Arthur Brisbane: I TN deep piles of sand thrown up along the shores of a lake, long vanished, Roy Chapman Andrews' of the American Museum of Natural History expedition finds what is believed to be "the earliest animal of human shape." Those "dune dwellers of Shabarack" wore ornaments made from pieces of the shell of dinosaur eggs.

The dinosaurs had vanished long before the dune dwellers appeared. Scientists affirm that man first appeared on this earth in Asia. Some of them say that the first men, Mongolians, had tangs for ancestors. They give for grandfather to the Caucasian race, chimpanzee, a more intelligent animal. You need not believe them.

The people of America have about doubled their incomes in a few years. The cash that Americans earn, or receive from investments, rents, from inherited property, etc. is not far from HUNDRED THOUSAND MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR, or almost a thousand dollars for every man, woman and child. What a wonderful prize this netion would be for any Asiatic conqueror, flying through the air ransoming the cities. And what a ransom the cities would pay.

It would be cheaper to buy enough flying machines. Berlin supplies a modern crime. A young woman very, household of Murnau, greatest German director of moving pictures, is murdered by her lover, a Russian at her own request. She wrote to a friend that she wanted to die because she was "broken by drugs and riotous living." The police who arrested the murderer were protected by shirts of mail, steel helmets and carried but. let proof shields.

And Herr Murnau, stepping from a machine that had just brought him from Sweden, arrived in time to see the battle. That is modern crime, in modern civilization. When is a man A Civil War veteran of Illinois, aged 88, is told by the judge that a man 88 "has no business to get married." A Fennsylvania man of 91 settles property on his children, then marries a woman of 45, who says new husband is "old in years Jacob Wettler, Swiss embroiderer, only 74 years old, shot himself, saying life wasn't worth while at that age, "When he is forsaken, withered and shaken, what can an old man do but die?" Some men are as old at 50 as anybody can be. Moltke at 90 was younger than many of the junior officers that stood in stiff respect about him. A man is old when his mind stops working along new lines.

A French scientist, convinced that diving at a high altitude is dangerous, took to the top of Mont Blanc a healthful young squirrel in 8 cage, with a revolving wheel in it. At a low level the squirrel turned the wheel 6,500 times every twenty-four hours, and only 900 times at the top of Mont Blanc. This is interesting, but doesn't prove that human beings cannot accustom themselves to high altitudes and benefited Women of Thibet carry heavy loads over passes of the Himalayan mountains at heights that make it necessary for Europeans to have artificial oxygen supply. The marvelous thing about man is his capacity to adapt himself to the equator or the north pole, the sea level or the mountain top. This country settles its debt with Belgium, and Uncle Sam, pictured in European papers as the great money lending ogre, is not such an awful ogre after all.

We give Belgium two years in which to pay her debt of $727,000,000. The interest rate is low, per cent, and on the money we lent Belgium before the armistice there is to be NO interest charge. Harvey S. Firestone, manufacturer of tires, has contracted for a million-acre rubber plantation in Liberian, be A formed $100,000,000 to grow an corpora- adequate rubber supply for the United States manufacturers. That is the kind of "reaching out" that the country needs.

We build and use 30,000,000 rubber tires a year and be independent of foreign control. An ardent British radical who thinks he believes in communism urges men British army and navy to mutiny, "throw ff their chains' and take the government from the tyrants that control it. not throw chains because British soldiers, and sailors will they wear none. Outside of Russia the world at large is farther from communism then it was before the war. And its a long way from it in Russia.
