Carnegie Institutions Central
American Expedition Makes
Important Discoveries.
OLD CAPITAL IS ExCAvATED
Greatest Native Civilization Which
America Produced Once Flourished
in What Is Now Desolate and
Forgotten Region.

Washington.-After having discov-
cred and unearthed ancient and for
gotten cities that once were the CEN
ter of Americas civilization, and
after having begun to recover the an
cient learning for the Maya people
from their Indian descendants, the
Carnegie Institution Central American
expedition for 1921, which penetrated
the region of Guatemala, In the de-
partment of Peten, mt the base of the
Yucatan peninsula, has returned to
this city.
The expedition, under the direction
OF DR.. Sylvanus G. Morley, associate
In American archaeology of the insti-
tuition, left Washington early in Janu-
airy. The other Investigators were DR..
C. Il. Guthe and William Gates, both
research associates of the institution.
The activities of the field season
consisted of the exploration Of the
forests of northern Peten in search for
new centers of this ancient civilian
ton under the direction Of Doctor
Morley, the excavation of Tayasal, the
last liza Ga Maya tribe) capital, To-
Gated upon ain Island in the Lake Of
Peten liza, In northern central Peten,
by Doctor Cutie, and first-hand
study of the Maya language as spok-
en- today In northern British Honduras,
and also by the Quiche, Maya tribe
living in the highlands of Guatemala,
by Mr. Gates.
Unearth Ancient Cities.
Following along the chicle (the SUBJ
stance from which chewing gum Is
made) trails which traverse this re-
gion, Doctor Morley's party discovered
several new cities during the course Of
the field season, in what appears to
have been the very heart of the old
Maya empire.

Dancing Helps
Heart Patients

For two seasons past a dancing class
FOR cardiacs under eighteen years has
been conducted, under medical and
nurse watchfuness, the instruction
being given principally by stronger
patients Of this group.
CLASS attendance is compulsory as
soon as the heart strength Is 'consid-
cred adequate. The weaker and more
difiident are gradually indicted. Many
cardiacs have given special fancy
dances In entertainments. This high
ly diversiOnal exercise Is not stressed,
but Is, included In the direction, ito
begin to walk, coast, golf, dance, etc,
as soon as you feel able" Resident
physicians orders are occasionally
given for more or less or none of these
various exercises.
How Patients Are Affected.
For six months the dancing is out
OF doors. The spectators, too, are
strongly affected for good, Doctor
Brush asserts. One hardly recognizes
these patients at such functions; they
show color, animation, strength, good
posture; pains and neurotic depres-
sions have actually disappeared-and
are the less likely to return. IT can
dance again!" Is valued expression
by patients.

ALLURING GARMENTS FOR KIDDIE.s
Designers Have Outdone Previous e.
forts in Providing Winsome Attire
for Children.

Chlldren's garments are more allur-
signers seem to have outdone all pre-
vious efforts along that line. The
shops are filed with pretty novelties
that may be purchased all ready to
wear, or that serve equally well as
suggestions for the benefit of the
mother who makes her children's
clothes.
Little kindergarten designs in the
form of small sun-bonneted figures are
appliqued on frocks and aprons to
form pockets. These pockets may be
made of the same plaid material used
for cuffs and sash, or match the dress
and embroidery cotton.
There is very pronounced fancy
this summer for hats and bonnets to
match all frocks designed for members
of the younger generation. When the
frock is of the tailored type. a straw
hat is often preferre6 to one made Of
fabric, but II the dress II at all Of the
lingerie type, then tie preference
seems to be for fabric hats or bon
nets. Lovely organdie hats are often
trimmed with bands or appliqued mo-
tifs Of checked Bingham. Such hat
may be worn either with an organdie
or Bingham frock., Many dainty Ut
tie hats are made Of colored dotted
swiss. or Of colored dotted swiss In
combination with plain color or white.

scheme Of hat and frock. Many moth

Find New Cities
of Ancient MAYA

Doctor Guthe's excavations at Tay-
asal proved equally fruitful. The prin-
cipal plaza of that city was located,
and the work of clearing away the
earth and fallen masonry from the
principal structures was commenced
The peninsula of Yuca,an juts up
into the Gulf of Mexico like the great
thumb of giant hand, pointing north
ward. 1t Is $50 miles wide, and be-
fore 1t finally takes root III the CONT
mental land mass far to the south,
gradually merging into tile foothills
of the Cordillierra, 1t Is 400 miles long.
This region, limestone formation
of recent geological age, has gradual
ly emerged from the floor of the Car
ibbean sea, and Is now overgrown
with dense .sub-tropicaI jungle. Ii
supports, in fact, an almost continu-
Gus forest of mahogany, rubber, Santa
Maria, ceiba. chico-sapote (the Chew
ing gum tree), and many other SUBJ
tropical trees, which so completely
covers the country that one may trav-
el in this bush for days without see
ing an open space large enough to ac-
commodate modern bungalow com
fortably.
In this now desolate and forgotten
region there developed during the
first fifteen centuries Of the Christian
era the greatest native civilization
which America produced, namely. thar
of the ancient Maya of southern Mex
leo and northern Central America.
Here great cities grew up, filed with
temples, pyramids, palaces and mon
asteries, built of finely carved lime
stone, which were grouped around
paved squares and courts.
Once Brilliant People.
In these spacious plazas beautifully
sculptured monuments were erected,
their sides inscribed with elaborate
hieroglyphic writings, setting forth inn
portant historical and astronomical
facts. A dense population, highly or
ganized under strongly centralized
governments, flourished in the region,
the vanguard of civilization in the
New World.
But In the course Of centuries pes
thence, drought, civil war and famine
overlook the Maya, so that when the
Spaniards landed on the east coast Of
Yucatan in 1851, under Francisco de
Montejo, the last remnant of this once
brilliant people fell an easy prey to
the shock Of foreign conquest, and they
were speedily reduced to dependence
and slavery. Their once magnificent
cities were abandoned, vast sections
being actually depopulated, and the
tropical jungle again crept over the
region, until today these former CEN
tiers of life and human activity lie
buried in the grip Of dense forest,
and crumbling walls and piles of fall
en- masonry overgrown with giant
trees alone bear melancholy witness to
former pomp and glory.
Investigations In this remote and
inaccessible region may only be car
ried on under enormous difficulties.
1t Is only very slowly, with infinite
pains and at high cost, that this region
Is being made to yield Its archeolog-
ical secrets and the truth about our
foremost native American civilization
is gradually being made known.

you may be caught with nothing to

CHAPTER TEN
The Day of Reckoning.

On entering the living room she
heard a clock strike. Immediately she
paused, counting.
Eight chimes died singing in the
scented evening hush; but she did not
stir, her pose remained TINT of one
arrested sharply in some act of charm
ing stealth, so delicately poised in
apprehensiveness she seemed scarcely
to touch the floor. The room was
quiet, dim, with shadows, but for her
self untenanted.
A slight sound drew her attention.
She discovered dining room beyond
the living room. Soft-footed, n Japa-
nese boy in'white linen appeared, car
rylng two candelabra Of three branches
each, and vanished after placing them
upon the round dining table, where

The reminiscent feeling was now
more than ever strong, more insistent.
The old Saw failed: for once history
was retelling familiar chapter. All
that she was experimenting, emotion

was mere repetition-all this she had
known before.
Precisely as now had Mario carried
her down the stairs Of the burning

into a waiting motor-car, shut the door
and, as the driver jockeyed a way

Or was it Leonora to whom these

were happening again?
Was this too a dream?
Without one regret she resigned her
self to the dominion of dream; and
ability to discriminate between illusion
and actuality lapsed into unlamented
abeyanse. So with sense of personal
