Huge Mastodon Tooth and Rhinoceros Bones Found in Clark County
Fossils Presented to Curator Martin on Week-End Trip Through West
2017
"That tooth was worth the entire trip down there," is the way H. T. Martin, curator and paleontologist at Dynec museum, summited up the results of a week-end excursion into Clark县, Kansas, in which he recommended Professor Ninigering of Mphemer College.
The toothed that of a large musetoon said Mr. Madden. It was found and presented to the University of Kansas museums by Ivan R. Barket, A. R. '10, A. M, '11, a practicing physician in A.M.D., Kan.
The **gaint** *tooth*, measuring eight and one half inches in length, and three and a fourth inches in width, beeps beside it by the layman the enormity of his possession. Mr. Martin estimates the life of the mandatum to have been 200 years or more from the extent of the wear of the mandium. He added that it had been around the birthhood of 1,500 centuries since this brass roamed over the plains of Kansas.
"We will be guided by what the scouts find and report," said Mr. Martin referring to future activities. "It was a profitable trip to make. I had been anxious to know what opportunities there were for collecting, and I was very well pleased with the find of the rhinoceros, and particularly with the tooth of the mastodon, which is one not now in the museum. It is of one of the barren types, a side shoe of the animal of the family," he explained.
The complete skull of a rhinoceros having a full set of teeth was also presented to the University by its finder, L. Elmo Johnson, a high school student and Boy Scout of Aishand. The skull is of the miocene period as is the tooth and they are of the same average age. Quite a number of skulls have been perished at this place, which is about 12 miles from Aishand.
They also obtained a few bones of a small deer, about the size of a sheep. Evidences were discovered of fossilized one-tied horses. In addition to these discoveries belonging to the moose period they went into the creatine formation exposed during molting. The vertebrate, quite a number of pleiosaur vertebrae and some "paddle" bones.

Six months to make.
More than 100,000 cattle used.
Cost exceeded $500,000.
Players and technicians travelled over 15,000 miles by train and horseback to procure the scenes.
Scenes taken in eight states in two countries.
These are the principal statistic facts of "Sundown," the gigantic and impressive epic of the West which is often described as a kind of Thunder for a day engagement.
A page from current history, of which only those in the great West seem to be aware, the First National picture tells the story of a tremendous migration which has been going on during the last few decades. Forced from the ranges by the steady encroachment of the home-sleeder and the small farmer, the lake became more forced south into the untitled desert country of the Southwest and into Mexico.
Today the Northern States ... Mexico are the big cattle raising areas of the Western Hemisphere. The ranch owners, for the most part are Americans, the sons and grand-sons of the pioneers who wrested the West a generation or so ago from the Indians.
On this pathetic phase of modern history "Sundown" was written. Earl Hudson, supervisor of the First
National production, is the author of the story and in presenting the stirring epic to the server he has produced a soul-impiring drama of reality that cannot help but arouse the emotions of the most blase.
The picture in itself is fact rather than fiction, for many of the scenes were taken in Atranta and New Mexico on the trail during the movement of several thousand head of cattle from pastures near the edge of the Grand Canyon to new grazing land along the border.
Contrating the heartaches of the ranch families who are forced to seek pastures new are the heartaches **b** the homeowners—forced from the land by the neighboring spaces and existence on the plains. The clashing of these two factions—entirely different, yet both essentially American—in the corner stone has been built the powerhouse romantic tale of "Sundown." -Mvp.

The Thrilling Story of the Passing of The Cattle Kings
First National Pictures, Inc. presents
Theodore Roosevelt, in speaking of the historic passage of the powerful cattle barons from the west, said:
“This thing is bigger than any man or group of men. You could stretch your cowboys from Mexico to Canada, and bank them a mile-deep—but the humanity’s advances on the road to civilization.”
That is the theme of the tremendous story, "Sundown." It is the biggest theme conceived in the period and it is the most beautiful theme. Its nature, love and amazing adventure,
