The Nevada County picayune., 1913-11-07

After all guests had arrived the girls dressed as ghosts were auctioned off to the boys. and they were to guess their ghost. This was very amusing as there are but few boys who can talk and therefore could not get their ghost to talk and could not guess who they were.
 Before the ghost could reveal themselves everyone was attract ed to the dining room where there was witch tellingfortuees.
 Each girl and boy was told of their past and future.
 After this every one was serv- ed with home made candy, pop corn ball. apples, doughnuts and grape juice.
 When all had grown tired of being entertained they sat around the fire and told ghost stories. Then at eleven o'clock Mrs. Tavenner played Home Sweet Home" and all departed express ing themselves as having had the best time they had ever had on Halloween.

American CamelS.

But few special students Of extinct
races know that the camel originated in
America and used to roam its deserts,
dispensing to Asia in recent times, geol-
ogically speaking, from the westward
portion of this continent. A group of
fossil American camels has been INSTALL
ed in the Peabody museum AT Yale
part of the fruits of the Yale expedition
to Eastern Wyoming and Nebraska in
1908. Prof. Richard Swami Lull, of the
Peabody museum, who collected these
remains, says in the Yale Alumni
Weekly:
In strata from late eocene until the
glacial period are found camels in con-
tinuous evolutionary series, ranging in
size from that OF jack rabbit to that of
the largest modern dromedary. The
main line of descent led to perfection
for grazing habits and finally to that
marvellous adaptation to life in the arid
wastes, the ship Of the desert" There
were, however, at least two side lines,
one OF browsing camels, remains OF
which were also secured in zoos, culmi-
mating in a curious extinct creature
whose length of neck and limb is so ir-
resistably suggestive of the old world
giraffe as to argue similarly of habits
that is, browsing on the growing tops Of
trees in seml-desert regions.-Pittsburs
