Near View of .the Great Pyramid.
(Prepared by the National Geographic So
ciety, Washington. D. C.)
Stanley journeyed thousands of miles
to lny bnrc tho secrets of Africa to
the world; but In the northenstern
corner of the same continent even
more thrilling exploration hits been In
progress during the past few decades
through n relatively few feet of sand.
The excavators who with pick and
shovel have been bringing to light the
details of Egypt's ancient civilization
and the everyday life of her people,
where before only the barest outline
of tho nation's history wns, available,
are as truly discoverers of unknown
civilizations as far-faring Marco Polos
or PIzarros.
For a long time Egypt was to the
rest of the world little more than n
sea of sand with a few dominant mon
uments the pyramids, the Sphinx, the
colossi of "Momnon" to point to her
past greatness. Holies of various dy
nasties exlfted side by side, their re
lations often unknown.
The names of many kings and some
of their noblest exploits were known,
but there was general ignorance in re
gard to tho less exalted Egyptians, to
the activities that made up tho life of
this mysterious nation beside the Nile
four and perhaps five and six or more
thousands of years ago. Oravo rob
bers, whose activities extend hack Into
the days long before tho Ptolomles,
had rilled many tombs and so made
much of the early scientific, excava
tions barren of results. And the early
excavation of Egyptologists was itself
a careless procedure aiming at the big
goals and destroying and burying
many small objects of incalculable
value In tho Indications they might
have given of manners nnd customs.
Recent exploration In Egypt has
been a vastly different matter. Modern
efficiency methods havo been adapted
to the delving for the burled secrets
of the ancients, nnd now every cubic
foot of sand about a promising site Is
combed or actually sifted that no
broken fragment of pottery, scrap of
papyrus, or jeweled bauble mny es
cape detection. In early days the
most common method of disposing of
tho removed sand and debris was by
means of basket brigades which
dumped their loads nearby. Now light
tramways are used and care' Is taken
to haul the discarded materlnl to a
point where It Is definitely known that
nothing of vnluo will be covered.
Where formerly a "find" was a "find"
nnd was assembled with all others,
now any object., partially uncovered Is
photographed In plnce frequently as
the sand Is removed, so that no pos
sible significance of Its position or re
lation to other objects will be over
looked; nnd before It is stored It Is
carefully tagged, numbered and card
indexed. Getting Real Picture of Ancient Life.
These painstaking methods have
fully justified themselves. Instead of
having a confused mass of facts, ninny
of them most Interesting in them
selves, but often perplexing, we nre
getting by degrees a complete, intel
ligible picture of Egyptlnn life over a
period of thousand of years. Seem
ingly unimportant things help grently
to fill In the picture. Ono would hard
ly make the mistake of picturing the
old Egyptlnns scratching matches to
light the kitchen fire, but there wns
for long no true picture to tnke tho
place of fancy. None of tho discovered
hieroglyphics showed the making of
fire, and it appeared to be entirely
without religious significance. In re
cent years, however, ono of tho new
school of excavators sifted from the
sand n well-preserved fire-bow and
drill nnd even a board with burnt
holes, and the problem was solved.
Temporary towns besides the sites
of grent engineering projects nre no
new thing Jn the world. Cities for la
borers were constructed for use while
some of the pyramids woro under
construction. Ono such town lins been
completely uncovered nnd gives n
cross-section of life under such condi
tions more than -1,000 years ago. Tho
town wns congested and had sections
like the slums of today with the
crowded dwellings opening on narrow
alleys. There were some sepnrate
dwellings nnd some bnrrack-like struc
tures presumably for unmarried work
ers. But even In the most humble
houses evidences were found that their
occupants lived on a higher plane than
might have been supposed. Various
manuscripts were found Including n
medical treatise and several wills. And
In the sepnrate dwellings were found
such toys ns tops and dolls and tiny
bonts to show that, the pastimes of
children of thnt remote time were not
vastly different from those of today.
At the very border lino between the
pre-hlstorlc and the historic In Egypt,
civilization, it tins been found, had
renched a considerable degree of de
velopment. The tombs of the first
Egyptian kings, who lived unywhere
from 5,000 to 7,000 yenrs ago, are
such as no barbarians could linve
erected n fact which pushes the be
ginning of Egyptian civilization into a
n very dim past indeed. Tills wns be
fore tho days of pyramid building
when the tombs were underground
structures.
Preserved In the Tombs.
The furniture of this distant period
wns by no means crude as one might
assume it would have been. There
were ebony chests skillfully Inlaid
with Ivory, stools with Ivory legs
carved like the legs of bulls, vessels
cut from njabnster and ewers of cop
per wrought with the cunning that
only highly skilled craftsmen could
have possessed. Daintily fashioned
bracelets on the withered arms of the
mummy of Egypt's first known queen
ndd further to the record of the prog
ress In tho arts which ETgypt had at
talned when we catch our first glimpse
of It down tho nges.
And there Is a pretty little plcturo
of the fnmlly relations of this nnclent
society. Besides the tomb of the first
Egyptian king nt Abydos Is thnt of
his daughter, and carved on her tomb
the pet name by which her fnther
know her "Sweetheart."
Even nt that early date tho court
was socially highly organized.
Womanhood wns sincerely respect
ed In ancient Egypt and especially
was this true of the mothers. What
might be called Egypt's substitute for.
the fifth commandment Ignored the
fnther. It was an Injunction: "Never
forget what thy mother hnth done for
thee. She bare thee nnd nourished
thee In all manner of ways. If thou
forgettest her, she might blame thee;
she might lift up her hands to God.
nnd lie would hear her complnlnt."
In many families It was tho custom
for titles and property to pass not to
tho eldest son but to the son of the
eldest daughter. There was no "moth-er-in-lnw
joke" In Egypt. To the mind
of the Egyptian It wns the natural
thing thnt his wife's relations should
tnke a deeper Interest In his affairs
than his blood relations.
Much of the ability of those who
live today to look Into the past of
Egypt, to see something of Its flesh-find-blood
life, nnd to understand
somewhat of the Joys nnd sorrows of
Its people, must bo ascribed to tho
preserving powers of the desert air
of thnt sandy Innd. Tho perfect con
dition of some of tho objects recovered
from tombs is mnrvelous. Ono of tho
best examples of this was tho tomb
of the noble pnrents of tho great
Queen Tyl. The discoverer of tho
large airy chamber thnt wns 'provided
as n homo for these Important per
sonnges declared thnt It seemed the
room might havo been shut up only n
few weeks before. Benutlfully carved
nnd lnlnld armchnlrs stood nbout, on
them down-stuffed cushions thnt
could have been sat upon without In
jury. In another part of the room
were "twin beds" perfectly preserved.
The most amazing discovery of all
was thnt of a jnr of honey, a,!100 years
old. still a fluid nnd still having its
recognizable odor. 1

make for good government.

town. "If I hnve to I'm going to cnll
on the American Legion to turn out

"We'll get this cleansing Job done, and
done right."
Oles places n great deal of confi

them In the departments of the city
government nnd says thnt their work Is
satisfactory. "The boys seem to have
lost that restless feeling and nre, If
anything, more noxious to perform
their full duty than men who never
served," he asserts.
PICTURES OF THE WORLD WAR
Fifty Photographers on Job, but Views
of Hardest Fighting Do Not
Tell the Story.
During the Civil war photography
was a new art. Only one man was on
the Job Brady. If Brndy happened
to be around when a battle was fought
the tmitle would be photographed
otherwise not. But photography dur
ing the recent wnr was no such hit-mid-mist,
proposition. How the World
war was caught on negatives Is told
In an article In a recent number of the
American Legion Weekly.
The very first ship that went over
carrying General Pershing also carried
n movie man. And from that time not
a single Important engagement went
iiiisiiapped." When our army wns nt
the height of Its operation It had 50
photographers. And for every photog
rapher in the field wehad three men
In the labpratory rendy to push our
negatives through.'
Although the photographs extant af
ford a remarkable history, one of the
disappointments hns been thnt even
the best of tho battle pictures do not
show the real danger because most of
tho hard fighting was done at dawn
before the light was good enough.
During the whole wnr thore waH never

fighting by the American troops. Tho
Italian nrmy posed some pictures, but
this wns never allowed by American
jenernls.
