Up Scholarships To
Study C~OOperatives

st. Paul, Minn.-Ten four-yeal
college scholarships in cooperative
study are being offered to children
of Northwest farmers by the Farm
ers Union Grain Terminal Associa-
ton, it was announced by M. w
Thatcher, general manager.
Five of the scholarship awards are
for the four-year term beginning in
1913. Five more scholarships will
be awarded for the four-year period
beginning with the 1949 fall term.
The scholarships are for Valpara-
iso University, Valparaiso, Indiana.
Each scholarship is for $4,000. The
winners will receive $500 each of
the four years they are in school.
Applications for the first five schol-
arships will close Oct. II.
The awarding of the scholarships
for cooperative study was termed
by Mr.. Thatcher to be frankly an
experimental venture. The purpose
is to encourage an objective study
of ~co-operatives and to encourage
colleges to offer a broader study of
of co-operatives as a part of their
curriculum.

Faith in peace was another, call

Faith in the American constitution

of the republican democracy may

Education as a talisman reflects
a basic principle of this country:
the creation of an enlightened peo-

The last talisman listed was God,

Scientists Find
Prehistoric Zoo
Fossils go Million Years Old
Are Discovered in
New Mexico.

NEW YORK. "A prehistoric zoo
has been unearthed in New Mexico.
First came fossils of the earliest
dinosaurs. Then alligator-like crea-
lures.
According to a new report from
an expedition of the American Mu-
scum of Natural History, more than
40 other kinds of animals that lived
about go million years ago-just
about the start of the age of man,
mails to which man belongs, have
been dug up near Landrith, N. M.
Included in these new finds are
the fossils of the lemur, believed to
be a relative or a f%orerunner of
man. This animal, which still lives
in the world, particularly Madagas-
car, is not the ~so-called missing
link"
The lemur, a small animal about
a foot high, resembled a monkey,
but had a sharp, fox-like face. DR..
dition, reported that fossils of sew
eral lemurs had been turned up.
He described the new finds as
"the richest single deposit of early
mammal bones ever found in the
Southwest and perhaps of this age
in the world"
Many Queer Ones.
Simpsons preliminary report, re-
leased by Wayne M. Faunce, vice
director of the museum, said the
new discoveries include the fossils
of extinct species of snails, fishes,
lizards, snakes, turtles, a~lligators
and squirrel-like rodents, the flesh
creodents, the four-toed
horse, called eohippus, and the
catch of all-complete skele-
tons of the meniscotherium.
The meniscotherium long has
been a mystery ANIMAL" and the
discoveries are expected to
clear up many unanswered ques-
about this creature.
The new discovery, according to
the report from Simpson, has made
It possible definitely to identify the
meniscotherium as a small man.
The creature had a head only four
Or five inches long. 1t stood about a
foot high. 1t had five toes on each
foot, and each toe had a separate
1oof.
The meniscotherium, a plant
eater, didn't last long, the scientists
say. Paleontologically speaking, it
vas a weakling and became extinct
In TriasSic Period.
Faunce said the skeletons were of
creatures that belonged to the The
order of dinosaurs in the /

posterity would "enlarge" and
would "dwell in the tents of

were to be influenced by the

Instead of mankind taking
warning from the various
judgments which God had Wis
tied upon them, they went
from bad to worse, until the
whole world was stepped in
gross idolatry. God therefore
planned to call a particular ma
ton into existence. The ma
ton of Israel was to be a wit
ness for Him to all other ma
tons. God gave to Abram the
promise of the Coming Mes
siah, in Whom call the families
of the earth were to be bles-
sed." God also set apart the
Land of Palestine as special
inheritance for Abraham's
seed. God repeated these Won
derful promises to Isaac, and
also to Jacob. While some of
the promises made to Abra-
ham were unconditional, 9TH
ers were contingent upon ODE

After mans fall, God ex-

conscience in choosing the
good and refusing the evil.
Conscience is Gods monitor in
man, by means of which man
has the faculty of discerning
what is good and right. AS men
multiplied on the earth, their
wickedness increased, and
"every imagination of the
thoughts of their hearts was
only evil continually" They
completely disregarded the
dictates of conscience until
"the earth was corrupt before
God and was filled with vio-
lence." The Dispensation of
Conscience also ended with
judgment. God drought a
