She cautiously refrained from

that a million dollar word for
stamp collector?
Any one who has to live up to

we just have run riot with stamps.
The Washington bicentennial
started the procession, with it's
twelve denominations, each pic

quite handsome except the 9-cent

1t was unfortunate that this
particular stamp was not attrac-

him in his Masonic uniform. The
Masons dedicated their memorial
in Alexandria, Va, this year and
that stamp played a prominent
part with philatelists.

The taffy pulling man at the
Indiana state fair is laboring over
time this Labor day.
He's pulled a couple of joints
out of place trying to keep up
with boydom and girlhood's big
chewS.
And it's another tough pull on
parents to get the longing eyes
of their offspring away from the
thin strips of white and pink
taffy that the taffy-man lays on
his counter.
You can see in the top photo
that all he needs is the Drawn of
his arm to pull in the customers.
Then this holiday for labor there
was another one in the fair crowd
that had more than his share of
work and that one was Moon"
Laird. the your weight-man.
Moon" is doing his best in the
lower photo to guess the weight
of Mrs. Charles McGaughey of
Greencastle, wife of that city's
ex-mayor, and her bulldog, Max.
If Moon" doesn't hit your
weight he gives you a plaster-of-
paris puppy in various hues. But
as the photo was taken it was
dog" on Moon" both in and out
of the scales. It's his ninth fair
year and he's in trim in 1882 for
he's fifty pounds lighter.

DR.. Regain holds that man and the
apes had a common ancestor more
advanced than the gibbon.
The principal continents of the
earth have each its separate tale to
tell of monkey life, the speaker
continued.
North America never had any
monkey inhabitants.
The catarrhines, or narrow nosed
monkeys, originated in Africa.
The platrrhines, or broad-nosed
monkeys, the ones that use their
tails as extra hands, have their an
cestral home in South America.
The tarsoids, a lower group of
monkey-like creatures, are trace
able to Europe.
Neither of these three groups was
ancestral to the other two; they
have all descended Independently of
each other from the original mon
key family tree.

The Bidding

Inc blod1ng
South and West passed, and
North opened the bidding with one
diamond. East passed the South
bid one no trump, remembering
that North'S opening bid in third
position might be rather weak.
Boscowitz in the North rebid the
diamond suit, thereby showing his
partner that he had hand of con-
siderable strength.
Mrs. Black in the South bid two
no trump and Mr., Boscowitz closed
the bidding with declaration of
three no trump.
The Play
The obvious lead from the West
hand was the king of clubs, on
which East played the eight spot.
While these plays we're being
made, Mrs. Black rapidly had
counted her sure tricks as four dia-
monds, two spades, one heart, and
one club.
She might procure the ninth trick
by finding the king of diamonds or
the king of hearts favorably placed,
but she would be relieved of all
danger if West could be induced to
lead a club to the second trick.
Declarer knew East to be short in
clubs, but West had no way of
knowing that and probably would
read the eight as a signal to con-
tinue the suit.
Therefore, Mrs. Black played the
four, carefully holding up the
deuce, so West would place that
card in his partners hand and
surely would read the eight for
come on.
However, Gottlieb knew the de-
clarer to be a shrewd player and

Scienne Serving Cnrresnnndent

YORK, England, Sept. 5.-Man's
evolution as physical being began
with a creature resembling the glib
bon, not with one like the gorilla or

Such is the opinion of DR.. G, Tate

The gibbon is a long-armed,
tree-dwelling ape of the East In

DR.. Regan's opinion is based in
part on noses. Man and gibbon
have short, broad nasal bones,
whereas the bigger anthropoids
have long, narrow nasal bones fused
together.
Furthermore, while mans descent
has been, paradoxically, uphill, the
gibbons has been a real descent
