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.

OUR DAY.
I know not what tomorrow's dawn may bring along my way ;
perhaps by then I may be gone from this cheap ball it clay. '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 is no kentle pillow-fighter, no

This is no gentle pillow-fighter, no

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
