DEFY7NG ALL AUTHORITY

1t is a great disappointment to read Of the action Of the
members Of the police department of Boston. One had come
to look upon policemen much In the same light as soldiers
servants of the government, standing first and always for law
and order, the symbol of authority. When the police defy au-
thority. ones faith is badly shaken. If there is to be no respect
for authority anywhere we have anarchy and government be-
comes a failure.
The Boston police had formed a union and affiliated them
selves with the American Federation Of Labor in defiance of
the municipal authority of the city. By taking suoh q step the
policemen put themselves in a position where their union
rules and regulations are placed above state laws and city ordi-
nances. They look to certain labor leaders for orders rather
than the officials elected by the people.
When 1t came to q difference between union principles
and the order of their superiors who are the duly elected rep
resentatyes of the people, the Boston police chose the union
and defed municipal authority. In other words, the govern
ment, which soldiers and policemen above all others, are
sworn to uphold, becomes secondary. Should soldiers take the
same course and refuse to obey the order of their superiors we
have mutiny and the government falls.
We cannot believe that the Boston police favor any such
extreme as this, yet In placing unionism above the municipal
authority elected by the people, that Is the course they have
taken Truly 1t is time for sound thinking and for calling a
halt before 1t Is too late.

 Tt makes me laugh now" says Miss Kennedy. q was in London a a very little girl and there were two remarkable marionette entertainments attracting large audiences. In one of the theatres a clever group of Italians were producing marionette shows and in the other company of French managers were holding simi ar entertainments.
 "Marionette humor is often inc0m prehensible, but the little figures can be given the attributes and qualities of the man operating them. The operator can impart to them his owr subtlety, if he possesses that quality remember the howls of delight from the audiences at the French theatre when the marionettes would shrug their shoulders with all of the questioning derision of the expres- sive Frenchman of reality

SAYS SUPERMAN IS
 VERY SLOW PRODUCT
 OF LONG EVOLUTION
[. W. Rogers in Address Last Even ing Lectured on the Higher Order of Human
 Beings

Quoting Huxley and other scientists last night at A. B. Hall. argued the reasonableness of the existence of al order of supermen who are the high CT products of evolution. He' said that the ancient belief that man is the highest in creation is entirely out of harmony with well known facts. "We can see an orderly gra dation of life and intelligence" he continued, "extending downward be low us, through the animals, the rep tiles, the insects, and disappearing beyond our ken in the microbes. Just as certainly there must be a grada tion of intelligence extending upward from the human kingdom to the Supreme Being" The lecturer ar gued that in the hands of the super men, who were the first fruits Of evolution, must rest the work of guiding and directing groping human ity. It was through such channels that great spiritual impulses came to the race. All religions had com- mon origin and differed only in de tail while always presenting the same fundamental morality. They differed at all only because the civilizations and peoples to whom they were giv en differed in type of mind and un- derstanding.
