NEW WORLD CIVILIZATION IS
RIVAL TO THAT OF GREECE

A BOUT two thousand years ago,
IA while the peoples Of north
western Europe were living in
state Of utmost barbarism, there
was slowly Towering in the New
World the most brilliant civiliza-
ton Of ancient America-namely,
the Maya of southern Mexico and
northern Guatemala. From a
cultural point of view the Maya
were the Greeks Of the New
World.
In many spheres OF human ac-
tivity these Maya excelled. almost
beyond believing. in architecture.
sculpture, and painting; in cera-
mics, stone, and feather mosaics,
and the lapidary art; in astron-
omy, history, and chronology. In
this last mentioned field their at
tainments were so remarkable
that 1t may be claimed that no

There's another libel that women

the supposition that the feminine
sex is the gossip mongering one.

"HEY'VE made new marriage law in
Russia. It's a remarkable law with
u several radical ideas that might raise
riots in America. For instance, the lady can
keep her maiden name if she so desires. But
here's the biggest innovation. This law
grants woman equal rights, but it also places
EQUAL RESPONSIBILITIES upon her. If
Mr.. Alexis Knockemcoldski falls i'll or re-

Anna Clingingvineski, the same being his
lady wife, and tell her to get out and hustle
to cover the deficit. Not that he hasn't
hitherto done this, in Russia and other lands.
He has, But now he has RIGHT to do it.
The law says that in case of disability, either
party in the marriage may apply to the other
for aid, and the law will help him get it.

LINK INDIAN TONGUES
WITH OLD CHINESE

CHICAGO, Oct. S.-P)-Ncw
clues to the Red Indian are believed
to have been discovered by DIR. Ed
ward Sapir, Canadian anthropolosist,
now of the University of Chicago.
DIR. Sapir's research in linguistics
has convinced him of the basic identity
of the language spoken by certain ma
tive North American tribes with that
of the primitive Chinese. a statement
from the university said last night.
Comparing the primitive Chinese,
Siamcse and Tibetan. allied tongues,
with the language of the Nadene group
of Indians. DIR. Sapir has found the
same peculiarities Of phonctics, vo'
cabulary and grammatical structure on
both sides of the Pacific. The Nadenc
tribes are scattered from the southern
border of Alaska to New Mexico
among Indian tribes whose language
and customs are entirely different.
The Hupa of California, according
to DR.. Sapir, speaks the language sub.
stantinlly, of the Tlingit. ncighbor Of
the Eskimo. and the Navajo talks a
language like that Of the Sarcee in
Alberta.
