HUMAN RACE NOW H ITS_ INFANCY Washington.—The human race now is in the earliest infancy of an existence that may last for 1.000, 000,000,000 years in a universe made up approximately 20,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000 stars in a flight ilke that of a 'great flock of celestial swans, which already., has lasted roughly, close to 10,000.000,000,000 years. Such is the picture of man’'', place in creation presented in the annual report of the Smithsonian lnstltu by J. M. Jeans, celebrated astrono mer and secretary pf the Royal So ciety of Great Britain. Mr. Jeans pictures man as just beginning to peep over the edge of his cradle, and concludes his pic ture of life, space and time with the astonishing statement: "The picture it sees may be mere ly a creation of Its own mind in which nothing reRlly exists except itself. The universe which we study with such care may be a dream and we brain cells In the mind of the dreamer." Man. he says, has existed at the most about 300,000 years on a planet about 2,000,000,000 years old with every likelihood that conditions still will be suitable for human life a million million years hence, al though the years will be longer and the climate colder. A very gloomy view of the future, Mr. Jeans ob serves, would give man a life ■■pan of 2,000,000,000 years. Romance Is Renewed After Fifteen Years Coldwater, Mich.—Twenty years ago Jack K.
