The dIm • u It Y subject is great but its treatment has to be mndest. The works of pa1·va-&ilris had long been hidden; the path opened by them had long been lost. It had to be re-searched. In 1911-13 a probable line was laid to dig and diacover the Ancients' highway in the field of Polity. In theae pages that line has been deepened and widened. Aud the way of the Fathers is in sight. The author made a special study to find out what constitutional progress, if any, Ancient Pioncar \\' ork Indiana had achieved. In 1911 and 1912' some resulla of the study were published in the legal journal the c,,/catt I ltr. B E.
