Absolute Zero.

BY absolute zero" is meant the low
est temperature compatible with heat
that point of temperature. in fact. at
which body would be wholly depriv-
I'd of heat and at which the particles
whose motion constitutes heat would
be at rest. This temperature is sup
posed TO be about pa degrees c. or 4G1
degrees +.
The term heat is here used in it's
scientific sense, for as men use the
word in everyday language its signifi-
canoe depends on the temperature Of
the human body. Men call warm
everything with a temperature higher
than their own and cold" all those
objects which have less heat than they.
In reality. however. the coolest body
known to man Is far from being utter
~ without heat. Ice, for example. has
heat. only in a degree so much below
mans temperature that one can scarce
ly imagine it to be anything but cold"
term which actually implies com
paratively low degree of heat.
Accordingly the zero of thermometers
is only a conventional point marking a
certain degree of heat. There seems TO
be a point. hOWever. where heat ceases
absolutely, and this point it is which is
known in chemistry as the absolute
zero"

The Inner Door,

More disasters come TO fraternal or
gnizations from factional fights and
internal discussions than from all out
side influences combined. Three
thousand years ago prophet OF Israel
warned the warning children OF the
desert that house divided against
itself cannot stand, and this is special
" true OF all the secret Orders. Every
member OF subordinate body has a
right and opportunity to present his
views as to what he considers the best
interests of the Order. But that his
views will be coincided In by the 9TH
ers Is entirely another proposition.
As Mark Twain humorously expresses
1T, 1T is difference OF opinion that
makes horse races and you are cer-
tain to find ideas incompatible with
those you hold, expressed by intel
llgent brothers who are just as much
interested in the welfare of the lodge
as you are. The only way in which
these differences can be adjusted is by
vote, and one of the first, last and
greatest lessons to be learned In the
lodge-room is how to take defeat.
Winning with modesty is an easy &C
compllshment; the rub comes in learn
ing to lose with grace, and the great
est accomplishment of all is to abide
by the rules in every case. The lodge
unit is invincible when supported by
an united membership, but the ledge
unit is impracticable when the mem
bership is divided ~ factional fights
Guard well the inner door, for it is from
within that all trouble and disaster
comes. The Chronicle.
