Life Between the Stars.

It has frequently been suggested
that the. bacteria were the first AMI
mails on the earth, as they can stand
intense heat, intense cold. much
oxygen or none, and can, unlike most
other living things, make direct use
of raw chemical elements. even the
nitrogen of the air, for their nourish-
ment. Their wants are few, they are
harder and tougher than anything
else, and they reproduce at tremend-
Gus speed. Perhaps bacteria may be
the last things left on the earth when
the sun cools off. These ideas have
suggested to some that the spaces
between the stars, nearly devoid of
light and certainly devoid Of heat and
air, may nevertheless be streWn with
bacteria or the spores Of something
like bacteria, which have spread life
about from world to world, like seeds
drifting about in air.

Milady's mood may change to a

gown, but, unfortunately, it is not
possible so easily to change the physi-
cal imperfections that are concealed
by daytime frocks. They become glar-

VOLS7EAD OPPOSES
 RUBBING ALCOHOL
Claims It Is Prohibited Under
 Present Dry Laws

St. Paul, Minn., Feb. P-A move 10 stop the manufacture and sale of body rub alcohol throughout the United States. has been started by Andrew J. Volstead, author of the prohibition enforcement amend ment.
 MT. Volstead. who now is legal adviser of tho northwest prohibition enforcement division, left late last night for Washington where, it was reported. he would present the mat ter to prohibition officials.
 Contonding that regulations of the department of internal revenue, under which body rub alcohol is manufactured and sold, were nulli- fled and revoked in their entirety with the advent of the national pro- hibition law, Mr, Volstead seeks to have the permit law declared void, The permits are issued under for mula number 9 by the department at Washington.
 The law, Mir. Volstead declared in federal court here yesterday, was passed before the prohibition act named after him.
 A decision upholding Mir. Vol stcad's contention woulG mean the automatic revocation of thousands of permits in the United States in volving millions of dollars in In vested capital.
 Besides the possible stamping out Of means of redistiling this legal" alcohol into form for alleged illegal use. the decision would moan the aholishment of rub alcohol for in dustrial purposes, in trade uses, in cluding the manufacture Of per ! fumes and motion picture film. Mir. Volstcad launched his attack on body rub alcohol during Q fed cral court hearing in which the owners sock 10 recover seized ship lments on grounds that sale and 1 shipment was legal,
 It was Mir Nolstcad's first import ant venture in tho courts since be- coming it's legal adviser of the northwest division. It followed his announcement recently before thc national convention of tho onti-sa-
 loon league in Chicago that "thore are many teeth in the prohibition

THEQLOGIAN TALKS
 ON IDEAS OF GOp
Says Hebrews Have Greatest
 Genius for Religion

Professor A. C. Purdy of Hartford Theological seminary stated In q lecture last night to Protestant teachers Of religion at the South Congregational church that the man-like conception of God held by the ancient Hebrews was a strength as well as a weakness. He said: The early Greeks started with similar ideas of God; but later they emptied these ideas of all man-likc qualities and arrived at an abso- lute as their best conception of God. Men cannot worship an absolutue; and so the Greeks proved them selves 10 be less in religious genius than the Hebrews. The latter kept their man-like conception of God, but continued to refine it till they arrived at the idea of personality in God. Today the world bows be- fore the Hebrews as the race with the greatest genius for religion"
 Fifty teachers came out to hear Professor Purdy in spite of the storm, He spoke of the ideas of God found in the earliest biblical material. This was the first of q series of four lectures on the sub feet. "Finding God in the Bible" Mr, Purdy showed how the Hebrews had progressed with the idea of God from crude ideas of God as limited 10 q particular trihe or na- ton, Gods country" God thought of as q physical man with eyes, ears noso and most of the vices and vir- tues of man; from many gods to ono true God. The prophets taught inc people that God had personal ity: that he was a moral being of tho highest and best kind.

TRAFFIC SIGNALS
 ADOPTED BY BOARD
Large Lights to Be Used in
 Center Of City

After experimenting with various traffic lights for over a year, the po- lice board decided last night to pur- chase two lights, and and operators tower, from the General Electric company, which will cost approxi. mately $,2SS. The decision was reached after a moving picture of the American Bobby was shown operating on the streets of Buffalo, x. Y, when the board held an execu- tive session at which the relative merits of the various traffic lights were discussed.
 These two lights will be placed on the center where the present lights are operated. It is pointed out that the new signals will have larger lights which can bo more easily seen by motorists, and that the cost of operation will be 1-3 as much as the present system. It is expected that the new lights will be in opera ton within three weeks of the time that the common council approves the purchase. The money has al- ready been allowed the board by the 1 board of finance.
 Representatives were present from the General Electric and the AmCri- can Bobby companies. Each spoke relative to the merits of their lights
 At the executive meeting. Com. missioner Edwin A. Parker said that , he thought the Bobby. which al present Is being tried out at Wcst Main and South High streets, is toe l insignificant to command respect
 He stated that he thought a large light such as the one the board de. { cided to buy, will be more suitabl,
 to the City's needs.
