To the archeologists who are spending years of their lives uncovering the facts concern- ing an almost forgotten race, we wish to dedicate this edition of the Orange Blossom. Through their efforts, the long story of romance and intrigue, which has lain enveloped in the mysterious past, is coming to light. This is not being brought about by careless and hasty vandalism, but through time and efort of the type which characterizes other fields of science. The ultimate outcome of such worthy endeavour will bring a better understanding of the past to the people of the United States. As the ancients of Europe slowly progressed, so did man in America, but at a later date, which has not yet been fully established. Ten ,thousand years ago the red man, scantily clad in garments made from skins, stalked a species of horse now extinct. With his atlatl, or dart thrower, he protected' himself against beast and enemy. l T IOHNS HARRINGTON w X T fa I. T . ,. X lvl if L JV l xt N J' X , s. L by XJ! Nw , 3 n v 1' a . 7 x M O ,if
