the report OF the discovery by the

from earliest scanty information,
the findings might turn out to be
those Of stone-age Eskimo remains.

scientific opinion that since the In

Eskimo only at its gateway, the
Indian was prior arrival here.
But the Eskimo civilization Is a
very old one. going back peGhaps
to the European Age, as has been
suggested by Russian investigators
who report finding primitive
kitchen niddens that were 80 feet
deep. In these middens implements
were found Of stone and bone. thus
pointing to an actual stone age,

stone age in Europe

practiced in Egypt, was employed

irresponsible operators, a menace to
themselves and to other users of
the highways.
1T is neither our wish nor our
intention to attempt to regulate the
private lives of our policy-holders,
but it is certainly our right and our
duty to so regulate our business
that the great majority of our men,
bers will not be penalized for the
sins of the drinking minority.
TO this end we have adopted the
policy of canceling the insurance of
members who become involved in
accidents through drink. In taking
this position we are not allowing
technicalities to stand in the way
of our duty to the other policyhold-

had drink before the accident, or
had been in the habit of mixing

MILFORD GRANGE

There was very large attendance
at the field meeting last Saturday,
and everyone enjoyed the gracious
hospitality of Mr.. and Mrs. Wether-
ly, and the pleasant social hour. The
program consisted of excellent read
ings by Mrs. Messick and Mrs. Abb
bolt and several games that created
much fun and laughter. A get-to-
gether picnic was discussed, and it
was decided that grangers and their
families bring a friend or two along
as well. Meet at Slaughter Beach on
Friday, August "a, for a jolly pic
mic. Bring your lunch and your bath
ing suit.
At a meeting of the executive
committee of the bazaar on Satur-
day evening, it was decided to omit
the poultry exhibit this year. This
department has always been fea-
ture of the fair but for several rea-
sons it was considered wise not to
have it. Those who were to have
had charge of the poultry will be
placed on other committees.
How is your particular work for
the fair progressing? Every week
brings the date nearer.
There will be another rag sewing
at the hall next Tuesday. Mrs. Holz-
requests ladies to come ear
ly, bring lunch, also bring rags for
sewing. She hopes to finish the rags
for rugs at this time.
