Walter Moore Coleman writes 10
Science from Cambridge, England

The soldier next the drummer steps
with the drum-beat, the soldier 20
feet in the rear is One-fourth second

BUDDHIsTs HOLD SPOT HOLY
Famous Pasoda. Built by Hermit. Has
Long Been Visited by Thrones
of Pious Pilgrims

Sightseeing in Burma is apt to be
one pagoda after another, and at that
the tourist misses most OF them. One
that he usually does not see unless he
is especially energetic, or has an in
Kyaik-hto-yo pagoda. one OF the most
holy spots in Burma In the eyes of
the Buddhist Burmese.
The Burmese say that the builder of
this pagoda was a hermit, theory
which seems probable enough, for 1t
is built on the top Of a steep hill In
a location which could appeal only to
one OF solitary inclination. Even the
crest of the hill must have been too
close TO the world for the holy man,
for he located his shrine on a huge
bOwlder, which may have been steady
enough in his day, but which now
seems ready at any time to slip of
into the valley several thousand feet
below.
Assured by the Burmese guide that
the rock has rested at this critical
angle for many centuries, the visitor,
already breathleSS from the reckless
ascent of a Burmese hill, climbs q
swaying bamboo ladder TO view better
the old pagoda. The great rock, with
its shrine forming a tiny pointed cap,
seems even more unsteady from here,
but the guide feels no uneasineSs- He
is confident that somewhere below
the pagoda is a lock of Buddha's hair.
and this alone stays the bowlder from
its fall
In the early spring pilgrims from all
over Burma journey TO this forsaken
spot 10 place flowers on the rock and
offer their prayers and gifts. Jewels
and other offerings are tossed with an
invocation TO Buddha into the chaSm
below the rock. As they leave, they
place lighted candles outside the
shrine and, as they cross the plain in
the evening they can still see tiny
points OF flame marking the sacred
spot for other pilgrims who may fol-
low them.-Chicag News

HOW CHAIN OF HUMAN
w EXISTENCE Is Az

Hi" NdA1N VI III NAN
w EXISTENCE Is AT
f E c TED BY NATU Res
LAWS--Everything out OF
doors Is 8 matter OF law.
That is, all actions OF all Great
ed things are in conformity TO
the laws laid down by nature.
Growth and development are
not BY chance; they are matters
OF law. The robin returns TO
q certain region. not as s mat
ter OF accident or chance, but
because Ii is governed absolute
" By law-just as much so as
the drop OF water flows down
the steep sides of the roof accord
ing TO law.
Every action OF every created
thing affects the action OF all
other created things. All nature
IS interviewer until nothing can
do anything without its having
its effect upon everything else.
That may seem like a strange
statement, but il is a fact. But
let's make It 8 little palmer.
Columbus started across the
Atlantic ocean. anu was headed
for the shore along about what
we now call South Carolina, al
though Of course he didn't know
IL When s few days ont he
saw birds flying TO the south
west and changed his course and
followed them, and landed at
San Salvador. The birds were
following the laws of nature
in their migratiOnS-and Colum-
bus followed the laws OF nature
when he changed his course and
followed them-the law Of na-
ture that gave him reasoning
powers. for he reasoned that the
birds were going toward land.
We are what we are today, in
dividually, because Of some lit
tie happening thousand years
agO-becauSe some Of our ances-
tors took a trip at q certain
time and met others Of our an
ceStorS. or because somebody
else did or did not do a certain
thing. Had q ship bearing some
of our ancestors been driven
mile out Of its course q thou
sand years ago, we would not
be here today
II the roads had not been
muddy one day. some OF our an
ceS1ors would have failed 10 at
tend a gathering which they did
attend. and had they failed 70 at
tend such a gathering, would
not have met others Of our an
eeStors, and the whole chain Of
their lives and OF the lives Of
their offspring would have been
broken We would not be the
identical persons We are today.
So II is true that everything in
the world today is as II is, every
human being in the world TO
day IS as he or she IS, because
OF the millions Of details that
took pIace-because OF the little
happenings IN the lives OF 9TH
ers. The chain OF human exist
ence has followed the laws laid
down; we are what we are,
therefore, because Of natures
laws
