The current number Of the Califor-

"The Japanese war scare has hurt

A Race With the Sun

An English magazine says that if an
aerial machine were capable of travel
ing at any rate up to 1000 miles an
hour traveller in it, starting westward
from London at spead of 900 miles
an hour, would arrest the progress of
time. If he started at 10 q. IN, it
would always be to him 10 Il. IN. Should
he find his unending day monotous he
could reverse his direction and get a
quick succession of short days and
nights of some six hours duration, but
he could regulate the length by the
speed of his machine. Suppose he
travelled from London one night at 10
o'clock westward at a speed of 1000
miles per hour. He would soon ex-
perience the sensation of seeing the sun
rising III the west where it had set Il
short time before.
