NEW BRITAI OLD PIPE BOWLS | Woman Wallngiord [ IKE PARIS BUT Practice of Smoking May B Hundreds of Years 0ld Cambridge, Mass, Dec. 15 0P~ Questions whether tobacco smoking originated by archeological finds 1.0W en route fgrom Africa to Fax 10dy museum of Harvard. The smoking riddle and other s crets of equatorial Africa in the cen turies preceding the modern whit man's arrival there are contained ir materials excavated during 1927 and 1928 by a Harvard expedition head ed by Frederick R. Wulsin of th Harvard museum. Mr. W returned ahead of the archeologic finds. The expedition was sponsored by the bureau of international re rel! of the Laura Spelman Ro fund, and consisted of Frederi n Wulsin, Patrick T. L. Putnam an Milton Katz. Its purposes saarch for archeological materi the Sudan which might throw light on the movement of populations thiére, and the study of pygmics. students of the pygmy Africa. Clay obfects were found niay have been pipe bowls were far down in a mound wh appeared to be hundred years old. The bowls will be subjected to| chemical analysis for possible traces | of tobacco, hemp or perfume as the most likely mixtures which | have been smoked in them. . Waulsin says that identification of tobacco smioking would be unexpeet- o4, as the bowls apepar to antedate fhe. discovery of America. Several village sites were ex vated. The most pretentious w Goulfil, in French Africa. Tn adjacent to a modern town, dicated four villages had existe cach of the last three on the of its predecssor. Mr. Wulsin found present-day Ar- rica growing up socially. His ex- vedition had a N whos: father had been a c It had also. & - Mohammedan g One night Mr. Wulsin heard the cook and ‘the Mohammedan arguing in French, each attempting to prove that the other was descended from a:eapnibal, . while his own family tree had no such branch. A servant problem has been cre- ated, at least for archeologists, by the automobile, Mr. Wulsin said Fifteen years ago, on a previous oxpedition that traveled on foot, he' found it easy to hire help for all the campwork. This time, with lim- | oA eariir s Cvaradltr ot truck fixing the amount of help, the archeologists had to do most of their own packing.

The most poplar restaurant in the “Quarter” is run by an American named Wilson, and corned beef hash with poached ¢gg and ham and eggs form the most called-for items of his daily bill of fare, Purely French restaurants have added American dishes, to the best of their ability, to their menus to satisfy the home-cooking hunger of Montparnasse's expariates. The great majority of American homes in Paris are furnished with articles of purely French origin. but | in most of them there fs a touch of the -other-side-of-the-water, if only in the arrangement of a chair or a table. Their owners appreciate the Irench taste and French culture, but merely graft them on, as it were, to the taste and culture of their home- To the Frenchman, the American’s taste and food, and in great measure his mode of living, is a never-cea ing source of wonder. The American resident in France, on the ther hand, finds little trouble in adapting to his own life what he considers the best elements in French living. He likes French food, when he can add to it corn on the cob and other western delicaies, and he likes Irench wines. At least two Ameri- cans in Paris have achieved note even among their French colleagues by their authoritative knowledge of bouquets and vintages.
