LARGE PREHISTORIC FAMILY

 Everyone is familiar with clans and snails. and many are acquainted with the pearly or chambered nautilus. These shelidsh represent the three main classes of the MolIusca kingdom, which has existed since the earliest recognized advent of life upon the globe. many millions of years before man first inhabited 1t. The cephalo- pods, the class which includes the chambered nautilus. are, the most highly organized of all the Mollusca. They breathe by gills and are ex- clusively mariie The cephalopods have comparatively few representa- t1ves living today, yet in the past they were very abundant, the remains of over 1000 species having been found One of the subdivisions of the cepha- 1opods, the ammonoids, are now ex- tinct, but of this particular group no less than 5000 species have been tde- scribed from their fossil remains DuE- ing past geologic time these interest ing invertebrates were very abundant and may have been the masters or the sea for a, long period.
 To the scientist these fossil cephalo- pods are of especial value as markers of geologic time. They were so high Iy. developed as to be very sensitive to changes in the conditions of the sea and hence were constantly changing during the different geologic epochs.
