The National Museum soon may
have one OF the four or five mann
moth skeletons in the world.
An excellent nucleus for such a
mounted skeleton has just been ex'
cavated in Florida by James w. Gid
ley. assistant curator of paleontology.
II another specimen can be found. the
museum probably will be in position
to patch the two together and build up
an exhibit.

territory now covered by the United
States. Scattered bits of them have
been found in almost every State in
the Union. But these have been, for
the most part. single teeth. Any
considerable parts of mammoth
skeleton seldom are discovered. The
mastodon. an elephant type cotem-
porary with the mammoth, left many
skeletons throughout the world. and
the National Museum has three of
them, reasonably complete.
At Venice, Fla, Mr.. Gidley found
a complete lower jaw with nearly all
the teeth in place, considerable por-
tions of the tusks. enough bones to
restore all the feet and few verte-
brae. Up to the time of freshet

complete skull in the same deposit.

AS you ascend the spacious steps of
the Public Library Of Washington,
ID. c.. you are met at the door by an
artistic sign bearing picture of some
famous parsonage and the leading
question. Have you visited the biog-
raphy room?" The appeal is at once
simple and powerful. The face rep
resents fascintting life. whose story
you would know, and the question
reads like a personal invitation. So
unless you have come on some special
quest which excludes biography you
find yourself looking about inquir-
lngly, and just over to the left a
nroad entrance welcomes you into the
intimate records Of human lives.
Before YOU cross the threshold you
are pleasantly aware that the whole
atmosphere is quite different from the
formldably busineSslike air Of the con-
veptional public reading room. Here
is rather, on magnificent scale, the
library of some aff1uent man of taste,

hang modern paintings and on low

pleasure the Capacious round table

suffused with soft lights from orna-
mental lamps. And your comfort is
complete when YOU drop into an up
holStered armchair with some newly
discovered treasure of biography in
your hand.
