ALEXANDRIA,, Va, March 10
A special grand jury. which had
been instructed by Judge Howard
w Smith, of the Corporation Court,
to investigate reports of drinking
among children at public dance
halls, yesterday afternoon made it's
recommendation as follows:
at having been brought to the
attention of the grand jury that
there has been great deal of drink
ing and disorder at the public
dances given in this community, we
recommend that you request the
City Council to pass an ordinance
making it necessary for any or
ganization, society, club, or indi-
vidual to secure a permit from the
City Council, through their dele
gated authority, for any entertain
ment in this city to be held outside

in a number Of States the court

of their votes in favor of Amer

Throughout the northern grass-lands,

many rectangular graves marked by huge,

eve are very much pleased with the
beginning of our archaeological work in
Mongolia. The discovery of new cul-
ture apparently related to one in Europe
is in itself of enormous Importance. The
scattered traces of much earlier Old
Stone Age race and younger New Stone
Age culture also promise a rich field for
future study. We know now that very
primitive human beings did live in Mon
goia, and we know how and where to
search for them.
at is evident that the whole story of
the Old Stone Age can be read in Asia
as well as in Europe. Probably, too,
much light upon the origin and relations
and migrations of primitive man will be
revealed Though we have not yet found
the missing link, we have several more
years in which to look for it. The chances
are one hundred to one against success,
since hunting for human remains is about
the most uncertain job know of; but our
lucky star is still in the ascendent. We
are applying sound principles of scientific
investigation to the problem and meantime
are reaping a valuable harvest in other
fields.
