ments suggestive Of Indian rather than
Eskimo.
1t is significant, DR.. Jenness point out,
that in both the Old Bering Sea and the
Dorset culture remains there are no
sledge dog bones. Numerous remains are
found of smaller dog kept for slaughter
and eating. Sledge dog bones are COM
mon in Thule sites. The Old Bering Sea
and Dorset people had no pottery while
the Thule Eskimos did. Bow and arrow
and snow shoes also were unknown to
the Old Bering Sea and Dorset people.
while they were familiar to the Thule.
This can be explained. DR.. Jenness
holds If the Old Bering Sea people are
assumed to be relatively early migrants
from Siberia. The Dorset Eskimo can be
considered as a branch pushed eastward
by the invasion Of the ancestors OF the
present Athapascan Indians.
Much later, Dr. Jenness holds, the men
represented by the Thule culture, who
may already have been subject to various
Chinese influences. made their way out
Of Siberia along the Arctic coast and pro-
ceeded as far as Greenland. Although of
the same general stock they had little
contact with those who had come before.
They had learned to use the dog for
traction and the bow and arrow for hunt
ing. They had acquired the art Of mold
ing pottery. They either had invented
or borrowed the snow shoes.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Blacky the Crow and his equally
black relatives were having a per-
fectly glorious time in Farmer
Browns cornfield. You know there
is nothing that Blacky likes more
than he does newly sprouted corn.
He always has glad feeling when
in the early spring he sees Farmer
Brown plowing up the brown earth
of the cornfield, because he knows
that in few weeks he is going to
have a feast. Farmer Brown knows
it, too, and so does Farmer Brown S
boy. They have sat up nights try
ing to think of some way to prevent
Blacky from having that feast.
They have tried all sorts of plans
for frightening Blacky away from
the cornfield. but he is SO smart that
he soon sees through their plans
and just laughs at them. He never
yet has failed to have at least one
good feast when Farmer Brown s
corn was young and tender.
That was what he was doing now
and all the time he was eating he
was making fun Of the scarecrow

These destroyers are night work
ers. as rule, though they are not
shy about coming out on cloudy
days. Because of their nocturnal
habits you may plan your attack
more efficiently as you examine the
soil near your destroyed plant and
find, coiled under clods or buried
some distance below the surface,
the greasy looking foe. Naturally
the meeting will end fatally for
the cutworm.
Fortunately, it is not difficult TO
combat cutworms, and in a shor

sounded. The enemy must be poi.

such an appeal that it cannot be

When I was q young man I lived
In New York City for a year. and
during that time became well &C.
qdainted with the Fifth avenue
buses.
Many Of the buses were double
deckers." and I always tried to find
a seat on the upper deck. With no
cover above. I felt sense of freedom
as I rode through the big, crowded
city. Sometimes I took ride when
I had no special reason to do so
except to enjoy little free time.
In late years I have noticed that
the double deck buses in New York
and other cities are usually closed
in above. The roofs keep people
dry when the rain comes down.
That is a good thing, I suppose, but
for me 1t takes away the enjoyment
of riding on the upper deck.
Drawn by Horses.
The story of the bus goes back
more than two and a half centuries.
In the year 1862 the French king
granted one of his subjects the right
to run a coach line The coaches
were drawn by horses along certain
streets of Paris.
The coach line met with success.
Each coach held six passengers and
they paid five sous apiece for ride
Most persons in Paris could not
afford a coach Of their own, so they
were glad to be able to hire a seat
for small sum.
The coaches in Paris were buses
OF a sort, though they did not have
the name. The owner of the coach
line died after two years of good
