, Java, and all the principle islands of Polynesia, as well as the legends of both Americas"
 Among savages and In the traditions of the Sansklrt literature of India there is an agreement in saying that ages ago there extended in the Pacific ocean a large continent, which by a geological upheaval was engulfed by the sea, Le- muria. And 1t is believed that all the islands from the Marayan archipelago to Polynesia are fragments of that once inn mense submerged continent. Both Nal acca and Polynesia which lie at the two extremities of the ocean, and which, since the memory of man never had nor never could have had intercourse with each oth- CT or>even knowledge of each other, have yet a common tradition, common to all the islands and islets, that their respect i've countries extended far into the sea that there were in the world but two i'm mensc continents, one inhabited by vel low and the other by dark men, and that the ocean. by command of the gods and to punish them for their incessant quar- reling, swallowed them up.

There is a Federation club in Bis

accomplished by it are recorded here
in order that the aim of the work

What the club is going can only be
told in part, but it's motto is progress.
In trying to reach the child in the
school they have planned to become
acquainted with the teacher-a recep-
ton is given each year in early Oc-
tober to the Bisbee teachers. In this
club there is found standing com
mittee to look after the establishment
and maintenance of a Kindergarten.
The Woman's club secured, by their
own efforts and through the aid of
New York friends, money enough to
fully equip the Kindergarten depart
ment in the Public schools. Nor was
their zeal abated until the finishing
touches were added and the Kinder
gartens of the Bisbee schools are an
object of profit to the young AID of
pride to the people.
Did they then fold their hands salts

another important addition in the
