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.

To date this city has not had a hingle crt.H1 of .infantile

A benevolent old gentleman, In
the course of his morning "consti.
tutional," came upon a scene
which immediately aroused his al
truistic Impulses. 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
