S.; NOW MAN WITHOUT COUNTRY Investigation ThrwE Light on Civilizations of the Long Past Dedication of a building at the University of Chicago devoted to the investigation of early man a building which "finds do parallel in any other university, either in America or abroad" draws the Near East still nearer to the West. It Is In the East that the origins of the civilization we hare inherited are for the most part hidden; and the Oriental institute under western skies seeks now to help man in a literal sense to "orient" himself to get his bearings and see in true perspective the history of tha human race. Especially is lt to belp bridge the gap between the savage of the paleontologist and the historian's story of the people who emerge in Europe as "civilized" beings. Dr. James H. Breasted, with bis general headquarters In this build lng, has an army of diggers not alone with spades, but also with modern excavating engineering, directed by an archeological staff, on a 3,000 mile front, stretching from Luxor In Egypt northward past Sinai, through Palestine and Syria to the uplands of Anatolia, eastward and southward across Mesopotamia to Persepolis in Persia. Many other groups are making Independent research, but for the first time a single organization is able to "control and correlate" research and excavation throughout the leading early civilizations In a "single composite "construction" of course of human tha life, when for thousands of years man was advancing along a front as wide as the Lnlted States. Of special significance Is the evi dence that In this period man in Egypt began "to bear remote voices that proclaimed the utter futility of material conquest." it was then that "conscience and character broke upon the world."

Sally, being the last teacher taken on, had been the first laid off. And no other work seemed to be open to her. So, after several months when the shreds of her old fortune had been her only means of support, she had gratefully accepted employment from tha mother of one of her old friends now married and living abroad. "It may be a bit trying. Sally," Mrs. Van Arsdale had said. "Aunt Jane is a bit of a trial, and you may get awfully bored. There's a trained nurse, of course, to look after her, but 6he wants someone young and attractive as a sort of companion." So Sally went to the Adlrondacks with the Van Arsdales as Aunt Jane's It wasn't so bad.

He started out In December, 1931, cruised through the southern islands, touching at Suva, Samoa and many other points and navigating and handling his little craft single handed. At one stage of his long trip the center board of his ship rotted away. Rebell repaired that, and later In successfully repaired one of his watches. His library-learnenavigation was eminently successful. When he reached Honolulu he obtained a distressed seaman's permit He got under way again and headed for the California coast It took him 66 days to reach Los Angeles and as soon as he set foot ashore he was detained at the immigration stay tion because his permit had expired. The "distressed seaman" had spent all of his GO days at sea. To add to his distress, his boat which he had steered without damage across thousands of miles of deep water was wrecked inside the Los Angeles breakwater by the violent storm which recently lashed the western seaboard. William Slavens McNutt, the author, came to Rebell's rescue and bailed him out and the man without a country Is now temporarily living In Los Angeles, completing plans to write about his long trip, and Incidentally planning another cruise. mid-ocea- d y 00-da- This Town Is Ruled by One Family, Literally Savoy, Mass.

They plunged together Into the cold water and swam silently to the house. Sally liked him, and sensed he liked her, too. She had looked for him again the next afternoon when she went for her swim. But be hadn't been there. The quickest relief for a headache is two tablets of Bayer Aspirin. The tablet bearing the Bayer cross dissolves very rapidly and brings rapid relief. There is no known medicine that works quite like Bayer Aspirin for the awful head and face pains of neuralgia. There is nothing with quite the same effectiveness in relieving rheumatism. Today Aunt Jane had been particularly trying, and Sally had missed her swim. "I'm not going to take a nap," Aunt Jane had said. "It's such a nice day I'm Just going to stay awake and work out that new crocheted mat." "I'll cheat," said Sally to her reflection in the mirror, as she brushed her burnished hair, "I'll make him like v Bayer Aspirin does not depress the heart, does not upset the stomach, does not have any ill effect.

After dinner that night she wandered away from the other guests in quest of Jack. She found him smoking under the pine trees at the edge of the little beach. He Jumped to his feet as she came toward him. "It's you, isn't It? I was Just going up to the house." And he started to walk away toward the voices on the terrace and the lights of the house. "Well, you're not very polite," said Sally. He turned toward her suddenly and took both her hands In a strong, nervous grasp. "I came out specially to find you. Anything the matter with me?" Sally went on. "You're "Yes," said Jack sternly. too darned attractive. I'm sorry. I've tried to avoid you. But I can't help It. I knew, the minute I saw you, like a million dollars there on the float, and now, you doll yourself up so you look like a princess and follow me out here. What do you think I'm made of?" Sally plcgled in the dark. "It's two years old," she said. "Are you rich?" "No," snld Jack, gruffly. "I'm poor and I'm nobody.
