In Hope of Forecasting Weather j From the Chicago Journal of Commerce Of an importance beyond all estimate is the theory which ivell-known scientists assert to be true, that the weather of the earth is affected by sun-spots and that a study of these spots will permit long-distance weather forecasting. Business would be affected immeasurably by such forecasting. The growers of crops would be immensely benefited. Men at tea and on inland waters would be enabled to avoid great storms. Man knows the weather as a whimsical power, coming and going as it wills. If he could only foresee how and when it will tome and go, his life would be made much easier. Nor would this be the sum of his benefit. If wo should learn how sun-spots affect the weather, is it not conceivable that we should succeed in learning how to offset the evil effects of the sun-spots? Artificial control of the weather would seem to be*by no means impossible. Sponsor for the sun-spot theory is Dr. C. G. Abbot, head of the Astro-Physical Observatory of the Smithsonian institution. As he presents it, it is more than a theory; it is a demonstrated fact. Dr. Abbot reveals that for more than a year the Smithson ian institution has been conducting experiments which have per mitted accurate weather forecasts for New York to be made three days in advance. According to Dr. Abbot, approximate tempera tures have been accurately predicted for periods of from fifteen to twenty-five days ahead. Although Dr. C. F. Marvin, head of the weather bureau, be lieves the results of the Smithsonian experiments are so far too in conclusive to permit their use in the making of regular weather forecasts, Dr. Abbot finds nothing inconclusive in the experi ments. Every day the Smithsonian institution receives telegraphed reports from two sun observatories which have been established, one on Mount Harqua, Hale, Arizona, the other at Montezuma, near Calama, Chile. By use of recently devised instruments, Dr. Abbot says it has been possible to measure solar radiation. These measurements, as well as daily observations of sun spots, are telegraphed to the Smithsonian institution, which has found that the curves of solar radiation have a definite relation to temperature and barometric pressure. The effects are not the same everywhere on the earth. The institufiQn declares the earth has two zones, on one of which the effects of the curves of solar radiation are precisely opposite to the effects of those same curves in the other zone. The authenticity of these statements is of course not beyond dispute. But the statements have been made by leading men of science and are worthy of serious attention. TODAY BY ARTHUR BRI8BANE A Zulu chief, with huge war shield covered with zebra skin lashed to his back, muffler wide open and a proud look on his black face, went to greet the Prince of Wales In South Africa, riding a motorcycle. That would have interested the old Zulu king that died In exile, a prl Zulu king that died In exile, a pris oner of the British. It also Interests this question: What will be the power of the races we rse pleased to call savage or bar barous when they learn the use of all eur modern machinery for conquering distance and conquering other human beings? Fifty years irom now every Chinese ind Japanese boy, 16 years old, will be able to run a flying machine If the Mikado's advisers and the powerful men of China wish to have It so. Those that call themselves the higher races have been protected by the fact that human beings have been fastened to their corner of earth by the power of gravitation.

S. W. Straus, who has done more than any one man to stimulate build ing In the United States, declared that during 1925 the United States build ing program will amount to $6,000, 000,000. If you own any land you will he interested In the advice that Mr. Straus constantly gives to younger men, “get some real estate, and when you have got' it, keep It," Nobody has any conception of the future values of real estate well chosen in the great cities. Abd-el-krlm, chief and ruler of the Riffs, is preparing for heavier at tacks on the French. Abd-el-krim, if alive, will be a sadder and wiser man in a few weeks. The French can easily withdraw their men on foot from range of Abd el-krlm’s guns. That they will do to avoid making good Frenchmen tar A Job fer Two. From Youth's Companion. In the recent drive to raise money for the Redcllffe college endowment fund, an alumna of that college em ployed her nephew and another small boy to sell some excellent toilet soap among the homes in their neighborhood. "Why are you selling this soapt" in quired a woman at a house in Johnny's district. "To raise three million for BadcUffe," was the prompt reply. "Three million dollars!" the women gets for barbarian bullets. Then, at their convenience, they will fly over Abd-el-krlm's territories and drop persuasive arguments In the W|iy of gas and explosives. Those Ruffian warriors of North Africa have plenty of courage and some Intelligence. They descend from the men that conquered and ruled Spain and nearly conquered the who!* world. But In their war xvlth France, af ter, perhaps, a few deceptive "vic tories," they will find themselves as helpless as our red Indians were with their bows and arrows against the guns of the white men. The Rev. Dr. Straton and some big men In hia congregation believe that the church should be made usefully self supporting. They planned to mortgage thelf valuable church property in New York City, build where their church now stands a great skyscraper that would be a church and at the samf time a money making institution. Now conservative members of the congregation secure an Injunction and Dr. Straton, until further orders, cannot build his self supporting church. Wouldn’t It help religion to provt that the churdh can adopt Itself to modern conditions, and in an age when the test of everything is ability to make money, prove its money making ability? When in New York, you see Trin ity church. Looking east down Wall Btreet toward the river, you see a church entirely surrounded by glgan tlo buildings that tower above it, as tbe furniture In a room towers above the bouses from a child Noah's ark! . In this material age It might add to the prestige of 'religion if Trinity ohurch were torn down and a sky scraper, 75 or 100 stories high, dominating all others, were made to take Its place. R. F.

Red Herring Acroaa Trail This phrase, originally ‘‘to draw a red herring across the track,” is fre quently heard in everyday speech to signify n means' used to divert one’s attention, to throw one off the scent by Injecting into the matter in hand a new object upon which the atten tion is then focused.
