Scientific Discussions
by Garrett P. Serviss

Why will snakes live In any other
country save the Emerald Isle? Why
cannot shamrocks be grown in any
other country but Ireland?-J. r."
You have hit upon one of the hard
est questions in natural history, viz !:
how did the animals and plants in
habiting this little projectile called the
earth get distributed over its surface
as we find them to-day? Before mod
ern science arose no one thought it
worth while to ask such a question,
because then the answer would have
been regarded as obvious The an
swer would have been that God planted
the world with life as a farmer plants
his fields, putting various species In
the places where they could best flour
ish, or where they served some special
purpose of the controlling mind.
Modern scientists are not in accord
with regard to the mode of origin
of the earth's inhabitants. for some
shut out the idea of God the Creator,
and look for some force or principle
in nature-which they are unable to
describe-to take His place, while
others admit that there must have
been at work an all-embracing intelli-
gence and a conscious governing pur-
pose, which terms may serve as their
definition of God. 1t is very hard to
get rid of God. but it is easy to draw
curtain over him.
But however. they may differ about
God, scientists are all agreed that the

States Consequently, the Regular
Army would have to be pulled to
pieces to supply the instructors and
leaders for the citizen army, since,
as already said, the bill makes no
adequate provision for the training
of citizen leaders; that is, officers,
noncommissioned officers and enlis-
ed specialists. Thus, we shall be
just where we were in 1917. Again,
it would be more than a year be-
fore we could create any real mill
tary organization that could take the
field against the enemy. 1t is for
these reasons that 1 say that the bill
perpetuates the worst mistakes of
the past"
League Investigating
The National Security League,
which has been an earnest advocate
of universal military training since
its organization, has not yet taken
position regarding the various
bills before Congress. 1t is carefully
investigating the best opinion on all
sides of the subject before deciding
upon what form of enactment of
universal military training and
army reorganization it will endorse
The foregoing is published solely as
information.

animals and plants have not been dis
tributed with express intention. to va
rious. chosen parts Of the globe by the
Creators own hand. but that they
have spread under the influence and
control of natural" forces. such as
the effects of environment The un-
derlying thought is that the Creator
(sub judice, If you wish) set the ami
mated world going. as He had already
set the solar system going. and al
lowed 1t to develop without His inter-
ference under the control of laws that
were ingrained in its nature, and
which. while fundamentally inviolable,
nevertheless admitted and indeed re-
quire evolutionary modification.
Now. at the very start science is
confronted with question not readily
answered, and that is: When the
earth was prepared for life did life
begin all over the globe virtually at
the same time. or did it begin in som,
selected place. or places, and after
wards spread? To put that question
more pointedly: Did life appear SIM
ultaneously on both sides of the Allan
tic, or did 1t originate only in the
"Old World" and thence find its way
to the New World"
We may never have a conclusive
solution of that problem, but scientists
are continually begging the question by
searching for ways and means by
which various species of plants and
animals could have ''emigrated," thus
assuming that if two species in widely
separated parts of the earth closely re-
semble eac hother they could not have
sprung up Independently in both re-
gions, but must necessarily have start

mestic relations courts to-day. The
fact that they didn't have any the
aters may account for their habit of
staging dramas right in their own
homcs-a habit we have to-day de-
spite the number OF playhouses that
grace our big cities. In Babylon it was
not just the inildelities of man and
wife. but in most instances man and
wives. for their was no Babylonian
law against a man having more than
one or fifty wives"
According to Mr.. Griffith, Babylon
only differed from any American city
in that it's people were born many
hundreds of years ago; that it's streets
and houses were more magnificent;
that it's dress was more gorgeous; /;
that it's men and women were more
religious. As matter of record they
prayed constantly.
The things you read about and hear
about in the days of Babylon have
been transferred by Mr.. Griffith to
the motion picture screen. and there
can be no doubt that THE Fall of
Babylon" like former Griffith works,
is an accurate and authentic repro
duction of those days when Prince
BelshazZar and King Nabonidus ruled
in mighty splendor. There is an emf
nent satisfaction in knowing that this
period OF history has been reproduc ed
for the eyes of to-day.

Then gargle as directed and twice

that a lot of people will say that it

ed in one place and migrated to the
other.
Without discussing this assumption,
let us suppose it to be correct Then
We shall have an obvious answer to
the question: Why are there no
Because snakes fN.d their cradle else
where and couldn't cross the Irish
Sea. They originated. apparently in
Asia and spread easily over Europe,
and got across in considerable num-
bers in Great Britain. by aid of a
row submerged ''land-bridge," but the
Irish Sea was too deep for that kind
OK a bridge, and so snakes and toads
never reached the Emerald Isle. and
few reptiles of any kind succeeded in
getting there. 1t is an old saying
that God is good to the Irish
But when we so further we come
upon new difficulties, which. however,
may not be fatal to the principle of
the explanation. For instance, ireland
possesses a few remarkable species of
piaEts :.nd animals that are absent, or
almost absent. from England, while,
they abound in the Western Mediter-
ranean lands. There is. for instance.
a curiously spotted slug peculiar to
Ireland and to Portugal. while the
sEails of those two countries are also
closely related.
Another example Is found in NADIA
gascar, where there are no venomous
snakes, although nonvenomous
species exist there. Africa has many
venomous snakes. but the sea is deep,
though narrow, between Africa and
Madagascar.
1t may be called a rule in natural
history that snakes. frogs and toads
cannot migrate across barriers of salt
water. Accordingly, nearly all oceanic
islands are free from them and but
sparingly supplied with reptiles of any
kind An interesting question is:
How large would an isolated island
have to be in order that it could from
its own vital resources produce its
own plants and animals? Australia is
almost of continental dimensions, and
il has peculiar fauna and flora.
The prevailing fad of science de-
mands that these should have come
from a suppositious former Antarctic
contingent. or archipelago, that en-
jcyed a genial climate. 1t would be
much simpler to suppose that Aus
tralia bred them herself.
AS to the shamrock, 1t Is va
riety of trefoil, or clover. which finds |
the Irish soil and climate particularly !

for any special explanation.
