Rare '&ky Show'
Slaled to Occupy
Stage Next Week
JTingsiJe Seats Only 1,000,.
000 Miles Away; It's Not
So Much Says Local Astronomer.
A rare "sky show" will be staged
la the heavens early next week.
Shooting stars will be part of th
scenic effect and a meteoric shower
will probably be included in th
divertiscmcnts.
This will be the first performance
in JJ years a revival being put on
by heavenly agents three times
each century.
June 27 or a little earlier, which
may make it Sunday or Monday
night, is the time set for the big pro
auction.
It accompanies the periodic ap
pearance of the comet Pons, which
v ill cross Winnecke on that date,
Nearest ringside seats on earth
will be 1.000.000 miles from th
stage, but if the night is clear earth
dwellers may view the show, accord
ing to M. V. Robins, local meteor
oloeit.
The last show was a fluke. A lot
of clouds KOt in before the footlight
and obscured the view for the earth
dwellers. No admission was charged,
no few complained to the 'manage
xneluV.Jut cat-calls and hisses went
up from learned professors and
astronomers whohad looked forward
for more than three decades to see
' injT'the show."
Meteoric showers occurred in
1833. 1866 and 1899, but the one
scheduled for Sunday is an "extra
number.
The soarks that fly will be due to
Pons swishing his tail so as to strike
Winnecke.
The fighting Pons will miss hit-
t na Earth by 1Z.000.000 miles.
Father Rigge is "knocking" the
cominflr show.
He regards it as some "highbrows"
do the movies.
' "Not much of an entertainment
I don't think it can be seen with
the naked eye," he said. "I wouldn't
bother to "see it even."

to start a Ford or any other car in
the coldest weather. You can use
the very cheapest grade of gasoline
or half gasoline and half kerosene
and still get more power and more
mileage than you now get from the
highest test gasoline. Many Ford
owners say they now get as high as
45 to 50 miles to a gallon of gaso
line.' So sure are the manufacturers
of the immense saving their new
carburetor will make that they of
fer to send it on 30 days' trial to
every car owner. Can be put on or
