ing interview:
"If any person is in he next
couple of years to say howdy' to
the ancestors of Epithicanthropus
Erectus, the earliest man of which
any remains have been discovered
by science, it should be Mr.. Wal
ter Granger, paleontologist of the
Third Asiatic Expedition who is
now en- route to China on the
steamer Golden State, which arriv-
ed in Yokohama from San Fran
cisco yesterday afternoon.
"Mr. Granger, who has for a
number of years been connected
with the American Museum of Ma
tural History in New York and
who has just finished his first Pa
cific voyage, is going half way
around the globe to collect fosils
of prehistoric life in Central Asia
and to locate, if possible the ORR
ginal home of mantle Garden of
Eden as science has 'doped out
the genesis of the genus homo.
The expedition, of which Mr.. Roy
Chapman Andrews is the head is
to have a large number of scien-
lists, but the paleonlogist is the
man who is expected to locate the
remains of early man if they arc
to be found in the lowest deposit:
of gravel pits in Central Asia.
GAS the scientist expressed i
when seen on board the steamer
yesterday, I'm the man to do the
digging and if the acquaintance OF
the origina man sto be made mes
may meat. l shall go direct to Po-
kin where the headquarters of the
expedition are located, and then
spend the first three or four
months in reconnaissance work,
getting acquainted with the
people, learning conditions and
later collecting fossils in a general
way. / am not certain about the
winter, but | shlll probably go in
TO Southern China, and in the
spring Mr.. Andrews wants us all
to form caravan trip to explore
the southern edge of the great
Monaghan plateau. l expect to

1922, but may return the following
spring with the other members of

Speaking seriously about the
hope of the promoters of the ex-
petition to find the early abode of

Islands OF All Sizes

The Bay has a length from North
to South of one hundred and sixty
miles. 1t is separated from Lake
Huron by the Sangeen Peninsular and
Grand Mantoulin Island. Boats go
through this channel and also through
another passage between Grand Mani
touiin and the North shore. The is
lands are of all sizes from tiny rocks
barely emerging from the waves to
huge tablelands fifty miles in extent.
The largest - Manitoulin Island -
stretches from the end of the Great
Indian Peninsula to the La Cloche
regions--so called because when the
lofty masses of rock are struck with
an instrument they reverberate like
the loud tones of bell.
An ideal trip on the Georgian Bay
is through the thirty thousand islands.
The start is made from Penetang,
name derived from an Indian word
meaning trolling sands" 1t was near
here that Brule, the interpreter of
Champlain. was murdered by the
Huron Indians in 1882, and it was

Indian Legends
The very names of the towns and
islands are replete with suggestions
of early Georgian Bay days. There IS
a group of sacred Islands, of which
Grand Manitoulin is the largest.
Drummond, the Little Mantle ulin and
Grand Island are the others. The
Grand Manitouln is the sacred, lofty,
rugged island Of the Indians. 1t looks
from the waters like a series Of
plateaus. the land is fertile in parts,
it Is eighty miles long and its shores
are deeply indented with sounds.
Tradition says ii was the home Of the
good spirit. Gitchi-Manitou, and tho
dams have retained an ancient custom
of meeting once a year, and with wild
and fantastic contortioEs and dane
ings they go through the ceremony OF
shooting the bad spirit by firing n
volley. The life described by the song
of Hiawatha was that of those who
met before the coming OF the white
man. Longfellow, periodically lays
the scene of his poem on the shore of
Lake Superior, but 1t was really the
legend of Hiawatha. the God OF Wa
