World SIOuD to Hail
Genius OF Hawthorne

some OF us know that great as Ma
tnaniel Hawthorne was it was not I'M
ta 1887 that through the persuasion Of
his friends he allowed himself to pub
Hsh some Of his stories In book form
under the title, Twice Told Tales. !"
says DR.. Frank H. Vizetelly. The
tales were received coldly and proved
that their author could not live upon
his literary earnings. At Bowdoin he
wrote ~Seven Tales of MY Native
Land" a manuscript which. after
many journeys to publishers, was con-
signed to the flames. After that he
wrote his first novel, ''Fanshawe," pub
lished In 1928. but it received chilly re-
eeption. In 1925 he Joined his mother
and sister at Salem, where the ladies
lived In seclusion.
Here Hawthorne Led the life Of a
rscluse, seeing little Of the members
Of bis family, having most Of his meals
served alone and rarely taking exer-
else save after dark. He wrote once
60 a friend: we do not live at our
house" then announced his intention
az taking up literature as a profession.
A second series Of Twice Told Tales"
and Moses From an Old Manse" OBJ
tanned small profit for their author,
VINO In 1851 complained that for many
years he was "the obscurest man Of
letters In America"
This was the author of that immor-
tai work. "The Scarlet Letter" which
he published In 1850. and followed
with 'sThe House of the Seven Ga
blas," and "The Blythedale Romance"
three books that are universally ac-
knowledged ranking among the liter
airy masterpieces Of the world.

Gilmore, curator of vertebrate pal

foot prints. The filding of three sue
cessive rock formations along Hermit
trail, leading down to the depths of
the canyon, is especially interesting
to scientists. During a period of sew
eral weeks work new species of foot
prints were discovered every day in
the Supai formation, hermit shale,
and Coconino sandstone along the
Hermit trail.
These footprints were made by
many strange species of fauna now
extinct, that roamed the canyon re-

er cut through this rock, digging out
the Grand Canyon, and in the course
of the ages the footprints were again
exposed.
Among the new tracks recently dis
covered is one made by an animal
with eight legs and sixteen toes. A
slab of the rock bearing the foot

on display at the park office. A fine
