Chimpa,zee Proved He
Had Curiosity, Anyway

Some time ago scientist was anS-
ious to discover whether chimpanzees
possessed any power Of reasoning. In
the cage Of one of them he hung a
banana out of the apes reach. He also
placed in the cage two or three wooden
boxes. The chimpanzee took long
while to think 1t out, eventually he
placed one box on top of another,
stood on the pile and reached the
banana.
Then the scientist gave him another
fest, but 1t occurred to him that the
chimpanzee might think more quickly
If he was not being observed. The CHM
panzee was placed in q room, and the
scientist, going outside, put his eve to
the keyhole to watch the proceedings.
He was amazed to find that he was
looking into another eye. The chin
panzee had got there first!
Chimpanzees seem to have some
kind Of reasoning power, and many
believe that If taken In hand young
enough they could be educated to a
remarkable degree.

Elson says: IAN ADLER body of
statesmen has not assembled in mod
ern times than that which made our
Constitution in 1884, nor has any as
sembly met with truer motives, or pro-
duced grander result. The whole
number of delegates was So, and there
was scarcely man among them who
had not been distinguished in the state
or in the field, who had not been a
governor, member of congress, or a
commander In the army. A few had
served In the Stamp Act congress in
1765, others had set their names to
the immortal Declaration In 1776, and
one had framed the plan of union at
Albany In 1864. Could these men have
looked into the future they would have
seen two of their own number become
Presidents of the United States, one a
Vice President and many others foreign
ministers, members of the Supreme

OLDEST FOUND By 200 YEARS

LONDON-Sitting in q fireproof
room guarded with steel door and
each window protected by iron bars,
Chester Beatty, American collector,
revealed number of glass frames
containing papyri, said to constitute
the oldest biblical manuscript In the
world.
Beatty has found a series Of papyri
relating to the Bible and said to be
200 years older than anything else of
the sort yet discovered.
Impressive at first simply because of
their great age, the yellow-brownish
skillfully woven texture Of reeds called
"papyrl," which the ancients used for
paper, seemed to become awesome up
on closer examination.
wonderful, isn't It," Beatty cx-
claimed pointing to the series Of char
acters inscribed on the papyri in black
as clearly as though they were writer
80 minutes instead of over 80 centuries
before.
1t is expected that the aged manu-.
script will throw new light on many
portions of the Bible which now art
interpreted in different ways.

Means Wasted Effort

The old expression carrying Goals
to Newcastle" is thus explained :
Newcastle Is center of the British
coal trade, and great port for the
shipping OF it. To "carry Goals to
Newcastle is waste of labor, fu-
tile, or unnecessary effort, an effort
to supply need already well sup
piled. The phrase Is Of Seventeenth
century origin, or perhaps older But
similar proverbs exist In many Ian
guages There is one in French about
carrying water to the river" An
cient Greece has one about taking
owls to Athens-Athenlan coins be-
ing stamped with the owl; and an

Would the author Of the article in
last weeks forum, in case of sickness
prefer the "young, enthusiastic gradu-
ate" from medical school, to the ex-
perienced middle-aged practitioner?
Would the author, desiring legal ad-
vice employ the young, enthusiastic

perienced veteran of many legal
battlesp So we might go on using
the different professions as examples.
I believe that the teacher has as

schools all over the U. S. where teach

According to the writer in the article

tical measures.
a change is necessary by which we resummon prop
share of initiative and responsibility, which the
very essence of our government demands shall rest
upon the states and local authorities. That change
must avoid the return of the saloon.
It is my conviction that the nature of this charge
and upon which all reasonable people can find
ground, is that each state shall be given the
right to deal with the problem it may determine
but subject to absolute guarantees in the constitu
ton of the United States to protect each state from
interference and invasion by its neighbors and that
in no part of United States shall there be return
of the saloon system with its inevitable political and
social corruption and its organized interference with
other states.
American craftsmanship is capable of working
out such solution and making it effective.
Many of the strongest national temper
ance organizations of the United States, fol
lowing this statement have pledged their or
CARNATIONS to the support of Mr.. Hoover in
the present campaign. They are fearful
that the Democratic platform, if enacted into
law, means the return of the American
saloon.
In discussing Mr.. Hoover's address,
Mark Sullivan, than whom there is not an
ADLER political writer or judge of political con-
ditions in the United States in copyrighted
story, pronounces the address as the most
mastery, frank and logical acceptance speech
ever delivered.
AS was to be expected the address did
not set well with the leading Democrats,
and in their bewilderment much fault has
been found with it, particularly with his
dealing with the prohibition question. United
States Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia, in
sists that Mr.. Hoover's stand bore resem-
blance to prohibition amendment he con-
templated introducing in the Senate Sen
ator Jos. Robinson, of Arkansas, insists that
Mr.. Hoover has not made himself clear on
the Prohibition question. Both are avowedly
dry.
A day or two ago Norman Thomas,
former Presbyterian pastor, and at present
Socialist candidate for President, does not
agree with Mr.. Hoover from any angle. He
did predict, however, that it will be hard for
the Democrats to make any fundamental
criticism which will be honest.
AS Mark Sullivan we'll says, "new
Hoover was born with this speech of &C
ceptance."
