TIL. Everlasting

immortality is the goal of evolution says Albert
T. Matthews in the Yale Review. There is nothing
quite new in statement of human longing for
and expectation of immortality the soul Christians
and pagans have looked eternal life beyond but
they have not hoped to achieve it by evolution but
by some spiritual miracle in which man himself can
have no part. His activities have been regarded as
bounded by the grave
But Mr. Matthews believes that something must
come of the intense human longing to live forever,
and he says
There has been definite order in evolution
we might almost say definite aim The road of evo-
luton has not always been direct but so far as the
land has permitted it has followed straight towards
citythe city OF mans desire castle of his wiH
The goal is liberty. Liberty for what? Is not the
answer in every mans conscience? Is it, can it be
anything else than the final liberty of the spirit?
Liberty for that part of the immortal consciousness
Of the universe which is imprisoned within u.s. Is
this great unconscious struggle upward of that fra
slime beginning its life struggle out Of
water to the land off the land the air. any
thing else than that spirit which every man
feels within himself bidding him strive and not be
conquered? Evolution is the spirit struggling to
throw off the trammes of matter. Is it not that
spirit to consciousness which inspires our
poets? The spirit which exclams o DEATH
where is thy sting? grave, where is thy vctory?'
The goal of evoluton-can it be anything else than
immortality?"
We may admit that there has been definite
aim in evolution, rather in the minds of the evou-
onists But there used be equally definite aim
the part Of the searchers after perpetual motion
and many other things which considered with
IN reach but which now given up as unat-
tainable
1t is true that we have progressed; we have come
put Of the slime; we have found the land and have
mounted into the air. So, too after perpetual
motion made progress They improved their ma
chinery and reduced friction and came much nearer
to making perpetual motion machine than any of
their predecessors had done. But at length they
reached the impossible stone wall just as eventually
All humans must into the domain Of death.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. s.
That the task of being a wife and
mother should be Numbered among
the learned professions and taught
in the high schools and colleges is
an idea that seems to be steadily
gaining ground.
1t got another recommendation the
other day when DR.. Simon Katzoff,
a well-known psyche analyst, told
the Bridgeport board of education
that it should Immediately establish
high school classes for the purpose
of training girls in the difficult busi-
ness OF being wives. He said that
American girls get no training at
home in this line, and that therefore
the schools must give it. He placed
all the blame for divorce and the
general failure of marriage on the
ignorance of American girls.
Apparently DR.. Katzoff was con-
cerned chiefly with the girls posi-
ton as wife rather than as mother,
and his criticism of the American
wife contained nothing new. He
simply hinted what every interna-
tional observer has stated. that the
American woman is a tyrant in her
home, and the American man the
most petticoat- dominated man on
earth. In the typical American house
hold the husband is deprived of a
large part of his personal liberty in
the matter of his associations, en-
gagements and habits. His wife's
wishes are presented to him. not in
the form of requests, but of demands.
Yet the average American male ac-
cepts this situation philosophically.
For one thing. he has been trained
to feminine domination from early
childhood, for the American youth is
ruled by his mother far more than
by his father. and he is commonly
enslaved by his elder sisters as well.
It seems quite natural to him to have
his Wife take a similar attitude Of
ownership.
In some cases doubtless he would
feel lost without it. Certain II is
that he is generally shocked by the
way German or a Frenchman treats
his wife. while the oriental attitude
OF regarding her frankly as an in
ferior seems horrible to him.
Woman's Opportunity
Doubtless the American attitude is
in many ways admirable. II gives
the woman an unusual opportunitv
TO realize herself as an individual
ana develop any abilities she may
nave. For woman of good char
acter and intelligence it is an ex-
cellent system. But the flaw in it is
that the American tradition does not
demand enough OF the woman TO JUS

COMMUNITY DISCIPLINE


Our police department recently
made the statement that recognized
burglars walk our streets but cannot
be punished because of the indif-
ference of the public. Burglarized
houseLolders refuse to prosecute.
Here is fresh proof of an ancient
principle. Community discipline can
not rise above its source, which is in
the character and will of the citizens
The inner quality of a city can be
pretty accurately judged by the out
ward evidence of law enforcement.
Does Phoenix give evidence of a dis
siplinad, patrician mind, or is she a
low grade, plebian community judged
by her social order? We regret that
there are many things besides rec
ognized burglars walking our streets
that must be put in the scales on the
wrong side.
The common distinction between
the good" citizen on the one hand
and the vicious, lawless element over
against them is comfortable one for
pious respectability, but ii is false.
Lawlessness, of the dangerous kind,
begins at the top. Some time ago
the police tried to put a stop to
double parking, but no stranger
ould even. suspect the existence of
such al. ordinance today. A similar
effort vas made to abolish the glar-
ing lights on cars, yet they still glare
at us; last August it was risky to go
down town with only one light in
January the 'one-eye" is a very pop
ular headlight effect. And the police
know that they have been baffled by
the good" citizens Of the town.
Changeless and impartial is the
moral decree: Only a self-controlled
man can control other men. Stars
and badges Of authority cannot con-
fer this power upon an undisciplined
spirit. II a policeman is lawless in
his own life he walks his beat and
swings his chilly in vain; if he is a
ruffian he cannot quell ruffianism.
Neither can a lawless community be-
come lawlabiding and safe by hiring
''custodians of the law" to defend
that which it violates. If the speed
ordinance is a joke to me and the

preservation is the first law of life,
and If we expect to rise above the
present conditions and to normalcy
without severe losses that will bank
rupt many OF our best citizens and
business men we have got TO do
something that will make our land
really worth the price to which we
doomed ii and sold II for to our own
people during abnormal conditions.
We do not have 10 go back unless we
refuse to take advantage OF the op-
portunties that are now before us.
Our resources are just as great as
they ever were and there is no part
or the world that can offer more for
the money than we can, and while
We can admit that the general trend
or prices on staple products and
commodities may have a downward
tendency for as many years as our
advertising friend stated in a speech
here, we can also believe that we can
make this valley so convenient and
inviting that these lands of ours will
only not have downward trend but
will advance in proportion TO the
number Of practical farmers and
business men that we make il really
a paying business for them to come
in and cast their lots with us.
II is not our custom as Americans
and especially westerners to let
things stump us for any treat length
of time. We are up now against
bringing a great success out of con-
ditions that have been trying TO stun
and defeat us, but on every hand we
see the brains of our state combining
to not only stem the downward tide
but to place our position on higher
and more stable basis. This blow
has hurt but il has also made us stop
and do some real thinking and in
regard to this paved road to Los
Angeles this year you will find few
men who doubt the feasibility, who
doubt our ability or who question
The fact that il is our greatest need.
Then If the above is true the next
move to make is to put the machin-
cry OF everyone of the business or
ganizations and the chamber of com
merce in motion toward boosting and

Curb Market
BY WILLIAM G. HEFFERNAN.
Copyright. 1922

New York, Oct. 17.-There were
a few features in the trading on the
curb exchange today. Prices
changes with few exceptions were
small and upward. At times the
market displayed an unsettled teH-
dency.
The reason for the steady ad-
vance in the shares of New York
Telephone preferred is contained
in a statement that during the first
nine months of the current year,
the gross incofe had been greater
than in any whole year Of the COM
pany's history. During this nine
months, the company has placed in
service II new central offices.
Building construction by the COM
pany also has increased extensive
ly and $4,000 employees are on the
payroll at present. Shares were in
demand today at half point above
any previous high.
Standard Oil issues were COM
paratively active during the first
! half of the session and were traded
in around their previous closing
levels. In the afternoon, selling or
ders thrown upon the market in
Vacuum Oil, Standard Oil of New
York, old and new, and the Indiana
shares brought about sharp de-
clines in these issues.
Mammoth Oil class A gained al
most point on reports that inter
ests affiliated with some of the
Standard Oil leaders had bought
into this stock But the early gain
was more Offset by the afternoon
decline. Mutual Oil, Fensland,
Maracaibo and Simm Petroleum
gained fractionally while New Eng
land Fuel continued in demand and
rose sharply. The advance in
Fensland was attributed to reports
that this company will be absorbed
by Producers and Refiners.
The demand for Macy common
continued and this stock reached a
new high record as a response to
excellent earnings and the pros
pect of the listing of both preferred
and common on the New York
Stock Exchange in the near future.
National Biscuit, new stock was
another active leader, reaching
somewhat better prices. 1t moved
in sympathy with the old shares on
the stock exchange. Phillip Nor
ris and Technicolor held around
their highs of the previous session,
while Mesabi iron went lower.
Durant remained the active
leader Of the motor group The IN
diana shares had further advance
at the opening, subsequently fall
ing back while the common acted
in a like manner. Continental and
Packard appeared heavy.

Bond Market

New York. Oct. 1.-THE reaction
in the bond market was evident to-
day in second grade and speculative
as well as in high grade investment
securities.
The Hudson and Manhattan is
sues are a good illustration. The
first and refunding IS sold down to
SO and the adjustment S. below 60.
These prices are about s points be-
low the high of the year. There Is
nothing in the financial condition
of the company to induce selling
OF the bonds. The latest earnings
statement for eight months ending
Aug. 81 last shows an increase IN
net income from $96,115 in 1921 to
$454 $50 In 1922. The remaining IS
are we'll secured and while inter-
est on the adjustment bond is pro-
tected onl yif earned, there is every
reason to believe the outlook is
good. Only money market condi-
tons or the demand for funds in
general business can account for
losses in market price Of securl-
ties of this class. At today's quo
tatfon the refunding IS yielded 6
per cent and the adjustment 5s
over s per cent.
Other speculative bonds to show
losses included St. Louis-San Fran
cisco income skies and B. r. 7. Is.
In the higher grade issues Missouri
Pacific 6s sold at par, nearer the
low than the high of the year. The
general fours secured by lien jun
ior to the 6s also lost ground. Both
the Southern Railway 51as and the
Southern SIS sold below SO. Losses
! were sustained by Illinois Central
As of 1852, L. and N. unified As,
Union Pacific general As and Atchl-
son As which made new low on
thi smovement below IS.
There was continued heavy trad
, ing in all the Liberty issues with
further losses over yesterday Is
closing. The new treasury 4As
of 1872 were traded in for tie
first time on the stock exchange
| The opening SAFE WdS d. pal ahi
dealings continued around thai
figure or slightly above.
| Some thrifty investors were re,
ported selling the new bonds to buy
the older issues and so profiting by
point or more.
The one exception to the general
weakness was found in the copper
bonds. Chile Copper IS and is anu
| Cerro De Pasco IS all went higher
but here the influence was the
strength in the stock into which the
bonds are convertible.
In the foreign department the

RALLY after
HEAVY START
(By Consolidated Press.)

Chicago, Oct. 17.-Wheat was
heavy during the first half OF the
session but after that offerings
dried up and a good rally ensued.
A sharp decline in local market
caused selling early and this was
followed later by liquidat'"n in
duced by the reported arrival of q
cargo Of 100000 bushels Manitoba
wheat in bond. This cargo was
brought down from Winnipeg by a
local exporter in anticipation of a
cut in the ChicagO-New Orleans
rate but the petitioned reduction
was refused. When it. was learned
that the cargo was only billed
through there was rush on the
part of longs to reinstate lines and
also some short coverings. The
strength in corn induced coverings
also. Cash wheat premiums were
firm and unchanged premiums
were reported from Winnipeg, Min
neapolis and Kansas City. Milling
demand for wheat was quiet but
some export business in Manitoba
wheat was reported worked.
Corn followed wheat The start
was easier with a mixed commits
sion house trade. Later there was
some liquidation. About mid-ses-
sion a report of a strong cash mar.
ket with premiums on all contract
grades, half cent higher caused
general buying and the market re
sponded quickly to this buying
Some of the locals sold December
and bought May early, presumably
closing spreads. Shipping demand
was light.
Oats trade was light and the
market was affected by the trade il
corn. Shipping demand for oats
was fair. Spot premiums were
firm.
Provisions were firmer. A strong
hog market and big reduction il
lard stocks since the first of the
month were factors.
Wheat closed at top prices for the
