FORMER WEST VIRGINIA
GIRL is STATE LEADER

(Morgantown Dominion-News)
Trails across the continent have led
back to West Virginia again for Mrs.
Polly johnson Hanst, former Brax-
ton county All club girl who took a
degree in home economics at West
Virginia University and then served
for about two years as home demon
stration agent in Richie county, fol-
lowing which she Joined the staff OF
the Farmers Wife, published at ST..
Paul, Minnesota, as junior editor in
charge of it's page for All Club men,
bers and young people.
In this capacity her work took her
to many parts of the United States
and gave her an opportunity to learn
about the activities Of All Club mem
bers as conducted in all parts of the
country. Her articles in this maya
zine have been an inspiration for the
young people throughout the nation
and her achievements in this field
have led to a call from her native
state which she has accepted and re-
turned as acting State leader of All
girls work.
Mrs. Hanst still retains her connec-
ton with the Farmers Wife, however,
and will edit the page devoted to All
and young peoples activities. She
will be in charge of the girls state All
camp at Jackson's Mill, June % to
July s, and has already arranged for
one of the most constructive and help

HARNED'S CONTRIBUTION
TO BOTANY NOTABLE
"Wild Flowers of the Allegha-
nies' Called Classic by Critic
Cumberland Evening Times)

Cumberland Evening Times)
An unusual book, product of Mary
land genius, and work of art as to
book-making, is "Wild Flowers of the
Alleghanies," by Joseph E. Harmed,
of Oakland. Modest regarding his
own accomplishments, Mr.. Harmed is
proud of the book as a contribution
to the book-maker's art. 1t was print
ed by the Sincell Printing Company,
Oakland.
"Wild Flowers of the Alleghanies"
is one of the most complete botanical
works by an American author and
leading botanists and educators are
not slow in making this assertion. 1t
covers nearly 700 pages and has eight
colored plates besides 400 illustrations
from line drawings. The work, while
of general interest, placing its au-
thor's name among the greatest botan-
lists, had decidedly local appeal and
will enlighten flower lovers about the
wild flower species at their very doors.
In the introduction Mr.. Harmed
pays tribute to the memory of my
departed friend, Professor George M.
Perdew, of Cumberland, Md, with
whose cooperation in his lifetime was
planned the publication of small vol
ume on the wild flowers of Western
Maryland. Companionship with him
in the field of nature was a continu-
Gus source of encouragement and OF
pleasure. His genial disposition and
great interest in plant life found full
expression in his association with the
youth who came under his influence
and instruction"
The work is devoid of technicality
and as such has a great appeal to the
layman. 1t will be read with gripping
interest by any flower lover. 1t has
many unusual features. The New York
Times gives it high commentator in
a review.

and delivered at some home in
Chapel Hill.
"Plowed fields are the best

the farmers keep them clean.
Each blowing turns up a few
more arrow heads-if there are
any there to be turned up-and
there are nearly always some. |
! have looked in dozens and dozens
of fields within five miles of
Chapel Hill, and in only two or
three places have | failed to find
at least one specimen. OF course
some fields are better than 9TH
ers. The best are those which
lie along Morgan creek to the
south and southwest Of town and
along New Hope creek to the
east.
"Sometimes you walk for
miles and do not see single
relic. Again, you come upon a
field where thirty or forty good
pieces and any number Of frag-
ments may be picked up with no
trouble at all. Mr.. Wolf and |
frequently go out together. When
we find good field we take three
rows each, or twelve to a round
trip, until we cover the whole
field. | am sure many a farmer
has wondered what the devil
those two men meant by walk
ing up and down his cornheld
with their heads down!
1T appears that Indians
must have been around here IN
considerable numbers. Plenty
of water in the creeks, and
springs on the hill, made it good
territory for them. Settlements
are indicated by the concentra-
ton of arrow heads in certain
places. For example, east of
Chapel Hill, on a ridge roughly
paralelling New Hope creek,
there are five or s x small areas
of concentration with few relics
in the intervening spaces. Here
there must have been either vii
lages or work camps.
Little is known as to the ex-
act breeds of Indians who lived
here. They have usually been
called Cherokees, but Cherokee
is broad term. The relics
range all the way from the
crudest sort of tools to some very
excellent pieces, so that one may
conclude either (1) that differ
ent tribes or groups, varying
widely in their stone-chipping

tain areas, mile or so to the
east of the village. have yielded
so many that these areas are
thought to have been the sites
Of villages back in the days be-
fore the country was settled by
white men.
J. A. Warren, DR.. J. B. Bull
lit, w. E. Caldwell, Guy B.
Johnson, and others of our citl-
Zens have made collections Of IN
dian objects picked up here
abouts. Warren King More
head, director of archaeology at
Phillips Academy, who came
here recently to give an illus
trated lecture, inspected some OF
these collections with keen in
terest.
The other day | asked Guy b.
Johnson to tell me about the
signs Of Indian life around
Chapel Hill.
THE relics found around
here" he said, "are mostly ar
row heads and spear points, but
occasionally We run across
knives and scraperS or crude
tomahaWk or hatchet AS far
as | know, no fancy piece, such
as polished axe or pipe or a
whole piece of pottery, has been
found in this vicinity in recent
years. | have heard from Ne
grOes stories of beads and pot

out beyond the golf course.
Finds are most likely IN
plowed fields and other places
where the top layer OF decayed
vegetable matter has been re-
moved. AS an example of the
latter, there are several places
a few miles east of the village,
on the Raleigh road, where the
road builders scraped up soil
over rather extensive spaces in
order to make fills. In some
spots the scraping was just deep
enough to remove the layer OF
leafy matter which had accumu-
lated since the arrow heads were
dropped. Mr.. Wolf and | have
found several Indian objects in
these places. Sometimes the
scrapers took up relics and de-
posted them in the road, where
| suppose they will rest a long,

Hunting arrow heads is fine
exercise and recreation. Any
one who tries it around Chapel
Hill will certainly earn all he
finds, for most of the fields have
been under cultivation so long
that they have been pretty we'll
picked over. Mr.. Douglas
Wright of Winston-Salem told
| me recently that several years
ago he went down Morgan creek
and picked up $50 pieces in a
couple of hours. | doubt if
there are many fields near here
where this could be done now.
"People sometimes wonder
how it is that there are any ar
roWheads at all left to be picked
up. VIII there be any fifty
years hence? Well, | should say
that people will still be finding
them hundreds Of years from
now. There are thousands of
them lying undisturbed on
wooded land. When this land is
cleared, arrow heads will be
! turned up. Then, too, in many
places they are constantly being
washed along with the top soil
and deposited in flats here and
there. In the course of time
these deposits become hills and
undergo erosion, with the result
that the arrow heads are eX-
posed once more.
! "Arrowheads and other relics
may be studied statistlcally If
they are sufficiently numerous.
DR.. Warren X. Moorehead IS
making a statistical survey OF
the various types of arrow
heads and their distribution
throughout the United States.
This work is based on the as
sumption that when a collection
of relics from a certain locality
is large enough (say, 5000
pieces or more), it will repre-
sent a fair sample of all the diff
ferent kinds that were ever
present in that locality, and that
when all the types and their
relative frequencies are plotted
on a map they will show us
something about the different
kinds of Indian cultures, the
relative dates of settlement OF
different parts of the United
States, etc. On the basis of the
work which he has already done,
DR.. MoOrehead has tentatively
decided that the red men on the
Atlantic coast antedated those
on the Pacific-a theory which
is counter to the one now ac-
cepted and which may be des-

Treatment Of Tonsils.

In the past few years there has been
a pronounced change in medical prac-
tice In respect to the method of deal
ing with tonsAs. The reform has been
brought about largely by the studies Of
Kaiser of Rochester, N. Y, and Welch
Of Kansas City, Mo, I believe. The
former tabulated the results Of ton
sillectomy in several thousand school
children, using as control an equal
number of school children who had not
had tonsils removed. The latter made
pathological examination of thou
sand tonsils after they had been re-
moved in dispensary by good throat
specialists No physician who Is ia
miliar with these studies can con-
scientiously advise the removal Of ton
slls In the radical way we all believed
right 10 or IS years ago.
Before the physician can decide that
given tonsil is abnormal, pathological,
infected or diseased or that 1t requires
any kind Of radical treatment, he makes
proper examination of the tonsil, and
that does not mean a mere inspection.
It means the doctor must feel of the
of instruments which will tell him its
consistence and character.
The practice Of rounding up bus
loads Of school children or other help
less dependents and taking them into
the "clinic" to have all their tonsils
and adenoids removed can no longer be
tolerated in intelligent communities.

To make the chain, bring the needle
up through the material, put it back in
the same hole and take small stsch,
thus bringing the needle up little way
ahead of where it was first inserted, and
through the loop the thread forms on
the top Of the textile. Always start
each stitch in the same place that the
previous stitch ended, for thus the loop
is formed through which the thread is
drawn to form the links of the chain.
With the thumb of the left hand hold
the loop down under the needle as each
stitch is being taken, and do not pull
the thread SO tight that the textile has
any tendency to draw up.
After the chain stitches have been
taken, either in rows or in circles, make
little cross stitches in the spaces Of the
