AN UNKNOWN RACE Traditions of the Hohokam, Who War the First Americans. In the beginning the Hohokam dwelt In the laud. They were the Grst Amer icansbefore the pilgrim fathers, be fore the Spaniards, before the Indians. They were the unknown people who lived in the United States so Ions ago that their name is utterly lost. In the southwest old tribes of Indians like the Zunis and Xavajos know nothing of them save by vaguest tradition. The Pi mas and Papagos of southern Arizona, who occupy part of the land that once was theirs, know that an other race possessed the country long ago. More they cannot tell. They and their fathers for hundreds of years have seen what we see the scanty remnants of ancient villages. For the inhabitants of the villages they have no name except the Iloho kam that is, the "unknown." The modern archaeologist describes the implements and pottery of the Hohokam. He cannot do much more, for their houses nrc laid low. Except in a few places, such as the rains of Casa Grande, near the Gila river, the very walls have vanished. Casa Grande itself may lie the work of a people later than the main lody of the Hohokam. AVe can never know the whole story. Yet little by little we may learn its chief facts. Arizona and the adjacent regions are full of ruins unknown to scientists and even to the people who live within a mile of them. They are so nearly obliterat ed that there seems at first sight little to repay study. Archaeology begins the task of recon structing the past. Geography must finish it. Modern geography enables us to determine the mode of life which must prevail, especially among primi tive peoples, under given conditions of physical environment. If we can cor rectly picture the geographic environ ment of the nohokam we may leani much of the history of our earliest fel low countrymen.-EHsworth nuntlng ton in Harper's Magazine.

Epictetus. The Courage of Life. The two virtues that help us along most in life are trust and courage. Apart from the tragedies invited by sin and violence and self indulgence, a large part of our trouble comes from anxiety, distrust, apprehension. It was not all frivolity that dictated the an swer of a youag girl who. lelng urged to prepare herself for a profession oi a definite work, responded: "I'm not going to look ahead and worry. I can do a lot of useful things. I can mend, and make salad, and amuse children and be patient and economical, and help people to enjoy themselves, and I don't believe nice girls starve." Cour age and faith are always assets. Even if life goes back upon them and fails to come up to exi)eetations the prac tice of these virtues is just that much to the good, and we have at least not lived in the evil moment until it ar rived.
