FOR SALE—Good 18-months old registered Jersey bull. Phone Paul S. Albin, Rural 171. 14-2t o U.S. ASSISTS BRAZIL NAVY RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil June 16. —(UP)—The Brazilian navy is gradually being reorganized, with the assistance of a mission from the United States navy. President Bernardes is averse to spending any large sums on the navy, although Brazil has a vast coast line. With the exception of two battleships, the Brazilian navy is composed of antiquated and in part obsolete vessels. Of her ten destroyers, 8 are now in the drydocks for repairs. The president holds that Brazil cannot at present afford heavy naval expenditures and that it should make the most of the fleet it now has, gradually substituting modern ships: Brazil has only two cruisers, the best of which was armed 27 years ago.

of prehistoric homes. More than 300 kivas, or circular ceremonial chambers, already have been exposed. The explorations revealed that Pueblo Bonito was a busy viMage within a single dwelling. When inhabited, it stood four stories high, included some 800 rooms, and sheltered 1,200 or more persons. No written record or hieroglyphic inscription was left by these ancient 1 Americans. But it already is possible to piece together their life story from the evidence of the silent walls of their abandoned rooms and the scattered objects recovered from the deserted dwelling. Their daily activities, their civic organizations, their communal enterprses and their struggles against more warlike tribes can be pictured. It is evident that the Bonitans, who lived in what now is the Chaco Canyon National Monument, in northwestern New Mexico, probably had the most pretentious settlement in the southwestern United States in pre-Columbian times. With the penetration of the Pueblo Bonito ruins, the early history of America has begun to attract world interest—an interest being augmented with the sending of a National Geographic Society Expedition to uncover the great mound of Cuicuilco in the Valley of Mexico, which may be 8,000 years old.
