BEARDS, TEST TUBES AND SQUlBUELS Hand in hand, on the steep uphill climb to the Temple qf Universal Witidom go climbing Philosophy, Science and Invention. And there are moments when one is wickedly tempted to wonder if they'll ever nuike it. We are referring to recent kernels from the Nut of Knowledge that gentle men representing these three branches of education havu tossed to a hungry world as they pursued their arduous climb. In a recent magazine article, one of our prominent modern . philosophers gives out the suggestion that most men should die when they're U5. Man's at the peak of his power and action then) and letting him live on past it seems a shame. When they get to be 40, the writer asserts, men become but a reminiscence. The writer being M0 himself, perhaps we can discount his statement iis the left-over from a somewhat well-used mind, Well, a crumb is belter than nothing! ; Now, what is this from the field of Science? Well, it's just lliisi Apple Week to the contrary notwithstanding, Adam and Eve ale no apple at all ! It must have been an or ange or a banana, according to horticultural experts in the United States Department of Agriculture. Tho simple truth is that Eden was so hot that an apple couldn't have grown within 1000 miles of it, we're told. The Apple Week peo ple should never stand silently by and permit this orange and banana thing to gel around. Or, in retaliation, the Ap ple Week people might publish a bulletin, calling attention to the fact that really an apple is not. to be blamed after u for all this sweat of our brow. It was a couple of other fruits, it seems. The green-and-red popper people ought to do something about this, too. Whatever it was Adam and Eve ito, llicy must have thought it was hot enough' after they got through with it. Maybe it was a mangoe after all I We lire iiow about to get our daily reading in the field of inven tion'. An English wfr-nrd of the cogs and cams suffered with insomnia, but that was beforo he came to America and got his Jdea. lie discovered tlml the gentle rocking and undu lating (not to mention the brakes) of the trains lulled liim into-a deep slumber. ' Forthwith upon returning home he set about inventing a bed that went through the gelatinous mo tion? of an American Pullman. Now he cap sleep. If you can't sleep, look him up. Jir,ouiliia has been rocked from his doorstep and maybe lie can help you. Tho bed shouldn't cost; more than $1107 F. 0. B.. It's something no practical structural ironworker can be without. lOnward, toward tlie Temple of Universal Knowledge, thelAge is marching. Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle! J"lt won't b'j long-now" a common "saying going tho rounds that aptly applies to a demand that is going to be made on every city-in the slate of any con.setiuenco for a landing field for airplanes. Within the brief period of a few! months great impetus has been given to this mode of travel and tho wonder. id strides accomplished in the way of Hing distance flights, together with important improve ments for safety of these "air birds,'' it is only going to be a very short time until a lot of us fellows will be leaving the paved highways for u trip in the heavens. A landing fie1 is going to be of as much importance in our daily life as the present service station is to the tourist. Wo might as web conio to it, and thu sooner the.bell.er. lioseburg must be on the airplane ruute map with an adequate landing field. "Hardly anyone now believes that democracy is the final phase of governmental progress, and it hardly will List out the century. Abraham 'Lincoln's famous 'government of the people, by the people and for the people' is the mere claptrap of the demagogue." For this we are indebted to the Very Uoverend Dean Inge of London, sometimes called "the (lloomy Dean." Well, it's gloomy enough. Pet'haps the Dean hus!,ju.'tt slopped off his base a I rifle. Men u ho bc.'nme great in :i special line, sometimes make the greatest of asses when they make pronouncements in a field not their own. Now we have an electrical device that has more brains than the average man an invention that can ferret out diffi cult problems that the mind is unable to accomplish. Looks like easy times ahead for the fellow who doesn't know very lunch. e To date this city has not had a hingle crt.H1 of .infantile paralysis, a record which we hope can lie maintained until tho epidemic subsides.

Backed up to the curb was a truck, and in a doorway opposite was a huge packing caBe, at which a drayman tugged and pushed In futile efforts to budge it.; "Will vou allow mo to help you?" Inquired the benevolent old gentle-, man. j The drayman paused, wiped the I perspiration from his flushed face, ( and answered with a grin: "I've got . this far and now it's stuck In the i door. I'd cure be obliged to you, sir, ir you'd lend a hand." j "All right, you climb over and, get on the other side and I'll help you from this side." Whereupon I they both fell lustily to the task, j flut In vain. After five minutes of , strenuous exertion the box had not. ben moved bo much as an Inch. "HnrnVot job .1 ever tackled," , g-sprd tho drayman, pausing for, bra'h and peering over the top of i the box at his flushed anil perspir-l Inn helper on the outsido. "She's too heavy for us," admit-1 ted Iho B. O. G., sadly. .."I'm! afraid we'll never be able to get: her Inside that door." "Get her inside!" yelled the dray-j man. .."Nell's bens, you poor nui, I was tryln' to pit her out!" Things are gittin' so dcrn tuff nowadays that a foller ain't hardly gotta stick to his back. ..'
