ONE NEW YEAR, LONG, LONG AGO Life Now 100,000,000 Years Old and year 560,C00 fer Human Life, He Figures WHAT SCIENCE TELLS US B YHARRY B. HUNT Washington, Dec. 31—Janyary 1, 1921! New Year’s day we call it. Yet it isn’t a new year, at all, according to Dr. Charles D, Walcott, scientist, secretary of the Smithsonian Institu- tion, but a very, very old year. ‘The only real. New Year, Dr. Wal- cott holds, occurred many millions of years ago—probably 100,000,000, at least. ‘A recent resume,” says Walcott, “showing the relative age of the sedi- mentary strata for each period of his- points to a minimum of 90,000,- 000 years since water and wind be- gan to transport continental earth and rocks over the land and-into the seas * and lakes.” Ftp caer Hee | Phere daar ence put the first New Year for life? Life. Began Long Ago “A concrete conception of the age of life on earth,” Walcott says, “is sug- gested by recalling that the so-called ; Cambrian period, with its early and semi-primitive forms of invertebrate |mmarine Lossils, stands tougniy spedk- ‘ing,midway in the earth’s history Au~- proximately as long a period of time was required to: develop life to the, Cambrian stage of evolution as has elapsed up to the present time.” ~ ln other words, a form of life which already had undergone a Jong era of, development from the first animal- culae that was evolved from the} steaming waters of a lifeless earth, ex- igted something like 45,000,000 years ago. Through long ages life was noth- things in water. Chief among the life oe this period were the trilobites, Ning things like big sea woodlice and probably related to the American king-erab of today. During this time the’ land was apparently barren of life. Then came fish, and giant reptiles, living partly in water, partly on land. Then land vertebr » Taammals and, through millions of generations, the animal life of today. Just when. the New Year for man arrived, is uncertain.
