PREHISTORIC ART

The oldest drawings in the world are believed to have been made about 25,000 years ago by prehistoric man in the caves of the Pyrenees Moun- tains, says a writer in Boys Life. Some of these pictures show remark able skill in drawing, suggesting that civilization was comparatively well advanced at this period. From the relics of this period it is believed that these men had a religion of some kind, that they buried their dead, were governed by chiefs and made instru- ments of flint. Examples of their painting and sculpture have been found. As man goes about the earth analyzing and dissecting every ob- ject, a great amount of scientific in- formation is being. gathered which will. some day enable him to solve this great mystery of his early his tory.
