McRae, the newspaper publisher-genius : “The brevity of life is a startling thing when analyzed. generation is only a little more than 33 ye: One-half of the human race dies before attaining the age of 17; one- q er before the age of 7. Complex problems have simple solutions. Milton A. Mc- Rae, in his autobiography, tells how he built up the St Louis Chronicle in 1887. It was a penny paper, but handi- capped because St. Louis did not use pennies for change in those days, a nickel being the smallest coin. McRae ordered $10,000 worth of pennies from the mint and got them distributed by inducing local merchants to price goods at 49 and 98 cents instead of 50 cents and $1. With pennies in their pockets, people bought the penny paper. Its circulation in one year jumped from 7000 to 25,000. RENT New homes built in the first six months this year in the United States were enough to house 205 ‘families, re- pets Department of Labor. Two and a half years at this reve would eliminate the ortage of a million homes” that resulted from war conditions. On the other hand. a lot of these new residences are simply replacing old ones, and accordingly do not apply on relieving the shortage. We still have an insufficiency ot housing. When the problem is solved, no government bulle- tin will be necessary. Rents will reflect it. MYSTERY In Ireland they find more of the mysterious. porcelain images of apes which have been dug up over there, 50 found since year 1780, in widely scattered places. Chinese scholars claim these porcelain images are of Chinese origin, including their peculiar hieroglyphics, and date back to the year 500 B. C. How did they get to Ire- land? Did Chinese explorers travel that far? The ancient history of China, as it comes to light, will be fascinating.

The other day two aged men fought over the affections of an aged woman. Youth has no monopoly on love, though most old people do their courting in memory. MAYFLOWER The Mayflower, historic ship that arrived in 1620, ried 102 passengers. Their living descendants now total over 6000, and 5200 of these have had their lineage authen- ticated by the Socicty of Mayflower Descendants. Viewed unemotionally, the Mayflower was simply an im- migrant ship. We're all immigrants if we go back far enough, and only a few generations for most of us. PRIZEFIGHTER Al Brown, flyweight boxer. is 5 feet 9 inches tall, but weighs only 112 pounds. Yet he’s a very hard hitter. The average man of the same height and weighing no more wouldn't step into the prize ring for a mint. Brown has self-confidence which, in fighting as in life, act a lot of handicaps—provided.you haven’t too “KIDN APED” *.. At an auction in New York a man pays $10,000 for the original manuscript of “Kidnaped,” by Robert Louis Steven- son. The author must have turned over in his grave. We don’t know what he got for writing this book, but for “Trezsure Island,” his masterpiece, “Young Folks” magazine paid him only $3 a column. Today he could name his own i Our generation has the money, but not the Steven- LABOR In 1920, out of every $1000 received by railroads, $554 was paid in wages and salaries. In 1928, only $443. The average railroad employe has also been working harder than in 1920, in common with the general public. The charts, as ued by the railroads show that the sav- ing has largely gone into “net income.” FORESTS Artificial lumber, made from waste fiber of sugar cane, hs only a fourth as much as pine board, thus cutting transportation costs. Ti is not impossible that the solution of our forestry problem will be worked out in the laboratory — synthetic timber. Asbestos shingles and concrete already have cut quite a hole in the lumber trade. 79 - WIVES An old man with a record of 79 wives, 134 sons and 59 daughters! He's discovered in an African native village by census-takers. One of his neighbors has 110 wives and 93 chil@ren. Both of them are pikers compared with Solomon of old.

AN AIR-POST PASSENGER (Philadelphia Bulletin) The San Franc mail himself to Ne not discouraged by the fact that his 184 pounds avoirdupois demands $817.07 postage for the trip, but the postoffice in California is doubtful whether it can accept him for trans- portation, and has asked the postmas- ter general for a ruling on the mat- ter. In a country where so many people are willing to pay $25 or $50 or $100 for short airplane trips, the postoffice might find its facilitie ert i the air service should be made able for passenger transport even at regular postal rates, There is a quite general curiosity to exper- ience a lengthy air journey across the country, but the develcpment of pass- enger service of that kind in the United States has been — practically nil. In Europe air routes couple up most of the ing cities, and some of them regularly y not only passengers, but parcels. Air travel between London and Paris is heavy, and a great many Ameri would hardly regard a visit to complete without crossing the chan- nel by this means, A regular line carrying passengers by air from Philadelphia to Wash- ington and Norfolk would afford a scenic route of great interest, und might easily offer unusual opportun- ities to cover the historic area be- tween Richmond and Gettysburg. Why does America lag so far behind Europe in commercial flying? ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “Will you please say a riddle that asked Nancy. s your heart. Of course ” said the Riddle Lady. I'll tory and you can guess “I hope it is about something to it is. I'll tell you that much,” smiled the Riddle Lady. “But I'm not so sure that you would care for it much.” “What is the riddle?” asked Nick, who reully liked riddles even better than cross-word puzzles. “It’s about six little Irish boys by the name of Green,” said the Riddle Lady. “And because they were green and their names were Green, they lived in a green house. A funny house it was—quite long and narrow and not a window in it. “Well, the six little Green boys grew and grew and grew and by and by they began to be crowded. They were so crowded they could scarcely move. “And when they became crowded, ' they were quite uncomfortable. And the minute they became uncomfort- able they began to blame it on each other. ““Begorra, move over!” said Pat to Mike. ‘I'm so crowded I can’t move,’ and he gave him a push with his shoulder. “Pat's crowded and he’s pushing,’ | said Mike to Dennie. You'll have to move over or I'll get smashed.’ And to Pat's pushing he added a little pushing of his own. “‘Bejabbers!’ said Dennis to Lar: ry, ‘It’s the life that’s being pushed out of me. If you don't move over, Larry, PI be nothing but a lot of mush. Do be koind enough tol move a bit! “And to Pat’s and Mike's pushing Dennis added a little pushing of his own. “By that time poor Larry was al- | mest flat.

Which was as it should be, for Pat had started it all. “Isn't it just like people to blame |®—] their troubles on each other? “But they boiled and boiled, these six brothers did, and after while} when dinner was served, little John- ny ate them up.” “I know what they were. six green peas,” suid Nick.

Ex- BY CONDO HE’LL CREATE A SENSATION By Albert Apple ‘ The exploits of Herr Flettner will shortly be plastered all over the front pages of American newspapers, provided his present plans do not fizzle. | Flettner is a German, now living in Holland, who has ; invented a windship or sailing ship without any sails. Thai | sounds like World Vaudeville. But wait a minute. | This windship isn’t;a wild dream. It has been demon- strated so satisfactorily that it is the scientific sensation of |Europe. Big steamship companies expect to use his inven- jtion on freighters, displacing coal. Instead of sails, Flettner uses huge cylinders shaped like ; smokestacks. These revolve and, in some magical way not disclosed, harness the terrific power of air. currents. Berlin will erect similar cylinders to generate electricity {for lighting streets and so on. ~ i The possibilities:-of such an invention are almost beyond lthe imagination. Industry and transportation would be } RoR eIOMIZeN wind furnishing the power now obtained from coal. It seems too good to be true. And possibly it is. But Flettner’s invention has the marks of authenticity, both i its demonstrations to date and in the big corporations that | have interested themselves in it. (Stupendous power is going to waste in the air. The force that blows your hat off, uproots trees and turns the windmill could, properly harnessed, relieve man of a large j; part of his labor.

We have barely begun to use the power that nature has placed all about us. _ But winds and tides and sun’s heat will become our slaves lee time—no doubt, long before scientists discover how to release the energy stored in the atom or finish drilling a hole deep into the earth to tap the interior heat.
