Life On the Planet Mars
Everything Is Bigger Birds and Vegetation Preter Earth
By JEAN DORSAY

w. E ALREADY know that there
M are canals on Mars. but NJ. Ed
mond Perrier today assures US
that there is a civilization on that dis
tant planet which would make US blush,
II we knew It. The wise president OF the
Botanical museum has not read this in
the stars, as you might believe, but has
evolved this result through MS THINK
ers brain. The results Of his researches
he had published in a small book en-
titled life on the Planets. Is the
president in earnest2 or does he want
to have the laugh on US or on himself :
I went to ask him this question at the
lodge he inhabits IN the midst or the
Jardin des Plantes, as It becomes the
ruler of a kingdom Of plants and ami
mails
Mr. Edmond Perrier Is jolly. He IS
scientist who smiling does and says
most serious things He speaks quickly
with much precision and elOQuence, and
with q most charming expression In
his face tells you number OF Sclentltlc

Life on the Planets.
Life which animates the earth also
animates the other planets. From what
happens here We may judge what hap
pens elsewhere, examining the exact
conditions in which each planet moves
compared to ours. and having precisely
settled their position in space, which
is very easy, their atmOspherical con-
ditions their density and their general
state, you may arrive at serious prob
abilities. When 1 had finished these
preparatory studies tins is what I ar
rived at in a purely logical manner
1T is impossible for living creatures
to exist on the most distant planets for
no organism surely could arise in the
alkaline seas of Jupiter. while Mercury
being too close TO the sun. can prOpO-
gate no life. 1t is only Venus. the
Earth and Mars which are inhabitable
and which are or Will be inhabited
There is a reason for the existence
of the universe, a reason which we
cannot deny and which fl would be
puerile to deny. the simple name God
IS no capriciOus being. he has laid
down definite, eternal laws of creation.
Looking at things in the Hight Of these
laws we discover that on Venus the
temperature, the dimensions and the
density are very similar to those on
earth. The planet is indeed today in the
same condition as was earth during the
primary epoch, for Venus is younger
than the earth. There are no human be-
ings yet, but enormous reptiles and in
sects as we had them during the car
boniferOus period, a transitOry stage
which slowly evolves. Venus viii al

Mars is a country of gigantic plants,

quick and have very long legs, the

indeed an enchanted country.
