A portion of the skull of "bloke, y

years ago. arrived here yesterday
aboard the Dollar Liner President

watchful eyes of Leslie E. Spock. geol-

dition.
The "bloke~ has not been named by
science, but it is the largest land
mammal ever found its diScoverers
said 1t stood approximately IS feet,
scientists estimated. The specimen is
one of the price finds which Andrews
and his party are bringing to the
American Museum of Natural History,
New York.
Spock and Shackleford were the
second group of scientists to return
here recently from the expedition.
Hope of finding the long-sought
missing link'-common ancestors of

tofthe arid regions of Central Asia was
voiced by Spock
The expeditions into the desert have
convinced the scientists that the ter
ritory is the oldest continuously dry
land on earth Spock said. This fact
supports the theory that it was the
cradle of the human race, and we hope
sometime to find there the missing
link.

discovered, but race we call the Dune
Dwellers, of which we found new and
abundant relics this time, showed

Europe until some 10000 years later.

differs from that of Napoleon III. Go
about in modern Paris and 1t is with
difficulty that one can trace the land
marks Of the past. Yet, somehow in
spite of her vicissitudes and of having
no fundamental plan from the Begin
ming as Washington had, Paris possesses
that sense of unity and completeness
so rare in any great and growing city.
All its principal buildings seem to fit
into the landscape and to be part of a
general plan so magnificent in con-
ception and execution that it makes
one wonder whether an effect equally
satisfactory and on scale and design
suited to our needs, can ever be pro-
duced in Washington"
And yet. Washington has many ad-
vantages in SO far as its future de-
velopment is concerned. It's life CEN
ters around the Government, as those
who planned the city intended it should
do. There is no manufacturing, and
the engineering and industrial prob
lens, which have to be met at such
expense and effort in great industrial
certers like Pittsburgh and Chicago, are
entirely absent. Washington is still a
city of moderate size, Notwithstanding
the fact that its population has grown
from $4,000 at the time of the Civil
war TO ABOUT nall a million today
But so long as it remains chiefly a seat
of Government. it will retain its unique
character among the cities of the coun-
try.
Mecca of Visitors.
More and more it will b. visited by
people who will go to Wsah ngton be-
cause of its beauty and their feeling o,
pride and personal ownership in the
Nations Capital. With the rapid
growth in the use of automobiles and
of aeroplanes. larger and larger num-
bers will visit Washington each year.
AS it becomes more beautiful and its
fame grows, people will visit it from
all parts of the world and Washington
will find, as Paris has done, that archi-
tectural and landscape beauty can be
a source of profit as well as pride and
satisfaction, to city.
But there are weightier r~esons
than that why we should give our sup
port to the effort to rebuild our Ma
tional Capital. Until recently America
has been in the frontier stage as nations
go. We were too busy about the hard

realities of existence to have much time
for the amenities. But now we have
the opportunity and we have also the
resources to raise the standard of taste
IN this country, and the extent to which
this is being done has no parallel at
present in any country in the world.
Nowhere are the arts of architecture
and landscape engineering being prac-
ticed more extensively and successfully
than in America.
Evolve Skyscraper.
1T has been said that in evolving the
skyscraper we have made the only
original contribution to architecture
since the Gothic Certainly, in adapt
ing architecture to the needs of mod
ern conditions and crowded spaces, we
have produced something that is ex-
pressive of human aspiration and
human need. Judged by that standard.
the Woolworth Building is a work of
art both because it is beautiful in itself
and because it expresses the needs and
aspirations Of great people. II we can
give to our Office buildings something of
the beauty of Gothic cathedralS or
model our banks and railroad stations
after Greek temples, we shall, in time,
provide a magnificent setting for the
requirements of modern civilization.
But we must remember that just as
these things are architectural express
sions of the Nation on its commercial
side. so should the city of Washington,
as President Coolidge has said. express
the soul of America. We do we'll. there
fore. to give to it that beauty and dig
nifty to which it is entitled In doing
so we are not only carrying out those
plans which Washington made so long
ago for the city which he founded, but
at the same time we are justifying that
faith which he had from the beginning
in the future greatness of America

TREES AND MEN
Hs1.,,1,~1, Io~11N

There is old tree in a down town alley which
in spite Of sooty air and in spite Of being partly buried
under fill of cinders, is today in full and joyous leaf
1t is the pride Of its environment, living example OF
success through difficulties.
Farther out, in potter suburbs, carefully
plant jealousy protected sapngs They surround their
roots with the finest soil. They plant them just the
right depth They prune them and shape them to a
standard. They do everything possible to make of
them trees that will lead upright and useful lives Then
winter second spring finds half of them
dead. Many, of the survivors are warped and mis-
shapen Only few give promise of that perfection
which might be expected from the pains expended.
The grand old tree in the alley is, of course
exception Not all gutter trees rise to such heights
but think of the triumph when does. The care.
fully nutured trees our fine lawns deserve little
praise when they grow straight and sturdy and beau
tiful before the Creator The gutter tree does And
do the gutter who rise beyond the standards Of
their environment. As for the who, like some
trees profit nothing from their superior nurture they
and the helpless downtrodden Of the alleys are
the failures of the world
