HERE’S MORE ABOUT EASTER ISLAND STARTS ON PAGE ONE to the name of Easter. The Spanish never made any prac. tical use of the island, and it was Visited only by explorers and scien tists until the last century, when Chile established @ penal there. NDREDS OF GIGANTIC STATURS LEFT The Island, and covering an area imately 42 square miles, had @ popu-| moved from politica it would timated at from 1,260) some of ite importance as a political natives, aa far back aa | ienue, after © Pol ynesiane—the | had been Uberaltzed. | lation last to 1,500, 1 ory goon, Ww and is the eastermont of the Poly-! nesian group—and agriculture has been the only Industry, the natives raising bananas, sugar cane, eweet potatoes, goats, fowl sheep and cattle, Ite most remarkable feature, how. ever, consisted of the prehistoric statues and other archaeological re mains fdund there, These remains presented an enigma to science no lems «perplexing than the ageold riddle of the Sphinx. There were hundreds of statues on the Island, ranging in size from three to 80 feet, but all of exactly the same type—a giant head surmounted by a mammoth crown, carved out ef volcanic rock, The features of thene’ statues were invariably the same—n jong head, with eyes close under heavy brows; a large nose, low bridged and very broad at the nostrils; pouting, the upper ip short; the lower part of the face broad and heavy; the ears long and pendant, and the whole head tipped backward at an arrogant angie. GREAT STONE HOUSES WITH MASSIVE WALLS The remarkable uniformity of these statues has convinced scientists that they must be « fairly accurate por trayal of the prehistoric Inhabitants of the tsland—and that brings out the most perplexing feature of the mystery; for the features are utterly unlike thone of any prehistoric men known to acience, This, coupled with other discover: fea on the isiand, has convinced many that Easter island must have once been the home of an extinct civilize en. In addition to the statues, die coverers have found on the istand a number of stone houses, some 100 feet in length, with walls six feet thru, built like forts, Inside these houses were tablets, incised with heire- slyphics utterly unlike those of any known ancient language, which scientists have been utter. ly incapable of deciphering, These works could not possibly have been performed by the Poly- nesian natives of the faland, for these have no written language, and, what ts more, as there is absolutely no metal on the island, the natives had no toola with which the giant stone images could have been carved, All of the statues seem to have been hewa out of rock found tn the craters of the three volcanoes on the island, Some of these statues, dozens of tons in weight, were removed several miles to platforms in other sections of the tsland, With their utter lack of engineering knowledge or imple- menta, the Polynesian natives could not have done this—which demon- strates that the original civilization of the Island must have been cen-| turtles ahead of Its successors, Another evidence of the high de- gree of clvilization which must have flourished at one time on the island ia found Im the hieroglyphica tnalde the houses-—which are now held in leading museums thruout the world, HIEROGLYPHICS SKILLFULLY DONE These hieroglyphics, while unde- clpherable, were incised with as much skill as is displayed by the modern copper engraver, and were evidently the work craftemen of the first water, They are, by the way, unique in that they must be read frem left to right and then, turning the tablet upside down, from left to right again, and #0 on. Some scientists have attempted to connect these statues and hierogly- phies with traces of the ancient Agtec and Inca civilizations, but this theory is not generally credited. By far the majority of students lean toward the belief that Kaa ter island was the last remnant of a vast continent, Strength is lent to this theory by the position of a number of the statues found on the teland. less than 40 of them appeared on the side of one of the volcanoes, with as many more erected tnaide the crater. This might indicate that & | Brookbank Hospital Window ©. 3, Kelsey, @ paving tn spector In the city engineer's de partment, waa dead Thursday, following @ leap from a second story window tn the Minor hos pital Wednesday night.

Gordon, newly elected president of the world’s W. C. T. U., predicted today. “We are rapidly steering toward temperance, and within eight years the W. C. T. U. will annihilate the Mquor traffic from the face of the earth,” she added. “Two-thirds of the nations of the world are now seriously considering prohibition, and several will vote for dry legislation before 1924." In outlining the program for dry- ing up the wordl, Miss Gordon said the schedule would be as follows: Uruguay, 1 Argentine, 1934; Chile, 1927; Austria, 1925; Denmark, 1 Germany, 1929; Great Britain, 1938; France, 1933; Japan, 1936; Bra. 1928; Africa, 1926; Mexico, 1922 Italy, 1938; Spain, 1939; China, 193: Cuba, 1940. ‘WOOD WAR STARTS AGAIN In a hearing before the council public safety committes Wednesday, retail wood dealers vigorously op- poned the petition of milimen that the ordinance prescribing 64 cubic feet as ® load of wood and 128 fect an a double load be amended to read “minimum load.” The retail men argued that the ordinance as {t now stands is suf. ficient and that it parallels satis. factory statutes in other cities. The trouble arose several weeks agoNwhen several milimen were ar rested for selling loads of wood which contained more than the amount named in the ordinance, there had been @ gigantic volcanic disturbance which had wiped out most of the continent, and thaythe survivors, in an attempt to propitt- ate the gods, had placed Images of their dead comrades at the foot of the gods’ home, That the gods were not propitinted by this act was evi- denced by the fact that most of these statues were covered feet deep with voleanio ashes. Possibly the erup: tion in which these ashes fell wiped out all that remained of the anctent civilization, Who knows? The question might have been an- swered once, But not now-—ift the island has indeed vanished Into the sea, to Join the ghost of a once mighty continent.
