THE STATE’S OLDEST NEWSPAPER (Established 1873) YOU YOUNG MEN! DO YOUR DUTY! More than seven million young American citizens have “come of age” since the last presidential election. This year they are able to vote for president for their first time. Seven millions! Enough to swing the election. The vote of you newcomers is needed just as vitall 3 the vote of older citizens. You now are “of age.” Eligibility to vote is your right. It is also your privilege and duty. DETROIT Kresge Bldg.

YOUR NOISE Annoyed and unable to sleep because of the clatter and hum of high-power airplanes flying over his home, an Eng- lishman went to court about it. The magistrate sympathizes, but says nothing done. Give us a few million airplanes in use, and we’ll have some choice problems in noise, danger from wrecks overhead and trash tossed overboar§ by flying joy-riders. Wise communities are looking ahead, planning traffic regulations for the air. Remember, the law is usually 10 years behind problems. can be MAR; If you have been wondering how the scientists are able to tell so much about conditions on Mars, here is a sampl The Lowell Observatory in Arizona recently found that the temperature on Mars is 48 degrees, instead of below zero, as had been supposed. This was learned by using the Cob- lentz radiometer, which is so delicate that it ‘urately measures the heat of a candle 100 miles away. Human brains that can make such a wonderful mechan- ism will not be balked at finding a way to communicate with the people on Mars, if any. CLIMATE The arctic regions used to have a warm, mild climate. Fossils proving this were brought back by Explorer Mac- Millan. When the weather experts claim the climate doesn’* change, they really mean that it changes so extremely that it takes thousands of years to observe any difference. The change seems to be taking place faster of late years. Many parts of central and northern Canada report that “queer winters” have nearly exterminated field mice and squirrels. EGO The public used to sneer and guffaw when imaginative scientists, far in advance of their time, suggested that people may live on Mars and other heavenly bodies besides the earth. Man’s egotism, knowing no bounds, fancied that the stars and their satellites far off in space existed only as tiny points of light for men to glance at when they felt like it. Now we know that our world is, in the universe, less than a single drop of water in the oceans. With knowledge, man becomes more humble. ‘ EXIT Fifteen years ago it was not unusual for a popular song! |, to sell three million copies.

I wish you could have seen that woman’s face, Leslie!
