Looking at the earth with the naked
eve from a distance of 200 miles, the
outlines Of continents could not only be
clearly apparent, but rivers, small
lakes, towns and railroads would be
easily perceived. This distance is little
more than that to which the terres-
trial atmosphere extends, and if no
clouds interviewed it would be easily
possible to distinguish forests from
prairies and even to mark off the areas
covered by certain crops.
Large fields of ripe wheat could be
distinguished from pieces of woodland,
the colors of the two being radically
different. Between a big field Of ripe
corn and one of grass or meadow the
difference would also be apparent.

Princeton the ball and perhaps the
game. This was the nearest that
Princeton came to scoring during the
entire game. Twice Yale placed the
Princeton's five-yard line, only to be
thrown back for loss.
Barnard was injured and Ayers took
his place. Booth came off the field and
