CHRISTMAS
Bismarck, N. D.

Editor Tribune:
And now comes Christmas time
again with It's many associations-re.
ligious, social. commercial and frivol-
Gus. Our American celebration Of
Christmas seems to be q mixture of
all these. and customs from many
lands have been 50 mingled with U
activities at this time Of year as to
make 1t difficult for many to deter
mine just what its all about.
Early Puritans In America had
little time for Christmas festivities
their children had no Christmas
tree-no Santa Claus. nor did they
hang up their stockings by the fire.
place. All this was a protest against,
not the birthday of the King but
the manner In which it had been Gel
ebrated.
During Cromwell's rule In England
Christmas festivities were Outlawed.
The Puritan conscience preferred to
ignore the day rather than to permit
It's association with frivolity or posi-
tive abuse. However. with the restor-
alton Of Charles II yule-tide celebra-
tions were revived with great cnthus-
insrn.
When the Puritans came to Amer
lea they planned to keep away from
all such WorldlinesS and forthwith set
apart q day In advance OF the Christ
mas season and called II Thanksgiv-
ing Day.
Today. however. the american peo-
pie observe both holidays with equal
xest and find III the celebration Of
each q peculiar significance of It's
o:n. The one furnishes occasion for
the expression Of e~xuberancc and
gratitude. the other q commemoration
Of the most important event in the
history Of mankind.
To many honest-minded people the
question of how best to observe the
holiday lying just ahead Is often q
perplexing one Certain It Is that.

ehe1CLOilS WClS dloO AOullQ III the pool.
 The gruesome spectacle of a battle between a mastodon and a saber-toothed tiger, consid- cred one of the most vicious of the prehistoric carnivores, pre- sented itself when the perfectly preserved skulls of the two anil mals were dug from the depths of the rich oil pit.
 The long tusks of the tiger had completely pierced the jaw of the mastodon. The animals had thus locked in a terrific struggle that had brought death to both of them.
 In view of the difficulty of procuring food, scientists be- lieve many of the prehistoric men were cannibals. A man thought to have antedated the oldest inhabitant of New Eng land by at least ten thousand years was found in 1914 at Ipswich; Conn. He was discov- cred in a Skitchen-midden," or shell mound, the structure of which indicated the number of years that he had been buried. In the mound was an ancient fireplace, and beside it num- Der of bones broken into short pieces. These were human bones and lead scientists to be- ieye that thn aarliaSt rasidarta

but his retreat was cut off. Other animals were gathering to devour the prey. The infuriated buffalo overlook the man in one great stride as he sought a path to freedom, and trampled him to death beneath his huge hoofs.
 The effect of the spear must have proved fatal to the buffalo as the man was dying, and the animal sank ex- hausted, dying beside his foe. By reason of the position and condition of the bones, which had lain together through the ages, scientists were able to piece together this thrilling story.
 Throughout the world anthropolo- gists are eagerly r@constructing every remnant of ancient life within their grasp, ceaselessly endeavoring to solve the mystery of the dim past. Whether or not the so-called missing link is ever discovered that will give proof to the theory regarding the common ancestry of men and the anthropoid ape, science has already proved to it's satisfaction that a race of men of far greater stature than any known to exist today, lived and fought with prehistoric ami mals of overwhelming size.
 The. facts of mans primitive exist ence have been based for years upon the discovery of skeletons, fossils and bones of men who lived thousands and even millions of years ago. Skeletons
New Britain herald., 1929-07-06

VIDENCE of a mighty battle be- T tween an extinct species of
 great buffalo and a prehistoric giant man, eight feet tall, were re- gently revealed in a most romantic manner in South Africa.
 Modern machinery once again gave science new facts on which to develop its theory as to mans early life and origin. Road makers, while pushing civilization into the heart of the Trans vaal, had progressed as far as an old quarry near Pretoria, when suddenly the workers were faced with startling picture preserved from remote age.
 Engineers were preparing to dyna- mite a section of stone, when they were halted by shout from the man who was planting the fuse. They hur- ried to investigate the cause of his eX- citement, and, to their amazement, saw before them the bones of the buffalo and the gigantic man. The skeletons were lying close together in the same stratum, which geologists later as- serted dates back to the primordial age of the Dark Continent.
 The excitement of the road builders, however, was slight compared to that of s. Wierstra, director of the Trans vaaal Museum, when he examined the bones, which were sent to him immedi- ately He declared that the discovery of the two skeletons, all naturally fos- slized represented the most importan. discovery yet made in South Africa re- garding primitive man.
 From the arrangement of the skull bones anthropologistS reached the in- teresting conclusion that the prehis- toric African man was of the white race. This finding is considered of great importance, in view of many theories that have pointed to the pres ence of lost race of giant white men living in Africa before the Continent was dominated by the negro race.
 Although the exact details surround ing the terrific struggle can never be known, experts have been able to de- pict from the evidence available, a thrilling picture of how the prehistoric man probably made his last stand against the buffalo.
 He was equipped with muscles of Iron and bicepS twice the size of 8 modern strong mans" but he had to defend himself against an animal ten or twenty times his size and strength.
 Not only did the men of prehistoric times have to protect themselves con- stantiy against huge animals, but, in order to live. they had to secure food at the rsk of terrifying dangers. To prehistoric n1an starvation was frightfIl, evcr-present ogre, against which he could prepare defense only Q few days in advA,cn.

giant animals of the past, sucn as the mastodon, the dinosaur and thc mammoth, have not survived the test of time.
 For descendants of the ancient giant men science has been able tc ,'scon- struct mary vivid pi c t tur Q , of t.e past. The diSeov- cries of prehistoric bones in the eli fields of La Brea Rancho, near Los Angeles, Cal, stim- ulated many such imaginary pictures. Here the "Angelus Man" was found in a tar pool. In ve S Ii 2 a u on di- vulged the star ting fact that the GA n z C lu s Man was not a man at all-but a woman. It is thought she met a violent death as the victim of
