ten months and have two months "for
vacation and such continued training as
the board of education should advise"
Miss Byers said she did not violate
her contract, but merely failed to COM

returned to her home in Harrisburg, Pa.
She had been in the Norwood school
for one year and two months.

ESKIMO MUMM|ES
ARE ON WAY HERE

versity Museum of Finding
Prehistoric Specimens
PARTY AT NOME, ALASKA

A telegram was received today at
the University of Pennsylvania from
DIR. William B. Van Valin, head Of the
University Museums Arctic explora
tion party, who has arrived at Nome,
Alaska. DIR. Van Valin announced that
he had with him collection of extraor-
dinary value. including the mummies of
prehistoric Eskimos, which may clear
the problem of the racial origin of the
residents of the frozen north.
DR.. Van Valin said he would sail
from Nome to Seattle on October /.
He is expected to arrive in Philadelphia
with his collection in about three weeks.
In his telegram the explorer told of n
perilous journey through the regions Of
ice. The trip extended over period of
two years. At one time there was un
easiness concerning the party, as the
explorer was long silent. His message
from Nome caused rejoicing because of
the assurance of his safety and the
promise, of rich addition to the treas
ures of the museum.
Doctor Van Valin was accompanied
to the Arctic regions by his wife and
daughter. A second child was born
during the journey.
At the University Museum it was said
today that Doctor Van Valin 's>discovery
of prehistoric Eskimos had stirred tre-
mendous interest and that his specimens
and report on his observations are
awaited impatiently by scientists here
who have made study of the origin of
the natives of the Arctic.
As Doctor Van Valin said in his tele-
gram that the prehistoric Eskimos are
unlike the Eskimos of today, it was said, -,
his mummies may explode all present
theories as to the racial stock of which
the EskimOs are a branch.
