WHY TaE WIND CHANGES.
tCassell's Magazine

tCassell's Msgazinel
That the changing of the direction of
the wind is due to the shifting of the sit
uations of the greatest heat upon the
earth is substantially proved by the fact
that in certain regions Of the earth's sur
face, where the situations Of the greatest
heat and cold do not alter the direction
in which they lie to each other, the wind
does not change, but always blows in the
same direction from one day to another,
and all the year round. This occurs in
the great open space of the ocean, where
there is no land to get heated up by the
sunshine of the day, and to get cool by
the scattering OF the heat at night. In
those spaces, for the vast breadth of many
hundred miles, the sun shines down day
after day upon the surface OF the sea,
heating the water most along the mid
ocean track, which lies Immediately be-
meath its burning rays, as it passes across
from east to west.
This midway track of the strongest
sunshine crosses the wide ocean as a belt
or zone that spreads some way to either
side of the equator. Throughout this
midway the cooler and heavier air on
either hand drifts in from the north and
from the south, and then rises up. as it
becomes heated from the sun, where the
two currents meet. In both instances,
however, in consequence of the spinning
round of the earth, the advancing wind
acquire westward as well as an equator
rial zone, where the onward movement of
| the sea-covered surface OF the earth is
performed with the velocity of thou
sand miles an hour, does not Immediately
acquire this full rate Of speed, and lags
back upon the ocean, so that it appears
as drift toward the west as well as to.
ward the equator.
On the north side of the equator the
wind blows all the year round from the
northeast, and on the south side from the
southeast, both in the Atlantic and Pa
cific oceans. These steady and unchang
ing ocean winds are called the trade
winds, on account of the great service
they rendered to ships carrying merchan
disc across these portions of the sea. Ii
sailing from England to the Cape of Gooc
Hope, through the entire length of tn
Atlantic ocean, ships, before they reacl
the equator, have to pass over broa'
space, where the strong winds are Away
steadily blowing from the northeast
That is the region of the northeast trades
They then traverse a space near tn
equator itself, where the northeast win
ceases to blow, and where the air is yer
still and calm. aud they afterward con
to region south Of the equator, whel
south winds are continually blowing froI
southeast. That is the region Of tt
southeast trades.

SCHOOL EXHIBITION.

The School Exhibition at Browns Hall
last Monday evening was the finest affair
cf the kind that has ever taken place in
Phoebe. The hall was crowded, and was
very handsomely decorated with pictures
aud evorgrcens and much good taste was
displayed by School Trustee Gelabert,
who superintendent TIE decoration. The
dialogues were rendered in an excellent
manner and were well selected. The
pieces spoken were very appropriate and
their delivery good. The singing by the
school children seemed to captivate the
audience and the voices of the little ones
sounded very sweet The song Paddy
Grant" by John Lynch, took the house
by storm. The singer was perfect in the
character of Paddy Grant, and received
great applause from the audience. After
the closing Of the exhibition by the
school, several of the larger boys gave a
short minstrel entertainment ON their own
account. After this the hall was cleared
and dancing commenced, and the lovers
of the light fantastic kept it up until 4
o'clock next morning.
1t was stated in the hall that the funds

carry their prejudices as far against

IN this county, it is the firm belief of the
RECORD that the County Superintendent
OF Schools should at least attempt to put
a stop to all such nonsense. He would
be perfectly justifyable in revoking the
certificates OF the four Mormons teaching
schools in this county. Men who preach
polygamy, advising the young and the
old to practice it, certainly do not teach
morality, therefore themselves are not of
good moral character; they also advise
the people of their faith, at the instance

RECORD is of the opinion that it is the

county official fails to do his duty, it is
our belief that he had better step down
