''ONCE out in the open, development and

padded feet, relatively long legs and erect pos
lures. An alert race cannot develop in forest
When man had to struggle for his existence In
these Monaghan plains he learned how to stalk
and outwit the animals he ate for food. He
learned how to use his hands and fabricate
weapons and tools. And most important OF all
in this struggle to overcome nature and his
enemies, he began to develop his brain.
stimulated by this vigorous daily fight for
existence and by climate which compelled him
also to learn to find warmth and shelter, primi-
tive man in Mongolia in the course of millions
of years worked into his brain and his body
those elements of intelligence and skill which
made it possible for after race to leave the
Central Asiatic plateau, spread all over the
known world and divide itself into the numer-
Gus races of mankind which we have today.
"This theory of the development of man as
human being in the relatively friendly atmos-
phere of Mongolia is what lures us year after
year to the Cobb Desert, hoping to find the
primitive man where we can begin to dig and
find underneath the remains of one of the an
cestors of the entire human race
In this search for human remains the ex-
petitions of the American Museum Of Natural
History, under DR.. Andrews, are continually
turning up new scientific material and the fos-
sis of strange animals unknown to other parts
Of the world.
The expedition returned with skulls of am
blypods group of great hoofed animals which
were vegetable feeders and which lived in Mon
golia about 100000 years ago. They disap-
peared from Europe and America about 40 ,000,-

associates that Central Asia was the birthplace
of man.
"Pliocene man." said Dr. Andrews, may have
sat upon the hills and watched these mastodons
struggling in the bog. This is the first season
in our nine years of researches that we have
found strata young enough to contain fossils
of the ancestor of man for which we are
hunting.
IF ever primitive human remains are to be
found in Mongolia it will be in this region
where they will be discovered. The difficulty
is, however, that the extremely disturbed politi-
cal situation in China makes 1T doubtful
whether the expeditions researches can con-
tinue- If for any reason we cannot go on it
viii be a scientific tragedy"
In his hunt in the Cobb Desert DR.. Andrews
is seeking human ancestor who antedates the
recently discovered Pekin man. This ancient
gentleman left his remains in a cave for his
twentieth century heirs to find them, but as
there were no caves in Mongolia the bones of
early man, if found, will be located at one of
the points where prehistoric stream emptied
into the phantom lake or at some other point
along the dried-up shoreline.
1.-THE search for the traces of the birthplace
of man must go on in Central ASIA" said DIR.
Andrews, because all the geological evidence
we have indicates that about the time the
human race was born these present plateaus
earth for the development of our first human
ancestors.
Central Asia was an upland for long geo.
logic ages. The land remained stable while
great physical changes were taking place in
other sections of the globe. Southern Asia,
Europe and Africa rose above the sea and sank
down again. If life had any beginnings in these
other continents the rise and fall of the land
surfaces not only disturbed evolution but oper-
ated to wipe out entire orders of living things.
In Central Asia evolution was undisturbed
by such cataclysmic changes and the descen-
dants or cousins of the apes had millions of
years here in which nature did not interrupt
their development.
Mongolia was not country covered with
dense forests in these early times. The animal
remains which we have found in fossil deposits
indicate rather that it open grassy
plane with occasional clumps of forest and that
the cycle of the seasons provided changing
and stimulating climate.
Man cannot develop in forest or luxuriant
iowlands. Nuts, berries and roots provide easily
accessible food in a warm forest and no great
exertion is necessary in the struggle for ex-
istence The same is true for lands in river
bottoms or lowlands where the vegetation is
rich and luxuriant and the sun eneryates ambi-
ton curiosity
Even if the more remote ancestors of man
lived in trees or jungles, they had to come down
out Of the trees when the forests were thinning
and when the rolling savanna began to take the
place of vast acreage Of trees.

Himself Unless His Former Wife
Takes Him Back.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 15.-Katherine
Carqueville Stevens Iceberg found her
self faced today by a tangled romance
which, having once narrowly avoided
tragedy, was still fluted with dramatic
overtones
For her divorced husband, George
M. Stevens, 1r., who tried last Friday
to take his life, was quoted as saying
he would seek death again unless she
returned to him. The threat was at
tributed to him by Mrs.a Alexander
Carqueville, mother Of the former wife.
Situation Complicated.
The situation was all the more COM
plicated because both we're remarked.
Mrs. Stevens, heiress to the Thomas
Jedery automobile fortune, interrupted
her honeymoon with Robert Lee Lech-
erq at Buffalo to hurry to Stevens bed
side when she heard he had attempted
suicide. And Stevens, himself, was
married to another woman, of whom
very little was known excepting that
she Is 80 years old and comes from

While Stevens father planned to take

his convalescing son to the family home
at Mount Vernon, N. Y, the story OF
the tangled affairs were recounted by
Mrs. Carqueville.
Describing Mrs. Lecheq's visit to
Stevens bedside, Mrs. Carqueville said
Kay went to the hospital to tell George
the truth. She felt that George had
sufficiently recovered to be told that
she would not return to him-that she
is happy with Mr.. Iceberg. George
then said he would attempt to kill him
self as soon as he gets out of the hos
pital. He said his own present marriage
was simply an attempt to forget Kay"
HOpelessly Discouraged.
The superintendent of the hospital
Miss Lena johnson, said Stevens was
almost hopelessly discouraged"
He feels" she continued, that he
has ruined his own life, and that of
his former wife, her present husband,
his second wife, his father, and the
entire Carqueville family. His present
wife loves him, yet she said she will
not stand IN the way of his happiness. y
Mr.. Stevens father was understood
to be arranging q divorce for his son
from his second wife.
