cording to Dr. Anna Y. Reed, pro
fessor of Personnel Administration at
Washington—IThe age old search
for the mysteries of Atlantis, has en
gaged the sympathy of Ambassador
Charles G. Dawes, who has employed
Prof. Charles Upson Clark, of Yale
University, to go to the library of
the Vatican, in Rome, to seek the
key to the Mayan mysteries.
The legend of Atlantis, much of
which may be true, has it that it
was a great continent of peaceful
ness, industry and wealth, whose
people, unpurged by travail, turned
to sin for excitement.

the sun was hidden by black clouds
and the earth trembled, and a great
wave of the sea submerged Atlantis
vmd its people.

inscribed with hieroglyphics no man
can read, although the Mexican and
Guatamalan governments, the Carne

archeologists have labored for decades
to find the key to their mysteries.

she said, “and of course, she should,
then she ought to go to a co-ed
school where she will be able to meet
many men. In such an institution she
will meet all types of men, and
should learn just which type she can
best get along with. Then, whether
or not she marries a college mate,
she will have gained the experience
necessary to her future enjoyment of
life.”
Outside of college, the University
professor said, a girl meets men only
at social functions, and sees him at
his best. At college the two find out
more about each other than they
could in any other surroundings.
“By being a man’s classmate,”
she said, “a girl can observe him
when he doesn’t know he is being ob
served. She can learn his bad quali
ties as well as his good ones.”
