young high school professor, chimcd in and said: I'm Violating that law every day"
 Originally "Homc- Talent Show"
 Somebody. thirsting for some cx- citcmcnt, suggested trial. Some body else popped up and offered to go on Scopes bond. Scopes was shy at first, but finally consented to q test case. So it started. just as home-talcnt show. Then the World Fundamentalist convention, meeting at Memphis. heard about it and en- gagged Bryan to defend the faith. The answer to that was Clarence Darrow, who rushed down from Chicago to defend Scopes-and the devil, 100. as many saw It.
 Everything in Dayton dates from that trial ;the town folks still talk about it just as though it happened yesterday. They tell you of the army of 900 newspaper men who swarmcd here, how the streets were roped off for the thousands of visi- tors. how newspaper correspondents telegraphed 30ooo0 words daily out of Dayton of that hot afternoon when Darrow .cross- examined Bryan on his faith in the Bible, of Bryan S death a few days later at the scene of his Last Triumph.
 Sees Divine Hand
 "Doc' Robinson, a staunch Pres byterian, sees the hand of Provi. dence guiding it all
 "Yes.' he tells you as he mixes another drink at his soda fount 'thcre was purpose behind it all the way through. It didn't just happen that we got to talking ii in the drug store that day. that the World Fundamentalist convention was meeting in Memphis just at tho right time, that Bryan came here tt defend the Bible. No, sir; all 0 that didn't just happen I The old southern home wher Bryan died in his sleep that Sunda afternoon just after the trial i visited by numerous tourists.
 Just once has Clarence Darrov returned to Dayton. En route iron Florida about two years ago, h drove up to Doc" Robinson's dru store and got out. A crowd col lectcd. for Darrow, despite his be liefs. is well liked personally i Dayton.

There was a knock at the door.

There was a knock at the door.
 The census taker had arrived. The usual questions were being ask ed and some of them had been an- swered by the master of the house. Are you cmployed?" sweetly ask ed the young woman with the big book and the fountain pen.
 Nav, aint got no job" growled the lord of the manor.
 Are you seeking employment? 9" the census takor propounded the next question.
 yeah" grunted the head of the family, know where I can get a job?"
 She was taking the census, not running an employment agency, so she asked the next question.
 How long have you been seek ing employment?
 The head of the family pondered. He wrinkled his brows and scratched his head. The family cat, sensing that a delicate situation had de- yelopcd, scurried to cover.
 The census takcr waited, pen poised in air.
 The boss of the house decided to answer. "Eleven years,' he an- nounced.
 This happened in a town in Hart ford county not far away.
 New Britain people are courteous and intelligent. Attorney William M. Harney, who has charge of the Hartford county census bureau says census takers have had less trouble in New Britain than anywhere else in the county.
 It is likely the work will be com. pleted by Tuesday of next week, Mir Harney says.
 New Britain is giving us excel lent cooperation and we have ha, few if any complaints from youl city," he told a Herald representa- tive.
 Asked how he accounted for the unusual cooperation here he attri' buted it to two factors, a high cali bre of residents and the fact tha Cc1SuS WI hlh6 oiloliH the people who speak tongues othel than English are familiar with theil native languages. You have som, accomplished linguists there," ht added
 MT. Harney was unable today tt tell what the final figures in New Britain will show, nor just what per centage of the work has been com pleted.

Foresees Journey to Moon In Rocket
 Propelled By Dynamite By Year 2O50

New York, April 1o P-Dr. John .. Stewart, associate professor of astronomical physics at Princeton university, believes that dozen ecadcs hence man may travel to he moon.
 Easing his calculations on the ,roSress in the rate of travel made Tt eApoundcd his theory in an ad- ress before the Brooklyn Institute ,f Arts and Sciences last night.
 By 1850, he said, speed of l. 200 miles an hour will be possible md by the year c050 man will have leNiscd a means of travelling at the rate of 50.0oO miles an hour, the pccd necessary to make the jour lcy to the moon.
 Dynamite for Fuel?
 To attain such speed fuel capable of releasing many times the energy obtainable from coal, gaso- line or dynamite must be made available for engineering purposes, he said.
 He described a possible ship for a lunar voyage as a sphere bristling with cannon. which would be pro- pclled into space after the manner of a rocket.
 Such a ship he said would be | about 11o feet in diameter and weigh about 10000 metric tons. Ii would carry a crew of GO and 2 group of scientists as passengers. | Would Start from Desert
 Starting from a desert where tho | discharge of the propelling cannor could do no harm, Dr. Stewart said the moon-ship would take off abou a half hour before noon and abou three days before the full moon.
 In six minutes the sphere would be 1o miles up and would shoot ou of the earth's atmosphere at th' rate of 200 miles an hour. Ate two hours and % minutes, he est mated, discharges from the earth ward cannon could be stopped an, the ship would travel toward tn moon at the rate of 190 miles minute.
 Cannon to Ease Fall
 At the height of 1S.2oo miles which would be attained in = hours the craft would cross the moons or bit. Cannon would be fired to cush ion the drop of the sphere onto tn moons surface.
 The voyagers would find them selves on a satellite which is airles waterless and lifeless, pr. Stewal said. where days and nights are tw weeks long and where temperature range from 212 degrees fahrenhe at noon to the temperature of liqui air at midnight.
 Would Take Own Air
 Gravity on the moon being onl one sixth of that on the earth, me would be able to carry several hur dred pounds of apparatus to provid air and regulate the temperatur They would travel in garb similar diving suits, pr. Stewart said. The return would be made I shooting the sphere off the su !. face of the moon and navigating | back to earth by means of the cal non.
