Which II true shows the old renegade to have

This assyriologIst proves his case too. As
curator of tho Babyionlan section OF the unii
vcrsity museum he is said to have studied and
translated thousands OF ancient clay tablets
from the ruins OF Nippur, in ancient Babylonla.
Ono OF these tablets contains the story OF the
flood and SAYS positively that Noah IL tho

is no mention of any Eve in the story or

In tho interest Of accuracy and ralrpay we
suggest that the professor set afoot an inquiry to
determine whether or not Eve had any oppor-
tunlty TO cook up this story about female god
saving Noah. who then turned migrate and stole
the female gods apple, then slipped It into tho
historical library
The possibility worries us.
We would also have the professor make sure
