GLIMPSING THE UNIVERSE (At the opening session of the National Academy of Science, astronomers stated that the latest powerful telescope had disclos ed the possible exstence of 1,000,000 universes instead of one. New observation devices have disclosed a galaxy of spiral nebulae, each an "island nebulae", distant more than 10,000 light years from the earth and a light year approximates, six trillion million years. In other words the universe is disclosed as being ten times greater in volume than previously believed and it is probable that further improved observation devices will disclose it as many times greater illimitable. The milky way, which has been considered as our special universe, is comprised of three billion stars of which our sun is the nearest one. It takes light about 300,000 years to cross from one side to the other and light travels 180,000 miles a second. And our own world is not of sufficient magnitude or importance to count as one of the three billion stars. The mind cannot comprehend the infinite which does not deter man from attempting to define it nor can the human mind comprehend the universe, which is merely an expression of the infinite. Even the inch rule measurements of our scien tists, expressed in endless rows of ciphers, convey little informa tion, for. we are of such limited capacity that we cannot conceive the illimitable. Like a grain of sand upon the seashore is our own world in the stars of the universe, and the more we glimpse the infinite, the more it bewilders us. It assures us only of our relative unim portance and insignificance in the unsolved and unsolvable riddle of the universe. ' . ' l" Perhaps Pope was right when he wrote, "Presume not God to scan-the proper study of mankind is man." At any rate we haven't made any too rapid progress in our study of man and the field is an ample one to occupy our energies. Portland shipyards resist a government inquiry into their profits. So do all profiteers. If there is nothing to conceal, why the effort to conceal it? Why not much-rake the shipyards and the millionaires they created? Everything else connected with nthe war has been muck-raked to a frazzle. i I i I 11 BE .'-I I 1 1 J "Are you there my love?" I faintly, though he was generally as bold as brass. . "Wait a moment!" Mrs. Rusty or dered. "Where did this tobacco come from?" She spoke somewhat thickly, for she still held the bit of brown leaf in her bill. "I can't ,Jmagin," he stammered. "I never knew it was sticking to my tail until I saw it and brushed it' off U "On my clean floor!" his wife In terrupted. "Goodness knows it's bad enough to have you forever doing things like that without your bring ing tobacco into my clean house and without smelling of smoke, too. ' For almost the first time in his life ! Rusty Wren was really "worried. Some j how, he had managed to get into : something a good deal like a scrape. I It seemed to him that the house was' terribly hot and stuffy; and always before he had thought it quite- com- ! f ortable. "I'm going out for a breath of fresh air." he protested feebly.; And before Mrs, Rusty could stop. him he dodged past her and slipped through the tiny doorway, leaving" her to scold to her heart's content. . All this happened In the middle of the morning. And the cuckoo clock In Farmer Green's kitchen had sung the hour six times before Rusty When returned. Never before had he stayed away from his snug house so long. And. naturally, that made .him have a guilty feeling, as if he had really done something to be ashamed of. As for smoking, he had (as he said) never smoked in his life. It was true that Farmer Green wss burning , stumps in the pasture that morning, 'and that the odor of the smoke clung to Rusty's feathers. But the bit of tobacco that had clung to his tall was a mystery that he couldn't explain. It was a most unfortunate accident. But Rusty hop ed that by that time it was then the middle of the afternoon he honed displeasure. Usually, when they had any little difference of opinion, she felt better if he gave her plenty of time in which to scold. But now Rus ty was not quite sure of his welcome. He had never seen Mrs. Rusty so upset. "Are you there, my love?" he ask ed softly, as he alighted on the roof of his house. He did not care to go X For President A.

'This day, howiever, is my own, the day that's now on deck ; and I will chase the shinjng bone with bells around my neck. I'll do a dozen helpful stunts before the night arrives ; assist some weak," des pairing runts, and brighten up their lives. I've played a lot of knavish tricks for which I should atone, and now I should my record fix, for this day is my own. I cannot bank on any day that hasn't yet had birth ; before it comes and slides away I may fall off the earth. But at this writing I am sound and full of vim and pep, I'm full of life, I cave around with high and buoyant step. Tomorrow they may. measure me for monumental stone; today I'm busy as a bee, for this day is my own. So while I am a dweller here you'll find me on my job; today I'll dry the widow's tear, and can the orphan's sob.

This man's name is Mitchell Palmer and he is attorney general of the Uni ted States, as every scorner of the con stitution and breaker of, the nation's laws well knows. Up In the 26th congressional dis trict of Pennnj-eYania where Palmer fought his way into congress against the opposition o Charles M. Schwab, th steel king, who believes that the perpetuation of ,Ws riches depends on republican rule or misrule at Wash ington, the attorney general has been known since a young man as the "Fighting Quaker." And a "Fighting Quaker" .he Is and one with the visipnjpf looking for ward nnd seeing what the fight Is go ing to be and how tomeet and win it.1 Palmer challenged this left-handed influence in the Keystone democracy, went after it, fought it to a finish and cleaned it out, root and branch. The first big result was the sending: of Woodrow Wilson delegates to the Bal timore convention in 1912 without whom the man from Princeton court not have been nominated. Everyone not blinded by republican hate or pre judice now knows what tremendous service that was to the nations of the world. Of such fiber Is the "Fighting Qua ker," who has. risen in a tew years from a country lawyer's office at Strousburg, Pennsylvania, to be the foremost champion,- having the honor ed presence in the White House, of democratic ideals before the nation. When his name Ik offered to the na tional convention at San Francisco next June the democrats there assem bled, whatever their decision, will know that they have an opportunity to send not only a genuine one-hun- dred-per-cent American to the execu- Aitorncy General Palmer Is under no.tlve mansion but a simon-pure demo deluslnns as to the sort of -opposition Wat as well, one worthy in every Way he will meet f r'bm the republicans, I to uphold the party standard" against friends of Schwab and all the otherlall the forces of evil that menace this profiteers.
