Bridging the Gap
in Human History

Dedication of building at the
University of Chicago devoted to the
investigation of early mana build
ing which finds no parallel in any
other university. either in America
or ahroad"-draws the Near East
still nearer to the West. 1t is in the
East that the origins of the civiliza-
ton we have inherited are for the
most part hidden; and the Oriental
institute under western skies seeks
now to help man In literal sense to
'orient" himself-to get his bearings
and see in true perspective the his
tory of the human race. Especially
is it to help bridge the gap between
the savage of the paleontologist and
the historians story of the people
who emerge in Europe as civilized"
beings.
DR.. James Fl. Breasted, with his
general headquarters in this build
ing, has an army of diggers not alone
with spades, but also with modern
excavating engineering, directed by
an archaeological staff, on 1900 mile
front, stretching from Luxor in
Egypt northward past Sinai, through
Palestine and Syria to the uplands
of Anatolia, eastward and southwark
across Mesopotamia to Persepolis in
Persia Many other groups are max
ing Independent research, but for
the first time single organization
is able to control and correlate" re-
search and excavation throughout
the leading early civilizations in a
"single composite construction" of
the pre-European course of human
life, when for thousands of years
man was advancing along front as
wide as the United States.
OF special significance is the evil
dence that in this period man in
Egypt began ito bear remote voices
that proclaimed the utter futiIity of
material conquest" 1t was then that
conscience and character broke upon
the world"
In the spacious walls of the ORR
entail institute the East walks again
in its beauty and majesty, but with
SOLDERING if not frightening sugges-
ton to the present, which sees in
every object reminders of a persisted
past-of the death of civilizations
that dreamed they were immortal.
Yet every earthen fact is touched by
the spirit of skill that begat it and
is passed on as symbol of struggle
toward an ideal. The great winged
bull that looks with steady gaze into
a strange world may be but an early
dream of human flight-the mans
face appearing above the wings, the
strength of the bull suggesting the
power of the motor that has taken
the place of beasts of burden.

"Dear Miss Antrim:
experimenting my telegram of a
week ago iegret to report that on
the 21st inst. your uncle, Thomas An
trim, as the aftermath of a dispute
that arose due to your uncle's alleged
trespass with his sheep on lands not
owned by him, engaged in duel with
rifles. His antagonist, one Jim Hig-
gins, emerged the victor in this san
culinary ARRAY. From testimony it
appears, much as / regret to say so,
aggressor. In fact Higgins was
wounded three times by your relative
before he found himself In position
to return the fire. The coroner's jury
returned a verdict of justifiable homi-
eide.
TN accordance with your tele-
graphic instructions have seen to it
that your uncle received Christian
burial in Odd Fellows cemetery.
"Your uncle was well known to me.
We had community of interest in
many things, so when at his untimely
passing no one came forward to per-
form the last sad rites took it upon
myself to notify you. 1t has been
pleasure to me to have served you.
"Being at this time confined to my
home with slight indisposition, d.
rected my general manager to call
upon your uncle's foreman In charge
of some 10000 sheep on the range and
inform him that it was your wish, as
the probable heir to your uncle's es-
tate, that he continue to carry on with
the sheep until the arrival of you or
your representative here. The fore
man, a man named Bill Dingle, men
toned having a contract with your
uncle to participate to certain ex-
tent in the latter's sheep business and
stated that he was not taking orders
from anybody. My manager there
upon showed him your telegram to
me, conveying your request that l act
as your representative temporarily.
This written display of authority had
little or no effect on Bill Dingle.
While Jim Higgins is recovering from
his wounds Bill Dingle continues to
trespass on the formers lands.
"Suspecting that your uncle might
have made will, / suggested to the
public administrator that he look into
the matter. Three days ago l re-
ceived letter from this official in
forming me that the Federal Trus:
company, of Ell Paso, had forwarded
will to be filed for probate at Los
Algodones. From this will II appears
that you are the sole heir and coexe-
cutor with the Federal Trust COM
pany, whose executorship, however.
may cease. at your option, but only
after the trust company shall have
been paid certain loans made your
uncle in his lifetime. l have no in
formation as to the amount Of these
loans. If any.

a local attorney. If desired / shall
BE- happy to recommend one who has
served the Higuenes family ably and
faithfully for forty years-Don Pru-
dencio Alviso, of Los Algodones.

avoid.
Crawling s technically defined as an attempt
to advance after a player is downed, having

but it is dangerous: Once a downed player at
tempts to crawl, he invites pile-uP.
Crawling makes the referees task difficult.
In many cases, instead Of penalizng the crawIer,
he puts the penalty on the players, causing the

BIZ Science Scrrice
LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE child Of
the Neanderthal race is seen as the
father of men of the modern race
by two oxford anthropologists, L. H.
Dudley Buxton and G. R. de Beer.
In note to the editor of the British
scientific journal, Nature, they call
attention to the significance of
modern" characters of the back of
Neanderthal child's skull found at
Gibraltar by Miss Dorothy Garrod,
noted English student of ancient
men.
1.-THE resemblance between Homo
sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis
suggests that the former may have
been descended from the latter by a
progressive retention into adult life
of characters present in the young
stages of the ancestor" the two
Oxonians state.
Evolution by such means is some
times called "fetalism," but the
name "pedomorphosis" is suggested
as more appropriate. The latter
term, from the Greek, implies a
mode of form changes determined
by the structure Of the child.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE SEN
ate's passage of the Blaine repeal
resolution offset the i'll effects OF
an unfavorable federal reserve state
ment and the stock market today
firmed at the outset in fairly active
trading.
The outstanding item in the re-
serve reparte was a rise of S149,-
100000 in money in circulation
caused largely by the Michigan
bank moratorium. A loss of
$24000,000 in monetary gold also
was reported, but this was offset by
purchase by the system of $25,-
100000 in United States government
securities.
Weekly business reviews reported

ened somewhat in certain branches
of activity.
Leading stocks were bid up in
the early trading. American Tele-

made in other outstanding issues.
