OF the American bureau OF ethnology,

Verslty OF Texas. have located some
long'forgotten village sites. Their In.
Vestlgatlons lead 10 the belief that the
original people OF the middle part OF
the state were hunters. while those OF
the eastern part near the timber belt,
were followers OF agricultural pur-
suits and were skilled In the manufac-
ture OF pottery. They resembled the
mound builders. The western part NJ
the state was more elevated aud
less arid plateau. Here the people re-
sembled the Pueblos OF New Mexico.
Some OF the tribes are reported 20
have been cannlbals. In the opening
OF the eighteenth century Apaches,
Comanches and other savage tribes
roamed over Texas. following the buf.

There seems TO have been constant
hostility with these Indians. In which

Happy Valley is full and accurate
They are the people who lnhabit the
valley in the hill region along the
Ohio River, where drowsy keepers

Among these people Mr. Griffith
used to ramble as a boy, knowing
their cares and sharing their pleas.
