CULTURE IN THE STONE AGE,
That Measure Of Il Existed Has
Been Abundantiy Proved by
Scientific Research.

The discovery Of certain caves In
southwestern Europe brings us near
to the men OF the old stone age. Their
history extends from tho close Of the
last glacial age, say $4,000 to 100000
years ago, to the arrival OF the men OF
the new stone age, perhaps 10000
years ago We now know that these
early men had crude form Of reli-
sion. that their dead were properly
buried. that among them were un.
doubtedly chiefs or rulers, and GER
tainly hunters and flint makers. Their
primitive implements are interesting
and surprisingly modern. For instance
they used toothpicks! So states the
director of the Ecole Odontotechnique
in Paris Now, however, we have other
evidence of an early age than its prim-
tive implements. II the industrial his
tory OF our race was begun by these
artisans they were succeeded by art
lists. To the stone Implements there
succeeded bone implements, and CO
incident with the bone there appeared
attempts at sculpture and painting. as
we now find from discoveries In
France and Spain. To get to the his.
tory of art therefore. we no longer
need to go to Egypt or Assyria. but to
the caves Of France and Spain. They
contain the first preserved paintings
How old are they? Anywhere from
$4,000 to more than 100000 years old
according to the authority consulted
What is Of more interest, however. Is
the fact that, MS these works of art dis
close. the cave mans life was doubt
less superior to that OF his nomad bro
ther of the plains. For. according tc
Prof George Grant MacCurdy of Yale
in the shelter and safety OF the rocky
Businesses centers of culture arose
The caves We're regarded. also, as ca
cred spots The ideas sculptured and
pictured there were often prayers for
success In the various struggles OF
men against animals, or of tribe with

much better and harder work than

and are weakened thereby at the be-
ginning Of the summer season. Give
them an occasional holiday or at

that, "AIl work and no play makes
