SEPARATED MILK IN

Rank W ith the Best
About two thousand years ago,
writes S. G. Morley, In the Mentor
Magazine, while the peoples of north
western Europe were living In a state
t>f utmost barbarism, there was slowly
flowering In the New world the most
brilliant civilization of ancient Amer
ica—namely, the Maya of southern
Mexico and northern Guatemala. From
a cultural point of view the Maya
were the Greeks of the New world.
1 In many spheres of human activity
these Maya excelled, almost beyond
believing, In architecture, sculpture,
and painting; in ceramics, stone and
feather mosaics, and the lapidary art,
in astronomy, history, and chronology.
In this last-mentioned field their at
tainments were so remarkable that It
may be claimed that no people of the
Old world at that time—2,000 years
ago—had worked out a system of
chronology anywhere approaching that
of the Maya, not only In accuracy of
results, but also In simplicity of use.
This spectacular progress the Maya
accomplished without man’s two great
est aids to civilization in the Old
world—namely, beasts of burden and
tools of metal. When It Is considered
that they had no beasts of burden, no
horses, asses, oxen, camels, or ele
phants to carry for them, nor tools of
