OLDEST ARTICLES IN WORLD Chipped Stones, Found In England, Believed to Be Most Ancient of Made Implements, According to an English antiquary, the oldest manufactured articles in the world are probably some chipped stones found on the Kentish Weald, fn England, Far buck, countless cenfurles before any attempt at civilization, men were chipping stones into tools and weapons, Knives, axes, hammers, Scrapers, spearheads, arrowheads, even awls for plercing sking, and roughly notched saws for cutting bone were made of flint or chert or obsidian—any stone that would chip to a cutting edge and hard enqugh to stand wear, Some gre climsy things, some beau- tiful In design and finish, and thelr varying workmanship Indicates far greater differences between the men who made them than exists between an Egyptian king of 1400 B, C., and an English citizen of this Solutrean “laurel leaves” dered points"—spearheads from Soul tre, in France— exquisite things, graceful In shape and finished in a manner which would be a credit to | any modern craftw Yet they made, according to some over 20,000 years ago.

Origin ‘of the Ring. In the course of a lecture on “Pre clous Stones,” Professor Gordon sald that early jewelry did not seem to Lnve been set In rings. One of the earliest examples of the use of rings in statuary was in the statues of Prometheus, who, when re- teased from bondage on the interces glon of Venus, wore a ring with a small plece of the Caucnsus In ft to show that he wae still chained to the Caucnsip. The idea of a ring being a sign of bondage has continued since those days, Bishops and doctors wore rings by right bocnuse they had signed away A WOR TE i a SL ———— ° - a a —_ I American Indians Attached Immense Importance to the Ceremony That Accompanied Its Smoking, “Pipe of Peace” among the American Indl wis a ceremony attended with great solem- nity.
