Arawaks From Haiti,
Says an Investigator
Washington. — An expedition
has unearthed new light on the
"inysterious Indians who met
Columbus, and whom he im-
mortalized in history as “sim-
ple, honest and exceedingly
Hberar’ natives.
Returning from the Bahama is-
lands, Herbert W. Krieger of the
Smithsonian institution reports first
discovery of village sites of this In-
dian group.
One village where these Indians
lived was found at the entrance to
a huge cave. Under shelter of the
overhanging entrance, Mr. Krieger
unearthed a hearth where campfires
burned, and pottery used in house-
keeping. The cave stretched back
for about two city blocks.
A chiefs seat is one important
object recovered from the cave. The
seat, unlike many a stiff throne for
European kings, was made with a
lean-back effect, and had short legs
about four inches high. Scrollwork
adorned the wood.
- Like Those on Watling Island.
This village discovered by Mr.
Krieger is at Hamilton cave on Long
island. Long island was one of Co-
lumbus’ three stopping points in the
Bahamas when he made his famous
voyage in 1492. Indians of San Sal-
vador or Watling island, where Co-
lumbus first landed, were of the
same native type and group.
Science has heretofore depended
mainly on Columbus’ journal for in-
formation regarding these long-van-
ished Indians. Columbus called
them the Lucayana.'
Mr. Krieger’s search for archeo-
logical remains has produced cumu-
lative evidence that these Indians
were Arawaks who migrated from
Haiti. That is, their ancestry linked
them with South American Indians
rather than with tribes to the north
in Florida. They. had trade rela-
tions, however, with Florida, for
their pottery and other objects bear
some clues to contact with that re-
gion.
They Had Flattened Sknlls.
Sculls found by Mr. Krieger show
that the Indians met by Columbus
had heads flattened front and back.
This was a custom among Indians
in Haiti, but not in Florida, another
fact pointing to southern origin of
these Bahaman natives.
Proof that these Indians used tom-
ahawks of stone, with wood handles
is announced by Mr. Krieger. Here-
tofore, only the stone weapon heads
have been found, and these were
taken for “celtn" or unshafted stone
axes to be held in the fist. Wood
nandles have now come to light,
fhe discovery is another that links
these Indians with southern origin,
for such tomahawks were made in
South America.
Modern Negroes of the Bahamas
sometimes find the stone heads of
these tomahawks, and superstitious-
ly call them “thunderbolts.”
Optical Phenomenon
■ Is Discovered in
Strange Mineral
Corning, N. Y.—In thijs mod-
ern day, when the properties of
ordinary masses of matter are
seemingly completely known,
it was announced here that in a
strange Canadian mineral a
new phenomenon of optics had
been found.
Scientists of the Optical Society of
America heard of the baffling, glow-
ing property of a mineral known
as Hackmanite. This mineral has
been known to. science since it was
discovered, first in Greenland, back
in 1906-08 on a Danish expedition.
O. Ivan Lee, mineralogist of Jer-
sey City, described how Hackman-
ite exhibits a beautiful red-violet
color when first fractured into
pieces but how this color quickly
passes when the fresh surface is
exposed to light.
Mr. - Lee’s discovery is that this
striking and characteristic color
may be revived at will if the min-
eral is exposed to ultra-violet light
for' a short time. While kept in
the dark the color persists perma-
nently but exposure again to ordi-
nary light promptly makes the color
fade out.
There are two well-known phe-
nomena which cause materials to
glow in a fashion somewhat like Mr.
Lee's new discovery. They are flu-
orescence and phosphorescence. The
new-found glowing, however, is nei-
ther of these for the color seen is
different in shade from the min-
eral’s fluorescent or phosphorescent

when we bumped into her down-
town the other day—ye hadn’t seen
her in years. She was selecting a

She finished deciding on it before
we hunted up a drug store table
where we could visit.
“Do you like the green cover-
ing?” she asked “The walls of our

like everybody elsc’s, and green
may sound just as banal in a wing
chair, but actually I think our place
has a lot of charm for a well-used
house. The floors are pretty good,
and even if they weren’t, I’d have
to have rugs that.could be kicked

to me, I never can think of them as
grown) like to dance. Anyway I
have the rugs in the living room.

BAKING POWDER
BISCUITS TEMPT
Expert Gives Recipes Calling
for Rich Dough.
By EDITH M. BARBER
J WONDER if there are any hot
1 breads that have a more genuine
welcome than baking powder bis-
cuits? Most of us have had our dis-
appointments in regard to this
favorite. There is nothing easier to
make than good biscuits in spite
of the time worn joke about bullets
and biscuits. Biscuits depend upon
several factors, perhaps first of all
the amount of shortening. I like a
rich biscuit myself and for this rea-
son I use one and a half to two table-
spoons of shortening to each cup of
flour. The amount of baking powder
is also important—one and a half
to two teaspoons of the tartrate, or
phosphate types of baking powder
or one teaspoon of the combination
type of baking powder is generally
used with each cup of flour. The
more shortening used the less bak-
ing powder will be needed.
The flour, salt and baking powder
should be sifted together and the
shortening rubbed into the flour un-
til they are so thoroughly mixed
that thd mixture has the texture of
corn meal. The amount of liquid
which you will need depends upon
whether you • are going to roll or
drop your biscuits. If they are to be
rolled, use just enough to make a
dough which can be easily handled.
In the second case, you will, of
course, need more liquid which may
be either milk or water.
If you are going to roll and cut
your biscuits, you may either pat
out your dough, or you may knead
it slightly, depending upon what tex-
ture you like. The first method will
give you a flake biscuit; the second
will produce one of finer texture.
A hot oven should be used for
baking both types of biscuits. The
time of baking will depend some-
what upon the size of the biscuits.
If you like them piping hot, as
they should be, you may bake them
in installments. When they come to
the table, they should be hot enough
to melt the butter.
Biscuit mixtures may be varied
with the addition of grated cheese,
of fruit, nuts and spices with which
you will probably like to add extra
sugar. The dough may be rolled
thin, spread with softened butter,
brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins
and then rolled tightly and sliced.
The slices may be baked in muffin
pans, or put close together in a pie
or cake pan.
Baking Powder Biscuits.
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons tartrate or phosphate
baking powder or 2 teaspoons com-
bination baking powder.
4 tablespoons fat.
. 34 to 1 cup milk dr water.
% teaspoon salt
Mix and sift dry ingredients and
rub in the fat with the fingers or
cut it in with a knife. Make a hole
in the flour at the side pf the bowl
and add half a cup of liquid. Add
enough more liquid to make a soft
1 dough. Roll on a metal surface or
I oil-cloth until one inch thick. Cut
into rounds and bake ten or twelve
minutes in a hot oven (450 degrees
Fahrenheit). This recipe makes ten
medium-sized biscuits.
Sweet Rolls.
Rich biscuit dough.
2 tablespoons softened butter.
% cup brown sugar.
% teaspoon cinnamon.
’4 cup chopped raisins.
Roll the dough one-quarter inch
thick, spread with the butter and
sprinkle with the sugar, cinnamon
and raisins. Roll like a jelly c-ake,
cut in three-quarter inch pieces,
place close together in a greased
pie plate and bake ten to twelve
minutes in a hot oven, 425 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Rhubarb Cobbler.
1 quart rhubarb, cut into pieces.
1 cup sugar.
% cup water
Grated orange peel
Rich biscuit dough ~ _
Put the rhubarb, sugar, water,
and orange peel in a deep heat-
proof pudding dish and cook four
minutes on top of the stove. Roll
the dough and cut into rounds. Place
on top of the rhubarb and bake in
a hot oven (450 degrees Fahrenheit)
10 to 12 minutes.
Apple Dumplings.
Rich biscuit dough
Apples
Sugar i
Butter
Cinnamon
Pare, halve and core the‘apples.
Divide the crust into w parts; roll
each piece until large enough to
cover the half apple. Place the ap-
ple on the crust and sprinkle with
sugar and cinnamon. Fold the crust
over, dot with butter and bake in a
moderate oven (375 degrees Fahren-
heit) until the apples are soft. The
dumplings may be steamed thirty
to forty minutes in a closely cov-
ered steamer.
Raisin Scones.
Rich biscuit dough
% cup seedless raisins
1 «gg yolk
1 teaspoon water
To the dough add the raisins. Add
enough extra liquid so that the
scones may be dropped from a table-
spoon on to • baking sheet. Beat
the egg yolk with the water, and
spread over the scones with a pastry
brush or a piece of cheese-:loth.
Bake in a hot oven (450 degrees
Fahrenheit) for about 10 minutes.

as we sat in her lovely pastel room,.
“I’d like to know why rich or im-
portant women are such frumps.
Their houses are that way, too.
What burns me up is thinking what
I’d do if I had their chance and
money. I’d have clothes and white
rugs and all the trimmings! The
funny part is that a girl can look
very swell without spending a lot
if she just takes pains. Yet the
women who have everything we’re
hoping for will mash a felt hat on
their heads and slide into a tweed,
coat without a second glance. And
their houses get dowdier and
dowdier the more chances they
have to make them simply knock-
out."
Of course, these remarks are not
a hundred per Cent correct. Some
women of means make a whole
career out of their clothes and
houses. And some clever women -
have natural style about everything
they wear.

Then talk with men whose fam-
ilies for generations have helped
shape Boston’s destiny, and you be-
gin to sense what significant events,
affecting all America, are packed
in her 300 years of history.
Boston cash and engineering skill
built several of the great railway
systems of America. Chicago stock-
yards, to a large degree, were built
by men from Boston. She founded
the great copper-mining industry in
our West; she was the early home
‘ of many corporations, famous now
in the annals of finance, foreign
trade, construction, and manufac-
turing. »■
It was Boston brains and money
that started the great telegraph and
telephone systems that now girdle
the globe. Miraculously, almost,
she turned the jungles of Central
America and the Caribbean isles
into vast banana plantations, and
built up the greatest fruit industry
the world knows.
From Boston went groups of
thrifty, energetic men to share in
the conquest of the West. To Kansas,
especially, many colonists were sent
by the Massachusetts Emigrant Aid
company to circumvent the rise of
another slave state under the Kan-
sas-Nebraska act.
Lawrence, Kansas, is named for
an old Boston family, and many a
budding Midwest factory town drew
its first artisans from that national
ti aining school for skilled mechan-
ics which is New England.

PITHECANTHROPUS, Java’s
a famous ape-man, has been
demoted to a place definitely
among the apes, in the opinion
of his scientific discoverer, Dr.
Eugene Dubois. He was a giant
gibbon-like creature and no
man at all. Evidence: Recent-
ly found additional thighbones
which indicate that Pithecan-
thropus was “erectus” only oc-
casionally and when on uneven
ground habituaUy went stooped
over like a modern gibbon; in-
dications in jaw and skull that
his head was attached to the
spine well aft (ape-fashion) in-
stead of set on squarely at its
middle (man-fashion).
The whole Pithecanthropus ques-
tion was opened up for re-discus-
sion, according to the Dutch an-
thropologist, Dr. W. P. Van Stein
Callenfels, by the discovery a little
over a year ago of a child’s skull
at Modjokerto in Java, dated as
Early Ice age by its associated fos-
sils. The skull is stated to “belong
somewhere in the line of human de-
velopment. It may have been an
infant Pithecanthropus.”
But the previously known adult
Pithecanthropus has always been
regarded as belonging to the Mid-
dle Ice age, and Dr. Callenfels re-
gard^ it as quite unlikely that this
species began at the early time rep-
resented by the infant skull and
survived when all other Early Ice
age mammal species perished.
Just an Ice Age Gibbon.
Dr. Callenfels suggests that the
skull of Pithecanthropus may be ot
Early Ice. age date too; it was
found by an army sergeant and site
data are quite lacking. The thigh
bone may not belong with the skull
at all, but to the primitive but
definitely human type discovered in*
a Late Ice age deposit at Solo in
Java, and called Homo soloensis.
With his skull chased back to the
Early Ice age to go with the Mod-
jokerto infant skull, and his thigh-
bone appropriated by the later-com-
ing Solo Man, poor Pithecanthropus
seems rather pushed out on a limb,
away from the main trunk of human
descent. Ape-man no longer, just
a plain ape, though a big one with
a big b^ain; and so his discoverer
leaves him. . —. —,----
Gain for the Solo Man.
But the position of Solo Man, with
his 1,200-cubic-centimeter brain, is
much magnified. With another
primitive Java man, Homo wadja-
kensis, and the strange Rhodesian
Man of Africa, Dr. Dubois regards
him as representative of the most
primitive fossil human type, pre-
cursor to the present-day Australian
race, most primitive existing hu-
man type.
The Dutch anthropologist charac-
terizes Solo, Wadjak and Rhodesian
as “the most important of all known
fossil men, as representing the most
primitive type of Homo sapiens.”

of the customhouse. It
down on that cobweb
of narrow, crooked
streets which marks the “city lim-
its” of bygone days, when cows
grazed on the Common and clipper
ships traded with China and Bom-
bay.
In the shadow of modern struc-
tures squat many old-style shops
and “countinghouses,” already
weather-beaten when John Hancock
was governor. To Boston these are
more than obsolete architecture;
they are symbols pf her busy, au-
dacious youth when she built and
sailed our first merchant fleet.
Modern Boston sprawls over more
than 1,000 square miles and counts
some 2,300,000 people in her metro-
politan district. Much of that is in
the pattern of other American cities.
But the old Boston, so like parts of
ancient London, is unique in (the
United States.
Come down from the tower now
and see how certain of these streets
are devoted to a particular enter-
prise. This one smells of hides and
leather; along that one you see only
the gilded signs of shoe manufactu-
turers. One section smells of fish,
another of wool, and here is a wharf
fragrant with bananas.
Turn up the hill toward the vener-
able Transcript, with its columns of
genealogy, and you smell newsprint,
fresh ink, roasting coffee, and sec-
ond-hand books stacked in the open
air—any book from Gray’s “Elegy”
to “Anthony Adverse.”
Even the odd wording of sign-
boards harks back to earlier days.

tection Department,” not fire depart-

Old trades cling to old places. The
Old Oyster House, live lobsters wrig-
gling in its window tanks, stands
just as it was a hundred years ago.
Aged Carver of Pipes.
Before a window at 30 Court street
crowds watch a wrinkled artist
carve pipes. At eighty-seven, wear-
ing no glasses, he. works as skill-
fully as when he began, seventy
years ago. Monk, Viking, and In-
dian heads, skulls, lions, dogs—he
makes them all.
Give him your picture and he
will cut its likeness on a meer-
schaum bowl. For a Kentucky horse-
man he carved the image of that
rider’s favorite mount; he even
carved the “Battle of Bunker Hill”
, with 50 brier figures on one big
pipe! '
Five workmen in pipe stores here-
abouts, have a total service of more
than 200 years. “A man is on trial
until he has been here 25 years” is
a favorite joke in one shop.

early days:"Bunker Hill monument:

Tea Party; Old North church; Paul
Revere’s house; the tom'b of Mother

sacre; the sacred codfish in the

Rock, Concord, and Lexington, and
the Witch House at Salem.
Today Boston prints more books
than when she was pre-eminently a
“literary center.” Manuscripts pour
in to her editors. Novels, carloads
of dictionaries, and schoolbooks in
Spanish and English, Sanskrit and
Eskimo, are shipped from here, of-
ten to markets as remote as Bag-
dad.
Great Place for Book Printing.
Her Golden Age of letters, when
Emerson, Hawthorne, Longfellow,
Whittier, Holmes and Lowell used
to frequent the Old Corner Book
Store, passed with the rise of New
York as a market for manuscripts.
But curious visitors still seek out
Emerson’s old home at Concord;
they prowl through the country
house of Louisa M. Alcott—admis-
sion 25 cents—and drop a tear for
“Little Women.” For another 2 5
cents they see the “House of Seven
Gables” at Salem.

Years Before the Mast,” Melville’s
“Moby Dick” or “Typee,” and the

of “The Man Without a Country,”
and Julia Ward Howe, who wrote
“The Battle Hymn of the Republic,”
to Thoreau and John Boyle O’Reilly.
From Boston still come important
magazines for both adults and
youths. But . it is the stupendous
output of textbooks which as-
tonishes.

you stop to think that between 25

“There are many schoolbooks,”
said an official of a publishing com-
pany, “whose sales make that of
a popular novel look dirhinutive.
They are handled not in dozens of
boxes, but in carloads of 40,000
pounds each.
“While some of our novels, ’Uncle
I Tom’s Cabin’ and ‘Rebecca of Sun-
I nybrook Farm,’ for example, have
j sold more than half a million each,
our little school pamphlets such
as ‘Evangeline’ and ’The Courtship
of Miles Standish’ have sold at the
rate Of a million a year.
’.’The task of getting sufficient
schoolbooks ready to meet the sud-
den demand every September, when
orders come in at the last minute by
wire, means that publishers usually
begin printing these books as long
as ten months ahead.”
“Books made in Boston are sent
everywhere that English is used in
schools.” said another publisher.
“More than that; in translation, they
go to scores of foreign lands. Re-
cently orders came from Bagdad
for thousands of our Craig’s ‘Path-
ways in Science.’ Arabic transla-
tions of Breasted’s ‘Ancient Times’
and a number of our other books
are used in the schools of Iraq. Not
long ago we granted the govern-
ment of Iraq permission to translate
Caldwell and Curtis’ ‘Introduction to
Science’ into Arabic.
"You know that the British Isles
are a citadel of the classics. We

one of the states of Australia, be-
