TO SLIDE TO THE NORTH POLE This Will Be Possible in Few
 Million Years Says Scientist

It is only a matter of several mil lions of years when man, if he is left to tell the tale and wants to take a
 trip or a hike to the North Pole,
 will not be confronted with walls of
 ice, mountains high, to impress upon
 him the fact that he might as we'll
 right about face" and get back to the home fireside.
 This is true if the theories of Prof. J. NJ. Schaeberle, formerly of the Uni ersity of Michigan and later director of the Lick Observatory in California,
 are borne out he presages what he
 hopes scientists will agree to and then will be determined the future conditions of the earth. For two years
 he has presented his theory of the temperatures of the sun and of the
 intervening space between the sun and atmosphere of the earth to 1000 scientists, and claims to have demon
 strated some surprising errors in pre- vious methods and challenges these scientists to show where his demon strations are erroneous.
 Alone in his title observatory at the corner of Third and Jefferson streets, 1 Ann Arbor, this noted astronomer is
 devoting all his time to research i work with an instrument of his own
 construction, and this instrument is
 the most powerful of it's kind in the
 world. His obseryational work has
 been carried on with the aid of three mirrors of concave form. The third , mirror has an aperture Of two feet
 and focal length of three feet. This
 Is such that images of the faintest
 known stars can, with the aid of a powerful magnifying glass. be plain
 " seen on a photographic plate ex-
 posed for less than five minutes in the focus
 When this instrument is turned to the sun all known metals are melted and vaporized. As refractory a metal as platinum goes up in the air in vaPor like drop of butter on a red hot stove. A circular hole equal in size to the suns focal image is al-
 most instantly formed in a thin plate of sheet-iron held in the focus. By taking a much thicker piece the vaporization of the boiling iron image of the sun can be observed at leisure until hole is again formed. From his observations and calculations he has deduced the statement that the ef- fective surface temperature of the sun is 5000 degrees. centigrade. and his determination to investigate the prob able origin and physical structure of the sidereal system has involved the question of the present surface tenn perature of the sum-
 And these are some conclusions that he arrives at
 1. The inherent heat of the earth still plays an important if not con i trolling part in all terrestrial Phe- nomena.
 z. For ages the earth has been radiating heat into space. shrinking | in size and, with constantly de creasing surface temperature, has been growing colder. The ice deser; areas of the earth are increasing and glaciers are retreating, not because the suns influence has seemingly become predominant. but because the earth has. even in historic times grown sensibly colder.
 3. An ice age was inaugurated at | a given place whenever the snowfall
 during the colder months of the year
 was so great that the snow could not

all be melted during the warmer months of the year. Since the earth is continually growing colder supply of moisture, through evaporation from the water surface of the earth, is con tinuaiiy growing less, so that finally even the land areas in the polar re- gims viii be laid completely bare.
 The moon is receiving about one-twenty- as much heat from the earth as it does from the sun, and this from radiation from the inheren. heat of the earth.
 5. The evidence is conclusive that the sun is the parent body of both the sidereal and solar systems, the former created by one process simultaneous ly going on with the creation of the latter, but by a largely different ac- tion of the same forces of nature.
 6. Only few thousand years ago ice sheets extended we'll into the tenn perate zones, but as evaporation de- creased the ice retreated and is still retreating, so that later on snowfalls will be a thing of the past.
 The theories are still in controver- sy, but Prof. Schaeberle takes an at titude that is almost defiant for the scientists to prove that Stefan's law or formula, or any other law or form ula except that of Newton's can be demonstrated to be true, and until
 But the conclusions reached are such time scientists will not be jus tified in condemning his conclusions. such that it means millions of years before the conditions come about, and the man of the present day will be obliged as usual to get up on cold winter morning and clean his side walk of the snow, and there is no hurry in getting in line for a trip to sgeIB ..5IBq pIgI,, eql leo s9lod eql of the northern and southern polar regions.

Drawing the Lines Tighter.

The following extracts from LETT
ter from j. 10, Swearingen, State SUI
perintendent of Education, will no
doubt be of interest to many Of the
teachers in Oconee:
There will be no summer school
anywhere in South Carolina this year
except at Wofford College. =
Teachers whose certificates will ex-
ptre this year might take advantage
of the spring examination or of the
summer school at Wofford to secure
a renewal of their certificates. The
law is plain on this point, and lit
tie precaution now may prevent much
annoyance later"
From the above you will see that
1T will be necessary, for those whose
certificates expire, either to take the
spring examination or attend the
summer school at Wofford to get
their certificates renewed. Please do
not overlook this, as 1t will be strict
ly complied with.
