elder sister. Philologists concluded
that the home of the Hindus must al
so have been the home of the Indo-
Europeans. and this common home
they visualized on the banks of In.
dia's most sacred stream, the Ganges.
The study of the Veda soon showed,
however, that the Vedic people did not
know the Gauges, but lived In north
west India SO the primitive home of
the Indo-Europeans was moved once
more, this time into the Iranian re-
gion east Of the Caspian sea-"
Professor Bender goes on to show
how philologians and theologians met
on common ground for different rea-
sons and decided that the location was
southwestern Asia. He presents the
arguments in support of this hypo-
thesis and shows how most of them
have been disproved and presents the
method whereby modern philologists
have arrived at this new conclusion.
Honey Bee 10 Factor.
On account of the fact that almost
every Indo- European language shares
with its cognates a common word for
honey, or for an intoxicating drink
made from honey, 1t is made clear that
the primitive home of the Indo-Eur-
opeans must have been a land where
the honey bee abounded. But not one
of the Asiatic sites that have been
seriously considered by modern philol-
ogists as the possible home of these
peoples, falls within the bee belt. In
Europe, on the other hand, the bee
Is indigenous almost everywhere.
BY continuing this process Of com.
parative philoiOgy and by the processes
of elimination the conclusion above
mentioned Is reached. 1--WE have left,
finally" says Professor Bender, 1.-THE
great plain of central and southeast
ern Europe, which embraces roughly
the present Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine
ana Russia south and west of the Vol
ga. Almost every condition is salts

Europeans as inhabiting some part of
this plain as late as 5000 or $500 b.
Z. Geographically this central Euro.
pean plain lies In the very heart of
lndo-European territory as we now
know it,"
In support Of his theory Professor
Bender states in the closing paragraph
OF his lecture: Nor can we ignore
the notable fact that right here we find
the Lithuanian, which has preserved
into modern living speech more of the
lndo-European past than any other
language on earth. Not a scintilla of
evidence, historic or linguistic. has
been produced to indicate that the
Lithuanians have ever stirred from
their present dwelling place since they
separated from the other Indo- Euro
pean speaking peoples.
Indeed, IL has been made very prob.

PrincetOn.-Where would your home
be If you had lived 5000 years ago?
The search by ethnologists and other
scientists to find just where the first
white peoples lived, before splitting
up into what are modern nations. Is
described by Prof. Harold II. Bender
OF Princeton university, who declares
that our ancestors of the cave man
period lived in what Is modern Lithu-
ania.
AS student of languages and pro-
lessor of Indo-Germanic philology at
Princeton Professor Bender's investi-
cations have led him back to the or
igin of all white races, before the dawn
OF history. His conclusions, together
with description of the methods by
which he came to them. are embodied
In THE Aryan Question. Did the Lam
guages of Europe Come From Asia p
lecture published by Princeton.
The Indo-European race. which -four
ished almost 5000 years ago, is the
founder of all the present peoples of
Europe, save the Hungarians, Greeks,
Romans, Anglo-Saxo ind other Ger
mans, Celts. all these people are de-
scendants Of the one-time race, which
Professor Bender believes lived In that
section of Europe between the Baltic
and Black seas, or modern Poland and
Lithuania.
Comparison Of Languages.
