Marriage to a Genius

AC4 AN@S w
A nen and ink sketch of Virginia GLENN, the girl who
became the wife of Edgar Allan Poe, shared misery and
hardship with him and finally died Of cold, hunger ana
general impoverishment, has been discovered IN the east;
and it is given q strange, romantic 1nterest Oy ue oe"e1
that it was drawn by Poe himself.
There are other sketches with it, all supposedly drawn
by Poe: but it is this one that~draws peoples afternoon.
It shows a face that is calm, peaceful and happy; II roe
himself actually drew it he must have done 1t before
privation came to wreck Virginia Clemm's Afe-or per-
hans. like the genius he was, he looked beyond those
things and sketched, not the girl that really existed, but
the oirl that might have existed If the fates had been a
bit kinder.
If this. portrait was really the work Of Poe, it is an
extremely valuable discovery; and this is true, not merely
because Poe was a great poet. but also because Virginia
GLENN is such a pathetic and appealing figure. HOW we
would like to know more about her! How inoeeo' we
would like to see, not q portrait Of her by Poe, but q por-
trait of Poe drawn by her!
For Virginia GLENN suffered that strangest OF fates
that can befall a woman: she married an authentic
genius.
Such marriages-geniuses being extremely rare-are
not common; and the girl who gets into one OF them Is
apt to find that the world is a place filled with wonder
and terror, unpredictable and uncomfortable. But 1t may
be. after all our pity for Virginia Clenm's hard life has
been expended. that she did not need quite as much
sympathy as the world has given her.
To be sure, she suffered the physical torments Of cold
and hunger. She was oppressed by poverty throughout
her short married life. She died very young. But 1t may
be that it was worth it.
For. after all, she lived with a man who had eyes that
could see and q voice that could sing. Gazing into the
circumscribed world that was America q century ago,
he was able to find beauty and mystery and passion so
freely that his songs and his stories are still alive today,
and will live for many more generations. What girl would
not be willing to go hungry now and then If the man of
her heart could create, from the light in her own eyes. =
thing like "Annabel Lee?
Marrying a poet, even a poor one, even a poet who does
not know that he is q poet, is risky business. Marrying
a genuinely great poet Is a sure road to disaster. But It
is not the worst fate conceivable. It may mean sorrow
and misery and heartbreak-but it viii also, now and
then, mean ecstasy.

The business Of selling petroleum has become chaotic
from over competition. There are too many gasoline
stations, too much duplication Of service and too much
price cutting by dealers. Oh is one Of the greatest and
most necessary of American industries and Is entitled
to fair and intelligent public consideration in its endeavor
to work out It's problems.

Not Quite So Certain

DR.. Robert A. Milikan, who surprised the scientific
world some time ago by discovering the existence Of mys-
FERROUS cosnaic rays. now announces that be believes these
rays can be put to work.
Finishing a summer devoted to the study Of these rays.
d.. Minikan says that the rays can be used in q new kind
Of barometer; 50 that the science Of weather forecasting
can be extended.
It Is interesting to think that this strange force which
was undreamed Of a few years ago will shortly be in
harness as prosaically as any waterfall in q mill town;
but much more interesting are the attempts Of various
scientists to explain just what these cosmic rays may be.
Dr.. Miuikan believes that they come from the tremen-
dous energies expended in the creation Of matter some
where in the profound abyss Of space. He also believes
that the rays themselves are ether waves Of frequencies
= thousand times those Of X-rays.
However. there are other scientists who believe that
the rays come, not from the creation Of matter, but from
the humiliation Of matter, probably in the centers Of dis
tant stars. Furthermore. they doubt that they are ether
waves at all, maintaining instead that they are high
speed ~electrons.
All Of this, Of course, is quite meaningless to most Of
us. It is beyond our capacity to get more than a glim-
mering Of the nature Of these rays. II they can be put
to work in barometers. well and good: we shall bother
our heads no more with them.
However, this conflict Of expert opinion is worth think
Ing about. For 1t Is quite clear that what has happened
4 simply this: Science has stumbled upon a new mys-
terry and Is not In the least clear in its mind what this
mystery may be or what may be the cause Of it. There
hre some deep implications in that situation.
Until comparatively recently, science has tended to be
dogmatic. II has worn an air Of ~ponderous assurance.
and 1t has talked largely Of scientific truths" But in
late years this dogmatism and this assurance have begun
TO evaporate slightly. The scientist who a few decades
ago was quite confident that the universe would soon be

As 2 result, this man-is-a-s s-machine talk is al

And so, unmolested, Tarzan passed from the camp
of the Abyssinans, from which the din of conflict
followed him deep into the jungle. Back to the
spot where he had left Werper went the ape-man,
ioy in his heart now where fear and sorrow had
recently reigned. But Werper was gone and Tarzan
convinced that the man had purposely eluded
him. So straight homing pigeons the two made
their way toward the ruin and desolation that had
once been the center Of their happy lives.

 Hagelove's men took the tug 10 the Lorain coast guard station, but announced it would be taken to Cleveland later in the day and it's cargo of sealed liquor turned over to federal authorities. Hageloyc, who operates directly under Lieutenant Martin J. Rasmus-
