SAVANT FINDS
. CANNIBAL
TRACES

Fresh evidence that cannibal-
ism once flourished in North Am
erica has been unearthed by DR..
Ales HrdIicka, curator Of physical
anthropology of the Smithsonian
Institution.
One of the outstanding an
thropologists of the world, DR..
Hrdlicka is now excavating on
Kodiak Island, off the coast OF
Alaska, where he has found what
appears to be incontrovertible
proof Of cannibalism.
In communications to DR.. T. D.
Stewart, assistant curator, DR..
Hrdlicka has announced discovery
of scattered bones throughout the
excavated village, which would IN
dictate that the early race which
inhabited Kodiak were masters OF
the art Of eating one another.
Other Bones Found
He has discovered scattered
skeleton parts also in various
parts of the village spinal
column here, a skull there.
In many instances. scientists
here have been told, he has found
long bones, which have been split
lengthwise. Most of these have
been split bv q heavy instrument,
which, according to DR.. Stewart,
is proof that the Aleuts. who in
habited the island, hacked the
bones Of their victims for the
marrow.
If the skeletons had been found
in one heap or if they weren't mu-
tilated, DR.. Hrdlicka might have
believed it was just an ordinary
burial ground, DR.. Stewart ex'
planned. But because of the fact
that the bones are broken and are
scattered throughout the village,
the anthropologist Is reasonably
certain that the Aleuts were can
nibalS.
In Refuse Heaps
Some of the broken and split
bones have also been found on
"kitchen-middens," which are
large refuse piles.
It is apparent from that, DR..
Stewart said, that the natives dis
carded the bones outside their
homes and just allowed them to
accumulate. Some of the heaps
OF bones are several feet high.
On previous expeditions to the
island, DR.. Hrdlicka discovered
two layers of habitation. On the
top layer, the anthropologist has
discovered the remains of the
Aleutian race, which is closely
akin to the Indian race.
Beneath that layer, DR.. Hrdlicka
unearthed the remains of a long
headed race more like the mod
ern Eskimo.
Preceded Russians
Because the top layer shows no
evidence of European influence,
DR.. Stewart said, DR.. Hrdlicka is
reasonably sure that the Aleuts
predated the Russian invasion of
Alaska by several centuries. The
Russians first crossed into Alaska
in the early eighteenth century.
DR.. Hrdlicka is now on his
fourth trip to Kodiak. He left
Washington for Alaska early in
the spring and is expected to re-
turn some time next month.

New York - Smart girls who
dance under the stars or in fash

these hot summer nights are wear
ing filmy gowns, as cool ?looking as
a frosty-glassed drink.
Evening dresses that float and
fiutter in the warm breezes and
billow about the ankles are more
popular than the tailor siihouettes
Of crisp linens and cottons. This
is a summer of circular godets, ac-
Gordon pleated panels and a pre-
valent theme OF femininity.
Colors are even more luscious
than you've dreamed they could
be. Instead of selecting white or
black, 4 good many women are
combining unusual tones. At the
Rainbow room one night this
week, tall, sophisticated woman
had on a Grecian gown of pale
flesh pink chifron with huge PAN
els of black chiffon extending from
waistline to hem in front. Another
wore a frothy creation Of chartre-
use with lilac ribbon sash and
corsage of violets. A younger girl
had on navy blue organdy, stud
ded with rhinestones and worn
under a full-length wrap of pale
blue net.
Wraps Are Vaporous.
Incidentally, long, fitted formal
wraps of vaporous materials such
as net, lace with widely-spaced
patterns, tulle, mousseline, organ
"a and chiffon are newer than
jaunty fip-length capes and swag-
ger coats. They cover your arms
and back in an intriguing kind of
way and allow your dress to show.
However, If you expect to ride in
a rumble seat or go for a stroll
along the side of a lake, better
wear a wrap that will keep cool
winds away from your neck and
shoulders. Quilted and stitched
taffetas in white and pastels are
charming. So are printed, quilted
cottons, uncrushable linens and
cottons that look like candlewick
bedspreads. If you want one wrap
to wear over several dresses, bet
ter pick plain white or a not-too-
vivid print, made up or all the
colors in your gowns. A girl with
one yellow, one white and one
red dress might like a quilted
cotton swagger coat with delicate
figurines of red and yellow.

BACK TO NATURAL LEFT

In answer to correspondent
you said you thought boy ought

were not very positive about it.
If you would be kind enough to

your correspondent (initials B. j..
A. I should like to write and tell
her it Is most decidedly wrong to
force a child who is naturally left
handed to do anything like writ

hand.
When my brother was quite
young my parents forced him to
change from natural left-handed-
ness to the use of his right. A few
years later a New York doctor in

his left hand. The results were al

the average, and his whole OUT
look on things has been changed
from very pessimistic one to
cheerful and happy one. This
change back to normal use of the
left hand is probably most effective
whe not too long postponed. That
is why I am anxious to tell Mrs.
B. j. A. our experience. 1t occurs
to me that you may not be at Ii
berty to give out the identity of
your correspondent. If that is so,

In reference to giving out the
identity of a correspondent. l as
sumo no correspondent would wish
me to do so In any circumstance
without his express permission.
Perhaps Mrs. B. ]. A. will see
this article.
I feel convinced in my own mind
that 1t is never advisable to at
tempt to force a child to change
handedness when the child evinces
a natural preference for the left
hand. l am quite certain it is no
part of a teachers duty to attempt
to interfere in pupils handedness.
But this is merely my opinion, and
that Is as r. j. A. thinks I should
be.
/ have observed number of
instances where forced change of
natural left-handedness to artificial
right-handedness has seemed to
have an i'll effect on the indivi-
duals meneal efficiency. I have
observed many instances where
suffering and stammering have
seemed to result from this un-
natural interference in the child S
development. And 1 have observ-
ed some instances where resump-
ton of the use of the left hand
for writing or drawing or sewing
or other fine work has seemed
to bring remarkable relief to these
conditions.
Them's my sentiments. That's all
have to say.

suitable in summer. The girl who
can rinse her hair in fresh water

in a few minutes and arrange 1t
herself, is going to have healthier

If your features are regular
and small enough to stand it, get
your locks cut very short, have a

small curls all over your head.
While drying yourf hair in the
sunshine, set the short ends in
loose ringlets, or, if you are quite
young, run your fingers through
the strands during the drying
process and forget about curls.
An even simpler arrangement
this, too, is best for regular fea-
lures and a not-too-long face
makes use of straight, bobbed hair.

OF course, in spite of the fact

SYNOPSIS
KATHARINE STRYKHURST,
20 and beautiful, allows her emo
1iOns to rule when she marries
MICHAEL HEATHEROE, young
riding instructor who comes into
b title and fortune. Katharine's
father Is rich and her stepmother
Il snobbish.
Michael, hurt in n traffic acci-
dent, loses his memory and
Katharine, unaware of this,
thinks he has regretted his bar
gain. She goes to New Mexico to
forget and on q trip to the des-
ert becomes lost. Michael, mean
time, has recovered his memory
and set out to find Katharine and
explain.
Back home Katharine's friend,
ZOE PARKER, learns of the
marriage of Katharine and
Michael when a servant shows
her the certificate. DIR. JOHN
KAYE, in love with Katharine,
unwittingly picks up the certi-
ficate when Zoe drops 1t.
CHAPTER XIII
He'll kill him-Prince will kill
Jocki" Zoe went on. HE nearly
tore him to bits last year. I told
Gracia not to let him come in here,
except on leash"
Frantically they sought to part
the two dogs. Oracle, very elegant
in walking costume of gray, CIV
ing an impression of the sports
woman at her most brilliant mo-
ment, strolled into sight.
Zoe had a willow switch which
was proving quite Intellectual.
Finally DIR. Kaye managed to grip
Jocks collar and drag him away.
Zoe, almost sobbing, received the
battered little terrier into her
arms.
"You naughty puppy! You de-
serve to be whipped. Why don't
you obey me-"
John Kaye, following her, picked
up the folded paper she had
dropped.
A brassy sun wheeled across a
molten sky. Here and there were
clumps of mesquite and sagebrush.
But there was not one single living
thing in sight save the tall, slim
girl in riding things who stumbled
across that dreary desert.
It seemed to Katharine she had
been walking for hours. The wrist
watch strapped to her slender
wrist told her it was half-past IL.
Any moment now, she told herself
CALAMITY, she might see the car
and the tent and the little group
of civilized human beings she had
left behind. Any moment
meantime she must keep on going.
To stop meant madness.
II she only had single drink of
water! Just half a glass
quarter of a glass to quench the
thirst that already tortured her.
She thought of the mountain
stream in which she had carelessly
bathed yesterday morning, think
ing nothing of the largesse flowing
