"There they live in a Mate of Communism, each tribe with a. definite territory of its own, but without a trace ot agricul- ture, and almost without culture. But some of their stone weapons and their customs indicate that valuable information may be found there upon the earlier races that inhabited Eur- ope and England.

Dr. Stockard has conducted experi- ments with alcohol upon guinea pigs Itor the last 17 years, using more than 5,000 guinea pigs in his experiments. The general conclusion to be drawn trom his exhaustive resources, he said, was that alcohol did not only not harm the guinea pigs to which it was ted regularly, but that it actual. ly benefitted their health and in- creased their lite span. The expert. ments of other scientists bear him out, Dr. Stockard said. Just " Healthy. Dr. Stockard showed lantern slides of two guinea pigs which he used for The Impression that the consump- tion ot alcohol in any quantity was injurious to health and shortened human life, he said. can partly be traced to the Insurance companies' statistics on drinkers and shimmers; in which heavy, moderate and occa- sional drinkers are all lumped to. gether. The heavy drinkers, he said. drag down the average ot the others, so that the total effect seems to indi- cate that abstainers have a. better chance ot life and health than drink- era. The alcohol consumed by a moder. ate drinker, he explained, increases the resistance of the body to disease, despite the general impression to the contrary and in one after the age of 30 experiments have shown it has no effect whatever on length ot life. Ex. cessive consumption of alcohol. the professor said, was admittedly injuri- one. But Guinea Pig Always Drunk.

He also rec-ommends its use for the aged. Mr. Brooks declared alcohol to be especially valuable in' the treatment ot the aged.

Old people, suffering from general dehility, will tind beer "soothing, nourishing and euphoric," he said.

Dr. Stockard‘i paper was one of three presented. The others were Dr. Samuel W.

Dr. Stockard closed his paper with a plea for regulation ot alcohol. so that the excess of the heavy drinkers should not deprive the moderate drinker ot alcohol.
