Tell the Age of Oceans

Washington.-How old is the ocean !?
Standing on the shore and looking out
over the expanse of water, the ocean
seems q fixed and eternal fact, but
the seas had beginning and will have

have been absorbed into the earth's
crust, its surface will be desert and
all life will become extinct. -
The age of the oceans have been
estimated by a leading authority, Pro
lessor Frank Clarke Of the United

The independence of Spanish South
america was rendered possible by the
Treaty of Buenos Ayres, which united
all of SPANS revOlted colonies below
the 1sthnus of Panama in a league
against the mother country, or any
other country which should question
their right to set up for themselves
as free and Independent nations.
Strangely enough, the South Amer
lean revolution started in an uprising
of the colOnists in behalf of the leglti-
mate king of Spain, Ferdinand VII.
Napoleon having placed his brother
Joseph on the throne of Spain. Ven
ezuela. New Granada (Colombia) and
Buenos Ayres (Argentina), revolted
almost simultaneously in 1910, deposed
the royal officers, and established
juntas with the avowed purpose Of
holding those colonies for King
Ferdinand. In March of 1911 a Ven
ezuelan congress was convened and
on July a declaration of independ-
ence was adopted. In New Granada
the province of Cartagena declared
Its independence in the same year.
BogOta, or the province of Cudina-
marca, proclaimed itself independent
during the captivity of the king"
The eastern provinces sought an alli-
ance with Venezuela. Meantime, a
revolution broke out in Ecuador
which was Joined by the part of New
Granada adjoining, but this seems to
have been rather mixed up affair,
the revolutionists not exactly sure of
what they wanted.
Revolution Expanded.
The revolution in Buenos Ayres
spread over all that section, but it was
not until after independence was de
clared, what is now the Argentine Re-
public taking the name of the United
Provinces of La Plata. Paraguay, which
revolted in 1910, proclaimed its in
dependence the next year and refused
to unite with La Plata, which, as yet,
had not revOlted. Uruguay had been
made a part of Brazil in some of the
royal and imperial deals of Europe
and was held by a Portuguese army.
The revolution broke out in Chile in
1912 and was suppressed only to break
out again. 1t was not until 1918 that
Chile finally declared her independ-
ence.
1914 King Ferdinand had been re-
stored to the Spanish throne, SO those
colonies which remained in revolt and
had not declared their independence
seemed to have little excuse for their
independence or existence as govern
ments.
%, Between the beginning of the upris-
ings in 1910 and the Treaty of Buenos
Ayres in 1923 there was constant
warfare between the Spanish and CO.

the Spanish power and from there the

Spanish viceroys waged war on the
other colonies. In Upper Peru, or
what is now Bolivia, however, there
was a strong antagonism to the royal
authority which spread gradually to
the other parts of viceroyalty and
rendered the Spanish supremacy pre-
carious. In 1921 this Peruvian movez
meEt had gained such strength that
an assembly of Peruvians declared
independence, though the viceroy still
held his post and, by the command OF
the sea which he possessed and the
strength of the royal forces, still
fought to subdue South America to
the Spanish crown.
BraziI's independence Declared.
= In 1922 Brazil declared its indie
pendence of Portugal and set up as an
empire under the head of the royal
house of Braganza, who gave up his
claims to the Portuguese throne. In
the tumult which ragged around her
in South America Brazil took no part.
Her revolution was peacefully accom-
plished and her independence peace
fully secure. But all Spanish-Amer-
lea was in a state of chaos The
revolted colonies could not even agree
among themselves and were rent by
international discords. 1t looked as
if Spain, by vigorous effort, might
yet restore her authority in South
America, attacking the revolted col
onies in detail.
Simon Bolivar had now succeeded
in forming out of Venezuela, New
Granada and Ecuador the Republic
of Colombia. He saw that union was
necessary for the securing of the In
dependence of the colonies and in
January of 1923 sent Don Joaquin
MOsquera to Buenos Ayres to propose
a defensive alliance of the United
Province of La Plata and the Repub-
lie of Colombia.
Hoped to Have Colonies Unite.
Rivadavia was Professionally in
charge of the La Plata government.
His tdea was to have all the colonies
unite in a peaceful understanding with
the mother country by which the rev.
olution should be completed; he was
evidently listening to the siren song
Of the royal commissioners. MOsquera
insisted upon military alliance
against Spain.
The result was that for the first
time Spanish South America showed
united front. The treaty was signed
on March 3, 1923. On December 8,
1924. was fought in southern Peru
the battle of Ayacucho in which Cen
eraI Sucre with the allied army de-
feated and captured the Spanish vice
roy, La Serna. Fourteen Spanish
generals gave up their swords that
day and the war of independence was
at an. end, except for a few minor
engagements.

sAmid the breaking up of empires,
the birth Of new nations and the re-
birth of old ones, Finland seems to
have come in for place as an 1nde-
pendent country, something that she
never has been before since the thir-
teenth century, when the Firms were
subjugated and ChristianiZed by the
Swedes. For over hundred years Fin
land formed an integral part Of the
Swedish realm and furnished to That
kingdom a host of men eminent in
war and peace. Under Swedish rule
Finland enjoyed an autonomous con-
stitutional government and developed
unique civilization of it's own.
Swedish was spoken in the towns and

Then came the invasion of Finland
by Russia in 1909 and the treaty OF
Frederikshavn, by which FINLAND

the Firms began.

Near the Finnish Border.
When Peter the Great built his new
capital amid the swamps of the Neva
he placed it only So miles from the Fin
nish border and from that hour Russia
looked upon Finland as something that
must eventually be hers. The adven-
lures of Charles XII of Sweden az
forded Peter his first opportunity to
seize part Of the coveted territory.
Charles was as determined to crush the
growing power of Russia as Peter was
to make her the COLOSSUS of the
North" At the battle Of Pultowa,
June q. 1909, fought in what now calls
itself the Ukraine, the destinies of the
two nations for while hung in the
balance. But "victory passed to the

But a good chance to grab all Fin
land did not present itself to Russia
until the general upheaval of the Ma
poleonic wars. After the peace Of
Tilsit, Russia and France being al.
lies, the car had a free hand with
regard to Sweden and resolved to seize
Finland. He called it himself IAN act
of bad faith toward relative and an
ally" In February of 1908 Russian
army invaded Finland. The aged and
incapable field marshal Klingspor, who
commanded an army of Firms and
Swedes in Finland was ordered by the
panic-stricken Swedish king, Gustavus
Nv, to save his troops as best he could.
"GibraItar of the North"
With the fall of Sveaborg, which
the Swedes called the "Gibraltar of the
North" all hope of saving Finland was
lost; but during the summer a Finnish
army fought several battles with the
Russian troops not without success.
In the fall, however, the Russian army
was increased, and on September IA
was fought the battle of Oravafs, ia
Lie
lasted Is hours and was only decided
in favor of the Russians by the timely
arrival of re-enforcements. In this
battle the Swedes and Films lost 1900
killed, one-thfrd of the whole force with
which they went into battle. The rem
nants of the army withdrew under the
cover of night, when the increased
number of Russians made it folly to
continue the battle, and crossed the
Swedish frontier. Finland was now
lost. In Stockholm when the disastrous
news reached there, the king was de-
posed and his son, Prince Charles made
regent. In Seeland lay a French army
under ernadOtte-destined to be-
come king of Sweden later-ready to
attack. The regent now turned his
attention to Russia and attempted to
drive out a Russian army which oc-
cupfed West Bothnia. He was unsuc-
cessful, but finally that army withdrew
of its own accord. The car now sig
nified that he was willing to treat for
peace and on September II signed at
Frederikshavn a treaty by which Swe-
den gave up to Russia all of Finland
and the Aland islands. After that
treaty Finland was in a constant state
of unrest and contention with her Rus
sian masters. Now she proposes to set
