CIVILIZATION OR SAlls:aI
By Charles Sickle

1t Is one Of the shocking things IN
this topsy turvy world to awake to The
fact that there is mere crust be-
tween civilization and savagerv This
mas been demonstrated in the action of
the Nazis in their treatment of HELPLESS
people of other nations, a n d which
threatens to extend to many other coun-
tries. Their brutality has transcribed
the acts of precivilization pagans The
amazing thing is that this has been done
by those who regard themselves as
super men," at time when the pttv
OF the civilized world has been increas-
ingly stirred in behalf of all oppressed
and depressed peoples.
We thought we were getting some
where in our progress toward human
kindness and tender mercy. Then
suddenly we discover that the beast has
torn loose, tearing and devouring and
waIlowing in the blood of human beings
And now the brutal war is on. on all
fronts, nothing barred. Anything goes
while the rest of the world stands
aghast. The victims haven't even the
chance that was given to men during
the World War, for then the contest
ants on both sides had weapons which
they might use in self defense.
Meanwhile the rest of the world seems
to stand helpless. Even the Demo
cracies are like sheep in the presence
Of a "DictStor Wolf" It is a question
as to how long this situation can con-
tnue. 1t seems inevitable that some
Where something must break out which
will destroy this monstrous creation Of
a disordered mind. If there is still
justice in the world if there is a Force
powerful enough to subdue even this
Incarnation of the Beast then there is
hope for civilization Of this we may
be sure-it will require the united
protests Of men and women of every
race, creed and color, and the rising
wrath of all right thinking people
everywhere.

BwLILLIAN COX ATHEY.

This summer when you visit the
seashore, you may have flrst-hand
look at brittle star. They are
known as the ophiurans and they
differ from the starfishes, whose
arms are extensions of the body,
with the viscara extending part way
into them, for the brittle stars have
q central body disk with five slender
arms attached to the margin of the
body. Those seeing brittle stars for
the first time have mistakenly called
them sea-spiders. The word brittle
is based on the ease with which the
arms may be broken of. These
taper to a fine point and are usually
curled at the end. The Spines do
not possess suckers. They spring
from the margins Of the arms, and
are used when the brittle star wishes
to 60 for q walk.
So far no eye specks have been
discovered on the brittle star. They
must be there, because the creature
is very aware of danger when 1t ap-
proaches, and it knows how to re-
treat with swiftness and dispatch.
Travelling is accomplished by
means of the arms, which are cap
able of carrying their owner quickly
in a direction calculated to cover
distance in as short time as pos
Sible
The egg sacs are situated between
the arms. and open by Sits on the
under side which are to be found
where the arms join the disk. The
water flows in and out of these sacs
or pouches and it is believed that
these also have respiratory and ex-
cretory duties.
Brittle stars are hard to find.
They are very shy creatures. Some
times some species may be found
at low-water mark under stones, or
perhaps in clusters Of mussels.
Again, many have been discovered
in seaweeds which have been cast
up from the deep water when a
storm occurred.
You have some trouble capturing
one of them. They do not intend
to be made prisoner, and begin at
once to cast of pieces of their arms.
If caution bids them to dismember

FORD AND AIRPLANES

Could Henry Ford produce 1000
planes day at River Rouge? He
could if all designs were alike,
adapted to present production meth
DDS and there were not constant de-
sign changes. The success of Henry
Ford in producing 10000 automo-
biles a day was his invention of
uniformity of design and inter-
changeability of parts. Under exist
ing conditions of fiux and uncertain
ty, Mr.. Ford could no more produce
1000 planes a day than he could
produce 10000.
There is another terrible bottle
neck-impossible military standards
of perfection which take no stock of
our facilities for production. That
stopped us often in the World war.
Henry Ford, in creating the first
Tin Lizzie that put America on
wheels, had the genius to see exact
" this fault. He built a car that
would do all that was required of it
in 90 per cent Of cases, but which
sacrificed no more to theoretical
perfection than was necessary to do
the work required and meet the re-
uuirement of price and production.
Charlie Nash did the same thing.
