his scoutmaster, right tackle on the
'Varsity team, was tearing up one of
theabest forward passes that the Shef-
field team had been practicing in sec-
ret for weeks. It was the big cham-
pionship game„between Rockledge and
Sheffield.
"It's Easton's last: year at college.
I -do hope they win the championships"
Ruth Adams her blue eyes dancing,
dark hair waving in the wind, leaned
forward eagerly waving the red and
blue of Rockledge.
The Rockledge football bowl was.
crowded to overflowing, a sea ,of wild-
ly enthusiastic partisans of the con-
tending teams, for this was the last
and great game of the season: ' Tho.
star player• and right tackle of the
Rockledge line-up, the hero of the day
was this same Easton Evans.: Easton
was not only the hero of the college
but of the: prep ••school as well, for he
was the comrade and pal of the ,boy
scouts.
I had ducked the assignment of my
newspaper,: "The Star," to report the;
Mg game, preferring to join the box
"party, my close friend CraigKenned'y,
the scientific detective, uncle of Ker;
and Ruth; was giving to a'numbeaof

was difficult to say whether he out-
ranked :Ruth, who was the image of
Craig's sister, Carolie. { Then, too,
Craig had arranged this in a'sense es
a tribute to Easton Evans, this gath-
ering
athering together of some friends.
The fact of the`matter was -that to
Craig this was more than a champion-
ship football game. None better than
Craig knew the qualities and worth o
Easton Evans. The . friendshipd
arisen through Craig's appreciation
of. what Easton was doing for Kenin
the scouts. It had deepened when
Craig had discovered in -Evans inven-
tive genius along

gavepromise of another Marconi or
DeFbrest.
Many a night the two had spent
together .experimenting, tryingout
some of Easton's latest radio medals,
glorious nights they had seemed to
Ken and myself, for I was. as big
as the bey over radio. Easton had
built for-. himself what he called his
Radio Shack '.on the placid shore of
Rockledge Inlet and there it was that
taking advantageof Craig's radio
know -edge as a real font of' inspira-
tion, Easton had developed a deep
understanding and creative genius.
Kennedy's keen, subtle mind, his terse
unfailing conclusions when Easton's
scientific doubts 5nd hesitations need-
ed encouragement; his uncanny'logi-
cal inductions :,from a mete speck of
a scientifie•premise had frequently ' led
Easton's alert brain to the correct
solution of many complicated radio
problems. Thus between the two had
grown up a true friendship and Craig
had been in a sense the elder brother
of both the older and younger boy.

8ecrett of Science. '>i+
By David Dietz. '
The reptiles, it will be remembered,
were over-speeialized. Hence when, a
vast upheaval' of the Land changed con-
ditions they
on-ditionssthey couldn't hang ontotheir
supremacy:. i
The.little mammals now came into
their own and began to grow and de-
velop and take over the mastery of the
world.
This marks the beglnning of the Age
of Mammals or the Cenozoic -Era, : as
the geologist calls it. That means
the era of recent•lite.
The next period is called the Oligo-
eerie. ,Elevation of the land due to
,movements of the earth crust con-
tinued and, the grazing herds , were
able to spread over greater areas.
The third period, weir the Miocene.
In this the mammals really came into
their own. '
For the first:time ,now, -we find the
elephant with hie trunk.. There are
also a -great variety .of camels,lncled
ling one which has been named the
giraffe camel.. It was a sort of camel
with e<long-necklike the gir°a'ffe. --
Mammals now began to '•conquer
every corner' of the earth. There were
flying bats, 'burrowing moles, primitive
doge, some as big as bears, and the
first oats.
But noon life began -to get hard
again.
There carne the YPliocene Period
which Professor Richard Swanniull of
Yale University has called the "period
of great unrest," -
, Weaker stocks were pushed, to the
wall In the struggle for existence. The
"missing link," the, common ancestor
of man and the present-day apes•, is
supposed to have lived at this time,
Then cams a great ice age. Geolo-
glats call it the Pleistocene Period.
When this age ended, man was tate
dominant creature upon the earth.
That :period ended 25,000 years ago
and from that time on the most im-
portant creature upon the earth hal
been man.
The Aga of Mammals is believed to
have started 40,000,000 years ago and
lasted until about 25,000 years ago,
when man became the dominant crea-
ture upon. the earth -and the so-called
Age of Reason began.
• We present-day people would have
felt more at home at the beginning of
the ,Age of Mammals than at any pre.
.vious time. For at this point, the
world began to take on an appearance'
such as we are familiar with.
As in the case of ethylene eras, the
geologist dividesthisone into various
periods. -
The first is the Eocene. In this
period the earth was covered with
greatmeadowlands such as we know
today and the small archaic. mammals,
which first appeared at the close of
the Age of Reptiles were supplanted -by
tuore modernized grazing ones.
During this intermission a boy of
fifteen or thereabouts entered the box,
He spoke fora moment to Professor
Verlo. I knew him. This was Hank
Hawkins, son of a"banker, whose par-
ents were neglecting him shamefully,
the father submerged in business, the
mother's `time taken up by her activi-
ties in "society.' I knew Hank as a
member of the "Flying. Eagles" patrol
of which 'Keu Adams was patrol. lead-
ed. Ken had told .me he had recently
had to suspend Hank from sundry
patrol activties by way of discipline.
Hank was about to .leave the box when
Ken caught sight *of him and called
him over. I8 somewhat of ahang-dog
manner Hank answered the summons
and awkwardly gave the scout salute
to. hispatrol leader, Ken.
"Were going to have a meeting to-
morrow at the ..Eagles' Nest" said
Ken. "Scoutmaster Evans -will give
us a talk on radio. I expect you."
With uneasily shifting eyes, Bank
said he would attend the meeting,
then, as the• second half was about to
start, he sidled -his way out of the

It" was therefore with . unalloyed
happiness that Craig and I saw the
enthusiasm that greeted Easton. -Ile
was even genuinely regarded as a
sportsman by his opponents, Such was
my regard for him that I felt it slid
theme aa much credit as it did him.
Also I noted the slight twinkle in
Craig's eyes: as he caught the eager
flush on the cheek of his niece, Ruth.
Deep in his heart Kennedy ihadtking
sensed the growing attachment
tween Ruth and Easton and had look-
ed' on it with more than a secret favor.
With us, besides Ken and Ruth,
were Ken's scout churn, little Dick
Gerard, of the sante age as Ken, and
Dick's sister, Vire. Gerard,about the
age of Ruth. Next toVira 'and "-as
deeply interested in her as Eaiton
was in Ruth, was young Glenn. Buck-
ley, in the same class and the same
fraternity aa, Easton. The romance
of Glenn and Visa had gone further.
They were engaged. '

like the first. No one could say, if he

period.
Then came a succession of breaks
in the game that favored Sheffield.
It began by their running back of a
punt as the last quarter was drawing
to a close. • Through a broken field,
Hart, of. Sheffield wormed his way
until the ball stood t.n the forty-five
yard line. --
Sheffield made its ,first down, just
when it counted. Thirty-five yards
to go—to victory. On the next try
Rockledge held for the first two
downs. .Easton was working. He
was a tower oaf strength. It was evi-
dent that if Sheffield was to win they
must take a big chance,

sailed over the heads of the team
and dropped into the arms- of .the

Teaching Music. -,
In former days, music study was
generally •-conceived to be a deadly
serious business. The ability to play
"pieces" on the piano or violin was a
sort of fetish to which countless thou*
ands of unlucky youngsters were uteri.
Jibed. It makes ono groan -to think of
the tons of sheet music worn to •tat-
tare, the miles of,sca!les traversed and
the years. of "practising" wasted,in the
effort to teach the previous generation
of children—without .read musical ap

out a piece or two when company
came.to call. This sort of mechanical

a loathing for to piano -that he never

he really has talent, It hampers his
original development and may per.
manently Injure his 'ability.
Nowadays we have' come to realize,'
however... the vital importance of
stimulating the musdoal ambition In
children by surrounding them from
babyhood with good music, as a foun-
dation for- musical training. If you
cannot, make music yourself, .by all
means get a player -piano or a phono-
graph, and as many fine rolle or re-
cords as you can afford.. Start with
the lighter classics, and as the child's
taste develops, progress to the immor-
tal.mule of Beethoven, Schubert. Schu-
mann, Chopin, Liszt, Mendetseohn,
Wagner and. other great masters. Any
good music dealer can help you to`
make a wise selection. The child who
learns to love -. such muelo has the
strongest 'incentive to musical study

As the "draughts", caused by moun-

goal posts—and.sat on it, smiling!
There was'; just time to kick the
goal:' Seven to nothing!
The students were -dancing up and
down, swarming on the field, :.doing
the famous'snake dance. Ken'also
swarmed over the fence, tossed his
cap over the goal posts in the delirium
of victory as, the team carried' East
Evans -off the field an' their shoulders.
Almost speechless, between laughter
and, tears, Ruth turned from- to
Professor-Verio, then grasped Vire
by, -both hands as she aimpst' kissed
"Viral Tonight! :Our new super-
heterodyne' 'A -dinner and a dance
For' Easton! Wasn't' it GREAT?"
(To. be continued.)

"Yes, we have the men who sell pen-

Music in the . Home. -.:
It is In the .home that good or bad
music is formed. Musically speaking
homes may be divided tato'ihree claiss-
M this
First is the' mustcless home, ;here
there is no musical 'instrument, no
sound ,of happy song. In- euch a home
musical in9'tincts die"Sor lack Of food:
No one would dream of 'starving -a
child's color by forcing,him to -gaze all
ley at utterly blank white wake. The
Home without color and devoid of Pic-
tures is unknown blit the home with-
out music still persists among' us.
.Then there Is the- musically unedu-
cated hhome:.- Here there may be sev
eral,instrtiutents,-hut the music played
Is usually trashy and the singing is of
tine sort Popular in vaudeville— A child
roared in such a ,home will grow up
With no .knowledge or, love of music.
Popular music'need not be totally fore-
sworn, but see to it that your children
hear in their home at least soma really
tine, noble music to refine and ennoble
their spirits ` -
-Last, and unfortunately least num-
erous, is the truly musical home,
where good }music is. recognised to bo.
not merely a luxury, but 'a necessity,
Wier the: child's spirit Is fed with
good music as his: body is nourished
With good food and his mind with good
books.
