and bargains, she said.
Such substitutes for writing have maintain-
ed themselves in various parts of the world
until our own time. Many symbols of daily life
-the barber's pole. the three'balls above the
pawnshop - are related to early stages of the
development of writing. l uither develop-
ment grew out of pictures. born out of the
natural urge to imitate.
The greatest step was the invention of
phonetic writing. The Egyptians are remark-
able in having evolved it practically entirely
during the latter part of their cultural history.
Three stages of writing - ideographs.
phonographs and alphabetic symbols were
Used simultaneously In the later writing: the
Egyptians never altogether discontinued any
one method but carried the old along with the
new.
With other peoples of theediterranean,
the situation was different. h#bets were
passed front one people to another; wativing
people could build on the foundations of those
who gave. And an and on through the ages in
all the different lands until we reach the
present time.
