BYZANTINE ART

 Historians use the word Byzantine to mean the Eastern Roman Empire. separated from the Western in 395 at the death of Theodosius the Great, and maintaining separate existence
 down to the capture of Constantine

 eastern empire the art which we call Byzantine. Broadly speaking, however, the limits of space and
 time above indicated do not hold
 for Byzantine art. for it continued even after that date. and extended beyond the empires boundaries, both
 east and west. as the art of the Orthodox or Greek church. It is still the style practised in the religious
 art of the Balkan States and Russia today. The language of the Eastern empire and the Eastern church was Greek, and the traditional Greek cul- ture was the determining factor as well in Byzantine art, in contrast to
 the medieval art of the Western
 empire, where the greater inroads and the lasting settlements of bar hrrian invaders eventually transform
 ed the Latin culture into one that was predominantly Teutonic. The art that Issued from this mixture of
 Teuton and Latin in the west was
 Gothic, the final expression of Latin Christianity, as the Byzantine was the final expression of the Christian

 type--the group of mother and child well represented by the Peace and Wealth" of Kephisodptos. In the "Gclden Virgin of America of the thirteenth century we see the trans formation of the type into terms of Franktsh emotion--the Virgin is great lady and . queen. but one sung by troubadours rather than by monks. and utterly unclassic in the aura of romance which she. carries with her.

DINOSAURS IN NORTHERN ASIA
 From Proving Asia the Mother of

 Continents, by Henry Fairfield
 Osborn, in Asia Magazine.
 MT. Andrews letter of May from Urga, describing the discovery of the first dinosaurs found in Northern Asia, is so dramatic that we may quote from it, with slight changes in phrasing:
 When we were half way across Mongolia, between Kalgan and Ur- gal. our attention was attracted by some interesting geologic exposures. and we stopped for camp. While we were preparing supper, Granger, Berkey and Morris, the three geo. logists of the party, began prospect- ing and within few yards of camp discovered some bones of dinosaurs This is the first discovery of giant reptiles. known as dinosaurs, in northern Asia. The region promised to be so interesting that I left the geologists and Persenlu, French mechanic, with all the food we had and pressed on with Colgate, our motor car operator and our photog- raphers, MT. Shackleford and Mrs. Andrews, toward Turin, 152 miles south of Urga, where we planned to find our caravan.
 i've reached Turin without sim gle accident and. as we approached the outskirts of this Mongolian town, we saw a large caravan and decided to camp. Then I suddenly recognized the American flag and realized that it was the caravan of the American Museum expidition. It had been five weeks on the way from Kalgan and had just arrived one hour before us. Pretty fine connection for a 700 mile journey across the plains, was it not? We went over to the great rocky out crop and pitched our tents. The caravan followed and reached our encampment one hour later. It was an inspiring sight as the 75 camels wound up from the plain with the American flag at the head. It made

The tariff gives rise to many highly technf- cal questions that are calculated to make the most judicial mind dizzy, and which have a real significance in dollars and cents to some one. An example Is the pending question whether wheat screenings are dutia ble at 10 per cent as a non-enumer- ated manufactured article or are free as wheat. What vii lhappen when shipment of 23000 pounds of goats boards reported as passing through the Panama canal, reaches the GUS toms there is no telling.

 OBSERVANCE OF LAW
By As.ociated Prom

New York, November 12.-Violation of prohibition laws was attributed by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in speaking to his Mems Bible class at the Fifth Avenue Baptist church today to q presumption on the part of citizens to choose which laws to observe and which to break.
 If We want changes in our laws and in our government" he said, we can do our duty in that respect at the polls and not by destructive criticism and deferision. No man is a good citizen who will obey one law and disregard another"
 MT. Rockefeller. declaring that 'hard work is now being regarded as unfashionable," criticised organized labor for seeking a shorter working day. The minimum working day pol icy, he said, is discouraging capital from putting money into industry.
 There is no better way to earn money than to save it. was Mir. Rockefeller's advice to the class. His father. he said, had. saved $5o,0o0 q year in one Gil refinery by ordering one drop of solder saved in sealing each can of oil.

 The Puget Sound region has for the first time in a5 years been in- vsded by the great Snowy owl of the Artic. This owl lives on small mann mals that have been driven south by excessively severe weather and 1t may have followed them into the United States in search of food; the blood stained feathers and fur of it's prey may be seen in every part of the region. These giant owls. some- times measuring six feet across the spread of the wings. have been known to attack a man.

Wantads work wonderfully.

the railroads at Winnemucca. Many
autos made this trip last summer.
1t offers a short and scenic route
for south-bound travellers from
southeastern Oregon and Idaho
points. The roads are of natural
mountain gravel, so never become,
dusty and in the driest part of the
year the distance between watering
places is not more than twenty
miles.
John Dooley, who has just come
over the road from the Spanish
ranch via Bull Head, is a booster
for this road, and is well acquainted
with the country, having punched
cows there for many years.
Bills for fees for grazing on the
forest reserve have been received.
One half the fee is payable on May
/, and the other half on December
1. The opening date for cattle on
the reserve is so late this year the
usual complaints about the lateness
of the opening date will not be
heard.

WOOL AND HIDE
TARIFF SETTLED

The duty placed on wool, in the
general traffic bill is thirty-three
cents based on secured content
and the thirty-three per cent ad
valorem limitation placed on wool
duties in the bill as it passed the
house has been eliminated by the
senate committee, according to adj
vices received today by the Ne
vada Live Stock Association, says
the Reno Gazette.
Hides have been taken off the
free list and the advices state that
an ad valorem duty of from ten
to fifteen per cent will be placed
upon them. There has been no
duty on hides since the Dingley
bill of 1897, when a fifteen per
cent duty was imposed.
''The measure as it comes from
the finance committee is reported
as reflecting the growing influence
of the agricultural bloc, it being
the sentiment of the committee that
the time has come when the man.
ufacturing centers of the country
must agree to protection for agri-
cultural products or lose the pro-
lection they themselves demand
says the advices received by Sec
rotary Metcalf.
at is also reported that in the
clashes which occurred behind closed
doors in the committee between the
agricultural West and the industrial
East, the bill as laid before the
senate will show that in most cases
the Western senators have emerged
victorious.
"Six week is reported as con-
sentative estimate upon the length
of time that debate upon the bill
will likely be INDUCED in by the sem
ate and July 1st is predicted as
the earliest date for expecting the
completed bill to be placed before
President Harding for his sigma
ture."
