Lee, Editors, Publishers and Owners We are not responsible for opin ions expressed by correspondents or others through our columns Gibson, Ga., January 25, 1933 HOW STRUGGLE FOR EXISTENCE WIPES OUT THE "UNFIT."— Is the present condition of the giraffe due to the fact that his an cestors stretched their necks to browse upon the foliage of trees? Are the characteristics which so nicely equip an organism to meet Its environment the accumulated product of many generations of special effort or special experi ence? Careful experimentation an wera: “No. Acquired characters are not Inherited.” Then how can we account for organic evolution? In any natural “population" or group of organisms of the Home species there Is a certain amount of hereditary variation. The hereditary equipment ot some Individuals happens to adapt them relatively well to the environment, while others are more poorly adapted. According to Charles Darwin, a living population Is a mixture of relatively "more fit" and relatively "less lit” Individuals. In a state of nature the repro ductive powers of organisms are such that more Individuals are born every generation than can hope to survive, due to local llm Stations In the supply ot food n ml the other necessities of life. Hence there Is a "struggle for existence," a competition In which the more fit Individuals have the better chance to survive and reproduce. In every generation nature thus selects the more fit to reproduce the populu tlon, and Inevitably the population moves In the direction of greater fitness. Natural selection thus In sures evolutionary progress, hut there are many other agencies which Interact in producing this result—Chicago Tribune. How New Lease of Life i Can Be Given the Aged Harry Benjamin, M. I)„ of New fork city, tried the Steinacli treatment for rejuvenation on a large number of aged men and women, and three fourths of them, he states, were helped both mentally and physically. Kangome Sutton writes. In the Los Angeles Sun day Times. Instead of transplanting glands or Injecting glandular extracts Into patients, this method seeks to stimulate one’s own glands, especially. Such treatment, says . Doctor Benja min, perceptibly Improved the mental and physical condition of all but about 250 of the 1,000 patients upon whom It was tried. “All such symptoms of senility as vertigo, tremors and arthri tis pains either Improved or dlsap peared.” Because of the ill repute given to Steinneh’s discoveries by the preteri slons of quackery, the medical profes sion swung over to the other extreme, But old folks will he glad to know that the subject Is at last getting a square deal by regular doctors who believe senility may be postponed Just so long as the endocrine glands can be kept Ir good working order. How to Clean Copper The tarnish on copper, brass and bronze Is copper carbonate. It may be removed by friction or It may he dls solved In weak acids. Itottenstone mixed with oil to a creamy substance is the frictional agent recommended by Miss Gladys Gallup, extension home management specialist nl Wait Ington State college Following application, the met it I should be polished with a soft dry cloth. A limit ruti’i'tig with dry rottenstone or whiting will give the metal nit even brighter luster In stub born cases, use buttermilk or vinegar warming If necessary. All traces ot the denning agent must lie removed or the metal will tarnish again Dry whtttug will often dean and polish.— Pathfinder Magazine. How to Prevent Sugar Lumps No housekeeper likes to have ner sugar howl tilled with uninviting lumps of all glzes. especially when there's . company. How can one prevent the pesky lumps from forming, particular ly In damp weather? II. V. Moss chief chemist of the Provident chemical works of St Louis has solved that problem. He Inis discovered a way to take the lumps out of sugar bowls and keep them < nt. Simply add a little calcium phosphate (one per cent ts enough. It will not only prevent the lumps from forming, but calcium phos phate, It has been discovered, has vnl uable health properties. How Wall Street Got Name Wall street In New York received its name from the fact that in the time of Peter Stuyvesant a palisade or wall was built across Manhattan along that line to protect the Dutch Colonists from a threatened British attack. The wall was removed before 1700. but the street aloug It has ever aluce been called Wall street.

The pro posed new jmst office, the mayor estl muted, would cost the government $0,000 a year to operate, and "render It necessary to Increase the village taxes to make up this loss of revenue.'’ Mr. Terry said that the village had been opposed to the construction ever Since It first had been proposed, about four year ago. Besides writing a letter of protest to Mr. Mills. Mr. Terry sent a letter to Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, who has a summer residence near the village, re questing his help In “stopping tills project." The mayor declared that the vll lage did not believe the construction of n new post office building would help the town's unemployed, since the "contractor would come from outside and bring his own labor.” Monkeys Startle Town After Escaping Circus Upper Darby, Pa.—Monkeys perched atop telegraph poles, ran Into base ments, peered into bedroom windows and Jumped on housetops In Ibis quiet town. A negro ran from a store basement shout Ing. “Monkeys: The place is full of them, or I'm crazy!” A man telephoned police In a rather apologetic voice: ”1 may he wrong, but there scent to be hundreds of monkeys running around on Sixty-ninth street.” The skeptical police sergeant ud vised: “That's all right, old fellow. You Just go home and get some sleep find you’ll he all right.' Then an early morning workman called to report the basement of a store “full of wild animals.” a woman called and explained that a monkey had attempted to enter her half-opened bedroom window. By this time the "monkey business” had become serious for the police, ami the hunt began. They found the creatures perched on electric light signs, hovering In doorways, shivering from the cold, huddled In basement entrances and hanging to tree llnths. They had es caped from a cage which was con signed to an Indoor circus opening here. ' I ANY KIND OF HOUSE |N1SHINGS. 1 FURNITURE, STACY AMI) USED. THOMSON, GA. GIBSON RECORD. GIBSON. GA. MRS. E. D.
