Shells Hello ON eeoIoulst.

The little jellylike animals which
the scientist calls Foraminifera swarm
so abundantly in the sea that their
tiny cast-off shells In some places
make up a considerable part Of the
sediments which are laid down on
the sea bottom and which in time
may become beds of rock in a land
area. The small size and the COM
pactness of these shells protect them
from some of the accidents that be-
fall the remains of larger animals, so
that in many samples of well borings
the Foraminifera are the only shells
that have survived In recognizable
form the vicissitudes Of drilling. In
the hands of the specialist trained to
identify fossils. the Foramlnifera
may furnish the only available clue
to the age of rock inclosing them
and consequently to the existence OF
strata or structure favorable or IN
favorable to the accumulation of oil,
gas or water, according to the United
States geological survey.

FOUGHT THE FLOWING BOWL
Eastern Monarchs and Religious Lead
ers Long Ago Lifted Their Voices
Against Drunkenness.

Temperance movements and prohibit
ton crusades date back at least 5000
years. 1t was China that first tried
to be bone2dry. Early reforms along
temperance lines are attributed to the
priests of India and Persia. But the
Chinese claim that in the eleventh CEN
fury before Christ their emperor, so
disgusted over the prevalence of drunk
enness, ordered all the grapevines In
the kingdom uprooted.
A hundred years before this bone
dry effort, in the twelfth century be-
fore Christ, King Wen tried partial re-
form in China. Wen, founder Of the
Chou dynasty, promulgated an AN
nouncement Against Drunkenness" &C
cording to ancient Chinese documents
handed down by Confuclus.
King Wen declared drinking has
long been a national vice." lie or
dered that wine be used only in con-
nection with sacrifices-and even then
drunkenness was not to be tolerated.
The temperance reforms also ex-
listed in Egypt centuries before Christ
Here's what a teacher said to a youth
who had been looking UPON the flowing
bowl too freely:
drink not beer to excess The
words that come out of thy mouth
thou canst not recall. Thou dost fall
and break thy limbs and no one
reaches out a hand to thee. Thy
comrades go on drinking; they stand
up and say Away with this fellow
who is drunk If anyone should then
seek thee to ask counsel of thee. thou
wouldst be found lying in the dust
like a little child"

DistiIIers Will Attack Constitu-
tionaIity Of Federal Prohibi-
ton Amendment.
LAWYERS ARE ACTIVE
Emergency Wartime Law Will Be
Tested In Courts Immediately
After Treaty Of Peace Has
Been Signed.

New York, March 22.-Steps are be-
ing taken to attack the constitution
atty of the federal prohibition amend
ment and the wartime prohibition act,
the committee Of distillers Of the
United States, representing the entire
distilling industry, announced.
Levy Mayer Of Chicago, counsel for
the organization, was instructed to ar
range for suit to test the emergency
prohibition law after the treaty Of
peace has been signed. Action to
bring about judicial review Of the
eighteenth amendment, 1t was stated,
would await the outcome Of referen-
dunn elections in 10 states where Pc
titions calling for a popular vote on
the bone dry" enactment have been
filed or are in circulation.
Referendum Declared Necessary.
Mr.. Mayer advised the committee
that in states having referendum laws
and whose legislatures have ratified
the amendment, the ratification would
have no affect unless majority of
the votes cast in the elections favored
the amendment.
The attorney also gave an opinion
that If the wartime prohibition act is
unconstitutional, manufacture Of dis
titled spirits, forbidden by the Presi-
dent under the food conservation laws
could be lawfully resumed as soon as
the war is ended.
In their discussion Of measures to
nullify the federal amendment the dis
tillers named California, Washington,
Oregon, Nevada, Idaho. Utah. New
Mexico, Colordo, Michigan, Ohio, Mis-.
souri,, Maine and Nebraska as states
where referendum petitions have been
circulated. AS As state legislatures
ratified the amendment, nine more
than the necessary three-fourths, the
distillers' announced plan of action
could not be carried out il the people
Of more than four states approved the
decisions Of their legislative bodies.
