SEA SCORPIONS EIGHT FEET LONG
They Flourished on Earth of Ancient Life.
This sketch shows the artist's conception of life on the sea bottom in
the Paleozoic or era of ancient life. Giant scorpions and trilobites were the
chief terms.
Secrets of. Science.
By, David Dietz.
The Era of Ancient Life or the
Paleozoic Era began 400,0e0,000 years
'ago. Geologists. believe it lasted for
about 200,000,000 years.
The geologist divides the era up into
e. number of periods end gives each a
many-syllabled name. But though 'we
fled these names hard to pronounce,
we must remember that the advance
of science is only peseible because of
the scientist'•s habit of classifying and
labelling everything.
The first period is known as the
Cambrian period. The fossils in :she
rocks tell us that in this period the
ooeans 'were, teeming with life, al-
-though no true fist had appeared.
There were also §.ig crawling things
upon the sea -floor. The chief class of
these were called trilobites. They
looked like the little wood -lice found
in forests to -day, except that they
grew to a length of two feet or more.
There were also gigant'c sea -scorpions
upon the ocean flcor. These attained
a length of eight or nine feet.
Then calve an .earth movement
which elevated the land and increased
the rate of flow in the rivers: This
ushered in the next period, 'which
geologists call the Ordovician.
True fish, with backbones; made
their appearance in . this era. Bryan
to :the contrary, those fish were the
earliest ancestors > of xaan.
in the next period, the 'Silurian, we
find the plants slowly spreading out of
water and for the first time finding a
foot hold on land. The Silurian period
was one of great aridity and shallow
water dried up. That meant.. that
, plants and animals left out of water
died by the millions.
But gradually some plants and ani
mals evolved that were able to exist
1 out of water. So we find land plants 1
evolving first, followed by scorpions !
that could exist out of water.
I The next period is cal ed, the De -
1 vonian. In this we find the third great
nvasfan of the land. Amphibians, an
cestors of the present frogss newts and
salamanders, made their' appearance
inthis age.
13y now land plants had a good start
and soon we find dense vegetation
covering the earth. This ushered in
the two periods known as the Mississi-
ppian and the Pennsylvanian period.
During them, great tree ferns and
the like, flourished. Many of them had
stems or trunks a hundred feet high.
Thick tangles' of mosses sand, green
slime covered the marshy areas. The
amphibians began to increase in size.
Some types attained t.h,e size of pre-
sent-day donkeys.
Large insects, four -winged creatures
like dragon flies but with wing spans
of two feet, also appeared.
Then came a. "revolution" in the his-
tory of the earth. A great ice age set-
tled down on earth. This is known as
the Silurian eerier].
The great forest disappeared. Their
remains eoushttute th•e coal deposits
which we dig up today. True reptiles,
back -boned but cold-blooded animals
which can live entirely away .from the
Water, began to appear.
The Era of Ancient Life was' at an
end.

During the last few years the flag-
stone path has come into favor. It is
a charming addition to any garden,
and when edged with box or low -flow-
ering plants, and the •cra,cke between
iter atones are filled with low -growing
flowers', it is ie. reality a garden; An it:
self, Many artioles appear in the
magazines concerning the proper
plaints for use between the flagstones.
The authors' neurally • do net think of
the practical oo ndltione, and merely
give a Iong fiat of low -growing plants.
As a result, people keep putting in
their walks such plants as forget-me-
note,
orget me -
note, primroses, English daisies and
California poppies, and wonder why
the flowers do not bloom nor the plants
thrive.
If a beautiful y p
allow primrose is
growing between •the stones of a walk,
and someone •comes along and steps on
it, the plant is ruined. The petals are
delicate, the stem is brittle, the leaves
are crisp, The same is true with the.
other plants named. No plants should
be planted in walks which cannot
stand the primary 112,8 of a walk—to

One should keep one'a primroses
and forget-me-nots for the front 'rows
of the border, where they bloom and
thrive, spreading all over the mellow

the shade of a moist wall.
The list of plants fit for Ilagstone
planting ie in reality very short, Only
one plum which can easily be pro -
•cured is able to withstand constant
