PROFESSOR MILLIKAN, head
OF the California Institute OF
Technology, calls evolution "the most
sublime conception that has ever en-
tered the mind Of man." a universe
developing through definite COM
prehensible system of ordered change.
He calls evolution more dignified
and plausible than the orthodox view
that all fishes, insects, and other ami
mails, were made, presumably in
pairs, male and female, instantan-
eously by divine will, man being
made last all alone, and then as an
apparent afterthought, woman ere

Twice Victorious, Mother
Starts Final Legal
Fight for Tots.

Twice victorious, once in battle
of wits for the possession of her little
son, Roscoe, and again for her own
liberty. Mrs. Virginia Canaday Sat
urday began another legal fight for
freedom when she filed suit in Ninety
fourth District court for divorce
against Roscoe II. Canaday, million
aire New York manufacturer. Thus
the curtain rises on the final chapter
of a marital drama which has en-
gagged the attention of two states.
Spiriting of the boy from his grand
mothers arms in San Antonio, re-
covery of little Roscoe by his mother
in New York, a frantic flight to
Texas, indictment of the mother on
kidnapping charges by a Queens Coun-
ty, New York, grand jury, an extra
dition fight before the governor of
Texas and finally her vindication by
a Bexar grand jury-these are some
of the thrills which attended the two
year marital battle between the mil
lionaire and his wife.
SEEKS DIVORCE.
And as Mrs. Canaday begins her
last fight her two children for whom
she has waged bitter legal battle
against their father, are by her side.
Mother love has triumphed and now
she would sever the last tie that holds
her to Roscoe Canaday.
Divorce proceedings were instituted
by W. c. Linden Jr., her attorney,
who Immediately withdrew the petit
ton before its contents could be learn
ed. Thus no inkling upon which the
divorce grounds are based could be
obtained. The petition, however, it
was learned, asks for citation by pub
LEGATION, thereby obviating the neces-
sity of actually serving papers upon
Canaday.
II have nothing to say" Mrs. Can
aday declared Saturday.
REFUSES TO TALK.
Mr.. Linden also was non-committal.
"The divorce suit has been filed,
yes" was Mr.. Linden's statement.
Further than that I have nothing to
say"

day and Texas wife over the Gus

Open Inspection
Office For Grain

! SACRAMENTO, Calf, Aug. g.
, A grain inspection office has been
established at 146 West Weber ave-
nue., Stockton, according to informa-
: tion given out by the California
department of agriculture and it is
believed that the opening of this
office will enable interested parties
to secure official certificates as to
quality and condition. In annOunc-
ing the opening, G. H. Hecke, di-
rector of agriculture. states that
Stockton is the logical point Tor an
inspection oftIcc, noC only because
of the large volume of grain and
beans which are produced in the
surrounding territory, but also be-
cause Of the heavy tonnage of grain
and beans which move through
Stockton by rail and water, not only
for local manufacture and consump-
tion, but also for diversion to other
points.
"The department of agriculture
maintains grain inspection offices
! at Sacramento. San Francisco,
Stockton and Nallejo,' Hecke add
ed, "wherc official certificates as
to grade on grain and beans may be
secured. The employees of the de-
partment are licensed by the federal
government to issue grade certifi-
Gates on corn, wheat, oats, rye,
grain sorghums and barley. These
certificates are issued in accordance
with official United States stand
ards which abe uniform throughout
, the United States.
Isuue Certificates
"Gradc certificates are also is
sued on rice and beans, these lat
ter grades being issued in accord
.ance with authority given by the
grain standards act, which was pass
ed by the 1921 legislature. This
law provides for Standardization
and certification as to quality and
condition of many of our field crops
and the certificates are issued upon
request of interested parties, a small
fee being charged foi the service.
"The Importance of these field
crops to California agriculture, and
the necessity of selling these pro-
duets in accordance with quality
and actual value, emphasize the need
of official state inspection and the
issuance of official certificates
These certificates do not fix the
monetary value of the product but
do enable both the producer and
buyer to deal intelligently on Il daf-
mite basis when making settlement
or establishing prices. The expert
ence of every other grain producing

experience ef every important term.
