At Last 10 Exclamation Made a. to
t..5. "Why Does "A, Hen Cross
the Road"

Now that n savant has given serious
thought to the behavior and motive
of hen crossing road, m ancient
conundrum, one of the best known in
the world receives plausible solution.
Whoever has closely observed hen
must have noticed that her eyes are
so placed that she looks on both sides
but does not look straight ahead. Her
left eye. for example. sees m ap
preaching automobile. and her quick
decision Is to run away from II. But
she cannot take her eye Off the dan
gerous object. Instead Of fleeing to
the right, which would take her off the
road, she runs to the left constantly
watching the automobile. and So
crosses the road directly in front of IT,.
The savant approaches the conundrum
from point Of view different from
that of the wag 10 Miller. who is said
to have invented it. but the conclusion
seems to be much the same. The hen
wishes to cross the road although it
might be added that her desire de-
ponds very much on her way Of look
ing at thlngs,-Christin Science Mon
