BIG ANIMALS OF TODAY SMALL
 IN SIZE AS COMPARED WITH
 BROTHERS OF 25O,O ,OOO YEARS

The seven-toothed tiger, several specimens of which were found in La Brea, was the most ferocious animal in the world about a half a million years ago, Dr. Hadley said.
 While these facts have been ascer- tained by paleontologists there is yet much to be discovered about the pre- historic life and peregrinations of the American fox, antelope, deer and bear. It is doubtful whether the La- Brea pits will contribute any more, or reveal anything beyond the pleis- tocene age, Dr. Hadley said, although they have revealed more and preserv- ed for the world a larger variety of preglacia1 period relics of mammalia than any other spot in the world yet uncovered.
 There has been much discussion of the human skull found in the La Brea pits, Dr. Hadley said, but noted authorities have contended that 1t is only ten thousand years of age. and saber-toothed tiger. but a tree has been found in the pits, a cypress. which is believed to have grown more than a quarter of a million years ago.
 Dr. Had1ey said that none of these animals had been traced beyond the eocene age of the tertiary era, but geologists have gone back through carbonic. devonian, silurian eras to the ancient canbrian era which some say is a billion and a half years ago, and have provided a geological fund for paleontogolica1 research that does not promise to be- come exhausted.

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 1-The pre- historic past of the fox, deer and an telope offer a field for fertile re-
 search as a result of finds in the fla nous La Brea pits, a tomb of half million years, Dr. E. D. Hadley. local paleontologist, told members of the Southern California Academy of Science. He reviewed. the past million or more years in which the movements of the elephant or masta- don, the three toed horse or mio- hippus, the camel or camelops, the sa- beroothed tiger or smilodon, and the sloth family were traced beyond the pleistocene age into the phocene, miocene, oligocene and eocene periods of the tertiary era.
 While the horse, camel and ele- phant of today remain they are very small compared to their ancestors who were apparently wiped out by the last glacial period when the great ice fields of the north swept down over a California that was not so sunny, and these prehistoric giant mammals with the giant ground sloth became extinct in this freezing spell of 250,- 900 years ago, said Dr. Hadley.
 But, back in the eocene period a million or more years before. just af- ter conclusion of the mesozoic age. there were no giant animals, and the great ground sloth of the pleistocene age was just a little armadillo such as now exists in South America, he said. The Imperial Elephant more than twice the size of any existing today, also came from a little animal that probably was no larger than our horse or pony of today,

FEW SWEDISH
 WOMEN USE THEIR SUFFRAGE RIGHTS

Stockholm, Feb. 1.-Less than half of the women of Sweden entitled to vote exercised their newly-won fran chise rights at the polls in the cleo tions of 1921, the first year of full suffrage for women, according to a re- port of the Swedish Central Bureau of Statistics just made public. How ever, the official report of the 1921 elections give the suffragist leaders at least two causes for rejoicing
 The men did not show a much bet ter record than the women, and the number of women voters exceeded the male voters in the capital of Stock holm by more than 5000 voters.
 The official report shows that All per cent of the Swedish women voters cast their ballot while 61.9 per cent. Of the men voted. The total women's vote in the city of Stockholm was 78,566, while vote cast by men was 71,198.
 The general impression throughout the country seems to be that the Swed- ish women have not fully realized the importance and significance of their new privilege. It is believed that In the future they will make a better showing at the polls.
 The heavy women's vote in Stock holm, which is to a large extent an city, may indicate that the women, especially women trade uinon members, grasped the op- portunity to register their votes. How ever, other women cannot be said to have neglected the ballot as a. whole.

RAILROAD HAS
 A SYSTEM FOR REDUCING DEATHS

Chicago, Feb. 1-Systematfc accf- dent prevention pays, in dollars saved and suffering avoided, say officials of the Chicago Great western Railroad in making public figures to show re- ductions in deaths and injuries on that road for 1921.
 Accidental deaths were cut from B in 1920 to 20 in 1921. according to statement issued by the com pany and the number of injuries re- duced from 610 to 294 in this period.
 Ten of the deaths in the last year resulted from automobiie-crossing accidents, five of those killed were trespassers on the right of way and five were employees. while no pas sengers were killed. the statement adds.
 The western division won the ban ner offered by the company for fewest train and train service casualties per 100, 900 engine hours.
 The company boosted safety work among the employees by means of daily wire bulletins in each division announcing the number Of days since there had been a reportable accident on the division. This bulletin was copied and posted at all telegraph stations It was put out to train creWs whenever these cleared . train from a station and WAS mailed to

It has been commend ed by some of the most eminent stu dents of international relationships. It is the plan which must be ultimately adopted. The fatal blunders at Paris and the failures at Washington may be attributed to the tragic fact that, at these conference. no effort has ap- parently been made to formulate plans in harmony with the American ideals of universal justice and Hber- ty and the general welfare, all of which would be promoted by such a conference as propose.

SWEDISH PREMIER GIVES DINNER TO
 300 UNEMPLOYED

D Stockholm, Feb. 1.-Hjalmar Bran ting, the Socialist Premier of Sweden, recently gave at his own cost dinner to 500 unemployed men and women of 2 -OCkholm. The Premier and Mrs. Rranting acted as host and hostess, while tha guests were waited upon by society women of the capital, among them, Mrs. George Granting, the wife of the Premier's son.
 Later in the evening, the guests were given hot baths and provid ed with lodgings in the municipal lodg- ing houses of Stock l1ho1n.
 This is believed to be the first time that the premier of a European state has personally entertained his desti- tute constituents. When his guests had eaten their fill, Premier Granting addressed them on the economic con- ditions of Sweden.
 The Premier began by informing them that neither this dinner nor any other private or public aid extended to men and women without work was in any sense charity, butosimply what was rightfully due them from those who were fortunate enough to be able to help. He said it was not their fault that they were without means of livelihood, but the fault of warped conditions throughout Europe.
 MT. Granting warned his guests that the efforts of the state to better social and economic conditions could not be expected to lead to immediate results.
 Abiding to the chaos in Russia, he declared thar the SioW-mOV1ng efforts of the old established government syS- tenn to improve social conditions was infinitely preferable to the breaking up of the old system. The world had seen where such a course led. But social solidarity, he continued. de- from every person that he help as far as he possibly could in re- ileving te distress of the more unfor- tunate.
 T hope" the Premier continued, "that others will follow this example and that you will see thereby an ut terance of social solidarity which breaks through all barriers"
 The Premier's speech which was delivered with great earnestness, was received by a spontaneous and enthu- SiaStic applause

Sofia, Feb. 1-Christo Manoloff. Bulgarian Minister of Railways, is anxious to have American comotive
 manufacturers and railroad supply houses look into the possibilities of business in Bulgaria.
 He says that one of the greates present needs in Bulgaria is a plant for the construction and repair of locomotives and freight cars. He has on hand nearly 100 locomotives and several thousand freight cars awaitina repairs and the country had no facilities for this purpose.
 Although our country is going through period of great financial and economic stress said M. Mano- lof, i've are preparing actively for the extension and reconstruction of our railways. We would like to have the help of your resourcefuI and. eX- perienced American railway men and contractors in this direction
 We are planning the construction of more than 500 miles of new rail- roads in which we will need foreign technical skill and capital. Americans will have the preference because I think they lead the world in these two reQuirem ents."

WILL SEEK AID FROM GOVERNMENT

Honolulu, T. H., Feb. 1-Financial aid of the federal government will be sought in the movement to reha abili- tate the vanishing Hawaiian race, ac- cording to a decision reached by the Hawaiian Homes Commission ap- pointed to carry out the project in accordance with the act of Congress.
 George P. Cooke, executive secre- tary of the commission conferred with Colonel c. H. Birdseye, chief typographical engineer of the De- latter was here inspecting topo- graphical work, over the prospect of federal aid in developing irrigation for the settlement farms on Molokai the 1eper island, where the initial steps toward rehabilitation will be taken.
 The cost of the irrigation system is estimated at not less than $3,000,- op0 by Jorgen Jorgensen. commission engineer It will necessitate 100000 feet of trunneling through the volcanic structure of Molokai and presents an additional problem to the comnis- sion. for Jorgensen stated that the work could be done only by Japan ese, and the employment of alien labor by the commission is forbidden by the homes act. He recommended that the commission should take measures to obtain permission to en- ploy Japanese labor. but the commits sion has taken no action, as yet.
 Members of the faculty of the Uni versity of Hawaii are engaged Tn food conditions in the territory for the benefit of the commission and its wards. The survey results will be used as a guide to indicate that crops should be raised by the settlers.
 Professor Elwood Mead head of the college of agriculture of the Uni versity of California. has consented to come to Hawaii in May to advise the commission, Cooke announced. Dr. Mead has acted as the head of the California state farm develop ment board and Cooke said that he would be able to render valuable as- ton project.

GIRL SEEKS TO SOLVE MYSTERY
 OF RACE ORIGIN

Honolulu, T. H., Dec. 20-(By MaiI) "A comparative study of PoIynesian art designs is in progress here by Miss Ruth H. Greiner. ethnologist and Bishop Museum fellow of Yale univer- sity, in connection with the compre- hensive endeavors to clear the mystery surrounding the origin of the Polyne- sian race.
 Miss Greiner has completed her study of MarQueSan island designs and is working now on those of the Ha.- waiian islands which will be followed by those of the Samoans, Tongans and Maoris.
 Disharmony in MarQuesan culture is shown by their apparent very low stanrdas in certain forms of art and the very high developments in other kinds, she said in comment upon her discoveries Low standards are found in their textile arts and decorations, but highly developed art was discov- cred in the designs of ornamental lashings, wood carvings and tattoo ingS.

 Factors which went to promote safety work, according to the state ment, are:
 l. Whole-hearted support of safety work by the management
 2. Conversion of superintendents to the idea that accidents show 1neH1- ciency and that their prevention is just as much a part of the days work as the prevention of train de- lays-that safety work is the first principle of efficiency. not a side is- sue.
 3. Conversion of employees to the belief that accident prevention work really decreases accidents-that the employe is the chief gainer through such work and that carelessness is criminal folly from which only physt- cal suffering and financial loss are to be expected.
 4. Prom motion of a spirit of conpe- tition among employees by the giving Of prizes among divisions
 5. Improved methods of maintain ing interest in accident prevention.
