There Is general trend that is
given the norm thru long line OF

grandfather on a mothers side may
influence one child far more than
father and mother. Some regard
highly prenatal influence, and insist
that the mother should devote the
nine months before the birth of the
child to thinking the thoughts she
desired the child to think. My obser.

Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, April 3.
Examination Of Maya ruins OF
.Chichenitza, just completed by the
American scientist, DR.. Sylvanus G..
Morley, has brought to light evil
dence Of q civilization dating back
to the middle of the fifth century.
A. D., which DR.. Morley says was
the most advanced of any in the
western hemisphere prior to the dis
covery of America by Columbus.
The research was inaugurated a
decade ago by the Carnegie Institute
but was interrupted by the war. The
project again was taken up last
month.
The religious and civic centers of
the ruins cover an area two miles
long and one mile wide. Extending
from this center in all directions for
three to five miles are the remains
of stone buildings. These, include
pyramids. platforms, terraces, plazas
and paved roads. all now buried in

Collection of Spanish Puppets
From Venice Within the
Show Make Hit

To see Rosinantc and Dapplc,
stecds famous in Grievances history
of Don Quixote, lambs. and even a
humble bee participating and even
taking leading part on the stage
at the Auditorium last night when
Don Quioxtc" was presented by
Tony Sargs marionettes was some
thing new for theatre goers in BIS
marck
TO see miniature figures moving
about the stage in peculiar sliding
movements as Il result Of the pull
ing of strings by the puppeteers
was something new and delightful
to the fair sized audience which en-
joyed the evening performances.
Perhaps the mechanical presenta-
ton of the play aroused the great
est interest in the audience. The
little actors and actresses moved
about the stage, made motions, and
appeared almost to talk, in fact
their lips did move, and as inexper-
fenced stage goer might easily have
thought that the puppets were
speaking, the horses neighing, the
lambs, bleating, and the bee busslng
OF course the oadity OF the move
ments of the actors at times was
such as to arouse chuckles and
smiles from the audience. 1t is not
always that you can see "A knight IN

windmill, refusing to pay his tolls
