TREE RINGS MAY PROVE
AGE OF ANCIENT RUINS

/ A prediction that within the next
/ year or two, the archaeological world
will be startled by the discoveries of
DR.. f. A. Douglas, director of the
! Steward observatory and professor of
astronomy at the Arizona university,
with tree rings as means of deter
mining the exact age of ancient ruins,
was the statement made by DR.. Neil
NJ. Judd, who heads the department of
archaeology of the National museum
at Washington.
DR.. Judd, who for four years past
has headed an expedition exploring
the Pueblo Bonito ruins at Chaco can
yon, in New Mexico, was in Tucson for
the purpose of comforting with DIR.
Douglass as a means of establishing
the true age of the celebrated ruins.
The expedition is being sponsored
by the National Geographic Society.
The noted archaelogist, whose mother
and sisters reside in Tucson, paid
high tribute to the genius of DR..
Douglass, whose scientific discoveries
in the language of tree rings he said
has focused the attention of the ar
Genealogical world upon the Arizona
university.
He expressed confidence that DR..
Douglass would accomplish, by means
of his research in tree rings, that
which archaelogists have been CROP
ing for years without success, a true
means of telling the age of prehis-
toric ruins with exactness.
Heretofore the men of this branch
of science have been compelled to
draw their conclusions from pottery
and other specimens of ancient han
diwork unearthed at the scene of the
ruins.
Such facts as thus gained are gen.
orally inconclusive and unsatisfactory,
Dr. Judd said.
With the aid of DR.. Douglass, the
visiting archaeologist expressed firm
belief that he would be~able to ascer-
tain the true age of the Pueblo Bo-
nito ruins on which his attention has
been directed for years.
"In my opinion" declared DR.. Judd, /
"the Pueblo Bonito, which is near
Gallup, N. NJ, is the finest prehis-
toric ruin in the southwest. / say this |
after seeing hundreds of them. We
have just concluded the fourth sum
mer on this exploration work which /
will be completed in another year. ~
My opinion of the Importance of |
the Pueblo Bonito is based on the fact
that it covers about three and one
fourth acres of ground. The ancient /
building contained more than 400 /
rooms on the ground floor, and frag-
ments of the four story walls are still
standing at 35 to 40 feet from the
ground.
Il have never seen masonary in the
southwest that compares with this !.
ruin, which judging from the pottery !
and other evidence found, we know /
to be at least 1000 years old. There
is evidence that the ruin once housed h
a population of 1900.

CHAPTER XII
Buckingllam's Iieroics

Miss Sylvia Farquharson occupied
very pleasant lodgings in Salisbury
court. procured for her BY Betterton.
who himself lived in a house oppo-
site. And Il was In the doorway OF
Bcttcrton's house that she first be-
held the wolfish face OF Bates.
This happened on that same morn.

was that. looking from the uDgiazed
window on her left across toward the
house Of her friend Betterton. she be.

from the shadows OF the doorway as
IL TO spy upon her.
II took her a full half.hour to reach
her MERGERS at the sign OF the Silver
Angel in Cheapslde, for the chairman
moved slowly.
When at last her chair was set
down at the door Of the Silver Angel
she stepped out and passed In upon

II may be well that Master Bates

chair with three tough DULLES follow.

something Of judge OF feminine ma.

that II would perhaps be best part OF

preachers message, and those wicked
wits Of his had perceived here a stage
