ONE PLAYGROUND
REMAINS OPEN
ReOpening of Schools Closes
Pine Street and Vest End
Outing Places

Several hundred children have. by
the recall to school, been taken away
from their games in the city's three
Fairgrounds. Both the West End and
the Pine street Fairgrounds have been
closed, and now the most important
playground, that on French street, has
omitted the morning session that has
been so great an attraction TO nearly
400 children who attended daily dur
ing the summer months
And this is not ALL As soon as the
schools shall have resumed morning
and afternoon sessions, as usual. the
French street playground will be
closed to remain open only on Satur-
days. and then only until cold weather
So attractive has the playground
proved that Miss Elizabeth Talley, Of
the New Century Club. who is volun-
teer supervisor, has deemed it wise to
make the new arrangement in order
that school children will not be tempt
ed to play truant
As a result Of the omission Of the
morning session the playground has
become more precious to the children
in the vicinity than ever, and since the
closing of the Pine street playground,
many come from even there to enjoy
its privileges. The ground Is now open
from o'clock until o'clock in the
afternoon, and the average attendance
every afternoon is between 800 and
400. In spite of this large attendance,
the young women who have volunteer
ed to take care of the children have
not experienced any difficulty.
The opening on Saturdays after the
schools shall have resumed all day
/ session win particularly be for the
benefit of the larger boys. who desire
to take up the more vigorous games OF
autumn, such as football. The ground
will be closed. of course, as soon as
the weather is so cold as to be dis
! agreeable.
Miss Mary w. Green, Of Newport
and Miss Ethel King, both Of the New
Century Club, have supervised the
playground during the absence Of Miss
Talley, who has not been able to at
tend owing to illness. The youne
women have become highly popular
with the hundreds Of girls and boys
who play on the ground, and theil
task has become a pleasant one rather
than a burden.

MAY TRANSPLANT
VITAL ORGANS.
Scientist DecIsres Transfer From
Lower Animals to Man May Soon
Be Possible.
--------a@ Jsss,7A'
.s.tn-.-...gssl. :.IsEIsrszs.eysVS


According to Professor Simon
Flexner, of the Rockefeller Institute
for Medical Research, medical science
soon is to solve the problem of trans,
ferring sound vital organs from the
lower animals to man.
This prophecy was made in paper
by Professor Flexner, read at Chi
cago by DR.. Ludwig Hektoen before
the physiological section Of the
American Association for the Adj
vancement Of Science.
The technical surgical operations
involved in this kind of experimental
ton, on account of the necessity Of
maintaining unimpaired the circula-
ton of the blood, is great, but not
impossible of achievement, and no
effort should be spared to reach this
goal" says Professor Flexner. 1.-THE
functions of transplanted organs are
maintained by the method of the
preservation of the circulation.
Hence, it now becomes possible to
place sensitive and important yiscera
under new experimental conditions,
which may aim to resemble or pro-
duce those believed to give rise to
common pathological states in man
and to observe the effects over a long
period of time. ,~~e'
''It is matter of no small sfgnifi-
canoe that arteries can be transplant
ed successfully from dog to cat and
vice versa, and from man to dog, and
that keeping extirpated arteries
under sterile conditions at refrigera-
tor temperature for twenty or thirty
days or even longer does not inter-
fere with the results of transplanta-
ton.
There is something extremely sub
tie in the conditions underlying sue
cessful transportation within one
race, since it may be determined by
such minor factors as environment
and mere quality of food. A tumor
which grows in Danish white mice
may fail utterly to grow in Berlin
white mice, and one which grows in
Berlin mice and is unable to grow
in Norwegian mice may lose its ca
pacity to grow in Berlin mice tran
sported to Christiana and kept there
for period before incubation. -

unearthed with other skeletons from
mounds by r. F. Glider, Professor e.
H. Barbour, OF the University of Ne
braska, and others, last year, is per-
haps Of greatest present interest. 1t
has been discussed in print by some
Of the leading men Of science in the
country. The most significant bones
lay deep down in the mounds below
others above them. An exhaustive
examination of them, however, has
led to the following conclusions:
IF the present knowledge concern
ing these specimens is impartially
considered, it is apparent that the
theory of more than recent geolog-
ical origin of any OF them meets with
serious objections, while on the other
hand, no insurmountable obstacle ap-
pears in connection with the assump-
ton that all are comparatively recent.
"Burrowing animals might well
have carried bones through their tun-
nels to deeper levels. There are
marks Of gnawing on some of the
deep bones; they are just like bones
at higher levels as far as discolora-
ton, consistency and markings go.
Some of the deeper bones have been
scratched by some sort of knife, and
similar scratches are on recent bones
in the same mounds. Skulls of low
foreheads and pronounced ridges, like
one of these, occur occasionally
among modern Indians; in fact, there
is little to support classification
of the bones found in the ancient soil
apart from many others Pounds near
the surface. This has led me strong
ly to question any claims of antiquity
for the Nebraska remains.
I'm connection with these investi-
cations, / have recently completed ex-
tensive studies of large number of
skulls in the collection of the United
States National Museum. Among
other things, these studies have es-
tablished the fact that no great re-
lance can be placed upon low, slop-
ing forehead and prominent ridges in
determining the degree of develop
ment or the antiquity of skulls.

Of Lord Kelvin that at Glasgow ne

This was always received with an

always said "Silence!" One day the

First Aid to the Uniniured.

"A young lady had a rather embar-
RAISING experiencein aLondon church
last Sunday. She accidentally let her
handkerchief fall. BY repeatedly
STOPPING to reach it furtively she at
tracted the attention of the gentle
man in the pew behind, who thought
she was about to faint. With the
best of motives, therefore, he took
her gently under the arms and raised
her up, greatly to her surprise. AS
she tried to release herself another
gentleman went to her assistance,
and before the lady knew what was
the matter they we're moving her out
into the aisle, and, indeed, carried
her into the vestibule before she
could recover sufficiently from her as
constituent to find words for protest.
The finale, of course, was ludicrous
in the extreme.-London Tribune.
