Here's More By BRISBANE Continued From Page 1 pass before the unique combination of events which led to my career recur in the case of Social upheavals, sudden changes in national conditions such as we witness now, create opportunity. And for those who can see and seize them, this will prove to be a period of great possibilities. It will, let us hope, produce no Napoleon. But it may produce new constructive genius, which the world needs, altruistic, instead merely selfish, ability. Arthur Eddington, a great scientist, shares with Sir James Jeans, perhaps the greatest living astronomer, the belief that the universe is running down, and will "come to an end," when all its energy is spent.

These scientists see in the universe only the throwing out of energy. Atoms in the sun, breaking down, throw off their electrons. All through the universe is a throwing out of energy. Everything tends to tear down, and there is nothing to build up. And when the radio-active, or "throwing out" energy is exhausted, the universe will cease to exist, as we conceive it, and dead matter, presumably, will drift through space forever and ever.

Such is the destiny of the universe as they see it. Once before the discovery of radio-active energy in matter, men dealt only with the law of gravitation, which, left to itself, would eventually bring all the matter of the universe into one solid ball. A great scientist could only account for the motion of the earth around the sun by saying that it had received its initial propulsion from the hand of God. Long ago, the late Albert Brisbane predicted that men would discover a "counter-gravitation," some force in the universe offsetting the power of gravity, which tends to bring all matter together. Radio-activity supplies that countor er-gravitation.

And now scientists is exhausted, the universe tell you that, when radio activity down, and everything will be at an end. They are mistaken. A whale uses up energy swimming through the ocean spouting water. But it also swallows tiny marine creatures as it goes, catching them with the whalebone inside of its mouth, sweeping them down into its stomach with its big tongue. Thus it continues building up whale material while using up energy.

The intelligence that keeps this universe going has probably organized the great suns and other stars in space at least as well as it has organized the whales. The big whale dies, but a little whale takes its place. And so it will be with the great suns, with all respects to Jeans, Eddington, and even Einstein. Incidentally the suggestion that "time began" at some definite point in the past being completely idiotic, it follows that there is an back of us, as well as an eternity ahead of us. If in any conceivable amount of time, this universe could "run down" it would have run down, and come to an end long ago in the eternity back of us.

If men will attend properly to their own duties they need not worry about the universe. ENGAGED New York, Feb. -The New York American announces the engagement of Miss Eleanor Hoyt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard F.
