THE MODERN EXPLORER
Henry Ford and Harvey
Firestone are starting vast
plantations, in Brazil and Li-
beria respectively, to g£t their
own supply of rubber. Mean-
while, Prof. Hofmann of Ger-
many believes he has found a
way of making rubber synthe-
tically from coal by-products.
Professor Hofmann will re-
port on his experiments at a
conference at the Carnegie
Institute of Technology, Pitts-
burgh, next m\nth. At present
it is believed that his method
would not be commercially
practical; but, as President
Baker of Carnegie Tech points
out, "what today is only a re-
search worker's abstraction
may tomorrow be the basis of
a new industry."
This remark illustrates the
way in which modern civiliza-
tion differs from all former
periods of history.
Time was when the advance
nf civilization depended on
.he rovers—the men who left
the settled, established re-
gions and ventured into un-
known lands, looking for gold
minesj fertile farm lands,
tracts of timber, sites for big
cities. They expanded the
world's horizons, wiped the
old boundaries off the map
and opened for thousands of
people the opportunity to for-
get their discouragements and
make a new start in a differ-
ent scfene.
That sort of thing has pret-
ty nearly ended now. The Ore-
gon Trail is no longer a dang-
erous, glamorous pathway
through a land of dangers; it
is an easy ride on luxurious
railroad trains—or, if you
prefer, by airplane. Byrd has
tfono to explore unsettled
lands, to be sure, but nobody
expects a rush of prospectors
or homesteaders to follow him.
Our horizons cannot recede
much farther. Lndbergh could
re.-ch them all overnight.
Instead our pioneers and ex-
plorers have gone into the lab-
oratory. Our hope of material
progress now rests not on the
men who seek new lands, bu'
on oien who seek new com
binations in the bottoms of
lest tubes.
In the old days the boy

a builder of new cities whs apt.

Now he enters a school o
technology.
A cheap substitute for rub-

The dead has come to lifp.
Shades of Little Aubrey returned
to the Herald office today and de-
nied that she was dead.
She had not been burled at High-
land cemetery, Little Aubrey as-
serted. and was open-mouthed with
woiulnr when told of the recent hap-
penings including hor funeral, the
raising of a fund for, and the subse-
quent dedication of, a grave stone
on which is engraved her name.
After several minutes of glorious
reminiscing with Mother Elizabeth
(formerly known as Archie) and the
younger members of the cockroach
family, Aubrey retired to the family
home under the sate and explained
her absence by introducing the "bov
friend" who during the absence had
become her husband.
The. unexplained absence, Aubrey
told her mother while the young-
sters clustered around the latter'a
knee tor knees,) was caused by tho
jealous-hearted Reginald, shiek of
the Phillips camp cockroaches to
whom she was secretly engaged. Th"
latter has been slowly pining away
in isolation under the I'antex board-
ing house, and could not be reached
today for a statement.
Little Aubrey feared Reggie's re-
action to her marriage with the Cow-
boy Cockroach, who had galloped in
from the 6S66 Ranch and stole her
heart, but her infatuation for the
latter would not allow her to glvo
him up so she eloped with the new
suitor and the couple spent their
honeymoon under the ranch houso
feasting on the remains of t-boiin
steaks.
As was the case in the recent "re-
turn of Treetop Moore." no one
knows whose body rests in Little
Aubrey's grave at Highland ceme-
tery.
