Science

Fear, that formerly was thought to
be instructive, is now known to be the
result Of teaching. Many traits Of
animals, supposed TO be instinct, in
reality have to be taught them by
their parents or other animals.
Young seals have no intention Of
going into the water. They play
about their mother, on shore, and
gradually she entices them into the
water and teaches them to swim.
Darwin said: Monkeys have an
instructive or Inherited fear of
snakes" This statement seemed so
reasonable that 1t was never contra
dlcted until recently. Experiments
have been conducted with snakes and
monkeys and It was found that young
monkeys have no fear OF reptiles at
all. unless this fear has been taught
them by parents, or other monkeys.
Horses Of the western United States
generally are afraid of snakes, but
not always. Young colts are not
afraid of them unti' taught they are
dangerous When the offspring of
western horses are taken to countries
where there are few or no poisonous
snakes they do not associate snakes
with danger, showing that they do
not inherit fear OF them.

RICH CHIEF
.VIOLATORSO OF
BOOZE LAW
Statements That Constitution
Is Almost Divine Are
Awful Rot
BY HERBERT QUICK

n r. r. LOUIS MARSHALL, at the
IIMI great Citizenship Conference,
Ill made a splendid plea for good
citizenship and drew strong indict-
ment of the organized attack on the
Constitution of the United States by
the organized violators of the
Eighteenth Amendment
The rich, who are the chief vio-
lators of the laws against booze sell
ing and booze buying, are of the class
who are always holding up the Con.
stitution for alteration when it serves
their selfish purposes. When it comes
to hootch, however, their motto is,
What's the Constitution beween
friends?" and between drinks.
Mr.. Marshall was right in telling
these people that they can't have it
both ways. If the Constitution is
sacred when It protects property, it
is said when it prohibits booze. But
when he came to his praise of the
Constitution itself he said things
which were very absurd. 1t is such
a great instrument, he said, as to be
almost divine.
Is Awful Rot
Now this is awful rot II it had
been divine we should not have had
so much trouble with it.
The Constitution of the United
States was in the beginning very
capably drawn compromise by which
twelve Of thirteen States were able
to agree-for awhile. It kept the
states together and permitted them
to grow-and that was fine func-
ton.
But it was so far from perfect that
1t had to be amended ten times as
soon as Congress could meet under It.
Then within three years another blum
Ger was found IN It and 1t had to be
amended to keep citizens OF one State
from bringing lawsuits against other
States and thus bringing about such
state of things as to break up the
harmonious development Of thu coun.
try.
Within ten years II was found that
the machinery for the election Of
President apd Vice President was per
fectly silly, and It had to be amended
again.
Straddled on Slavery
Then we got along with the plan
for sixty years The divine" Con-
stitution had to straddle on slavery
1t made negroes property but allowed
their owners three-fourths Of a vote
for every one of them. So under this
instrument so fulsomely praised. we
had a war which was the greatest
civil war ever known, and amended
the Constitution to abolish slavery
We amended 1t again In 1858, and
again in 1870. And lately we have
been amending it every little while.
It is not divine" 1t is not per
feet. It is Just a good attempt at
giving a growing people a basic law
which works most Of the time. To
call 1t anything so perfect as Gid Mr..
Marshall is a dangerous thing. II
sets up a fetish to worship The Con
stitution is our law, and must be
obeyed as It stands. But in this
rapidly developing era OF change. 1t
win probably have to be amended
over and over again. and no doctrine
of divinity" ought to stand between
the Constitution and criticism.
