The discoveries, barely hinted at in cable dispatches, are fully reported and interpreted by Dr. Osborn oris- mai proponent of the "Asia, mother or continents," hypothesis in the cur rent issue of the magazine Asia. The magazine cooperated with the Museum and the American Asiatic Association in organizing this most ambitious of all similar expeditions,. toward the fin ancing of which liberal contributions were made by J.

The hypothesis put' forward by Dr. Osborn in 1&00 and? now confirmed to his satisfaction was based on the lact that two great deposits of re mains or animals at the dawn period of mammalian life on the northern hemisphere had been found previously at wiaeiy separated polnts--the pne in x-.urope, ine otnep in the American Rockies'. f . . it '.; '. They coul not have .; originated where the remains were found, Dr. Osborn reasoned, else they would have spread westward from Europe and eastward froin the Rockies during the period of early dispersal. Hence, he held, they1 have originated at some half way- spot on the less explored side, of the globe, traveling as far as the .Rockies Jon tile one hand and Ivurope on the other, before the sun set on the lat of their line. He then drew up", a series of charts locating Asia as the dispersal center, and plot ting out with a nicety;' remarkable in view of the." expeditions' discoveries, the . spots where the first'"' centers probably were located.

Dr. Os born said of the fossil deposits: "This discovery gives the answer to one of the lour great questions which the expedition sought to solve: name ly, whether ancient Asia is the moth er of the life of Kurope to the far west, of North America to the far east. It is a kind of realization of a palcontologic Garden of liden of tho birthplace, or Asiatic homeland, from which many kinds of roptires and mammals spread 'westward and east ward. "The existence of such a center has long been a matter ofpure theory We have waited until Ili2 to verify it. This verification has come with unexpected suddenness and with a J Walter Granger, Charles P. Berkey and Frederick Morris began pros pecting, and within a few yards of camp, discovered some bones of dino saurs. This was the first discovery of giant reptiles In northern Asia. The region promised to be so in teresting that Mr. Andrews left the geologists at work and Rushed on to Turin, 132 miles south of L'rga, with other members of the party, to meet tho caravan. He accompanied the caravan to l'rga, planning to plunge deeper into the heart of Asia. But at Ursa he received, a letter from the fossil-hunter-in-chief, Granger, telling of such rich discoveries that he hur ried back. The dinosaurs, remains of which were discovered in great profusion, were found to belong to the Upper C retaceous period the very close of the Ago of Reptiles and to be i.ui. re still remain four years in which the greut expedition under Hoy Chapman Andrews will fill out the details." Mr. Andrews' report was made in a letter dated May 9 at Ursa, in uppei Mongolia. .The party had set out from Pew Ine a month before, traversing the desert by motor truck toward Turin, where they planned to meet a caravan tlori has gone' so far is the. section la- of 75 camels with supplies, which had belled "primate"" -the species of aoe been sent on ahead held by paleontologists to have been 1 Halfway across Mongolia, between the; first ancestor of man.

Other findings included fossils of rhlneceroses, immense tortoises, large cfirnivorea, crocodiles and turtles and enough others to make a Barnum weep that none such still live. These bygone animals, said Mr. Granger, bore unmistakable resembl ance to those found in Wyoming, in cluding two kinds of flesh, eating dinosaurs and a similar running fel low called the ostrich dinosaur.

That question ' was asked of several Judges of mean horses. Sam Thompson, who is director of livestock for the big show, expressed the opinion of every man asked when he unhesitat- ingly replied: "Noname." This horse is an interesting study In hoss temperament. In the stable he is as gentle as the old family driving horse that the kids used to use in days gone by before the gas wagons became the childrens' pride and joy. When treated with kind- ness old Noname Is as docile as one coulH wish. 'Hut Wait until the day comes for him to appear as horse actor in the arena. Iet him get raked a bit. with the spur, or fanned with a big hat. It isn't profane in the least to fay that at this stage of things hell breaks loose. When it comes to twisting and bucking under a haJed saddle and a yelling cowboy. Noname Is in u class by himself. He has earned this distinction by his activities all over the l.'nlted Ftatf-s ami Canada. And there is some rash repre- seated in thi- bide of the horse, too. To thiie who se th- show und think thai it costs vt-ry little to get horws. it may be enliliht- ening to pass along the informa- lion that when Nonaine came into the possession of the Ivn- dlctoti Itound-l'p association. f r Just ll.oeo in cold cash went out of th- association coffers to g' t the horse..
