SOUTH AMERICAS CHICAGO.
The Phenomenal Growth and Progress OF
the City of Buenos Ayres.

The Phenomenal Growth and Progress OF
the City of Buenos Ayres.
This is Chicago reduced to southern
latitude. When one goes to the Boca
and sees the shipping damned and
wedged in the Riachuelo, he is remind
ed OF the Chicago river. When he re.
turns by train along the waters edge
and goes out to Balgrano, passing two
riverside parks, he recalls again the
metropolis of the West, with is rail
ways, pleasure grounds and palatial
residences along the lake shore. The
sun rises over river so broad that it is
Lake Michigan. From that river base
the city has shot out north, south and
west over a broad and level plain,
doubling its population within
decade, and developing an immense
volume of business. 1t is the most
important railway center of South
America. 1t is the outlet for the agri-
cultural produce of continental reaches

or slaughter-house, for the stock-ruis.
ing pampas. 1t commands a fluvial sys-
tenn exceeding in volume the water
shed of the Mississippi. It's commerce
has expanded into enormous compass.
The progress of Buenos Ayres is with
out precedent or parallel in the history
OF South America. The population was
7o, 500 in 1857; III. 500 in 1869; 295. 900 in
1882, and it is at least $50. 900 to-day
Rio de Janeiro has been distanced in
the race Tor supremacy, and at the end
or another ten or twenty years Buenos
AyreS may be close behind Philadel-
phia and Chicago. The development Of
the commerce of the city has been az
remarkable as the growth of population.
In 1850 the import and export trade of
the country, which mainly centers in
this port, amounted to $21, ITO, 900; in
1876 the aggregate was $S1, $50, 900; and
it is now 1928, 524, 013. The house valua-
tions from $37, 900, 900 in 1857 increased
to S246, 600, 900 in 1884; and in wealth
and resources the city has rapidly risen
from an inferior position to the fore
most place in South America. This
phenomenal progress has naturally had
the effect of stimulating the imagi-
nation of the town. 1t has the largest
possible ideas of it's own Importance
and its manifest destiny. The traveller
is abruptly informed that Buenos Ayres
is the biggest, handsomest and most
prosperous city in the Southern hemi-
sphere, Melbourne, Sydney, Rio de Ja-
metro, Montevideo and Valparaiso hay
ing been outrivaled. AS there is no city
in North America that receives proper
tionately as many immigrants, he Is
warned that the position of New York
as the largest center of population on the
American continent is insecure. The
admission is reluctantly made that Mel
bourne, Sydney, and even despised Rio
have each a greater volume of COM
MERGE than Buenos Ayres; but that fact
is explained on the theory that the Ar
gentine Republic is country of unde-
veloped resources, and that twenty years
Of additional progress and immigration
will make the city the first in export
and import trade as it is already the
first in population of the Southern hem
isphere. -Buenos Ayres Cor. Y. Y.

THE MOCK IMPROMPTU.
The Be Way TO Extemporize La to Pre-
pare Carefully Beforehand.

The Be Way to Extemporize La to Pre-
pare Carefully Beforehand.
OF all imprOmptu speeches the one
that is prepared beforehand is likely to
be the best. There are good reasons for
this. An alligator, tired of basking in
the sun, will slide off into the bayou
with considerable ease and some ele-
gance If allowed to perform the ma
neuver in his own time. If the alligator
is hurried, however, by unfriendly man,
the descent into the water becomes
panicky scramble ending in q splash.
Orators are like alligators in this. They
can not tumble with grace into eloq uence
unless they have time to consider the
operation. The best impromptu speak
ers in all ages have made it rule never
to speak without preparation. From
Demosthenes down to Chauncey Depew
the private motto of the extemporaneous
speaker has been ''Semper paratus,"
which, freely translated, means with
speech on hand" Perhaps Demosthenes
went to extreme in anticipation. He
grudged no labor to make the least part
OF his OratiOns perfect and 1t is improb-
able that he always tried to make his
Athenian audiences believe that his
speeches were ertempore. Those who have
succeeded him in the rostrum have not
always been so candid. Parliamentary
1ebate often demands the appearance of
spontaneous utterance, and it has
greater weight than speech which is
evidently the result Of antecedent study.
The charms of the impromptu are not
confined to the political grafton or the
after dinner speech. The divine in the
pulpit who can simulate, if not actually
practice, extemporaneons preaching has
the advantage of him who reads from
manuscript, or refer occasionally to
notes. On the stag nothing is so
likely to make hit as action or word
that appears to be born of the occasion
Actors are we'll aware of this and not
seldom prepare impromptus, usually in
the shape of topical illusions. Mr.. JEFF
terson, although above the use of mere
local gags" is one of the great actors
who knows how to simulate spontaneity
In expression of voice and face, so that
the audience is brought to believe that
piece of carefully conceived and prac-
ticed by-play is the result of the mo-
ment's suggestion. In short, there is no
limit to the value of extemporizing,
whether it be practiced in Congress, in
church, at the dinner-table or on the
stage. And the best way to extempo-
cize is, as we have said, to prepare care
fully beforehand. OF course there is
such thing as the genuine impromptu
but 1t is very rare thing indeed, and
- compared with the mock article. its
success Is rarer still.-Pittsburgh Dis

raordinarv Achievements of America
SightIess Ship Builder.

Extraordinary Achievements of Americas
Sightless Ship Builder.
The most notable blind man now liv-
ing is John B. Herreshoff. He lives at
Bristol, II. l., and he is at the head of
one of the largest ship-building firms
in the United States. He has been
blind since his fifteenth year, but he
has designed and superintendent the
construction of some Of the finest steam
yachts now afioat. So completely is he
the master even of the smallest details
of his vast business that when the rep
resentative of South American gov
eminent called upon him few years
ago, and asked for what sum he could
build and deliver three torpedO-boats
of a peculiar size and pattern, he re-
quested only half an hours time for de-
liberation before giving his answer
Before the half hour was up he had
mentally gone over the whole matter,
cost of building and the time that would
be required, working from the new and
strange plans submitted, and had de-
cided at what price he would be justi-
fed in taking the contract. His offer
was accepted, the boats were built and
delivered at the time stipulated, and
Herreshcff Brothers made handsome
profit from the contract.
This incident, one of many which
might be quoted, only goes to show what
sort of man is John B. Herreshoff, the
blind ship-builder. Not since he was a
boy has he been able to see the graceful
outlines of the ships and schooners
which pillow the blue waters in sight of
which he was born, but he carries per-
feet picture of each and every one of
them in his memory, and it is this gal
lery that he draws upon in devising the
plans which have made his name a IA
miliar one to ship-owners in all parts of
the world. So thoroughly has he trained
all his mental faculties to bear upon
his life work that when description of
piece of machinery is read to him he
can at once point out its merits and
defects, while so fine and true is
his sense of feeling that by merely
running his fingers over the lines of
design he can gain as accurate an idea
of it as though he saw it. But John B.
Herreshoff is more than skillful
designer of swift and beautiful sailing
vessels and steam yachts. He is also
man of great executive ability. He
looks carefully after the financial affairs
of his firm, and personally superintends
every department of plant employing
hundreds of men. A visitor, ignorant
OF the misfortune, seeing him seated in
his office debating letters or receiving
reports. or strolling unguided about his
ship-yards giving directions to his fore
men, would never suspect that he was
blind. He possesses all the require
ments of a great inventor-some of his
conceptions have done much during the
last twenty years to revolut:onize ship
building-and of great captain of in
dustry. But for his blindness John B.
Herreshoff would leave as deep and en-
during mark upon the history of his
chosen calling. as did the late John
Ericsson. As 1t is, he is the most re-
markable member of an extraordinary
family which three generations of abil
ity and skill have made illustrious.-St

Interesting Facts Concerning the Vessel
That Landed the Pilgrims.
A new training brig has recently been
launched at the Pembroke backward in
England. This latest conner in the En-
glish navy has been christened Nav
flower, the last of long line of vessels
OF that name. This has brought out the
interesting and little known fact that
the Pilgrims Mayfower of 1920 was at
one time an English war ship. The
name is one of the oldest ship names in
the English navy, going back to 1415.
when vessel with that name carried
some OF the knights who fought al
Aglncourt across the channel. Her sue
cessor-the Mayfower of 1447-was the
flagship OF Richard. Duke of Gloucester.
But the Mayflower of 1920 was an old
Armada veteran long before she came
across the Atlantic, and took a promi-
ment part in that historic sea fight in
1888, lighting alongside of brakes Re.
venge and Hawkins Victory. In the

made last desperate attempt to save

that the officials of Lynn offered the

The Graphic enormously implies that
the Mayfiower ended her days inglori-
ously in the slave trade between Guinea
and America. Goodwin, in reference tc

hover was ship of $50 tons, while the
Pilgrim vessel was only $50. The latter
came to Salem in 1929, and the last
known of her was when she was one Of

is THE SUN PEoPLEp7
New Theory OF the Universe Founde
on the Law of 'sActien.''

New Theory OF tho Universe Founded
on the Law of "Actien."
A recent number of the Arena con.
tains an interesting article by Stephen
M. Allen, A. NJ, upon the newly dis
covered law of "Actien," which, if the
theories concerning it are correct, will
deal severe blow to the preconceived
ideas concerning the formation of worlds.
The writer explains that actien is
supposed to be surplus energy or fluid
thrown of from central suns toward
their planets, having direct and posi-
tive agency in the original creation of
the universe. The new law supposes
that our sun. through its axial revolu-
ton, is constantly throwing off actienic
force, which is primarily neither heated
nor luminous, but which passes through
etheric space into the atmosphere of
the earth, where, through combustion,
light, heat, electricity and magnetism,
are produced. In cOrrobora ton of the
theory, it is asserted that, if the sun
were the incandescent mass it has been
held to be, the heat radiated from it
would, in passing through the is, 600, 900
degrees of cold which are known to
exist in the space separating our. sun
from the earth, cease long before it
reached our atmosphere. That darkness
also reigns in the regions of the sun is
likewise incon testible. At seven miles,
the highest point reached by man, the
sky is found to be dark and somber and
the rays of the sun are so dim that it re-
sembles copper-colored moon.
The theory makes provision for the
light and heat Of our solar orb. This is
supplied to it in the form of actienic
force from the parent sun. Lastly, the
conclusions reached are that the sun is
not an intensely heated body, that il
possesses an atmosphere and that it is
provided with moderate amount OF
light and heat. For these reasons there
is no longer any reason, says the writer.
for believing it uninhabitable. The &C
tienic process of world formati is thus
described: "The surplus force thrown off
from the sun at once aggressively enters
etherlc space with a positivenesS that
3vercomes all resistance. A conflict en-
sues between action, the positive, md
ether, the negative principle, resulting
in the birth and construction of automic
and molecular substances, both ponder
able and imponderable, which fly off into
space, but which are used in the con-
struction of a globe
These substances are finally aggre-
gated and held by attraction. They are
formed into a nucleus, which, still un-
der the influence of original actienic and
etheric decompositions, in time forms
globe. From this point, the theory CO.
incides with the principles generally re-
ceived concerning cosmic forces and in
fuences, and the wor of formation is
supposed to be continued according to

OUR GOLDEN GIRLS,

Good American Dollars That Have Reen
Captured BY Foreign Nobiemen.
The immense sum of S44, IT'S, 900 has
gone to Europe during the last few
years with several American girls as an
incum brance to trade for titles. In the
main this dowry of beauty and fortune
purchased poor specimens of men. II
they were in Chicago they couldn't earn
living shoveling smoke out of the city.
Yet they have what all the world of
snObs love-a title Most of them have
vices, and debts, and other things equal
ly undesirable. But title covers
multitude of sins
The American girl is beauty She
is conversationalist She has plenty
of dash and spirit, and gives those blase
noblemen more pleasure in an hour than
they ever had in their lives before And
she is rich that is, all who marry no
blemen are. So he marries her, goes to
heaven, and gets the earth.

The Beginnings of Evil.

The story is an old one, but good for
all that. Said the camel: ut is cold out
here; may / put my head within your
door?" The merchant could not find it
in his heart to refuse. Before long the
camel's neck, as we'll as his head, was
within the little room; then his Shout
ders; then his whole body. So the mer.
chant was crowded out entirely, for the
room was not big enough for both OF
them. We sometimes think it no great
harm if we permit the beginning of
bad habit to enter our bosom. If II
would stop there, it might not do much
evil. But no one knows where bad
habit VIII stop. 1t is quite as likely as
not to crowd out every good thing. So
look out for its beginning!-N. Y.
