The gibbon is the only species OF

Az Toto and his fellow gibbons

Professor Garner in defining
speech says: "Any oral sound volun-
tarily made for the purpose Of con-
veying . preconceived idea from
the mind Of the speaker to the mind
of another is speech. Any oral
sound so made and so discharging
this function in the animal economy
is speech"

Briefly. he says that the speech
Of monkeys and human speech re-
semble each other in all essential
points. The speech sounds OF
monkeys are voluntary. deliberate
and artieulate. The ape speaker, he
says, shows that he is conscious Of
the meaning he desires to convey
II the ape addressed does not re-
spond the sound is repeated.
1.-THE fact that animals are able
TO interpret human speech says
Professor Garner, sis Of itself
proof that they possess the speech
instinct. But a careful study Of
their habits reveals the further
proof that they possess and exercise
the faculty Of speech. In addition
TO these facts they sometimes ac-
quire new speech sounds. This Is
progress.
Toto has acquired new speech
signs. He has progressed.
IF an ape can take one step IN
the development Of speech, why may
he not take two7" asks Professor
Garner. Then he recites the story
Of the capture Of Moses, a baby
. chimpanzee, in wild papyrus

1t is to our bodies what coal is to

Every day we burn up certain
amount of tissue.
Therefore new tissue must be

fuel.
The food we eat makes this new
tissue and in healthy person gives
enough fuel to replace the loss.

the subject OF discussion before the
town council. DR.. Samuel G. Webster,
superintendent Of health. stated that
IN his opinion not any one person was
responsible for the Newton avenue
nuisance. The solution seems to be in
sight, he said, by the co-operation of
the town and property owners.
Dr.. John ChampIn said he hated to
be nuisance and that his property
was not when the water was permit
/ ted to flow its natural course to the
brook. When he built his first house
in Park avenue he walled up a drain
| and took the pipe into the gutter at
| Newton avenue, and spring or surface
water flowed through the pipe, and it
was II years before it was necessary
to clean out the ceSSpool. Oscar TefTt
| built home adjoining and there was
no trouble. DR.. ChamDlin said he then
| built another house and there was no
| cesspool nuisance. Irvine Chester ran
a pipe from one cesspooI to another
and this required frequent emptying.
! There was no trouble until the town.
| through the highway department,
| plugged the pipe and prevented the
overflow or liquid sewage to find it's
way TO the brook 1t was then it
| reached the cutters. Now his cess
| pool fills in ten days, and in the main
| by surface water or springs. If the
t pipe could be opened with outlet into
| the brook, the trouble would cease
until relief permanent came with the
| sewer system. Or the trouble could be
| overcome by pocket near the brook
with overflow into the brook.
George l.. Williams said the trouble
! began when the highway committee
! plugged the pipe and no relief came to
| anybody. He advocated piping to the
! brook.
The matter was further discussed by
