than that Of New York, although
at a more northern latitude, is
made so by the waters of the gulf
stream.
In fact, the whole theory of the
gulf stream is wrong, some scien-
fists say. Even if the gulf stream
had changed its course and was
flowing closer to these shores than
ever before-whiCh is not the case
this would not in the least solve
the problem, for the principal rea-
son that weather conditions and
the prevailing winds travel with
the rotation of the earth from west
to east.
Any change of temperature due
to that stream, then, would be car
ried to the eastward and its effect
lost over the United States.
The general theories of climatic
change are thus disposed of, so
that nothing but the old records
are left, and, while they are inter
esting, they are neither complete
nor accurate enough to justify the
belief which seems so general. AS
to the records Of the last 80 years,
they show huctuations-that some
winters have beer much colder
than others and some summers
much hotter than others-but in
figuring out the amount of heat
and cold received at each place it
is found that the one Just about
counterbalances the other.

Four Feet Of Snow Laid For Three

There has been such widespread
interest in the question as to
whether the climate is undergoing
a radical change or not that
weather man" has given infor-
nation on the subject though he
does not pretend to answer the
question. According to the rec
ords kept by the government very
little can be learned, for they
have not extended over a period
long enough to make the informa-
ton conclusive, says the Chicago
Chronicle This would require
records that had been kept through
hundreds of years. The nearest
to these records are those which
have been unearthed by private
individuals whose grandfathers or
great grandtathers have kept them.
They are intermittent in most
cases and have been made i'll wide
ly separated districts, but are fair
" authentic and extend over a
period Of about 200 years. They
generally refer to the GOODNESS Of
the winters, which began in No
vember and lasted till March, snow

greater part Of this time There
is little mention of extreme heat
or any unusual condition in the
sumner months. These records
tell of the intense and uninterrup-
ted cold of the winter Of I77o-
1880. which lasted from the latter
part OF November till the middle

Has there been any change? Is
there change taking place at
present? Those who believe that
climatic changes are taking place
and are still going OH hold diverse
opinions as to tn cause. Some at
tribute it largely to the cutting of
the forest and the extensive drain
age of the soil as the result of cul.
tivation. Others hold that the
polar ice is leaving the poles and
drifting into waters of the middle
latitude Others that the great
volume of artificial heat generated
in the larger cities has a tendency
to moderate the cold. But the
theory having the strongest hold
and which is steadfastly persisted
in is that the gulf stream is chang
ing its course and is running clos
er to the shore of North America,
its warmth being felt all over the
land.
In support of this notion it is
held that the gulf stream washes
the shores of the British Isles and
that without its influence they
would be as cold as Greenland. 1t
is true that the gulf stream flows
near the shores of the British Isles,
but it does not justify the asser-
ton it is believed, that the eli

The First Quarterly Review.
The Finding of Jesus" might
be taken as the general topic for
all the lessons of the three months
just closing. The shepherds found
Him. Their very occupation led
them to be reverent and contempla-
tive. They were much in the
solemn stiffness Of the night and
in the company Of the heavenly
planets. These mystic star gazers
may have been in communion with
heaven at the very time of the
Nativity. Prepared message came
to prepared minds. There was an
angelic apparition, announcement
OF Nativity and angelic anthem.
The moral earuestness of the shep-
herds expresses itself in the eN-
clamation, Let US go and see, -
The Wise Men found
Jesus. On the dark background of
Herod's murderous jealousy and
Jerusalem's cold indifference the
moral earnestness of the Magi
shines with pleasing luster. They
took a thousaud-mile journey to
find the Babe. Neither Herod's
jealousy nor Jerusalem's indifer-
ence nor the mean place Of the Ma
tivity daunted them,
The Boy Jesus finds himself. Ar
irving in Jerusalem at the feast, it
was not the prodigious mass of
humanity assembled there, not the
golden and marble temple, not
even the solemn and speaking
ceremonial not these, but the
Messianic idea and the dawning
