SCIENTISTS AND THE SOUL

year ago when the British Association for the
advancement of Science met, its president Sir Arthur
Keith IN his inaugural address, rejected the idea of an
AFTER lie. The other day at Glasgow Scotland Sir
william Bragg, the present president of the same asso
cation, made his inaugural address and told his audi
ence quite positively that has soul that lives on
after physical death.
If there is neutral group in the organization the
next president should be elected from its ranks
Sir Williams statement is very simple. He says:
There who think that science is in
human. They speak as though students off modern
science would destroy reverence and faith. l do not
know how that be said Of the student who stands
daily in the presence of what seems to him to be the
infinite.
Science is so foolish as to throw away that in
which the slowly gathered wisdom of the ages is stored.
In this she is a conservative Of conservatives"
1t IS likely that people will sympathize with
Sir Williams belief than with Sir Arthur's. Most men
and wish to believe in soul and feel that there
are many evidences in support of their belief even
though there is yet no practical proof.

MUTISN

One of the finest things growing out of the Kel-
logg- BRAND peace treaty is the term 'mutsn This
word has been used by French newspapers to describe
Secretary Kelloggs policy of silence in connection with
the treaty He upset precedent and expectations by
refusing talk when he went to France to sign it.
His idea seemed to be that it time for deeds not
words He may also have had other of his
own public and personal for sitting tight and saying
nothing. The effect more impressive than any
speech he might have made.
Here is intriguing and precious word which is
unusual the virtue it signifies, and is worthy of
general adoption and What the present age
needs, perhaps than peace, is public and
private policy of mutsm. Indeed such policy might
be the most powerful contribution which could be made
to peace whether public or domestic.
1t is to be especially commended at public gather
ings. Doubtless there has to be kind of speak
ing wherever people assemble for any common pur-
pose. But there would be done if there
less talk, and the honors would probably go, rule
not to the loudest and longest speaker but the mutes
mutist.

Yet strangely enough, popular fear of is felt
the case before the war. The greater business
grows, the less fear it seems to inspire.
Two obvious reasons explain that Business is
better behaved than it in the old days, and people

Business behaves itself better because it pays to

they participate as investors and prof-sharers.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

Once upon time an Oak Trea

strong and straight tree. In the fail
it had on glossy brown leaves which
rustled in the wind. In the spring
the leaves were bright green.
But more than leaves grew on the
Oak Tree. There were acorns. which
were something like nut though
not many animals, unless perhaps
il might bc pigs, like to eat acorns.
Some kinds of acOrns are eaten by
squirrels, like Johnnie and Billie
Bushytail, but most acorns are too
bitter for any but pigs to eat.
- am going to have a lot OF
ccorns this year" said the OAK
Tree to Pine Tree which grew
near by.
Yes. there are many of them on
your branches,' said the Pine Tree
who grew on lis branches long,
sraly pine cones. No pine cones
aren't like ice-crram cones, though
they are much the same shape.
Early in the spring the acorns,
like the loay"s ON tire Oak Tree,
were green. But a. summer passed
and q, fail came the acorHs began
to turn brown and one sand to the

DOG BRINGS YOUTH
l6 MILES TO DOCTOR

MALTA-Clarence NltZ, IL
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Her
man Nitz, who live on the Will
liam Tressler place, 16 miles
southwest of Malta, was suffering
from an infection that developed
on his upper lip from a cold sore.
His condition might become dan
gerous in a few hours.
The family, however, was snow
bound and there was no way OF
communication with a doctor and
no way for a doctor to get out to
the Nitz home except under great
est difficulty.
Clarence got up early and hitch
ed his pet shepherd dag, Dick
to his bobsled. He started on the
long journey to Malta at 7:45. He
arrived in Malta at 1920, having
covered the Is miles in two hours
and IS minutes. Then, after re-
ceiving treatment he and Dick
posed for a picture and headed
back for home, expecting to make
the return journey in less time
than the trip in.
Clarence is very proud OF DICK
and yet Dick, as the News report
er saw him, was very modest,
taking everything for granted n
showing solicitude only for Clar-
ence. The feat of the dog over
the heavy snow, made slushy IN
many places by the warm wealth
er is considered remarkable by all
dog wne
Clarence says Dick has been
''broke" to harness about three
years and that on several occas-
ions he has driven three or four
miles but even on those compare
lively short drives he would rest
him.
