Hopi Indian Buildings
Traced Back to 1920

Flagstaff, Ariz.-Scientists have de-
termined that the Hopf Indian build
ings of many Of the villages Of the
tribe northeast Of Flagstaff date back
to about 1920 when the Hopis revolted
against the Spanish priests and tore
down missions built by the Spaniards,
using many timbers from the mis-
sions in constructing their own houses.
A party including DR.. A. e. Douglas
OF the University of Arizona and DR..
]. A. Jeancon of the Colorado state
museum returned recently from the
Hopi pueblo villages, where they made
study of the wooden beams in the
ancient structures.
The scientists principal difficulty in
their studies lay in securing the per.
mission of the Indians to make bor-
ings in the beams. which are held
sacred by the Hopis. .
When this permission was finally
obtained. number Of one-inch bor-'
ings We're made and the examination
indicated that the beams had been
cut about the year 1920, when tradf-
ton says the Spanish built their mis-.
sions In northeastern Arizona. Some
sixty years later came the Hopi revolt
and the missions we're torn down.

Waterloo Displaced as
Belgian Tourist Mecca

Brussels.-Waterloo, until 1914, was
the most frequented spot in Belgium.
Victor Hugo's "dreary plain" dotted
with monuments cQmmemorating the
armies taking part in the battle,
topped by its colossal lion on the his
toric hill Of Mont St.-Jean, attracted
countless foreign visitors, and Sundays
citizens of Brussels journeyed there
in caravans.
Guides fought at the Waterloo sta
ton for the remunerative privilege OF
escorting over the battlefield the nu-
merous visitors which every train dis
gorged into the town. -
Cafes, restaurants, hotels were do
ing a huge business. Today gaunt
and sad guides await visitors in vain.

Sportsmen report that game is 60
ing to be plentiful in lower Delaware
this year and are looking forward to
the greatest season for many years.
Dry weather in the spring and early
summer during the Matching season
for cartridges is said to be the cause.
Birds are found in large coveys in
all sections of the county where here
tofore they have not frequented.
Rabbits are said to be more plenti-
full than for four or five years, and the
weather conditions in the spring and
summer helped to save them as it did
the birds.
One of the drawbacks to good hunt
ing seasons in lower Delaware is the
fact that in the rural sections dogs
are permitted to run at large and
roam the wood at night and kill the
young game. It is figured that nearly
half of the game each year is killed
by worthless dogs.

Freezes Flour Moths
as Gas Substitute

Washington.--A miller at Willlston.
N. D.. has discovered that he can
freeze the Mediterranean moth, the
larvae of which get in -four. more eco
nomically than to gas it. The usual
waysis to give the insect gas, but the
Department of Agriculture likes the
natural remedy.
Last winter the miller asked the
weather bureau to notify his company
whenever temperature Of 20 degrees
or lower for at least several hours
could be expected. FF
AS soon as weather sufficiently cold
was forecast the company put out all
fires and opened doors and windows
and all the moths and most of the eggs
were frozen.
