When trampled by feet of the hurrying throngv It isn't a subject for music or song. For even as downward it airily flutters, It mucks up the streets and it chokes up the gutters, And "Darn all this snow!" the pedestrian mutters. The tempers of drivers wreeks, It slides off the roofs down the passer-bys' necks, It knows no distinction of age or of sex. It overflows rubbers and soaks through galoshes, It melts, and clear over the curbstone it washes, OiTfurs and on gowns of the women it galoshes. The beautiful snow! On the city it steals, It causes the skidding of automobiles, And makes you get out and put chains on the wheels.

It swiftly grows dirty and sloppy to view, It harbors bacilli of colds and the flu, Till half of the populace sneezes, "A-ehoo!" The beautiful snow! In the country so, But here in the city we greet it with woe, The far, far from beautiful "Beautiful Snow!" -i A new design, goes into a 43-inch space.

There below are he spots stained by our evil, and our fear. But as we look a glow of sunlight breaks upon the past and in the sunshine is a soft rain, falling from heaven. It washes away the stain, and from the purity of the upper sky a voice seems to descend and enter our sobered hearts. "My child, go forward, abiding in faith, hope and love, for lo.

TREES HELP OUTLINE AMERICAN niSTORY. Living trees and cut timbers may become the mute calendars of much of the 'undated pre-Columbian history of North America, the result of a new means of time determination to be first applied to the study, of the Chaco Canyon ruins, explored by the National Geographic Society. Of the accomplished people who built the remarkable dwellings in northwestern New Mexico, developed a relatively high civilization and left traces of mar velous engineering feats and exquisite art objects it has been said regretfully they'had no calendars such as the elaborate time-keeping devices, of the Mayas of Central America. It seems they had, but did -not know it. Recent study of tree growth shows that trees not.

only register the passing year by their rings; -but the contour, thickness, and conformation of these rings indicate climatic. changes from year to year. Moreover these changes are cyclic. Have Story to Tell. "Oh, that they could tell their story -many a nature lover has exclaimed as he gazed at some tree patriarch which had outlived many generations of 1 human beings.

All along the trees could tell their story; but mankind is just learning to read it. Dr. A. E. Douglas of the University of Arizona and the Carnegie Institution -has developed a method which science' now recognizes as a trustworthy process of reading tree records of time 'and climate.

Despite the remarkable Accomplishments of ther National Geographic Society's expeditions to Pueblo Bonito (Beautiful Village) of Chaco Canyon, the leader, Neil M. Judd admits that no evidence has been found to give a satisfactory answer to the question most often asked, "How old is the ruin?" Canyon Was Human Beehive. Was it 800 or 1J200 A.D.; or even longer ago that, looking down from sheer canyon cliffs the Wan- A VAt tIVA VX I1IV giant Pueblo Bonito apartment house (to mention only one) and their elders at work on their garden plots of sauash, corn- and Or fashioning some of the beautiful pottery or tiny ornaments which resemble earrings of 1922 Or, worshiping with elaborate nt naj in.itba -V Of course there 'are no thousand-year-old trees among the pine and juniners of New Mexico or Arizona. The oldest ones yet found are from 400 to 500 years old. The question then arises: 'How bridge the gap 'between these trees and the span of years repre- Isented by the timbers used in the roof supports of Donito's excellent masonry? Therein lies the romance of the forthcoming expeditions for which the National Geographic Society has just made a grant of $2,500 a for three years.

The quest has all the mystery of a detective story, the intrigue of a Baconian cipher, -yet its working out will furnish valuable fact as as mental enjoyment, i Detective Methods in History Study. Briefly, the method of study contemplates getting cross sections of the oldest living trees, then obtaining from other pueblos, of more recent supposed date, timbers which overlap the newly-cut trees in time period, then working ever backward with older and older specimens until those are found which correspond, in their cyclic indications, to those of the Chaco Canvon Pueblos. Walpi and Oraibi, in Arizona, and Zuni and Acoma in New Mexico, the last mentioned being the oldest continuously occupied pueblo in thfi southwest, will be Jn an effort to patch together tree sections, which will carry the forest almanac back to dating distance of the far more elaborate Chaco Canyon A second line of study will. concern, itself with a study of buried stumps near Arizona, and other, stumps farther west in recently washed-out valleys.
