The Student Vagabond

Ancient civilizations remind most of us at once of Egypt and Mesopotamia, and even in America there are few who realize the extent of the culture that was developed on our own continent before the Europeans arrived. One of the most interesting of these civilizations was that of the Mayas who reached a high point in sciences and the arts while still the victims of almost incredible superstitions. It will well repay the journey to Peabody Museum to hear Professor Dixon discuss them this morning at 11 o'clock.
