FRIDAY. EVENING, MARCH 11, 1921 — THE BEMI DJ1 DAILY PIONEER SNAKES ONCE -WERE LIZARDS They Have Undergone a Form °f Evolution, Evolutionists—and that .word in- cludes almost all modern scientists— declare the snake, as we know it today, Is merely the offspring of the lizard. The fawily is traced back hundreds of thousands of years to a time when one of the semi-sea monsters crawled out *on the iand and elected to-stay there. Among the species was one with very short legs. As he lumbered along over e ground he discovered that by flat- tening his belly to the ground and working his ribs that the leverage thus gained helped him along faster. Ie came to depend more and more upon this method of movement and nature took its nsual course in elm- inating organs or limbs not in use. The low lizard lost its legs and be- came a crawler. As the centuries passed natural selection left these with Jong bodies, as they could move faster than the ones with the short bodles, and therefore the breeding soon be- came a matter of length until the snake as we know it today resulted. Another species remained in theé wa- ter a great deal but crawled about the bottom, and from that came something that we would today call a sea ser- pent, a creature about 43 or 50.feet Jong, with wide and tooth-armed jaws, It has been extinct for many centuries.
