ATTACKING FINAL DEFENSES. . . A peeress is knocking fur admission to the British house of lords. The only reaon for keeping her out. is that toleration of a woman sitting in that body Just hasn't been done. With a woman in the house of , ramoni it id reasonable to expect a woman, hitherto nlsqualifled only because cf her sex to break down the barriers before long and take he seat with the others that constitute that ancient legislative body vhii.h has ceased to be much of anything but an entity. The situation Is unimportant exeep as indicating the progress of woman in attaining rights equal with trn. Th entrance of women to the house of lords would not reform that body or make it modern in tbught. The house of lords is an anachronism even in England. The situation makes plain that not much longer will any position or honor to which men alone have aspired be reserved to them. The door already has been opened to women. It merely remains for them to gala equal rights with men In the comforts and er-.oluine.uts of a few odd corners hitherto sacred to male.

NEWS OF OTHER WORLDS. There is nothing more inspiring than when puny man. his eye roving the universe, dares to look unc'auntei'at its wonders and speculate en what goes ou in worlds other than hla own. From Galileo to Herschel and Flammarion there have been earnest astronomers, little concerned with the paltrier happenings close at band, who have kept up this lockout in th; heaven fo" tbp rert cf aiankiJid and hav-?. from time to t'"ie, Ftve- :;i-gs Vz.i startled lu! ahmud Lv na nous. The most recent of these devoted pearchera td report something of great moment is Birkeland, the emineat physicist of Norway. It is in the la-borstory. cot through the telasccpe. that he has made hi3 great discovery- It. appears to tear out his theory of the universe; it 3oems to have drawn us a little nearer to the solution of the unfathomed mystery of existence. Dirialand believes that the universe is a vacuum, ?nd that the planets, constantly besieged by a shower of electrons shot out from the eun, give out their various puzzling lights when those electrons coma in contact with the planetary gases. What is an electron? We only know it Is a form of energy, the smallest expressible. Jn his laboratory Blrkeland haa set Kttia metallic balls revolving in a vacuum chamber. Ha ls bombarded ' them with electrons, and then has Introduced a variety cf gases. He reproduced tho rings of Saturn, the canal3 of Mars, the Aurora Borealia of the Earth. If he has found thu gases that envelop our sister planets, snd has proven the universe a vast vacuum dotted, with little revolving balls, this is a help to future generations of our scientists. It enables them to calculate what needs to be cvercome when man, r.o longer puny, but the master, 6hall et his foot in ether wprlda and wrest it3 secrets from the universe. It is a tiny step, perhaps, but it is a step.

avail him little against an overwhelming force of soviet. troop3. Great Britain is not disposed to give the anilbcishevlsta of Russia any assltunce sincu peace buabean made with Poland, and it is bald that Italy U even opposed to establishing an embargo against tho soviet government in southorn Europe. With the defeat ol General Wrangel little hope for the immediate salvation ot l.V!-s-ia will be entertained There la nothing to Indicate that sai effort to throw oft the tyranny of bo.'phevism will be al tempted buoa if the work of General Wrangel should fail. Economic conditions are very bad in Ru-Maia. and the niashus may pe driver; to the point of revolt, but this would or.ly brinj,' on greater repression on tho part of the soviet It aders. Western Europe has no policy iu dealing with Russia, except to keep hands off and await the titmwhen the situation may beo.me so bad t hat action of ton.ejiind miy be forced i' teems uui'oriuuate thai Ihe Russian people should work great injury upon theni-i-.,!vs by ci il vva r after having reiuiert-u so mti'.-h serl."e to i he vvorld in the initial days of the greui war. SONS OF PRESIDENTSTbere lias never arisen in this couuu v the pioblem of t aring for the wus of preMlueuis of the I'uited Staies. These sous seem amply able to make a way each for liimself an! thN why lias usual'iv been one that lefieited credit upon their illustrious progenitors.. It is interesting to note that tbiee sons of presidents of Ihe United Straws were elei ted to state legislatures at the recent election. ' Theodore Roosevelt Jr., was reelected to the New York legislature; Robert Taf:, son of Wiiium il. Taft. was elected to the Ohio legislature, and Husseil li. Hani-?'.u. sen of Benjamin Harrision- will be a member of tiie Indiana legislature. John Quincy Adams was a son of John Adams, i.nd Benjamin Harrison a grandson of William Henry Harrison. It. usually happens that the son of. a man who hr.s made a place for himself In international and national life is handicapped by the tendency to appraise him not on his own merits, but rather to link hiiu with tiie life and works of his father. Such an estimate of character is quite likely to be an unjust one, to the one iudged. Not all the presidents of the United States had experience as members of state legislatures before becoming president, but it is a preparation that should not be despised, for it provide the opportunity of learning something of the capacity of the members to understand something of state and national problems. It wonld probably prove to be a mistake to dismiss these three sons of presidents with only passing attention. They may yet gala higher political honors than that of representing a district in a state legislature.

"They Don't Answer" SOMETIMES, when a number is asked for on the telephone, the operator reports that the number called does not answer. Experience shows that the operator is seldom mistaken. In the majority of the cases the person called is absent or not near enough to hear the telephone bell. Sometimes he is just slow in answering.

Don't answer" reports would

be greatly reduced if subscribers would be prompt hi answering when their bells ring.
