It is 'a well-known fact - that without the heat which we receive from the sun, life on this earth would be impossible. Century af- ter century the sun has been ra- '"diating * into space an immense quantity of heat of which the earth |. receives only an infintismal part, and 'it is interesting to look back on the various explanations which scientists have offered to account for. this continual supply. A theory much in voque some "+ years ago was that the sun gener- ated its heat by continual contrac- 'tion and it is not very difficult to calculate that the diameter of the sun would have to diminish tne necessary output. This would give the sun a maximum life of about $0,000,000 years. Recently, however, a study of the radium content of rocks on tne earth shows that they have been in existence for 1,000,000,000 years. Other investigationns also lead us fo believe that the first fig- ure is too short for the life of our sun, Another theory has been that vast showers of meteors falling on the. sun supply its heat. This has been ruled out of court as it nec: espitatess an almost impossible 'aumber of meteors around the sun. ~The theory accepted by most #s- tronomers now is that somewhere fn thes un's interior matter is being changed into radiation. This would mean that the sun loses 4,200,000 tons every secofid but even. at this rate it will exist for 15,000,000,000 years, a period that agrees with geological data. The exact process of the transformation of matter into radiation is not yet understood but it seems cler that it takes place onl yat immense temperatures such as found at the interior of our sun.

Full moon is at 3.24 a.m., Tuesday morning. On Satur- day neqt the moon rises at 9.15 a. m., and sets after sunrise. : The Planets Mercury is not well placed for observation at the 'present time since it is very near the sun in the evening sky. : Venus is the brightest planet in the heavens, and appears in the morning sky, rising three ana a half hours before the sun. It is situated in the constellation Gemn- ini, to the south of Castor and Pol- through the stars. . Mars has become lost in the light of the setting sun and will not be wel lin view again until it enters the morning sky. Jupiter is in Taurus, near Alde- heran., and rises about midnight. It is a brilliant object in the morn- ing shy while its four major satel- lites are interesting to boserve with a telescope of any size. The second satellite passes behind the tlanet at 12.25 a.m. Tuesday and reappears again 'at 2.48 a.m, Saturn is still a beautiful objece in. the southern evening sky but now sets shortly after midnight and so should be observed fairly early in the evening. It is a bright yellow star in Ophiuchus,: just north of the constellation Sagittar- ius.

It' is probably a fact that the Nanking government has succeed- ed in making a start for a better living condition for the people, but the bald fact is that the people the peasants--live on a lower state of degradation than the beasts of the fields, To revert to the Zeitung's re- port, we quote the following: Resolutions and laws in China amount to the same nullity. 'The truth is quite different. The rea- lity is that little children--to say | nothing of grown women and men | --have to work from fourteen to | fifteen hours a day. | For this they receive a wage | that would scarcely suffice to keep a four-footed animal alive, The houses of the masses of he peo= ple are but pig pens.
