said. "Wit decidedly a staple life

lure holds sway, and she goes on an-
other expedition.

before there were trains there. I
camped on the drowns and in the
panes of the Rockieil, 1 grew inter-
ested in the wild life and began to
study it at first hand. It was only a
step from that to wondering about
the people who had lived in thaw
regions and that led me into research
concerning our early civilization.
Theta I wanted to know about other
countrien, their people, their begle-
nings--all those fascinating halt
glimpsed mysteries that we are slowly
fathoming. And so --1 went." It
sounds so simple as Miss Laid. tells
It. '
"Once you get the fever it gets Tim -

wanted to see another. When I had
straightened out one question in my
mind I found a dozen others that had
to be answered. When 1 took up a
subject it led Itle to another related
to it and that took me on to still M-
other, and so you nnd that you are
never done. The more you learn the
more you want to know, and no mat-
ter how much you gather there are
still untouched fields.
-"The thing that arouses my inter-
est most. 1 -believe, la the puzzle we
are trying to solve of the relationship
between early civilizations. For in-
stance, we have always felt that Crete
had a distinctly original cleilizatiun,
but in Mexico I was present when
they eze,avated relics of a people long
before the Aztecs or the Toltecs and
the tots, the utensils, the symbols of
decoratiOn and the weapons were al-
most, identical with those of anctent
Crete. That's a riddle for you, isn't
it?
"Of course, when you study people
you must study their religion, too,
ancYseme amazing things are being
discovered in that direction, because
what we have insisted on calling al-
legories or imaginative Writings are
being proved actualities."
Asked for an opinion on present
day matters, Miss Laut revealed hor-
se( a stout champion of youth, its
actions and reactions. "I admire its
spirit," she sald. of challenging her-
editary or handed down knowledge,
and its determination to Lind out and
do things for itself. it's foolish .for
older people to constitute themselves
a mourning group. When a chicken
chips its way through the shell, you
know, it's hard on the chicken, but
Ms fatal to the shell."
