Back Him For Job
After April |

E. H. Nunnally, for many years
prominent in West Virginia Dem
ocratic and labor circles, probably
will be the next United States
Marshal for the District Of Colum-
bia.
This is the consensus in Admin
iStration circles. His appointment
probably will be made about April
/, when Edgar Snyder, the present
marshal, is expected to step out.
Mr.. Nunnally, although a Vir-
ginian by birth and member Of
the prominent Nunnally family Of
the Old Dominion, has been iden-
titled with West Virginia labor
and political circles for many
years. He has been a resident of
Washington since 1928, and is en-
ployed in the Bureau of Standards.
He lives at 3817 Legation st. He
is married and has three children.
The list of sponsors for Mr..
Nunnally reads like a Who's Who
in Democracy. He has the indorse-
ment of the entire West Virginia
delegation in Congress and all the
high political and labor leaders
in that State. Thirty-five Senators
have Endorsed him. John w.

date for President, and a long
time personal and political friend.

Today's Science
by DAVID DIETZ'

A NEW chapter in the history OF mankind which
n links the savage of caveman days with the
beginnings of written history has been unearthed
according Dr. w. F Albright professor of semetcs
at Johns Hopkins university.
Professor Albright calls ii the chalcolithic cop
perstone age 1t fits in between the stone age and
the bronze age.
Professor Albright himself unearthed evidence of
the copper-stOne age in MeSopotamia while conduct
ing an archaeological expedition in that region Sir
Flinders Petrie, he said found evidences of it in
Egypt and other explorers have identified it in Syria
and Palestine
The so-called dynastic history of Egypt begins in
5000 B. c. The discovery of the copper-Stone age
carries the story of back TO at least 5000 B. c.
Professor Albright said.
This period marks the beginning of mans social
organization he said. 1t was in this period that
man first settled down and began to build villages in
the open.
we find two types of huts dating from this
period One built of reeds. The other was built
from crude, unShaped bricks. These bricks were
mere Jumps of clay which were fitted together to
make wall in the fashion that we now build
fences of round rocks.
But these early men already good artists
The interiors of the huts decorated with excel
lent freScoes.'
A characteristic of the copper-stone age
n was the making of painted pottery he says This
is found in Egypt. Syria. MeSopotamia and Palestine
AS the name indicates. copper was known at this
time. but stone still largely employed
Dr. Albright says that in the countries named,
man went directly from the middle stone age to the
copper-stone age. Meanwhile. in Europe where cop
per was not yet known the middle stone age devel-
oped into the stone age.
Recent discoveries in Palestine which have been
called remains of the Biblical cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah really belong to the copper-Stone age &C
cording DR.. Albright.
The real Sodom and Gomorrah are probably
buried beneath the Dead Sea, he says He believes
that some catacylsm, like earthquake or drop
ping subsistence Of large of land. accounted
for their destruction.
He says that it is likely that the cities existed and
that OF the biblical characters actually lived He
dates the time of Abraham IS between 1000 and
1000 B. C..
DR.. Albright's discovery is of the inter-
esting which has been announced so far at the an
nual spring scientific meetings Last week Americas
most famous scientists were in Philadelphia for the
spring meeting Of the American Philosophical
Society.

Comic Artists Do 1t

THE citizens took the change in their stride all but
- Mr. White, the artist, who probably thinks it
still is necessary to ring three times and tell them
he is friend of Louie's when he wants to buy

mario from which to draw his muralS in such cases
They do this in the comic strip business with salts
factory results.
Working from scenario, Mr.. White might not
understand clearly what his painting meant to
depict, but that would be all right.
In some of the funny picture factories the comic
artist just draws and draws eight hours day until
the clock strikes and he brushes the eraser-dust off
himself snaps off his visor and Sateen sleeves and
goes home He doesn't know what he has been
drawing either, and moreover he doesn't care
hope they will not compel Mr.. White to do his
painting all over, but if they should ask him to
bring it up to date he might use the following for
guidance:
Little boy blue, come blow your horn

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FISHBEIN-

THERE is special significance about the celebra-
ton of Child Health day in 1884
Children always have been among the greatest
sufferers during periods of depression. At such
times their nutrition is likely to suffer simply be-
cause Of lack of adequate food
However, the child also is subjected to exposure,
during periods Of depression because of inadequate
housing and clothing, and because of inadequate
fuel.
The childrens charter, which came out of the
White House conference on Child Health and Pro-
lection says that every child has the right to a
dwelling place that is safe sanitary and wholesome
1t lists among the rights of the child the right to
grow up in family with adequate standards Of
living.
GOOD health is fundamental to efficiency
~ healthful child is able carry on its life with
happiness 1t does not become too tired quickly
1t sleeps well.
1t is always ready to associate with other chill
dren in games and in work
The students of child health have established
carefully the signs by which you can recognize
whether your child is developing satisfactorily from
both mental and physical points of view
The child health charter says that every child is
entitled to protection of its health from birth
through adolescence Such protection should include
regular physical examination each year
VOUR childs weight should be adequate to its
height and its age. It's teeth should be clean
free from cavities its gums free from infection
If there is difficulty with its breathing from tonsils
or adenoids, these should have proper medical at
tention
It's diet should include adequate amounts of pro-
teins for growth carbohydrates and fats for energy
mineral salts necessary for development of tissues
OF the oooy and ytamins necessary to adequate de-
velopment, prevention of infection, and absence of
deficiency diseases

titled to suitable study which will show whether its
organs can function as well those of other chill
