SCIENCE OFFERS EVIDENCE
THAT PLANET IS INHABITED

the joint is heated, a slight electric
current is generated which cSn be
measured with delicate apparatus.
The instrument responds TO an
amount of heat equivalent to that
given by a candle flame several
miles away.
A temperature between 50 and
go degrees Fahrenheit is indicated
for the surface Of Mars by the
measurements.
Douglass also bases his opinion
on photographs he made, using
camera plates which were highly
sensitive to red light.
These plates, he announces,
show the markings on Mars much
more clearly than do photographs
taken with ordinary plates.
Douglass says this is because or
binary plates are most sensitive to
blue light. Tho surface of Mars
tends to scatter or spread the blue
light and thus make the picture
hazy and indistinct.
ri IGNALING can be done by
~ day with invisible rays.
III Such a system has been
pointed out by DR.. Robert
w. Wood, professor Of expert
mental physics at Johns Hopkins
University.
The sending set sends out flash
es" of infra-red rays. These rays
are invisible. However, they have
a chemical effect, causing certain
substances to become luminous.
The person receiving the mes
sage uses binoculars with lenses
coated with the proper chemical.
AS a result, he is able TO see the
flashes. .
The system cauld be used in
time of war to send messages over
a distance of eight or ten miles,
DR.. Wood says.
90 HE day may came when
buildings will be a half mile
~ high. This is the opinion
of Harvey w. Corbett,
noted architect and president Of
the Architectural Leagne Of New
York.
Streets will consist of four levels
or decks, he thinks.
Pedestrians will use one, slow
motor traffic a second, fast motor
traffic the third and electric trains
the fourth.

Fundamental Facts

EV1E are in grave danger of losing our per-
lW spective in this controversy oyer evolu-
ton. There is too much loose talk and loose
thinking. There is too much jumping to con-
illusions. This applies not only to the evolution
controversy, but to many other subjects IN the
minds of all Of us.
The questions whether man evolved from
a lower form or whether the theory OF evolu-
ton is in conflict with the Bible are not IN
volved. All the arguments of Bryan and
barrow, of the fundamentalists and the evolu-
tionists, all the legislation Of law-maklng
bodies, all the street corner arguments can not
change a single FACT.
Jesus Christ said in His Sermon on the
Mount: (Which of you by taking thought
can add one cubit to his measured" q
Today he might ask: Which of you by
passing laws can change one particle the laws
of nature?
Scientists may reveal that certain things
are facts but they can not change facts. Bryan
may argue until he is blue in the face that all
men should believe as he believes, but he will
not change FACTS and he will not change
CHRISTIANITY.

lit will survive because it is basic, because the
things that Jesus taught are based upon hu-
man FACTS. Science will survive all such con-
~troversy because it is based on FACT.
FV1HEN we learn that it is logically and
w physically impossible to have two con-
ficting TRUTHS we shall stop arguing. The
present argument is simply the old hypothesis
of an irresistible force meeting an immovable
body. There can be no such thing.
What we need to do in this country is to
get back to fundamentals-not the artificial
fundamentals of the self-styled fundamental
lists, but to the fundamentals of FACT.
There is one fundamental of religion as
taught by Jesus Of Nazareth. He said: GA
new commandment I give unto you: that ye
love one another"
There is one fundamental of human free
dom and it is this: So long as a man shall not
interfere with the rights of his neighbor he
shall be a free agent. Every man shall have
the right to his own thoughts and every man
is entitled to ACCESS TO ALL KNOWL-
EDGE.
There is no conflict between these two
fundamentals. There can be none, because
both Of them are sound. One must of neces-
sity be the complement of the other.
On one is based all our religion. On the
other is based our right to live and think and
act. Men have died for both. Jesus himself
died on the cross for the sake Of not only ore
but BOTH of these fundamental principles.
If Jesus had believed in coercion and had

Adding Machine, Not
Politics, Needed

INIlEWSPAPER correspondents writing from
III Washington have discussed the poll
tics" that may determine the outcome of the
Brookhart-Steck senatorial election contest.
There are various good political reasons
why the regular Republicans have cooled in
their ardor to eject Senator Brookhart. We
are told he is wanted in the regular fold.
Then reasons are given why some Democrats
will go to any length to seat Steck, Brook
harris Democratic opponent. And why other
Democrats won't lift a finger in his behalf.
All of which seems to us to be wids Of
the real issue. The voters of Iowa and not a
group of Senators are empowered to choose
their own Senator. The present duty Of the
Senate is merely to supervise an accurate re-
count of the vote which has been questioned by
Steck.
Whether Brookhart retains his seat, or
whether Steck replaces him, should be deter
mined by adding machines now busily engaged
in the vote tabulation-and not by politics.
1T appears the new paper, The National
Democrat, is not a huge success.

Mars presents one Of the most

Many astronomers think Mars

Douglass bases his opinion on

r CHARACTER actor OFTEN
TAI goes along doing honest and
III sincere work, but usually he
does not become a star.
But it Is often the character actor
which causes a show to take on new
beauty and interest.
Such a thing Larry Sullivan as
the lovable Joseph Renard in Dear
Me-" is doing.
Larry has 'aged" into an agree
able and generous old artist, a
failure in his trade, but a success as
a man. 1t is this aging process,
done with marvellous knowledge as
to make, up as we'll as voice, that
permits Sullivan to become the out
standing success in a well acted
stock bill.
Sullivan gives the character a real
personality. You feel that Sullivan
has permitted his own personality
to vanish, permitting it to become
Joe Renard, the lovable old v%iolinist.
He does not over act, but permits
the character To actually live. One
OF the very IiitSl ClldA dNNSA NeNAeAAo
that a Berkell Player has given us
this summer.
And there is plenty of good acting
present in Dear Me-" Edythe
Elliott, while not so happy In song,
is mighty pleasing and effective as
the little slavey who becomes a
naughty prima donna only to become
natural again near the end of the
play. Milton Byron is seen as the
Pollyanna hero. Nice sugar coated
role with which he is always at
ease. Another triumph is the work
of Mary Hill as the haughty Mrs.
Carney. Here is a remarkable bit OF
acting. Notice her makeup. Wonder

What Is the origin OF foot bind
ing in China?
There has been much speculation
as to the origin OF bandaging the
feet of female infants in China. An
old tradition Is that q Chinese
Empress, noted for her vice, had a
congenital club foot. Unwilling to
have different feet from the other
women Of the empire, and desiring
to conceal her own deformity, she
decreed that every female infant
have her feet bound Immediately
upon birth. other authorities say
that the foot was at n time the
focus of sexual attraction, and that
footbinding is a relic Of foot
fetichism.
