WORLD Is MORE THAN BILLION
YEARS OLD. =

Pasadena, Calf, Feb, 10th.-This
whirling globe called the world is more
than one billion, five millions years ole.
That was the opinion EXPRESSED by DR..
Robert A. MiIlikan, world famous sci
enlist of the California Institute Of
Technology, who won the Mabel prize
for bis research work or Che atom and
whose recently announced discoveries re.
qarding new cOsmic rays created a SEN
sation among scientists.
''Disintegration of the element uGaui-
um in the Black Hills. South Dakota,
proves that the world is at least l, 518, 600
years old and how much older no man
may even conjecture" DR.. Milikan de-
cIared.
Uranium has been found d|isintegra5-
ing nto lead, the scientist said. EXpe.
rimerts with uranium made recently,
he said, show the rate at which ulanlum
is TUNED into lead and from this basis
the worlds age has been discovered.
The figures OF the scientist, how
ever, do not include the period "a hen
the world may have been a whining
ball of fire upon which no life or solid
matter existed.
DR.. MiIIikan declared that like urani-
am, the other eighty>nine elements are
probably in constant change and that
many are knoUn certainly to be. Evo-
luton, he said, is a constantly present
fact in life and there is no element, it
is probable, which is not changing in
some degree.
Advancement TO be made in this world
in the next 200 or 300 years will depend
largely on the work of scientific +nen,

PLEASING THE PRESIDENT

dispatch from Washington relates that the
news of Watsons denomination brought him the
hearty congratulations of President Coolidge
The chronclers say that the President Is
pleased. And happy. He almost smiles.
Yet the only reason which Watson gave to the
public for denomination was the fact that he was
opposed to President Coolidge on the two outstand-
ing policies of the Administration
He boosted that he had voted against the Presl-
dent on the matter of the world court
He was even more vehement in his declarations
that he vas opposed to the Coo(ge policy of farm
relief and stood with the radicals in Congress-
or course, the truth is that what Watson stood
for or against had influence upon the primary re-
suits.
Watson was renomnated because he had the
party organization, had bargained with the Khan
had dealt with the local city machine which always
had enough real and phantom votes ready to pro-
tect him, and had plenty of campaign funds.
If that pleased the President, he is really not
such difficult man to get along with.

FOUR MINUTES FOREVER
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

Chauncey Depew Americas foremost after-dinner
speaker. has just celebrated his birthday. Many
people wonder at the for his longevity That's
an easy Mr. Depew had to listen to
speeches. he always made them.
OF all the left to this generation by the late
World War, financial depression. immortality. restless
ness, cyncism, nothing take precedence the
four-mnute speech.
Before Europe became bathed in blood, the most
or our citizens were content with quiet existence but
with the thunder Of the guns at Verdun Americans
started making speeches and we have recovered
from the habit Along with paroxysms of patriot
ism we all became mbued with desire rise and

length and breadth of the land Grating gesticulat
ing. From Broadway to the Cross Roads, eoquence
spouted. And the of this generation the four
minute speech was born. Everybody talked: the

Rotary Club, the naturaliZed farmer, the garage

the alacrity with which leaped the platform,

Even today decade after the deluge we cannot
seem to forget the delights of that epoch speeches.

arriving as the millennium. Lack
of funds to acquire the needed
ground or something equally vital
to the project intefered always.
Users of the bridge still give
realistic limitations of Eliza cross
ing the ice, or Hannibal crossing
the Alps when trying to negotiate
passage. Bus customers bounce
about like popcorn kernels on
redhot stove when their vehicle
jolts off or on the bridge, bound
north or south.
And that has been the condition
for eighteen months.
Quite likely the residents in the
vicinity are justified in opposing
erection Of filling stations on the
proposed sites. Filling stations,
though more distinctive Of present
day civilization than homes or
churches, might be annoying
neighbors, and detract from the
architectural beauty of the bridge
as we'll as obscure the rugged
scenery of the roadway leading
to and from it.
But all the argument pro and
con over filing stations doesn't
alter the fact that completion of
the approaches IS a public neces.
sity, which should be undertaken
at once even if the city has to buy
the necessary ground.

Peggy Wood Declares Candida Is Safe.
Sane Woman Not Feared by Any Man

George Bernard Shaw's Candida"
with the original cast practically in
tact, will be the Stuart Walker pres
entation at Keith's, beginning Mon
day night. The play will be costuned
in the period of its writing, which Is
the early nineties.
Miss Peggy Wood. who succeeded
Katherine Cornell in the title role of
the play. will have her old role when
Stuart Walker presents the play in
this city next week.
"One woman men understand. or
at least think they understand
which amounts to practically the
same thing" says Miss Wood, us
woman like Candida. Men think
they understand her because they are
not afraid of her. They feel safe
with her. She's the safe and sane
woman who a man knows, directly
he meets her, is not going to vamp
him.
Candida Is the sort Of person
who's o combination of child and
mother, rather than the sex image.
There are real life Candidas all
around us. On the stage some Of our
most successful actresses have been
the child and mother type. for in

women. But don't agree with
them. Men have come in droves to
see Candida for 1 think they like
on the stage as we'll as at home. to
watch a heroine who is simple, safe
and sane-a woman they're not
afraid Of and can be at peace with. I"
In addition to Miss Wood, the cast
of Candida" will include Morgan
Farley. Elizabeth Patterson. Elliot
Cabot. Richie Ling and John Storey.
The play will be transferred here

ing presented at the Grand Opera

vented from striking in sympathy with other work
ers whose cause they may indorse in their hearts.
Every step that has been taken toward the sane
tity of such contracts has increased the assurance
of industrial peace in America One of the worst set
backs given this assurance incidentally the &C
ton of many bitumnous coal operators last year in
breaking the Jacksonville seven-year wage agree
ment with the miners after it had two years. 1t
is regrettabe that the present Government, a way
a party to that agreement, refused when asked by
the miners to express it's dsapprova of the action
of the operators. The way of wise craftsmanship
would to be to indicate the country's complete
Endorsement of labor policy that undertakes to
guarantee the country against industrial conflicts.
All in ALL the people of America can scarcely
foresee time when such a situation that now
affecting England may arise With the natural
wealth of this country and the increasing wisdom
of employers and employed the prospect should grow
more and more remote until it fades entirely GU. Of

THE MOSQUITO A
SOURCE OF POWER

The mosquito, especially the ma
laria and yellow fever bearing
breed. is the cause of the United
States commanding position
among the nations Of the world,
says Joseph A. Leprince, sanitary
engineer to the United States pub
lie health service.
If 1t hadn't been for this pest,
he points out, South and Central
America, with their climatic and
natural advantages, would have
been the centers Of civilization on
this hemisphere and would have
attracted the horde Of immigrants
that built the United States.
Is the idea Of the eminent mos
quito fancier far-fetched? Maybe.
1t is sort of like blaming the pres
ent outburst of bobbed hair, ban
dts. the Charleston and other evils
of the times on Adam, Noah ard
other old-time patriarchs. If it
hadn't been for Adam there would
be no United States.
1t seems discourteous and ungal-
liant, to say the least, for a great
big, healthy man to pick on a
tiny insect and accuse it Of chas-
ing civilization out of the natural
path.
But it was the mosquito more
than any other cause that wrecked
the glory that was Greece and the
grandeur that was Rome. Those
