WONDERFUL GROWTH World Takes off Hat To Two American Scientists-No More Wars. CWritten by Alice Wally 1930. The growth of the infant country, Skootare, has paralyzed the world. This empire sprung up like Phoenix from the ashes of old Europe, who remained too infirm to combat with this new enemy. Skootare, these two years, has made the best of her opportunities. She has gained new territory by simply reaching out and taking it. Her army is the best trained in the world, her defenses the most complete. Skootare, slowly reaching out, has gradually gathered to her fold half the countries ofEurope and turned convetous eyes towards America. One day this old blood soaked earth looked up aghast, in dumb speechless amazement, for Skootare had lossened a thunder bolt in the form of a decalration of war upon America. While Skootare was moblizing her vast forces on land and sea, two American scientests, Miss Mary Lacy and Miss Athleen Catterson, were busily experimenting in their New York laboratories. The next day they were closeted with the President A secret meeting of the Cabinet was called. Congress was summoned to a special session A formula was given to several munition plants, with orders to turn out within the next twenty-four hours, 16,000,000 bombs. These bombs were duly turned over to the government, and almost before the American people realized what had happened, submarines and armed zeppelins were on their way to Skootare. That night came a wirless saying that the army had landed in Skootare and the engagement would take place the next morning. Tuesday morning, the two arnies faced each other for the attack. The command was given, and the enemy advanced upon us. Suddenly our air-ships swept low over the enemy, hurled their bombs and darted up- wards again, For an instant there was a soft blur, then a peculiar penetrating odor filled the atmosphere. Instead of hearing the shrieks and groans of the wounded and dying the air was filled with howls and yells of men in helpless fits of laughter. Erstwhile enemies, thirsting for one an- other's blood,were now strolling about with their armssabout each others' necks. From all over the fields came the sounds of singing and laughter. A truce was called, negotiations started, and peace, now and forever, declared. The secret of those bombs Cwhich are nothing more than laughterized airj has been sold to all countries of the world, and thanks to those two American women, the war lords shall never trouble ,us more.
