Are We Smaller or Larger?
Inc Brill car line, or at least one of
the cars of that line is attracting the
attention, and therefore the patronage,
OF a large number of persons who are
interested in biological research and
some OF them are of the opinion that
the construction and appointments of
that particular car disprove the theory
that Tor some years had obtained that
people are increasing in stature. That
theory rests upon the circumstances
mainly that ancient arTr1or which is
found in the museums is so small that
the average man of today would be un-
able to crowd himself into it. There is
hardly an exhibit of it anywhere that
even a medium sized man could don
That fact seemed to establish beyond
a douot That the men of centuries ago
We're smaller than men are today.
Therefore the scientific world was
astonlshed when it was heralded that
that particular Brill car furnished
proof to the contrary, and scientists
have come from all parts of the coun-
try to ascertain if this newly discov-
cred evidence really exists
This particular car of former CEN
fury concerning the original number
of which there is some dispute, was
equipped for straphangers, so that it
appears that in ancient times there
was not room for all who paid their
ever coin was in use in the country
at the time when the car was in its
prime.
But the interesting fact from the
point of view of the biologist is that
there are comparatively few living
people who can reach from the floor
to those straps so that there is ground
for believing that the ancients were
much taller than persons OF today.
This theory is adopted by all who
have weighed the evidence afforded
by the Brill car and they explain away
the evidence to the contrary furnished
by the exhibits of arpor in this way:
that this armor belonged to the
smaller and weaker knights, those more
easily overcome and captured, so that
all the arrnor that has been preserved
is that taken from the shrimps who

ART

Painting is mode of expression vivid as
writing" says John Sloan president of the Society of
Independent Artists.
mo if illiterate, would wish admit
he read But with satisfied smiles
that they know nothing whatever about art"
Artists lose by that. But the who loses most
by any persons failure to understand is that
person himself. Painting, music poetry exist to
give pleasure. The who shuts his mind
deprives himself of the pleasure find
The greatest pleasures always those
which cost most. One obtain greater
pleasure from visit to art gallery than another,
who lacked understanding, might obtain from life
long possession of pictures worth 100000.

ment of prohibition you might add the state of in

Olive Thomas Killed bv
Accident, Say Relatives

Relatives here of Olive Thomas, tn,
stage ard screen actress who died il
Paris Thursday under mysterious cir.
cumstances, made their first public
statement yesterday in connection with
the case. The actresses mother, Mrs
Harry NJ. Vankirk, and Miss Thomas
two brothers. William L. and James
Duffy, are all convinced their rela.
rive's death was an accident.
Mrs. Vankirk arrived here early yes
terday and is staying with her two
sons at the actresses former apartment
at 116 Central Park South. She said
she had the greatest faith in her
daughters husband, Jack Pickford
and was sure the death Of her daugh-
ter resulted from mistake. She last
saw her on August IL, when she sailed
from here for Europe.
There was nothing the matter with
Olive when she left for Paris" said
William Duffy, except a slight nerv-
BUSINESS which was really due to her
high-strung character. She and Jack
were on the best of terms, and as far
as we know had had no serious quar-
rels. Only two months ago Jack
bought Olive an automobile. On the day
they sai,eo I purchased an expensive
cane at the request of my sister which
she desired to present to Jack. My
sister confded all her affairs to me
and if there had been any trouble of
any kind she would undoubtedly have
told me of it."
William added that his sister was
always lavish with her money and was
particularly good to her mother and
members of her family.
Relatives estimate the value of the
cash and property left by Miss Thomas
at about 100000. Pickford is expect
ed back with the body in about week.
PARIS, Sept. 11.-An autopsy will be
performed Monday on the body of
Olive Thomas, it was announced to-
night. T'an autopsy will be under the
direction of the police
