Three Horns had only to hold his head

into the horns, it was "all over but the

Three Horns could not enjoy the full
fruit of a victory in battle. The teeth,
which he has left for us to look at,
show that he did not eat flesh. He
could grind grass and twigs with his
teeth, but could not tear meat from
dead rivals. If you had been living in
that olden time | think that you
would have been in little danger from
this animal-unlesS you attacked him.
He could not run fast. and it did him
no good to rush upon and kill crea-
lures who meant him no harm.
Old Three Horns had five toes on
each front foot, and three toes on each
of those behind. His tail was thick
and dragged behind him as he tramp
ed along. His hide is believed to have
been thick and tough.

Three Horns
BYRANION COLEMAN.

Let usfnake the acquaintance today
of one of the monsters which roamed
the earth millions of years ago. In the
language of science it is called 'Tri-
ceratops." The name means Three
Horns and we shall speak of it by
that simple name.
Three Horns is pictured. In the, by
gone time in which it lived there We're
no cameras. There were not even any
people alive to draw a picture. So
the best we can do is to figure out how
the animal probably looked. To do
this We are aided by bones which have
been found in the West, especially in
the States of Wyoming and Colorado.
Not only have the ribs and leg bones
been found, but many a skull has been
turned up. The head of Three Horns
was mainly bone. There were jaw
bones, teeth. horns and a great bony
shield. Not much room was left in
the head for anything besides bone,
and the brain was small. This beast
did not have more sense than was alb
solutely needed.
To make up for his lack of sense

rough fur coats so dear to the heart of
the girl student. The raccoon coat is
still the most important wrap in the

school or college. The furriers have
really risen to the ocCa sion and in

of color as they are reflected in the
rain-covered paths.
1t really seems pity that there
comes at the moment a tendency to
choose shiny black raincoatS. Some
of these show "A piping of red or
some other bright color, and of

his blue eyes. He reached over to his

After the sport fur coat and the
slicker there is no garment quite so
dear to the school or college girl as

she has more than one. No doubt the
reason she likes her shawl so much
is because she feels that il gives her
