Proof That Moon is Uninhabited.
from Harper's Magazine.

From Harpers Magazine
The moon being much the nearest to us
of all the heavenly bodies, we can pro-
rounce more definitely in its case than
in any other We know that neither air
nor water exists on the moon in quantities
sufficient to be perceived by the most deli
cate tests at our command. 1t is certain
that the moons atmosphere. II any exists,
Is less than the thousandth part of the
density of that around US. The vacuum
is greater than any ordinary airpump is
capable of producing. We can hardly sup
pose that so small quantity of air could
bt. of any benefit whatever in sustaining
life; an animal that could get along so
little could get along on none at all.
But the proof of the absence of life Is yet
stronger when we consider the results of
actual telescope observation. An object
such as an ordinary city block could be de-
tected on the moon. If anything like vege-
tation were present on its surface We
should see the changes which 1t would un-

Life in the Universe.
From Harper's Magazine


The fact that so far we have yet been
able to learn only very small proportion
of the visible worlds scattered through
space are fitted to be the abode of life
does not preclude the probability that
among hundreds of millions of such worlds
a vast number are so fitted. Such being
the case all the analogies of nature lead
us to believe that, whatever the process
which led to life upon this earth-whether
a special act of creative power or a gradual
course of observation-disclosures that same
process does life begin in every part of the
universe fitted to sustain it. The course of
development involves gradual improve
meut in living forms. which by irregular
steps rise higher and higher in the scale
of being. We have every reason to believe
that this is the case wherever life exists
1t Is, therefore. perfectly reasonable to
suppose that beings, not only ANNA ted,
but endowed with reason, inhabit countless
worlds in space. 1t would indeed be very
inspiring could we learn by actual observa-
ton what forms of society exist throughout
space and see the members of such So
cieties enjoying themselves by their warm
firesides. But this is, far as we can now
see, entirely beyond the possible reach of
our race, SO long as 1t Is confined to a
single world.

''When confronted him with the evt-

reply that If we said much he would sue us
for interest on the notes as originally made
and then for interest on the notes as a loan
or course, he would have lost such suit
but it would have been a black eye TO the
trust financiers to have their greenness get
out In court. So they swallowed the pill,
and no doubt by this time they have sold
the business to some other sucker.
