Stone Age Lasted
Late as Century
Ago, Scientist Says

VICTORIA, r. C.-The stone age
which, scientists say came TO an end
in western Europe about 1900 b. c.,
was carried on for more than three
thousand years later and in its most
characteristic form existed in British
Columbia up until as late as a century
ago in some districts, according TO find
ings OF archaeologists who have been
exploring some Of the old community
sites, mounds and aboriginal graves
along the coast and the interior Of the
province.
The stone age In British Columbia
has for many years been the study OF
scientists Of note who have been work

the story Of the evolution Of the pre-
historic civilization as exemplified IN

Last Rites Given
BattleShip Iowa
Before Sinking Il

PHILADELPHIA. Preparations
are going forward at the Philadelphia
navy yard toward placing the old bat.
tleship Iowa in condition for the day
shortly when she will be sent to Davy
Jones locker some place off Capte
Henry.
Besides having the reputation of an
old fighter, the Iowa may be better
known as the radio controlled vessel,
or the ship without a crew The radio
controlling, apparatus is being removed
from the Ohio, the Iowa's mother ship,
and being placed aboard the destroyer
Dickerson.
Escorted by the Dickerson, some time
the latter part of this month, the Iowa
under her own steam will take her
place in view of the whole Atlantic
fleet, it was stated, and then be sunk,
The idea OF dismantling a vessel that
has held its own at sea is to navy
men just as gruesome as an execu-
ton. Sinking n ship in its own ele-
ment with his shells is another matter
and when the Iowa takes her last long
dive into the deep there will be no
mourners.
II has not been determined exactly
how the old man of war is going to be
sunk. but it probably will be done
with big guns from the dreadnaughts
of the fleet.

It means national capital, in fact. The

Also there are many important Chi
