MEN ARE GROWING SHORTER
French savant Years Ago Gave Out In.
formation That Adam Was 1873
Feet Inches Tall.

In recent years anatomists have
shown in a practical way that the
height of a man or woman can be in
creased to a considerable extent by APP
pliances for stretching. These extern
sions, however, have only been Of
inches or fractions of an inch, and
giants have not been, nor are they
likely to be developed by artificial
means. 1t was French savant, named
Henrion, who, 200 years ago, gave to
the world authoritative statements as
to the height of Adam and Eve. He
said that the father of the race was
123 feet inches high and Eve 1l8
feet inches. He noted that from the
creation of these enlarged editions Of
humanity, degeneration had been
rapid, that Noah was only 81, Abra-
ham only 20 and Moses but Is feet in
height.
According to this French authority,
If the Christian dispensation had not
arrested this decrease man by this
time-200 years ago-would have been
mere microscopic object, and we may
conclude that by our time he would not
have been at all. M. Henrion did not
give any explanation as to height Of
those ancients.
Perhaps the most gigantic story on
record is that concerning an immense
skeleton, said to have been in Sicily.
which measured 300 feet in length.
This story, however, carries its own
refutation, as it is said that found be-
side this giant was his walking stick.
which was 80 feet long and thick as a
telegraph pole. A clever calculator
made the estimate that a walking stick
only 80 feet in length for man who
measured 300 feet would be as ridicu-
lous as one Of seven inches for q man

Houston's Aid Calls Crisis
Greatest Since Biblical
Famine
Crop Prospects Poor
Vrooman Hopes Producers
Will Win War Before
Men Fire a Shot

The United States is facing the great
est food crisis since the Biblical days
Of famine. according to Carl Vrooman'
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture who
spoke last night on the food situation
in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn.
With the worlds food crop short TINS
country would be called upon he SAID
TO feed not only ourselves, our Allies
and the neutral nations, but also the
starving millions of the Central row
ers in case peace should come WITHIN a
year.
Famine is lurking behind the battle
lines in Europe Mr.. Vrooman assert
Cd There is starvation in Germany
and every other nation in Europe IS on
war rations. The wheat prospects IN
this country are the poorest in many
years. In the Argentine the crop also
is short. The production and CON
scrvation Of food is now this country's
greatest responsibility
"When Congress voted the $1,000
600 900 war loan it served notice on the
world that this country had underwrit-
ten victory for the Allies. But they
need food greater than money.
"Our army Of food producers is al
ready on the march. They are fighting
their battles in the burrows, and hope
| they will win the war there before our
bows fire a hot in the trenches.
at is entirely possible the Germans
will soon do with the HohenZollerns
what the Russians have done with the
RomanofTs President Wilson's address
to Congress asking FOR the war, the
greatest state paper ever written by
anv living man. has eXerted a subtle
force abroad that is slowly disintegrat-
ing the Central Powers. If the Prus-
sian autocracy is overthrow and a
democracy established the Allied ma
tions will greet the German people with
outstretched hands
War bread of whole wheat would
soon supplant white bread on every
table in this country. Mr.. Vrooman pre-
dicted. The use of 81 per cent Of the
wheat in war bread. instead of II per
cent in white bread, would save the
country from 40,000,000 to 5O,OOO,OOO
bushels a year, he asserted:
Waste is our national vice. MI
Vrooman continued. Let us overcome
it now before hunger forces Us to. Do
it as a privilege, not from compulsion.
The time has come to put living on
scientific basis in this country. One
way to do this is BY conserving food In
the household. You women, go home
and tell your cooks they must quit
wasting food. Your husbands demand
twice as much on your tables as they
need. Germany's mortality rate shot
down when she cut her rations in half"
Not an American soldier who goes to
the front will be wasted as cannon
fodder" in the opinion Of Mr.. Nrooman.
The greatest minds in the country were
at work TO conduct the war on scien
tific basis. he said.
1--WE want every American boy who
goes into the trenches to be as thor
oughIy trained as the Kaiser's men, he
warned

Gary Garden Plan
Inspires Families
To Start Planting

Inspired by the operation of school
gardens under the Gary plan. scores OF
families in the neignborhoods Of the
several public schools where the Gary
system is in operation are preparing to
aid Uncle Sam by planting gardens.
The Gary plan of education is said to
be particularly well adapted to the use
Of school children in increasing the
food output. The operation of the sys-
tenn is well exempliied in Public School
/ 4j, in The Bronx, whose pupils are cul-
| tivating six acres of land. For two
years this school has had a garden,
| planted and cultivated By its pupils
| under the Gary system.
The Gary plan divides the pupils of a
| school into three shifts. One-thlrd or
/ the time is given to study, one-third to
physical work and third to recrea-
ton. In the schools where gardens are
cultivated the pupils till them during
the period devoted to physical work
This results in the gardens having con-
tinuous care for about six hours day.
In schools not under the Gary system
the pupils can care for their garden
only after school hours, which does not
yleid tne pest results.
Public School IS Leads
The work of Principal Angelo Patri
of P. s. 45 and his pupils has aroused
the enthusiasm Of scores OF families
in the vicinity of Hoffman and ls9th
Streets. where the school is located, and
Park Commissioner white has al
lotted them plots in Bronx Park, near
by, for cultivation.
Since Public School 40 has been
teaching gardening under the Gary sys-
tenn five hundred children have been
graduated with a practical working
knowledge of farming and gardening.
In addition TO practical experience the
pupils obtain the necessary scientific
knowledge in the classroom.
In addition to their work in the gar
den the boys of the school have found
time to build a greenhouse for the de-
velopment Of young plants and the
storage of seed during the winter.
They are now planting onefourth of an
acre in potatoes, and Prime pal Patri
expects TO get 100 bushels from 90
bushels of seed
Have One Big Plot
Under the old plan of school garden
ing each child was allotted an indi-
vidual plot, with little practical results.
Under the Gary system one large gar
den is cultivated by the entire school.
Advocates of the Gary system declare
that if it were introduced in all the
schools and gardening carried on as it
is in Public School 40 it would do much
to help solve the food problem. The
Gary' system is now in effect in half
dozen New York schools.
