The Importance Of the pipe Of peace,
which confirmed countless treaties, is, of
COURSE, familiar Raising tobacco to keep
these pipes alight became an important
industry and determined The migration Of
tribes and the election Of land for their
homes. No matter how far back in his
tory we delye we find the Indian placidly
smoking his pipe.
The Indian pipes Of prehistoric times
may serve 10 give the clew 70 the mys-
terious origin Of these people and their
early migratons. Take, for example, the
pipes made and smoked by the Eskimos
of Alaska Many Of these pipes are amaz-
ingly elaborate in design and decoration.
They are often made Of prehistoric ivory,
as It is called; that is, from the tusks Of
extinct animals which had been preserved
in the frozen North for untold centuries.
Although the decorations Of these pipes
are often grotesque, their general form is
euriously familiar. Unlike The ordinary
bowl Of the tobacco smoking pipe, these
have a fat disk, with a very small hole at
the center. They arc a perfect reproduc-
ton, in short, OF the opium pipes Of the
orientals, although used for tobacco
New-York tribune., 1922-12-24

the hard stone and drilling the pasae
for the smoke often seemed insurmount
able. The researches Of the explorers in
many Indian lands have turned up many
pipes Of varied designs in various stages
Of manufacture, with the tools used N
the work. Il is. therefore, easy TO recon-
struct the art. which would otherWis b
lost.
Many Of the pipes are far TOO heay
and cumbersome 70 have been he'd b
the smoker and must b. rested upon he
ground. II is not unusual 10 hnt club
crate pipe bowls weighing ten pounds OF
more. These we're used for eeremonn

Here are pipes made from every hndcf

most beautiful pipes are carved fun

smoking. The question naturally arises
as 10 where the Eskimos learned 70
make such pipes, and the conclusion Is IN
evitsble that they show an Oriental inhu-
e,ce In other words, the Eskimos
must at some time have been in touch
with the continent Of Asia.
These pipes, therefore, throw an inter
citing lipht On the possible origin Of the
American Indian. According to ono theory
people from Asia at some period perhaps
very carly IN history, passed across 70
North America, and gradually made 'neir
NV n the south. One Of these pipes Is
docora.ed with boat with two saals ana
.,,,b several walrus seated about IT, In
come such boat the ancestors OF tnese
tribes may bavc crossed the Bering sea-
F.kimos have. In fact, been discovered IN
ror,bwostern Siberia who still retain the
language and customs Of the American,
tribes SO that Il is concluded that at some
remote period they have actually eni-
grated from America 70 Asia.
Not only pipes but the actual tobacco
used be the prehistoric people has been dis-
covered in the southwestern region OF TINS
country. The leaves Of tobacco, with the
nipes. CHANGED TO be covered with earth
and sand, and in the remarkably Dry
warm air of the region they have been
New-York tribune., 1922-12-24

preserved intact. II is believed that these
pipes and tobacco are fully 1000 years
old, perhaps much older. Like most OF
the prehistoric tobacco, the leaves are
fat The trick Of twisting it is a much
later custom. This ancient tobacco was
lcng ago mummifed by the dry air. A
very valuable find Of this kind was made
in the recesses Of a deep cave, where the
tobacco had lain undisturbed for many
centuries
Although tobacco was used By Indians
throughout North and South America, the
art Of pipe making and decoration -four
ished in the northern continent II seems
probable that the Indians 30 the south
used tobacco in other forms, probably the
cigar. Centuries ago pipe making became
a fine art in many regions Of North Amer
lea. The skill displayed seems 10 have
been lost, so that to-day pipe making is in
q sense one Of the lost arts. For a long
period the pipes, although often modelled
after classic originals, have shown a
gradual loss in artistic quality. With the
appearance Of white men, who brought
with them the clay pipe Of civilization,
the Indians, or many Of them, gradually
New-York tribune., 1922-12-24

A MERICA set the fashion for wom-
IN en smoking perhaps a thousand
4 n years before Columbus. The new
designs in pipes for women displayed in
the fashionable shops this season revive
a very ancient custom. It is doubtful II
the Indian flappers Of prehistoric times
used the pipe, but their mothers and
grandmothers were confirmed smokers.
A new light has been thrown on the
romantic history Of tobacco in America
BY the research Of the Museum Of the
American Indian, recently opened in New
York. For years expeditions have been
at work throughout both North and South
America delving into the past of the In
dians and the remarkable civilization
which preceded the coming of white men.
These discoveries make il possible TO write
an entirely new chapter, or rather several
chapters, in the prehistoric history OF
America.
The history Of tobacco and the part It
has played in civilization heretofore has
always begun with the discovery Of Amer
lea. III is now lOo1iDiI W II NJ ~ S"-N -
a thousand years or more before the APP
pcarance Of white men on the American
continents. Tobacco played a far more
important part in prehistoric times than
IN our own era. The pipe took the place
OF the family crest. II was elaborateiy
carved with pictures OF the battles and
ennquests Of its owner or his tribe, so that
row il Is invaluable as a written history
Of the period. In many cases the pipe Is
the highest expression Of Che art Of its
eEners, and may alone, among the relics
az the period, ten f the civilization OF
hDrgotten people.
In the classic period Of the pipe, as 1t
may be called, tobacco played a very i'm
nurtant part in civilization. Since 1t was
hsed in variety Of ceremonies, no trouble
ar expense was spared TO make it often
the most elaborate possession Of The tribe
