the Poultry Projects, which has been
in progress among the home units in
the county, will be held at Milroy on

TO THE SPEEDER

Hey, you crazy auto speeder!
Why the smoke and all the fuss?
Someone sick, is there a fire,
Or are you just an orn'ry cuss,
Who persists in being reckless
For amusement or thrill
Figuring to let insurance
Or the mourners pay the bill?
Should a car precede your flivver,
Though it's doing thirty-five,
You must feed the juice to Lizzie,
AXE the lead, dead or alive.
On blind curve or a corner
What's the diff ? Just let her slide;
He that watches fools and cripples,
Probably will save your hide.
Where the stream of traffic's thickest,
Keep her going, slither through;
Time a cop can tune his whistle,
You'll be gone a mile or two.
Should you run down little children,
Or the aged, as you go,
Never mind, Zone ev'ry minute,
Barnum said, 'is born" you know.
Though you know not where you're
going,
Nor what you will do when there,
Make it snappy, hit the gravel,
Burn it UP and split the air!
You're the extra NUT we hear Of
Just blund'ring, brainless hick,
But a booster for the sexton,
With his thrusty spade and pick.

A report compiled by Paul H. Kirk,

which was recently placed in the
hands of The Gazette, shows some in
teresting figures regarding the value
of farm crops for Redwood County for
last year, comparing same with the
previous year.

by the State Department of Agricul-
ture, also gives some livestock fig
ures, these being the estimated num-
Der in the county as Of january 1st,
as compared with year ago.
The report indicates that the num-
Der of horses, colts and mules has
been dwindling, the number for jan

less than on January 1st, 1926.

AMERICAN MEN
TOO BEAUTIFUL
SAYS PARTISAN
Declares Most OF Plastic
Surgery Patients Are
From Male Sex.

CHICAGO, March 26.-The French
government has paid America a
pretty compliment by sending a.
noted plastic surgeon here to learn
American methods Of making women
more beautiful.
But the surgeon, DR.. Leon Dufour-
menthel, says the most interesting
thing he has learned so far is that
American men are just as intent on
making themselves beautiful as
women
IT have found that 40 per cent
of the clientele of your plastic
surgeons are men," said DR. Dufour-
menthel. This would be considered
an outrage in France.
"F>renchmen are content to let
their own wrinkles remain, provided
the faces oft he ladies are unlined
and lovely. That is why L SIN here.
My government wants me to learn
American methods of feminine
beauty culture"
Women Here Slow
Women in this country, the doctor
said, have not learned to take adj
vantage of this new art as openly
as they have in France. In France
women make appointments with
plastic surgeons just as they would
with dentists. AS soon as wrinkles
appear they have them removed. The
same is true Of excess fat.
Regarding the relative beauty of
American and French women, DR..
Dufourm enthel believes there is
little difference, except that French
women may have their American
sisters outclassed within ten years of
the present trends continue.
BY present Trends" the doctor
said he meant the Outdoor girl
craze"
More Masculine
t'Your women are becoming more
masculine every year." he said.
"They go in too much for sports and
are losing their finer feminine
touches. French women are re-
naming feminine"
Returning to the subject Of Amer
lean men in Beauty Parlors." DR..
Dufourmenthel, said he believed it
was a great mistake for men to
patronize plastic surgeons.
"All Of your men want to look
alike" he said. ''They want to ap-
pear like the men in the clothing
advertisements. So they have their
noses renodeled, their mouths pulled

PORT BEAUCLA|RE
 CANNERY BURNS

On the End of June the can- nery of the Beauclaire Pack ing Go. at Port Beauclaire was destroyed by fire of an un-' known origin. When discov- cred, the roof was a mass of flames and a high gale was blowing so that it was irnpos- sible to fight the fire success fully. The cannery building and main warehouse were com. pletely destroyed and two oth-: CT warehouses badly damaged. All the cannery machinery and about 15,O0O cans were includ- ed in the loss. The Cordova bringing 25O tons of additional machinery was near enough to see the fire.
 Superintendent Kelly be- lieves the fire originated from a short circuit in the lighting system. Plans have already been begun for the rebuilding of the cannery in time for next seasons pack. The Com pany will lease it's traps and other available gear during the present season.

THE OLD RIDDLE

So much nonsense has been uttered about the origin of the Indians that few other topics of science have been so be- logged. The ancestry of the American aborigines has been traced to this, that or the oth- CT race of Africa, Asia or Eu- rope-even to the Hittites and to the Host" tribes of Israel civilizations have been credit ed to China, Egypt and even the supposed continent of At- alantis. So the views expres- sed a few days ago by A. M. Tozzer, Harvard university pro- lessor of anthropology, to the American Philosophic society are welcome.
 Professor Tozzer rejects the theories that account for In- dian beginnings and culture by immigration from the old world, and DrS. Mead ana Hrdlicka agree with him. They demonstrate that the attempts to show outside origination of the ancient civilizations of Mexico, Peru and other regions are stterly wanting in evidence. All aboriginal culture in North America and South America before Europeans arrived was an independent product of the native aborigines. In the case of the Mayas this is demon strated by writings of theirs that have been deciphered by Bowditch Morley and Spinden and that show that the Maya calendar begins with B. c. 613. The Mayas adjusted the cal endar year to the solar year,
The Alaska fisherman., 1926-06-15

correcting the former by the latter. They did so more &C., curately than the Europeans, and did it 2,OOO years earlier. This would seem to demon strate the independence of Indian culture.
 The report of the meeting of the Philosophic society says "the Indians were described as being exclusively composed of the descendants of primitive tribes that slowly dribbled from Siberia to Alaska a few thou sand years ago." It seems un- believable the scientists made the statement with which they are credited in the report. The flew thousand years ago" are too few for primitive tribes" to reach the culture the Mayas are shown to have had 2,5OO years ago. The time is insuf- hcient for the development of the enormous differences of many sorts that existed among the hundreds of racial groups which, when Columbus arrived, had spread from the Arctic to the Antarctic and from the Pacific to the Atlantic. It is doubtful, and grows more doubtful, whether the Amer ican aborigines as whole descended from primitive Asi- atics. Possibly man originat- ed independently in America as we'll as Asia-Chicago Daily Journal.
