LEAP YEAR PARrY.-Much interest

LEAP YEAR PARTY.-Much interest
we may say fluttering interest among the
bachelors-and lively anticipation is
manifest in our gay circles, over the prep.
arations for what will undoubtedly be tho
event of the season, Leap Year dance
at Wilcox Opera House, on Monday
evening, next. The arrangement is en-
tirely in the hands of the ladies who will
avail themselves Of the full privileges of
the occasion: inviting their partners,
paying the bills, &c. The painful solicit
tation observable on the countenances
of the poor fellows who have not received
invitations, and the tricksy light which
plays on the faces of those who have, are
studies for an artist We arc requested
to state that dancing will not commence
until half past 8 O'Clock. aat "a

Tho Man and tho Squirrel.

The readers OF the BULLETIN VIII re-
member that mention was made in its
columns some weeks since, ola great
and all-absorbing controversy which, ut
the time, was ut its white heat in our
community The issue was debated on
either side with great ardor and stubborn
ness, until at last it was resolved to call
in very high authority to determine it,
professors in two of the oldest and most
prominent colleges at the east, no less.
The gentlemen addressed for u solution
of the problem were, Prof. Smell, occu.
plying the chair of Mathematics and
Natural Sciences in Amherst College, and
Prof Young, Prof of Astronomy and
Natural Philosophy, Dartmouth College;
we give the answers below. First, how
ever, let US briefly state the problem. A
man walks around tree, on the further
side of the trunk of which clings SPUR.
rel. As the man moves, so does the
squirrel, each preserving his relative pc
sition to the other. The question is;
does the man, in going around the tree,
also 60 around the squirrel! To this,
Prof Smell responds as follows:
AMHERST COLLEGE, Jan. 16, 1872.
Mr. CLAKK-Dear Sir:-Yours of Sd
inst, was duly received l do not see
how there is room for discussion on the
question proposed. Ifa man goes rouEd
the trunk of q tree, and q squirrel is on
that trunk, of course the man goes round
the squirrel. The fact that the squirrel
also goes round the trunk, cannot alter
the fact, SO far as can see At one
time, the man was north Of the squirrel,
then he was east Of him. then south, and
then scest; he was successfully, in ali d.
rectiOus from the squirrel, as truly as he
was in all directions successfully from
the center of the tree. l should as soon
think Of questioning whether, if man
walks round house, he walks round u
person who is moving about in the house.
If the question in the Scientific american
WAS intended for q puzzle, it seems to me
to be an uncOmmonly shallow one.
Yours truly,
ES. SMELL.
Prof Young's reply, If not SO positive
ly expressed, is strong enough on the
same side:
SOuTM HADLEY, MASS, Jan. 20, 1872.
Nix. PALMER-Dear Sir:-As the man
in your question is first north, then east,
then south, then west of your squirrel,
lie would be said, relatipe to the squirrel
to move around him. So also, the SPUR.
rel goes round the man. In general,
whenever the line, giving two points,
sweeps around in plane, either point
may, without improperly, be said to re.
volvc around the other, as is the case OF
a double star. More usually, however,
they are both said to revOlvc around
their common center Of gravity, or around
any fired point in the Inc that joins them
the center of the tree, in this case.
Yours very truly,
.ta G. A. YOUNG,
Thus it will be seen, that both these
distinguished gentlemen favor the afiir
native of the question But we think
that the advocates Of that side Of the
controversy were hardly prepared to-
the assertion in Prof Young's letter that
not only does the man go round the
squirrel, but the latter also goes around
the man. Yet it is the only logical Sc
qucnce Of the, position taken.

Facts Concerning Awards on Sew

In recent Sewing Machine advertisement, the
title Of which read thus: '.Thc grandest list OF
First Premiums ever awarded to any Sewing Ma.
chine in Iowa, were awarded to the Howe" the
reader win notice that the signature Agent as.
ssrts that the Howe took the First Premium At
the Buchanan County Fair in 1871. Az positive
contradiction of this and proof that It is false,
We publish below the report Of committee con-
corning awards on Sewing Machines and Sewing
Machine work, as recorded by the Secretary.
INDEPENDENCE, Iowa, Jan. II, 1879.
For the purpose Of correctly informing the In.
habtants OF Buchanan county, the decision Ol

Independence, Sept. 9th, 18th and 29th 1871,
hereby certify that the report OF the committee
shows that = diploma was awarded to each, the
Singer and Howe Machines, and that the only
First Premium awarded to Sewing Machine work,
was awarded to the .isSinger Machine" All re-
potts contrary to this are incorrect.
(Signed) JED LAKE,
Scc'y of Buchanan Co. Agr1 Society.
We noticed under the same title that the Howe
claimed the First Premium ut the State Fair, held
at Cedar Rapids. II the reader who may be inter-
ested in this matter, will call at the Singer Office
ha will be shown the report Ut the committee vt
the State Fair, signed by them, that the only First
Premium awarded for best family Sewing Machine,
was awarded to the Singer Manufacturing Com
pany. Not being posted In regard to the other
Fairs stated in the before mentioned advertise
mcnt, we are not prepared to question them, they
being 0flittle note we leave them to the option
Of the reader, who will doubtless take into con-
sideration the misrepresentation made In men,
ton of the State Fair, and our own in Buchanan
county. before being convinced that they are sub
stantially correct. We are happy to inform our
friends and the public in general, that the ''Sng
er" averages selling every working day in the
week, supported by correct account Of sales and
