HUXLEY FINDS LIFE .
 INCREASE FOR WORM
Fountain Of Youth Successfully Applied to %LOW Life", Claim

London. Feb. 3.--Popuiar interest in the oft-discussed question whether it is possible to keep old age at bay indefinitely and correspondingly pro- long the span of life has been re- vivcd by Prof. Julian Huxley of Ox- ford. He is grandson of tho great Huxley and inherits no inconsidcr- able measure of his talent for pains taking scientific research.
 The common sense view of the life cycle. drawn from the obscrvs- tion of man and the familiar anil msIs," said Prof. Huxley. "is that it proceeds always and inevitably in a definite direction with a definite plan The normal life cycle Of man. for instance. is as follows. The indi- Vidual starts as a minute single cell. then follows a period of rapid growth accompanied by differentiation, then senility, and finally death. which su- perrcnes as a natural phenomenon, even if not through disease or acci- dent"
 Worms Kept at Same Age.
 Experiments had shown, however that tl1is process was not irreversible and was not inevitably similar in all animals; that it was possible to modify the rate of growth and the length of the period of growth and thus prolong life.
 Tt has been shown" Prof. Huxley continued, that by alternately starv- ing and feeding plsnarian fiat~orms they can be kept not only within certain definite limits of size. as was to be expected. but also within cer- tain definite limits Of age. One ami mai has thus been kept of the same age-that is. the same lively activity. the same form, the same type of be- havior-for e time during which the rest Of the brood have passed through translated. in human terms, would translated into huap terms. would take us back to Chaucer. Thus. age docs not merely depend on the lapse of time; it tS tho expression of in ternal processes.
 The elixir of life so long sought in thu middle ages has at last been found-but. alas only for flatworms."
 Reversal in Mental Iafe.
 As an illustration of reversal in mental life. Prof. Huxley mentioned that in some shellshock and neuras- thenia cases the patients revert to an earlier stage of mental existence,
  bodies of adults. '"The most strik- ing case" he said, "was that of an Australian soldier who reverted to the condition of an infant, unable to walk or talk and incapable of taking any food but milk. This is known as mental regresSion."
 Prof. Huxley held that numerous other examples showed that the ap- parent irreversibility of the lifc-cycle was only apparent. and that the ordi- nary type of Hse-cycle had been adopted as the most convenient but not as the only possible method of grappiing with existence. Tn the casc of mammals, the normal life of rats had been prolonged by about 70 per cent.

OF new BUILDING
With Over 500 Members
Present Quarters Are
Now Inadequate
MAY HAVE CAMPAIGN
TO FINANCE PROJECT

Need OF a new building for the
Wilmington Y. NJ. II. A. was a topic
discussed at the weekly entertain
ment Of the Y. NJ II. A. last night

and J. n. sokohl. executive secre-
tary OF the Philadelphia Y NJ. H.
A., formerly holding the same posi-
ton here, were the speakers.
David MARTENS, violinist played
several solos. with Miss Sarah Leo
pold at the piano. l. b. Finkelstein
presided over the meeting.
Mr.. Lieberman told OF difficulties
experienced when the campaign was
held in Philadelphia and the splen-
did manner in which $685., 900 was
raised TO erect a building worthy the
activities Of the organization in that
city.
one OF the most interesting fea-
lures, Mr.. Lieberman added. was the
strong cooperative spirit developed
and the resulting community har-
mony among the people interested. He
said he was greatly disappointed
with the building in use here. with
membership Of more than 500 the
han is entirely inadequate for the
purposes OF association and of the
young women's organization.
The young people need place
for assembling and recreation, he
said. II they are to become tho
best kind Of citizens. worthy OF the
community, they should have the
right sort Of training, and the peo-
Pile who are Interested should and
could erect such a building if they
would go ahead and do IL.
Mr.. Sokohl said he came to say
how do you do to the people with
whom he formerly had worked. He,
too. urged the erection Of a new
building. and pointed out the bene-
fit that would result. lie said he
would be found ION the job when
the people Of Wilmington were ready
for a campaign and would come here
to help with il.
