180 CELL INTELLIGENCE THE CAUSE OF EVOLUTION 



The boy drew the permit from his pocket. The man 

 examined it and frowned in perplexity and anger. 



"Why did you run when you had this permit?" he 

 asked. 



"To let the other boy get away," was the reply. "He 

 didn't have none." 



The human mind like the animal mind is the united 

 action of the brain cells. In the human brain they number 

 several hundred million. It is the impression and infor- 

 mation received by these cells and stored away for future 

 reference which make up the human mind. This power 

 and ability of the brain cells and all other cells to store 

 away information ' for future use we call memory, and 

 upon this power all reason and judgment is based. With- 

 out memory there could be no judgment or reason, as we 

 understand these words. We shall see later that all the 

 cells of the body have the power of memory. 



It is now being recognized that many lower animals 

 and birds have keener senses than man, such as smell, 

 hearing and sight. I can remember from experience in 

 hunting geese from pits, that their sense of sight was 

 considerably better than mine. The following also seems 

 to indicate that the sense of hearing is keener in birds 

 than in man : 



"British journals have commented on the strange dis- 

 turbance among the pheasants in northeastern England 

 while the naval battle in the North Sea was in progress 

 on January 24. The sound of the cannon could not be 

 heard in many places along the English coast, but it is 

 evident that the birds heard it and were greatly agitated 

 by it. This is another interesting proof of the fact that 

 keen as are the senses of men, those of many of the lower 

 animals are much keener. 



"The human ear can not hear sounds that are produced
