When a man or an ape is born the eyes are set comparatively far apart. During growth they come relatively closer together, a progres- sive sign. In this respect some of the apes have bested man, having nar- rower spaces between the eyes than more primitive humans. 6. In man, the orang-utan and the gorilla the relative size of the ears decreases after birth, while in other mammals it increases. 7. There are a number of clogg cor- respondences in the development of the hand, both in manlike apes and in man, which are believed to uphold the theory of direct relationship. Man has a proportionately longer thumb than any monkey or ape, but in all primates the thumb becomes gradu- ally shorter in relation to the hand length as growth advances. This proc- ess has not advanced so far in man as in some of his alleged relatives. Some monkeys have lost their thumbs altogether after birth, although these are present in the embryo, showing Bowdoin Also Encounters Icebergs on Volage From Forteau. Steers Clear of Attack on Amendment to D. C. Ap- propriation Bill. “Fifis” and “Flufia” Fewer—Flappers’ Favor Turns to Livelier Pups. Some of the most essential evidence vet produced in support of the theory of evolution as it concerns the descent of man, the result of original data gathered by Dr. Adolph H. Schultz of the Carnegie Institution, who may be one of the chief witnesses at the Scopes trfal this month, is made public for the first time in the latest issue of the officlal journal of the Washington Academy of Sclemnces. In gathering observations to uphold the claim that man is descended from a common ancestor with the man-like apes, Dr. Schultz centers his attention on the mysterious changes which take place in the human being during the months before birth. It now is an accepted doctrine of evolutionists that a human being be- fore birth passes through certain of the stages of the evolution of the race itself from the first life forms—that is that there are periods in the develop- ment of the human embryo when it is somewhat like the embryo of a fish, of a reptile and of a mammal.

Myron T. Herrick, American Am-| bassador, who accompanied the dele- gation, gave a toast to the President of the republic and “my friend M.

The American delegates lunched with officials of the exposition at a restaurant in the Bols de Boulogne, and after the presidential reception were welcomed by official representa- tives of the City of Paris at the Hotel de Ville.

Refineries Set New Record of 922,- 000,000 Gallons. Exceeding the previous high-produc- tion mark set in April, gasoline re- finerfes in the United States set a new high record in May, when the output of gasoline amounted to 922,000,000 gallons. Announcing the production today, the Bureau of Mines said the production figures for May were 61,- 000,000 gallons higher than the pre- vious record of April. Daily average gasoline production in May was 29,- 750,000 gallons, an increase over April of 4 per cent and over May, 1924, of 18 per cent. ‘While production of gasoline was increasing, consumption of the motor fuel also was on the upgrade, domestic demand during May amounting to 832,000,000 gallons, a dhily average of 26,800,000 gallons. This represents an | | daily average consumption figures of 11 per cent and an increase over May, 1924, of 24 per cent.

In the direction -of losing his tail, the orang-utan probably has gone | further than man. Dissection of the body of an adult man shows that the remnants of a tail, concealed inside the body, contain four or five verte-| brae. The orang-utan has only twr or_three vertebrae. The Barbary ape, on the other hand, has not progressed as far as eithe man or orang-utan, and carries | through life a very short appendage, which is belleved to represent the | same thing as the embryoalc tail in| the former two. | Bones Show Progress. | 3. In the human embryo the collar bones turn up 8o as to form two sides | of a triangle. In adult whites the| collar bones are almost _straight | across, in primitive races they still| form two sides of a triangle, although with a conslderably greater angle than before birth. In the apes they retain | the same position in the adult as be- fore birth. This, argues Dr. Schultz, | illustrates evolution in the making, showing not only where man as a| whole is differing progressively from the apes, but where the white race| is differing progressively from other | races. 4. The brain part in the head of a man exceeds that of any other pri- mate. Man cannot claim to have the largest head, however, which re mains abéut in proportion to the trunk in all members of the primate family. Relative to the size of the trunks, the heads of men and apes at birth are larger than at any other time of life. In none of them does | the head keep pace with the growth | of the body.

NEW YORK, July 3.—The con- troversy involving control of the Rus- slan ‘Orthodox Greek Catholic Church in the United States, with its $40,000,- 000 of property assets, moved intd another phase yesterday. The de- posed group, under Archbishop Roz- destvensky, obtained a Supreme Court order requiring the newly installed dignitaries to show cause why they should not be held in contempt for having taken possession of the Cathe- dral of St. Nicholas. The order is re- turnable_today. The Rozdestvensky faction was ousted Wednesday by a detachment of police on a court order authoriz- ing Archbishop Phillipovsky to take charge of the cathedral and with it the status of de jure head of the sect, Notice to vacate having been ignored, the aid of the police was sought to enforce the order.

In & number of monkeys there is a web between the second and third toes. In the human embryo the toes are webbed at some stages of development. Occasionally humans are born with webbed toes. The peculiar conclusion to be drawn from some of Dr. Schultz's observa- tions, scientists here claim, is not alone that men are rather closely related to the higher apes, but that the opes, in . have progressed further rom the original ancestor than has | an. In respect to the thumb, for instance, the lon-vanished common ncestor of man and monkey was probably considerably closer to man. “An almost endless number of other findings,” Dr. Schultz , “could be added to these scat- tered data. Embryology is capable of producing valuable corroborations of the evolutionary theory, as well as| shedding new light on the ancestral conditions of the human body. The outstanding conclusions can be sum- marized by stating that the many ape and monkey in early development and their frequently close correspond- ing growth changes can only be un- derstood by assuming one common origin for all primates, including man Furthermore, there exists ample evi dence for the conclusion that the hu- man body is in many points less spe- clalized and hence has remained in some respects more original and primi- tive than have various other pri- mates.” STUFFS PHONE BOX FULL AFTER CALL TO HAVANA Long Distance Tglking Champion Runs Up Bill for $118, Then Comes Back for More.
