ROSEBURG, OREGON,
THE MYSTERY OF LIFE
From the tune when people lived in caves, there, have
always 3x:en certain men who chose to cut loose front: all
divine writings and revelations and seek, for themselves,
the secret of the origin and purpose of life. Their .search
iiiRs have added a good deal to the si-m total of human
knowledge, to be sure. ISut the plain, matter of fact ex
planation they seek has always eluded them. Now comes
Professor C. Lovatt Kvans, one of England's foremost sci
entists, to announce that the mystery of life's origin and
purpose will never be solved by any scientist. Always, he
says, there will remain an ultimate riddle that no laboratory
worker can answer. Perhaps this is because people, after
all, aren't really matter of fact or commonplace at all. Study
your fellow man in the mass, day by day, and you may see
nothing extraordinary about him. He is, at times, quite
mean and blind and selfish and ignorant and cowardly. You
are almost persuaded that there is no trace of divinity in
him that he is, after all, only an animated clod. Then, if
you look closely you, begin to see things. You see, beside
the ignoble qualities, strange capacities for sacrifice, en
durance, courage, fidelity, hope. You see a mother in the
slums starving herself to provide a little extra food for the
child. Y'ou see an underpaid factory drudge working his
life away so that people who depend on him may live. You
see a Jiian with a vision giving up riches and honor in or
drr to make the world a better place for men and women
who are not yet born. You see men fighting poverty, sick
ljess and hunger in order to pursue some glimpse of truth.
You see men weaving songs and snaring beauty in a net of
ifords while cities go down in flames about their ears,
nd, now and then, you hear battle trumpets and see flags
waving, and thousands upon thousands of men step up,
without hesitation, to die at someone else's bidding, in the
tfague hope that somehow the world will be made a bit bet
ter thereby. Will you keep on looking, then, for a matter of
fact explanation? You will not-net .f you are wise. You
win recognize, insioaa, a great
distant flames.
I Doch it occur to yon that tliere ia anything in the loat
peculiar about this 'VIoanup" that federal prohibition aces
i(re about to make in Philadelphia? This nvm Golding. seiL
there to take personal charge, is a go-getter. Not long ago
l)c laid many liroadway night clubs low. A little before that
he, caused the indictment of more than 100 persona in a vaU
beer ring conspiracy in Cleveland. Unquestionably, he's a:i
able man. Whtm he went to Cleveland no one knew it until
the indictments were returned. Similarly, when ho went
lo New York he entered the
........ 4l . ,
until he had all the evidence,
with a fanfare of trumpets. His arrival is blazoned all
over the front pages. He gives profuse interviews announc
ing that he will drive out all bootleggers. A brass band
wouldn't have drawn more attention. If there is a single
liquor seller in Philadelphia who doesn't know Golding is
in town he must be deaf, dumb and blind especially dumb.
So, wo ask you : (hies it strike you that there is anything pe
culiar about the gentlemen's visit to Philadelphia?
