Green and Elm Sts. TeL 104-R Go G R I Y H O U N Extermination Confronts 'Rid Howltr' off Colomllt A tough old conservative Is the red howler monkey of northern Columbian Jungles. Families stick to their old homes and old ways until they starve to death, showing almost no ability to adapt themselves to changing times such as characterizes msny of their close relatives. This is stressed by Dr. Philip Hershkovitz in a report on the mammals of northern Columbia Issued by the U. S. National museum, Smithsonian Institution. Hershkovitz was at first puzzled by what seemed the endless variety shown by these animals. It was qs if they were split into many races. But the difficulty is explained, he says, when their strong conservatism is considered. "The red howler," he says, "is s comparatively sedentary animal. Sluggish in movement, conservative in habits. Combined with its great ability to survive environmental fluctuatlbns is Its small capacity for adaptation to such changes. "Under ' normal environmental conditions this howler, with its ehormous vitality and almost complete freedom from predators, will flourish. Its natural habitat is rich with food and water. However, many red howlers taken by me appeared to be remnants ' of erstwhile large populations confined to small relicts of primary forest In these hibitats clans of howlers have become isolated from the rest of the population. With continued deforestation they will be exterminated. Individuals persist, however, as long as nature provides them with a suitable tree and its fruit. t Sunday we were happy to welcome back the choirs to our morning service. Twenty-six youngsters, robed anTT singing marched in during the processional hymn. Ldter during the service they led us in worship by singing the anthem, "Thee, Holy Father We Adore." It was a pleasure to have them sing for us again and we look forward to their services during the coming months. As announced. Sunday was the kick-off of the United Evangelistic Advance of the thirty-eight Prot'es- ; tant denominations who are joining j together during the next fifteen ! months under the banner "America | for Christ." Our conference and .our district has joined this movement and every local church is < asked to carry on the program in Jits own community. There is a | task for each and work for all in this worthwhile enterprise. Mrs. Donald Barger, president of the W. S. C. S. has asked that we announce that the next meeting of this organization will be held Oct. 20 at 1:30 and the program will be centered around the work of the Girl Scouts. At Sunday School several attendance pins were awarded and other awards announced that will be presented later. A full list will follow next week. Miss Nancy Rudin's class of girls received the attendance banner for the best attendance during the month of September. This Thursday evening the announced Congregation meeting will be held. We hope that a good attendance will be given for the business at hand. "See You in Church Sunday." Qhfnloal World off Futuro Eivitionod by Scientist A chemically transformed world of tomorrow, in which the United States alone could support a billion citizens living in earthenware Souses and eating fats from coal, ligar from trees, and proteins from yeast, has been envisioned by a Harvard chemist who received a gold medal and $1,000 cash for helping to build a new industry out of sand. He is Professor Eugene G. Rochow, winner of the biennial Leo Hendrik Baekelani! award of the North Jersey section of the American Chemical society. The world he pictures, which could have a total population as high as 15 billion, would be made possible largely by the use of inexhaustible instead of exhaustible raw materials. Houses, for example, would be built of excavated earth fused into bricks and slabs on the spot. Meat and eggs would disappear from man's diet, because the animals producing them consume too much food. Cellulose frdm trees, a highly efficient type of plant, would be converted into edible sugars--and synthetic clothes, as well. Right now. Professor Rochow believes, metal shortages in this country have reached the point whertf automobile manufacturers should merely lend cars to purchasers, instead of selling them, to guarantee complete recovery of scrap. j- "Happy Hunting Ground" thinking that the Indian enjoyed hunting, white men gave the name "happy hunting ground" 4o thO place where Indians go after death. Actually, the Indian considered hunting hard work, and his real idea of heaven was comparable to a white man's--a place to singreat, dance and enjoy life. U. 8. Rail Mileage Total railway mileage of the United States is 226,696, equal to 28 per cent of the world total and more than the combined mileage of South America, Asia, Africa, and Australia. v Spirit of Research The spirit of research is not pe* CUliar to chemistry. It can be ap» plied to anything. It is a frame of mind, a ferment which brings life. Gaston F. Bubois Complete line of Beebe livestock remedies at Watties Drug Store.
