THE RELATIVITY OF AMERICA
A
X IX.SKIXIFICANT loukini; (Jcnniin Jew, with celluloid eol-
liir, nrrived in New York the first of the week. Much to his
rinlmimssmciit he was met by eliccrin;,' thousands, transported in
Mayor Dylan 'k boat mid escorted to a palatial unite in the Hotel Com.
modore by an escort of honor.
The man's name was Einstein. Professor Einstein, and he
tame here to confer with American Jews on the best means of de
veloping Palestine Hut the reception accorded him was not in recog
nition of the importance of this pilfiriiniific, but in recognition of Ein
stein's theory of the relativity of mailer.
or tli in is the man who demonstrated Sir Isaac Newton was only
half right when hit in the ear by a fulling apple, and that Euclid wus
little more than n bush leaguer. When his book was published he ad
mitted there were only about ten human beings in the world who
would understand it, but this pronouncement only increased his repu
tation for scientific accuracy, and boosted hi(s volume into one of the
titty best sellers.
ror each of these ten wisemen wrole a hook about Einstein's
book, the great discovery was promptly wired from one approximate
atom in space to the other, and in no time at all, the retiring little
German professor was forced to crawl out of his garret in Berlin, und
receive the plaudits of a grateful and woashipful humanity.
All of which demonstrates one or two interesting facts. In the
first place America does not, as some critics maintain, despise brains.
According to press reports the reception given Einstein was almost
as vociferous as that extended Carpentier. .Moreover, on the tiny 'of
his arrival liabe Ruth had a sprained thumb, and whereas liubcV
thumb was only given a machine head on the sport page, the
Berlin professor's head was given a front page lead, with a photo
graphic, layout in tho run-over.
Another fact is that while no one in general understands whut
Einstein's theory means, they do understand, that it takes a life
sized whack at the established order. Even the theory of gravity,
which everyone supposed was as immutable as the mother-in-law
joke, is shaken. Instead of a straight, line being the shortest distance
between two points, this is only true outside of "curved snnce-' for
"falling bodies are subjects independent of physical causes and light
'n diffussion is bent"
AVherefor everyone rejoices, particularly everyone in America, ex-
eept the school teachers.
Probably Professor Einstein will no more understand A.nerie,,
than Americans will understand his theory, but (here is .significance
in his arrival and its reaction, nevertheless. For it demonstrates
again that this great country is simnlv crav .-.)..... t ,,vthin., if
doesn't understand, and steadily progresses through prompt recogni
tion ol what ever is completely ami sensationally new.

"How Htrongly this has col

THE MILLENIUM.
SOME day the stand-off scheme will smash, a wise old seer has
-said it and all we'll buy will .be for cash and none will ask
for credit. Collectors then won't block our way and bluff and
plead and beckon; and that will be a happy day for all of us. 1
reckon. We have to pay more for our eats, and find the poor
house closer, because we pay the bills of beats who sting the cor
ner grocer. The grocer sighs, "This Jasper Jones has jumped our
lovely city, and he was owing forty bones, which seems a ghastly
pity. He'll never pay me for my rice, be never more will greet
me; and so I'll have to raise the price from those who do not
beat me." And when I go to purchase prunes to feed mv chil
dren twenty, he's raised the price some picayunes, and soaks me
good and plenty. The tailor trusts it hundred men, and ten of
them don't pay him, and I must dig up an extra ven to comfort
him and stay him. And so it goes along the line in every kind of
dealing; the deadbeat adds to bills of mine until my head is reel,
mg. 'Twill he a blessed day, gndzooks, when "staiid-off system"
ceases, when merchant princes burn their books, and kick the slate
to pieces.
