August 14 (by mail).—Who the people were who erected the massive walls, forti- fications and platforms to be found on widely separated islands all through the South seas still remains a mystery.

He is now on his w Rapa to investigate the megalithic remains on the slopes of the moun- tains there. The same race that erected the colossal statues on Easter Island, he believes, con- structed the Rapa fortifications. These great builders were a race of white men of Aryan stock, ac- cording to Prof. MacMillan-Brown of New Zealand. who has written a book in support of his conten- tion. After emigrating across the steppes of Asia in the stone age, the New Zealand professor sa: these white men finally the Japanese islands. But again they moved on, this time com- pelled by increasing pressure of Mongolian hordes coming down from the high plateaus of the con- tinent. and they went out to find new habitations across the wide expanses of the Pacific. There they set up an island em- pire. with its capital the great | megalithic city, the walls of which still stand, on the Island of Po- nape, in the Carolines. It was this white race, the professor maintains, that in the days of their undisputed possession of the South sea islands erected these enduring monuments.

Bonafide tests have been made by engineering authorities (we have the records to show you) which prove the RAY to be THREE TIMES AS RUGGED as other widely known makes.
