the Teddy button, showing Theo

And everybody wore a badge or
a medal. Every boy in school was
tagged, and the politics of his family
was made clear to anybody who
would take the trouble to look at his
medal.
"Celluloid buttons were unknown.
The medal badge was yellow or
white metal circular rim as large in
circumference as the old copper
cent, inclosing portraits of the can
didates suspended by narrow silk
ribbon. Those were the days when
there was no lack Of campaign en-
thuaiasm, and much of it found it's
vent in paraphcrnalia which has
come into diSuse. Wherever there
was an outdoor meeting at that time
there were bonhres, and on election
night barrels, boxes and anything
hat would burn, unless it was nailed
down or closely guarded, would be
appropriated by the coming man as
fuel for victory fires
"When Lincoln ran the second
time, with General George B. Nc
Clellan as his opponent, the election

"Why has the campaign button
been discarded? Are the men and
Women who will decide the contest
unwilling to be known as favoring

This question was asked at the
Republican National Headquarters,
and B. e. Hugh,s in whose depart

said:
Not at alle The campaign but

these reasons is the service button.

most conservative stages furthest
from 1t. 1t is not in Australia that
we should look for the ancestry of
man, but in Asia.
"Whether the evolution Of q race
be regarded as conditioned wholly
by the external environment or as
partly or chiefly dependent upon
(unknown) Intrinsic factors it is
admitted by every one that it did
not appear and progress simultane-
ously and ~quo pede over the whole
surface of the earth, or even over
the whole area Of great continent.
The successive steps in the progress
must appear first IN some compara-
lively limited region, and from that
region the new forms must spread
out, displacing the old and driving
them before them into more distant
regions. Whatever be the causes of
evolution, we must expect them to
act with maximum force in some one
region; and SO long as the evolution
is progressing steadily in one direc-
ton we should expect them to con-
tlnue to act with maximum force in
that region. This point, then, will
be the center Of dispersal of the
race. AT any given period, the most
advanced and progressive species Of
the race will be those inhabting that
region; the most primitive and un-
progressive species will be those re-
mote from this center.
New-York tribune., 1920-10-31
In a Central Region

IF the environmental conditions
in the center Of dispersal pass the
point Of maximum advantage for the
race type that is being developed and
become unfavorable to its progress,
we should find it's highest types ar
ranged in a circle around a central
region, which was the former point
of dispersal, and the more primitive
types arranged in coucentric ex-
ternal circles. The central region
will be unoccupied or inhabited by
specialized, out not higher adapta-
tions.
"All authorities are to-day agreed
in placing the center Of dispersal Of
the human rGce in Asia. Its more
exact location may be differently in
terpreted, but the consensus Of mod
ern opinion would place it probably
in or about the great plateau Of
Central Asia. In this region, now
barren and sparsely inhabited, are
the remains Of civilizations perhaps
more ancient than any OF which we
have record Immediately around
it's borders lie the region Of the
earliest recorded civilizations--of
Chaldea, Asia Minor and Egypt to
the westward, of India to the south,
of China to the east. From this region
came the successive invasions which
overtlowcd Europe in prehistoric,
classical and medieval times, each
tribe pressing or the borders OF
those beyond il, and in it's turn being
pressed on from behind.
The whole history of India is
similar-of successive invasions
pouring down from the north. In
the Chinese Empire the invasions
came from the west. In North
America the course Of migration
was from Alaska. spreading fanwise
to the south and southeast and con-
tinuing down along the fanks Of the
Cordilleras to the furthest extremity
of South America. Owing to the
raciltles tor southwark migration
afforded by the great Cordilleran
ranges, the most remote parts Of the
New World are the forests of Brazi
and of northeast South America. In
the northern continent Florida is the
most distant from the source of
migration.
