AN IMPROVED POLISHING WHEEL,
Roswell c. George of Barre has been
granted patent on an improved stone
polishing wheel. Mr.. George was EN-
ployed at the machine shop of Smith,
Whitcomb & Cook, and he has made them
the aSSiEneeS so that the patent VIII APP
pear in their name. The wheel Is a great
Improvement on those now in use in most
of the stone sheds as it is possible to
polish to the edge joint of stone with
ii. whereas most OF the wheels polish
only within few inches of the edge joint
or corner of IA stone. Another advantage
derived from the wheel is that the polish
ing supplies, or iron can be thrown on
the top Of the wheel while In motion as
II is formed OF two open spirals running
In opposite directions and meeting in the
center, fastened only by n bar over the
spirals at the diameter. The wheels now
in use are made solid with the spiral
shaped affair, inaccessible from the top
OF the wheel the iron being placed on
the work. Still another important inn
provement Is the fact that the wheel in
motion does not have tendency to
throw the polishing mixture away from
the wheel as the old ones do, this being
due to the arrangement of the splrals.
The latest mentioned function is very
important in that it is matter OF econo-
my to the poisher as the ingredients of
polishing mixtures are very expensive.

MAN WITH A THEORY.
Indiana Philosopher Thinks the Sun
Is Inhabited.
says the Big Luminary Is Not n Mass
of Fire, IN Has Been Generally
supposed-Reasons for
His Belief.

San eastern astronomer for whom /
have the profoundest respect" said
Alexander Young, the aged philoso-
pher of Laporte, Ind, who clings to
the belief that the sun is inhabited,
declares hat the sun is a ball OF
fire encircled by a shell which gener-
ates the heat; that be has proved that
the sun is too hot TO allow Of any hab-
itation there, and that the existence
of vegetation on that planet is to any
intelligent beyond the
range of possibility. In taking this
view the eminent Scientist has mere
ly adopted the conclusions Of his fore
during many centuries and
has committed the fundamental err
ror of attaching the results of his
valuable observations to a prehistoric
theory instead Of examining that the
DRY itself in the light Of his discover
les, and those of others"
With this introduction, Mr.. Young
proceeded to elaborate his views,
which are based on a long study Of
books, including the latest, and on ex-
TENDED observations made by himself.
He does not intend or expect to reyo-
lutionize the science of astronomy by
his recent announcement of reasons
for believing there is life on the sun,
but neither does he feel that his OBJ
scure position places him under a
command of silence If he has opiu-
ions and can advance arguments in
their support.
Putting aside the fire notion and
seeking a theory with which all the
established facts could be harmonized,
Mr.. Young was led irresistibly to the
result that the sun is not a central
source of heat and light, that it is not
@ globe of fire, that its surface is not
a fiame-swept waste. Instead of being
a flaming or incandescent sphere Of

FRENCH-CANADIAN L A
II Ia the Creation of "A Loyal Prizes

Recently there was unfurled and
flung to the breeze at Montreal a flag
new to the present generation, but not
to those Of bygone days. Many per-
sons who had occasion to pass along
Notre Dame street had reason to re-
mark: "What is this?"
1t was none other than the new flag
Of the Professionalism people, and
which, it is hoped, will be adopted in
perpetuity as the emblem Of the race
which first settled the country. For
some years past there has been agita-
ton afoot to drop the tri-color Of
France, as il does not really denote any
other allegiance to France than lan-
guage among Freneh-Canadians.

Canadian priest to start a movement

lett as monuments any number thigh
hills, which, with the aeapes Of time.
have been worn away until at he pres
ent time nothing but a series of con-
1c~al-shaped Tpuys,' or mountains, re-
main. One of the most picturesque
and attractive to the traVelerin France
to-day is located al lie Iuy en- Velay,
situated 70 miles southwest Of Lyons
and made up OF a continuation of the
old town and the neH surrounding vii
lagos, having il 1910 a population of
some 20, 793.
The conical mountain, called the
Rocher of st. Michel, is a volcanic
rock, which was once probably sur
rounded by a cone of scoria coming
originally from the throat of the vol
cano. This has been denuded SO that
only the solid rock of the throat or
pipe is left.
The Druid stronghold, once an islet,
was the scene of the apparition of st.
Michael, in 70S, and became the seat
of a great monastery, which, half
church of God, half fortress, has mem
cries of Henrys l., III. and V. of Eng
land, the last being successfully re-
sisted in W. sieges. The revolution
transformed this celebrated place of
pilgrimage into a prison, and such it
remained until 1863. In 1874 it was de-
clared a historic monument, and large
sums have been spent on it's restora-
ton. The buildings included the
church, built in 1140 and remodeled
in 1921; the great cloisters, built in
1928; the Hall of the Chevalier' where
Louis XI. in 1869 founded the +, der of
ST. Michael, and the monastery proper,
called La Mervielle from its huge
north wall of the thirteenth century,
246 feet long and los feet high.
The town of lie Puy en- Velay stands
on the steep slope of Mt. Anis, from
the summit of which starts up precip-
|itously the baSaltic mass called Mont
Corneille, crowned by a colossal figure
of the Virgin, SO feet high, made of
Russian cannon brought from Sebas
topol. The male Inhabitants of the
town take pride in the manufacture
of bells. while the weaving OF lace and
thread work Of all kinds occupy the
attention of the women.

lifeless matter ii Is a habitable and
therefore of necessity an inhabited
planet, much a. tie earth is. Observa-
tons with the solar spectrum. the
golarscope and TIE solar e@lectroscope
have given him a new and beautiful
idea Of tie universe and of Gods hand
iwork therein.
In brief, without laying down his
line of reasoning step by step, Mr..
Young has reached the conclusion that
the sun is the universal source and
center of electrical energy, nDt of
heat. Immediately surrounding the
u is a conductive atmosphere, out
side of which and surrounding it is
a nonconductive atmosphere, the same
being true Of the earth and some other
planets. The c~onverging streams of
electricity passing into the II and
the diyerging streams passing out
into the vast regions of interstellar
space meet with resistance in the outer
solar atmosphere and evolve 1ght and
heat, the illumination thus caused be-
ing the glare that we see in looking
at the sun and that scientists have
enormously supposed to be the light
Of that orb itself, attribuflng it, by
imagination purely, TO inconceivably
hot fires, burning but not consuming
the body Of that planet.
In the same way the electrical cur
rents passing in and out of earth il
illuminate and warm its outer non
conductive atmosphere and to other
planets our little globe appears as a
ball of everlasting fire in the same
manner, but to a far less extent, as
abe sun appears to them and to US.
The light and warmth that shed their
benign influences upon us and make
our globe a fit h%abitation for animal
and vegetable life in all its varied
forms cannot by any scientist be
traced beyond the terrestrial atmos-
phere, asserts Mr.. Young, except by
pure assumption. The fact is that
they are evolved in that atmosphere
by means Of the resistance it offers
TO the great ~permeating streams of
solar electricity passing in and out,
According to this theory the sends
forth electric currents, not rays OF
heat and light. II is warmed and H.
Illuminated by the heat and light
evolved by the passage of those cur,
rents through it's own resisting at
mosphere and not by any fires of it:
