“AND ONLY MAN IS VILE. ” Grain fields of gold and corn fields green, While here and there, set in between, Is one of earth Just plowed anew. All black and stark; upon it grew Rich clover hay; and over there A pasture lies, now sere and bare Except along the river brink, Wherein some horses stand and drink. And now a farmstead ecmes in view, With big red barn and feed lot, too, Enclosing cattle sheds and ricks: And in the road, a hen and chicks Half grown, and shoats with funny squeals, All run before our spinning wheels; Across a fence, a new born calf Whose funny legs e’er make us laugh. A corn crib, empty now, appears, Which soon will groan with golden ears; A granary wherein we know The now shocked grain will shortly go; A silo and a wind mill tall, Some guinea hens that shriek their call; Machinery beneath a shed. And garden truck, full bed on bed. Such were the sights in mid July, In Iowa we passersby Could not but note our route along— Yet with the picture much was wrong; For never could those scenes erase The haunted look on every face We saw along the well paved way, Where aught should be serene and gay. When poverty with plenty walks, While in the cities famine stalks, What are our bursting bins of grain, Save only symbols of how vain Is explanation or denial, That on our earth but man is vile? And he’ll continue vile, indeed, i Until he overcomes his greed. —Sam Page.

Tex. -CUP)— William Riddle Warner, until 47 a cowboy, soldier and forest ranger, is win ning fame as an artist. "I just began to pant.” cxplans Warner. "While I was riding or camping, t used to find myself thinking. ‘I'd like to paint that.’ when the sun would be setting behind the moun tains, or a bunch of cows would be milling toward a water hole, with a couple of hands lounging in the saddle after ’em. "I tried a few pictures in water colors and then in oils, but I couldn't get the colors to bland right somehow. Once when I was In El Peso I happened in on Lewis Teel while lie was painting. I watched, and asked him some questions.” Warner went home and painted his first picture, using a chair as an easel. That was two years ago, when Warner was 47. With hard work, the encouragement of a sympathetic wife, who follows him into the wild at a momoent’s no tice. he began to produce paint ings of marked individuality, and recently exhibited them here. Warner was born and spent his boyhood on a ranch in Western Canada. He began life in the Southwest with a team at Hol brook, Ariz., working first in the Indian service, then as a forest ranger, spicing those years with a trip to the Orient "to see what it was like,” and army service during the World war. He met Mrs. Warner in Tulsa. Okla. They spent their honeymoon on a 350-mile pack trip trough New Mexico and Arizona. A LONG TIME DEAD From Indianapolis New3 It now turns out, if we may trust the ekperts, that the famous Java man perhaps better known as Pithe canthropus Erectus, is, or was, a woman. The bones of this supposed ancestor of ours were not long ago dug up ofter having been entombed In the earth 500,000 years. Why it should have been assumed that all the numerous recovered fragments —Pildown, Neanderthal, etc.—-be longed to males, is not clear. There must have been a good deal of jump ing at conclusions. Sorely if there were piltdown men, there must also have ben Piltdown ladies. If our amusing race has great great grand fathers, or uncles, it also must have had great great grandmothers or aunts. That, we take it, is self-evi dent. Now that one hasty assumption has been overthrown, it mayjje that a study along seq lilies will reveal that there are other long buried females, whether apes, or ape-humans, and thus once more the supposedly weak er sex will come into its own, which is greatly to be desired. It would be a real pleasure to make the acquaint ance of a Neatherthal woman, and to remeber her on Mother’s day. No woman, we feel, woul object to being known as 500,000 years old— as a skeleton, or a part thereof. No such question could arise, and for obvious reasons. Rather we should look for a very active and spirited competition in ages between the two sexes. The greater the age the gratr th dis tinction and honor. Even among people now alive there are men who after they have attained a certain number of years, and like to think of themsilves, not as young, but ‘‘well preserved.” Bones that last 500,000 years are ‘‘some bones.” AH hail to the Java woman!

A dream came true aboard a little Italian salvage vessel anchored oil the French coast a short time ago. It was a fantastic, impossible dream, lit for mythmnkers and saga-singers. But a group of Genoese seamen made it come true when they hoisted $1, 000,000 worth of gold from the wreck of the liner Egypt, 400 feet be low the surface, to the deck of their ship, the Artiglio II. For nearly four years those Gen oese sailors and divers have been working there. In 1922 the liner rigypt, hound from England for In Jia, was rammed and sunk. In. her strong room she carried gold and Bilver valued at $5,000,000, five tons of gold in bars and coin and 45 tons of silver. The disaster came in fog, and not even the survivors could say of a certainty where the ship went flown. In 1929 a group of Italian seamen whose business was salvage began searching for the wreck of the Egypt. It was almost a year later before they found and identified it, at a depth hitherto considered far too great for salvage operations. But they were not awed by precedent. They had special equipment for deep gea work. And they had patience and faith in their dream. Driven off | oy bail weather, they returned again | and again, slowly worming their way into the Egypt’s hidden places. During the winter of 1930-1931, ; when they could not work at the Egypt, the salvagers turned to an other task, and In trying to remove a sunken munition boat from a traffic lane their salvage ship was blown up and 14 men were killed. But even that omen did not discourage them. I Last fall they blasted away the last l barrier of the Egypt's strong room and the treasure lay there, ready to be taken out. Then came bad weather and months of Idleness. | Now they have dipped Into that j strong room and brought up gold. Their success Is the more notable when It Is realized that these Italian seamen attacked the Atlantic In one of its strongest points. The currents are powerful and almost constant where the Egypt lies. Fogs are fre quent. Favorable weather for such work comes only a few months a year. And the divers, at that depth, can • see scarcely ten feet beyond their heavy diving shells. The search for burled or sunken treasure lias thrilled mankind for centuries. It is one of the high ad ventures, and dreams of success have ranked, in song and story, with dreams of flying in the air, sailing beneath the seas, finding the earth's poles and girdling the globe by air. The other dreams have come true. And now, In an age singularly changed in Its dreaming, comes suc cess for this oldest and most de ceptively alluring dream of all.
