We know that the pre-Cam- brian seas must have been replete with lime salts in solution. If any of the In the next oldest known rocks, Prof. Schuchert says, there have been found traces of some primitive sponges, some tiny protozoa-like crew tures known as foraminifera. trails of worm-like creatures and of some un- known invertabrate animal. There are also limestone deposits of peculiar formation laid down by tiny plants, the blue-green algae, who are still busy in American rivers after almost a billion years. There also are traces of bacteria. Even some of these were already high in the scale of life, espe- cially the worm-like creatures known as annelids. Seen in a museum exhibit today these lords of creation a half billion yen: ago look like very primitive creatures. But they are probably closer to the highest developed forms of life today than to the most complex forms which preceded them and of which there is record. Just behind them lie the lost millenniums during which animal life was beginning to take on the evolutionary processes which resulted in the mammals of many millions of years later. SKELETON GROWTH MYSTERY The fossils of the sea creatures were embedded in the rock, so that geot'o- gists today know what they looked like and what families they belongd to. Some of them were relatively enor- mous creatures, measuring from six to eight inches. They represent practi- cally all the divisions of the animal kingdom now found in the seas except those with backbones such as fish, mammals and reptiles. The record of time, Prof. Schuchert explains, runs back in fairly good order through the period known as Cambrian time, about 500000.000 years ago. Then there was abundant life' in the great oceans. Many of the creatures had hard shells. They died, sank to the bottom and were buried in the mud. Through the millennium, the seas disappeared, the bottom mud became rock and was raised up into mountains.

KRAFT Thus certain sea shells now living can be traced back practically with- out change for 400,000,000 years and the race shows no signs of degenerate ing through old age. On the other Land snail shells in an artificial lime created in Wisconsin evolved into a recognizably different species in sixty years. The evolution of living creatures, Prof. Schuchert points out in his re- port on the possibility of determining the age of the earth trom fossils and from the thickness; of rocks laid lown by sedimentation, appears to have gone on at such a variable rate throughout history that it is a very unreliable guide to elapsed time.

To be on the safe side in our table we have allowed only half as much time and the future alone can tell how near our guess is to the truth." So, he says, "Lipalian time stands for the unrecovered interval during which the marine animals evolved mostly from very small floating and swimming forms without exterior skeletons into Ae much larger and highly diversified life of the Cambrian. How long Lipalian time lasted can only be guesser, since we have no guidance at.all from radio-active min. erals or from rates d organic evolu- tion.

Our people frequently develop love only after the marriage ceremony is over; for in the majority of cases the man and woman :re not truffieient- ly well acquainted even to hold hands during the period of their engagement. Yes, it seems we do things in exact- ly the opposite way-even to saying grace. In American homes, if grace ls said, it is before food that is eaten by the living. In Japan prayers are recited only before food that is prof. fered to the dead. And, when we say grace, we have our faces turned up, while you pray with your faces turned down. American and European wo- men in mourning wear black dresses. whereas in Japan women wear only white during this sad period. On the other hand, black is the conventional costume worn at weddings in Japan.

It is early morning in a typical American home. You are resting on soft pillows and spring beds. We are different even while we sleep, since in Japan people lie on hard beds and rest their heads on firm pillows, those tsed by the women encased in wooden sheaths. Presently you awake. You sit up and stretch yourselves, facing the foot of the bed. As we in Japan rise, we make a turn so that. when we stretch ourselves, we have our faces turned in the pposite direction, to- ward the pillow. In brushing your teeth you devote as little time as pos- sible to the undertaking. Our man- trymen take as long as possible. in fact it is not uncommon for a Japan- ese of the lower classes to be seen out on a morning" work in the neighbor- hood of his home, brushing his teeth. After washing your faces, you use a dry towel. We wipe our faces with amtoist towel. Just as our Japanese days appear unaccountable to you, so your Occi- dental ways are equally unaccountable to us. Suppose I set down a few of the customs, observed during a brief stay m the United States, which seem strange to a Japanese, Here we have an interesting and informative article, written by Kimpei Sheba, city editor of the Japan "Times and Mail," wherein we view custom: and habits of the Occident as seen by the Orient. The West Through Eastern Eyes "But you have told me that tor more than a month. What am I to think?" "I cannot say it will be finished, and 1 cannot say " won't be tittitehed.

They had already been a month and a halt longer than they had led me to belieye. Could I rely on them to complete their task by Wednesday? "Why, as to that," said the enrepro- neur. blowing up his forge, “as to that, it will certainly be well advanced." in my Norman village I constantly heard the non-committal reply. The workmen were putting up an elaborate kitchen with incredible complication ot pipes to carry hot water from room to room; and were painting and car. pentering and generally making my old mill inhabitable in order to make it habitable. "Por a good apple you the year In not been too good, but tor n bad npple year the year has not been too bad." That is the classical phrase attributed to Norman apple-growers. It is heard in a. thousand variants. You can never get nearer the facts. Things might have been better, but then they might have been worse. On the positive side the Norman philosophy is lacking. There are no enthusiasms. Superla- tives are eechewed. Everything is comparative. 1 'fsh t'lL""hN ' “U any": v a: TORONTO A Happy Normandy Village ', When the first train was run be- Aween Tokyo and Yokohama, the late Meiji Emperor attended the memor- able ceremony. Te be in k.eeping with the wave of westernization that then swept the country, the Emperor plan- ned to ride to the etation in a horse- drawn carriage rather than in the court pelanquin. The only difficulty in, using a carriage wee to find a suitable‘ livery for the driver. After a search in the offieUl wardrobe, a foreign gar- ment was discovered which seemed to never very well. It was dignified, had buttons and decorative stripes and we: said to have been bought at a foreign auction in Yokohama. Bo His Majesty rode in his new carriage, end all seemed well to Japanese eyes. Butl Visitors to Japan frequently find it duHieult to keep from laughing out- right on observing some of the ridicu- Ious trmgs ste do in an effort to affect western ways. This is especially true in the case of English signboards. “Ladies have fits inside," you may read over a drtssmaker's shop; or "Have y;ur head cut here,” over _ barber shop. l Another matter in which the Jap- anese diner is in smiling when th:y are reprimanded. This hat caused a great deal of misunderstanding be- tween foreign employers and Japan- ese employer-almost as much mis. understanding as the Japanese custom of actually saying no when yes is meant, and vice versa. Take the case of aged people. Elder- ly folk in America generally do not live with their grown-up children. Ir. Japan the children, out of considers tion for their parents, prefer suffering a little diseomfurt--<rften it is a great deal of discomfort-to having their parents live apart. from them. We differ not only in our actions but in the way in which we look at things. For instance, a European visitor to Nippon finds a litter of un. wanted puppies left in the bushes. He cannot help protesting against such cruelty. On the other land. when a Japanese hears that in western coun- tries unwanted pups are killed, he will ask, "How does any one know that the helpless puppies prefer to die?" Told that it is better for the puppies to be painlessly put to death than to be left in the bushes where their chance of keeing alive is very small indard, he is certain to ask: "Why then are not famine-stricken people in China killed painlessly?” l have little use for it. You. open a gift in the presence of the person who gives it to you. In Japan this is never done. Our "after dinner" speeches are made before dinner. In Japan people will wait hours, drinking tea. before commencing to eat but will leave as soon as the meal is over. In western countries people object to waiting for their meals but will stay for hours after their meals, drinking coffee. In the Occident people are supposed to eat all that is on their plates. This is bad taste in Nippon. You stand as a sign of respect, but in Japan it is disretspeetful to stand-one must always sit on the floor in greet- ing a guest. Again, in America it is' regarded as undignified to have no) furniture in a "oom. In Japan it isl undignified to have furniture in a: room.
