New York's Woolworth building, for instance, protects all buildings within a radius of eleven hundren feet square around it. The World building, recently struck by lightning, would not have been struck had it hundred feet nearer the Woolworth building--that is, assuming it was not an intentional act of Providence. This should make it easy to protect oil tanks by grouping them around high steel masts, copper sheathed, for greater conductivity. News from Gieat Britain, on couraging for speculators in oi is bad for the United States States as a whole. The British seek to dominate th woild's oil supply.

Th first plan every intelligent, is to "drain the Unittd Stall's supply." Britain con- ivcs -saves where she'controls the land it, using the States ml'suppb.

Let's HOPE that won't be drained. The Rev.

Pr. Stiaton. arrinving in California for a debate on evolution finds a trends away fiom religious faith and respects foi laws of God or man, especially in the young. Consequently, "The future of otir nation, and our race is threatened." Dr. Straton defies science to produce one fact substantiating the scientific truth of evolution.

The scientists ask Dr. Straton to produce one fact substantiating the scientific truth of Eve's creation from Adam's rib. They say every man has the same numbei of ribs on each side. Such discussions a.e fruitless. Relip'ons have gradually changed for a thousand centuries, as man's knowledge has increased and theii civilization improved.

Our C'niif- tian religion once burned men alive, for saying the earth is round and goes around the sun. After men had sailed around the earth, religion changed its opinion. It will change in many respects. It no longer emphasizes Bible texts saying it is all right to have slaves, and just how to bore holes in their cars, as a sign of perpetual servitude. Why anyone should exffi'-t to anything diffeient in men 1 science is a mystery to Dr.

who has lifted the veil from nany scientific mysteries. "We'ic just like anyone else." he said. just ordinary mortals." The first thin" one hears about Or. Millikan is that he is Democratic. Honors internationally bestow eel--the nobel prize among sit slightly upon If Dr.

His discovery of building acti- in the universe has come from 'is cosmic ray investigations.

Now he wants to know some- hing about directional phase of rays--if they come from larticular stars or narticular parts if the universe. The cosmic rav has engaged Dr. Millikan's attention for years. He had labored long at the mystery before he was able to announce his Mscovery in 1925. Recent investigations have ex- ended all tl.e way from Kellcy Texas, to the Andes in Bo- 'via.

as necessary to men as air and water. Every man not wilfully ignorant knows the earth is millions of years old, that the animals were here millions of years before man appeared. Why insist on childish falsehood, to bolster rcligin, which needs no such chidish, obviously false bolstering. The Bible eloes not tell us to shut our eyes.

Because of his tennis playing, he says, "I never have to worry about being sick." Increasing p'essure of his work has cut into his golf. As is well-known. Dr. Millikan sees no conflict between science and religion.
