C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER ‘5, 1929, MAIDU DEAD MUST SWIM TO REACH INDIAN HEAVEN Tribe Believes Members’ Failure to Cross River Results in Their Relncarnation. The white man cannot tell the Indian anything about the importance of swim- ming, at least not those Indians who {|lend credence to the old beliefs of the Southern Maldu. The white man stresses the importance of swimming as a means of saving one's life, but the Southern Maidu believes that one couid not get to Indian heaven without know- ing how to swim. This fact has just been iearned by the University of Cali- fornia department of anthropology through the work of Ralph Beals, grad- | uate student, in gathering up the cul- tural story of the fast-disappearing Southern Maidu tribe, says the San Francisco Chronicle. Beals passed three months among the Maidu, whose old hunting grounds ex- tended generally from Sacramento to the Sierra Nevadas and from Ione to | Nevada City. He found that, although | there are about 1,000 people with Maidu | blood in their veins, only about 35 full- blooded remain and of these two-thirds May Represent Italy caloain COUNT MANZONI, are either too young to remember their ancient tribal customs or too old to give any information about them.

Boltares, who confessed soon after his arrest, said the killings were the result of an old grudge.

Miss Guichapa, who is being held as a material witness, admitted Boltares had taken her to Azusa and pointed out a spot of newly-spaded earth he sald was Garcla’s grave. RICKETS HELD TO FOLLOW TOO MUCH CEREAL IN DIET Scientists Revise Views on Causes, Following Experimental Feeding, And now, s great victery for the baby! For years the Bcb{ has been urged to eat more cereal in order that he might grow big and strong like daddy. Every spoonful was repre- sented as contributing just that much more toward this presumably desirable end. Now we are told that it is pos- sible to have too much of such a good thing. But let us tell the story as we have it. The children affected cam;oé rea'g anyway, so it will give them no_advantage. “We haveg become used to the idea that rickets is a vitamin deficlency condition, and _yet there are several facts which tate strongly complete acceptance of this The most important consideration is the fact that rickets &-: be &mdum experimentally by feeding wif “omm reals,” says L. Mirvish, in nun‘ Tona N "ltz:mbenmbcredm before the demonstration that rickets could be induced in puppies by & diet devoid of what we now know to be vitamin A, one theory of the eticlogy of rickets in infants attributed the dis- ease to the well known excessive carbo- hydrate, or to be more accurate, cereal, intake of the children. “E. Mellanby, Holst and Green have followed up this interesting observation, and their recent inve ations have shown even more conclusively that typical rickets can be induced in grow- ing puppies and rats by feeding with excess of cereals or by adding extracts of cereals to a diet, which does not pro- duce rickets in control animals.” ‘We may have to revise some of our ideas as to the cause of rickets.
