Thirty-five years ago John
w. Williams came to the States
from his native Finland. A
sailor, he left the boat in Mo
bile and came over to Pasca-
goula with the intention of
signing on another boat.
Hearing that there were some
Finnish families in Kreole he
went to investigate and has
stayed here ever since. He has
never been back to Finland.
In January, 1912, he started
to work for the company. Work
ing with the engineers he help
ed to survey the ground for the
original plant. Since that time
he has worked in several de :
partments and is now a sheet
metal worker.
In 1923 he married Mrs. Ma
tilda Elizabeth Koski. They
live in Kreole where they own
their own home and Mr. Will
liams is a member of the Fin
nish Lutheran church.

science of biome, as to all other
science must be taken the con-
ception that nothing is due to
chance or whim. Whatever oc-
ours comes as the result of mo-
tive forces. Could we know and
estimate these forces we should
have. so far as our estimate is
accurate and our logic perfect,
the gift of prophecy. Knowing
the law and knowing the facts,
we should fortell the results. To
be able to do this in some de-
gree is the art of life.
The study of biome centers
about the theory of descent, the
belief that organs and species as
we know them are derived from
other and often simpler forms
by processes of divergence and
adaptation. This theory is now
the decided central avis of all
biological Investigations in all it's
branches, from ethics to histo-
logy from anthropology to bac-
teriology. 1t is now therefore a
fundamental principle of the
science biome (biometrics), that
every structure and every func-
ton today finds its meaning in
some condition or in some event
of the past.
1t might seem a small matter
to draw a line between plants
and animals. Most any one can
tell pig from a tomato. Still it
is impossible to assign any alb
solute distinctive character
which will divide the one from
the other, i. e. divide the one
mode of life from the other. The
difficulty of defining an animal
increases with our knowledge of
its nature. This borderland has
been hotly contested in trying to
divide plant and animal life
among naturalists as many a dis
puted frontier between adjacent
nations. However, a greater diff
fiCulty arises in attempting tC
flb its precise limits. 1t is a much
easier task to note the relation
between minerals, plants and an
lmalS than to try to separate
them, so we will leave them as
they were all created.

WISE . or
OTHERWISE
By E. o. BOND

The greatest reward for a job
we'll done is to be the man who
did it.
The more stupid we are, the
less patience we have with the
stupidity of others.
Grit destroys machines but it
makes men.
Most of the shadows of life
are caused by people standing in
their own sunshine
When you pass out the milk of
human kindness, don't skim it.
1t takes brains to start things,
but it is real work that finishes
them.
A real friend is a person who
knows all about you and is still
your friend.
No man ever pushed himself
forward by patting himself on
the back.
Little courtesies make life a
lot sWeeter. Bigger courtesies
make life more noble.
Many a key to success is left
to rust in the lock.
Mother nature very seldom
makes fool. She just furnishes
the material and lets the other
fellow finish the job.
Remember it isn't likely the
boss will be a crank if you are
a self-starter.

THE POETS CORNER
"A Stranger"

One Sunday morning Pafson Brown
Looked up and kindly said
Miss Jones is very sick today.
Won't someone teach instead?
For moment there was silence
And you could not hear sound
For Miss Jones' class was hard to teach
And no teacher could be found.
But stranger entered quietly
Said ''Pll teach for you today
I've often taught class before
But that's for you to say.
The young folks said 60 right ahead
They thought We'll have some fun
And after they some pranks had played
He'd sure be glad to run.
But the stranger with quiet smile
Just raised his hands to Heaven
And thanked Our Father up above
For the great love He has given.
He started with the Golden Text
Twas Jesus died to save
And as he pictured Calvary
That class sure did behave.
For as he spoke they all could see
The Christ who died to set them free
To give them everlasting life
And be they stay in time of strife.
And as that stranger left the church
They wished he could have taught them more
The parson gave the closing hymn
Behold A Stranger at the Door,"

By BISHOP BATES

The story Of Wildlife begins
long before there was life on this
planet. In dramatic retrospect,
we see how wildlife on our
lands, in our lands, was formed
and started, how it developed,
how it appeared to our early
settlers who first trod our virgin
continent and finally how it ap-
pears today. What we see today
is the results of a few past de
cades. From the beginning,
through to the end, throughout
the whole story emerges more
and more sharply the fact that
our continent is all one body,
that plant, animal, human, Soc
ial, economic groWths are prod
ucts of the same soil. We cannot
write or talk long without saying
something others don't believe.
Others cannot write or talk long
without saying something we
do not believe. SO we wish you
to accept no views of ours unless
you reach it through your own
investigation. What we hope for
is to have you think Of these
things that we are writing about
and find out about them for
yourselves.
For many reasons, the name,
"biome" with its technically eX-
act meaning, | prefer the phrase
organic evolution, as, unlike the
latter, it involves no philosophic
assumption. 1t is a we'll known
fact that organs and organisms
do change from day to day, and
place to place, and generation to
generation is an observed fact,
which now no one can hardly
admit of no doubt. The orderly
arrangement of my knowledge
of this process constitutes a
branch of science. For me the
use of the term evolution in re-
gard to the process of biome, is
to use a philosophical term in
connection with group of
scientific facts, for evolution
means unrolling, and it gives one
the thought that something that
was previously hidden is now
brought to light. This leads one,
naturally to the philosophical
suggestion whatever is evolved
must be previously involved. In
short, evolution belongs to phil
osophy and not to science. That
species do change their structure
with time or space is a matter of
common scientific observation.
With the lapse of time, genera
ton following generation, direc-
tive influences combine to mod
ify the line descent.
With the separation of individ-
ual biome by barriers of land and
water and varying climate, diff
fering lines of descent are
brought into existence. Speaking
now broadly / find as fact that
transmutation of species through
the geologic ages has been ac-
companied by increasing diver
gence of type, by increased spec
ialization of certain forms, and
by closer adaptation to condi-
tions of life on the part Of the
forms most highly specialized,
the more perfect adaptation and
more elaborate specialization be-
ing associated with the greatest
variety or variation in environ
ment. In this view, the transmit
tation of species is not merely
an observed process but a prim-
tive necessity involving in the
very organization of life itself.
