NdO8E Muo nave the udDIl or Iuluk
ing that the original inhabitants
Of America were either straight
and blaek-haifed people like the Indians
with coppery skins, or little broWn-skinned
dwellers In the Pueblos Of the West, like
the Hopi indians, viii probably be Just as
surprised Is science now IL to learn that
100000 years ago, at least there lived in
Utah a red4haired presumably fair-skinned,
race.
1t may be that this vanished folk had
their abode IN other parts OF what is now
the United States There are legends ex-
tant of q fair people dwelling in the New
World long before Columbus discovered
it, and these legends are found in the very
oldest strata Of Indian folk lore. In the
light of recent discoveries science Is turn
ing away from its scornful disregard Of
these stories which II has hitherto re.
garded az absurd.
The mummies which have revealed the
existence Of these redhaired Americans
were found in caves under the houses Of
the Cliff Dwellers in Grand Gulch, south
eastern Utah. There is clear evidence
that they had entirely disappeared CEN
turtles before the Cliff DWellers-them-
abode within the precipices Of the canyons.
A number Of well-preserFed bodies, to-
gether with weapons, garments, basket
ware and utensils, are now under examina-
ton at the American Museum of Natural
History, New York. The public win not
be permitted 10 see them for some time,
as they are being studied by Mr. B. T. B.
Hyde, the museums expert, from whom
no statement will be issued until his re-
searches are complete. Other museums
at Harvard, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Yale
and Denver universities also have their
quota Of the mummies. But these institu-
tons win await the verdict Of Mr.. HYDE
before giving out any results Of their own
examination.
The bodies, although so ancient. have
been excellently preserved by the ex-
traordinsrily dry air Of the place in which
they lived and were buried. Their hair
ranges from what Is called Titan to a
violent red; the hair Of the babies and
youngsters is distinctly waVy.
At least one important fact can be de-
duced from this--the red-haired Ameri-
cans, whoever they were, did not come
from Asia as there Is good reason for be-
heVing the American Indian did. Anthro-
biologists have all agreed on Just three
types Of hair for mankind, existing and
extinct These types are straight black
hair, kinky hair and wavy blond hair.
All shades OF red are included in the word
blond. We do not know yet whether these
three types originated simultaneously IA
different sections Of the world, or whether
one type followed another, nor do we know
which Il the oldest or original tyne II
single origin OF mankind, q matter In
hypothetical dispute, be decided upon. But
we do know that the Asiatie, in its pure
stock, invariably possesses the straight
hair.
How did these people live and what was
1t that caused their extinction?
The hrst question we can answer-at
least in part-from the necessarily super.
hcial examination made of their homes

THE CHAPLAIN

And lit the front where still the battle ragged
And guns were sending messengers Of death,
a bugle called along the line engaged
Gave forth the Sound Of Heavens sweetest breath,
For Ioi the tones that struck the soldiers ears
We're sounds that told the enemy had fled.
And hope, unshackled from long toll and fears,
Arose in hearts that brayely fought and bled
Cease fringpt came the ever welcome call
That echoed down those bronzed and ,yar-worn ranks
Where stern-set faces, bathed il powdered pail,
We're turned above Ia ferpent PRAYER of thanks.
Then from the front rank stepped soldier form
Whose kindly face belied the cloth lie wore.
He held no arms save that forever worn
TO soothe the soul that life shall pain more.
The golden cross that rested on his breast
Gleamed ii the sun prophetic as the sign
That Constantine At Milsian Bridge oppressed
Saw glow iii heaven the arm Divine
lie raised his hand, and all that field was stiIled,
While mangied forms beyond IiEes further strife
Heard fail those words Of heavenly soiace hleds-
s. am the resurrection and the life
Then kneeling mid the wreck Of broken shell
And holding up that golden cross on high,
In solemn cadence came the words TO tell ~:
"ye who believe, though dead, shall never die. !"
The living gazed, awe-stricken at his form
The dying smiled and passed IN peace away,
Their labor done--tner cross had found the dawn
10 light their souls - God's eternal day
Then slowly rising from that stricken field.
He seemed as one who gazcd beyond this sphere
And heard celestial bells hi gladness pealed
TO welcome those who died for freedom here

Though frightfuI carnage marked is great event.
