HAVE ALOOK PHYTOSAUR; ROA AROUND
EARTH 100000 YEARS AGO; BONES FOUND

Out of the dust of ages comes
the phytosaur. What is left of
him is now on view at the Ameri-
can Museum of Natural History in
New York. The phytosaur was
found at Fort Lee and was at first
thought to be a dinosaur, but it
has been made plain, by later re-
search, that the reptile is a much
rarer specimen than the dinosaur,
and is one of a group long since
extinct, combining the character
istics of the dinosaur and the
crocodile.
According to the estimate of
geological time made by DR..
Charles d. Walcott of the Smith
sonian institute of Washington
we may ascribe to the Fort Lee
reptile an age of some 100000
years." says DR.. w. d. Matthews
of the scientific staff of the mu-
scum. ut is probably four times
as old as the four-toed horse and

about the shores of the Hudson
river before the formation of the
Palisades, according to the scien-
lists at the museum.
In the spring of 1910 a party of
postgraduate students of geology
at Columbia university set out on
a prospecting trip to the Pali-
sades.
The students stopped to rest at
the foot of low cliff of red shale
which rises ten to twelve feet
above the water and above an old
dock at Shady Side, which ex-
tends along the waters edge for
some distance. Here they noticed
on the weathered surface white
spots that looked like fossil bones.
They took fragments back to the
Laboratory and made a test of the
specimens. The analysis con-
firmed their thought and they
brought the fragment to the mu-
scum of natural history.

According to DR.. Matthews the

Alladin's Lamp, the Fountain

jured up at the proclamation by
DR.. Alexis Carrel--to use his own
published words--of the "rejuve-
nation of human tissues" after
their removal from the human
body.

fact that almost any portion of
our veins, nerves, muscles or in
testines may be summary re-

and allowed to multiply through
many subsequent generations.
DR.. Carrel's report of this mi
raculous discovery-that our cells

is most conservative. He states
that when arteries and veins re-

of his colleagues were placed in a

THESE CHRISTMAS SEALS

The truest and cheeriest tokens that Yuletide is
its way are the Red Cross Christmas seals.
They the earliest blossoms of good will lighting
the path to the years great festival as faithfully as
daodils herald the return spring. It is thus they
are welcomed in nearly every nation; for, though
the world has divers tongues and customs it is at
heart one. family and through its common human
sympathy it feels the mission and the meaning of
the Red Cross seal.
1t need scarcely be explained that the proceeds
from these seals, which sell for penny each, are
devoted to the Of relieving preventing the
distress of tuberculosis OF peculiar interest and
Importance however is the fact that the fund which
each community thus raises remains in that particu
lar community and is spent for its immediate local
needs. Thus the money which is derived from the
sale of the Red Cross seals in this city will go to the
maintenance of the Atlanta AntiTuberculosis and
Visiting Nurses association 7.est

public support The association is now caring for
nearly five hundred of tuberculosis sufferers
