power of the Supreme 1ntelligence-oi
GOd-and is not understandable of finite
reason. We can understand the result, but
the cause Is hidden.
What causes the hairy appearance in
the head Of the comet?
This is due to the radiation Of reflected
sunlight outward from the focal point, or
nucleus of the comet. and the preceding
concentration of rays to form focus
The irregular appearance is due to the
fact that the head of the comet is in vio-
lent aXial motion, and also because we
see it through layers of our atmosphere
of differing density.
In your explanation of the nature of
comets tall is true, why is it that they
are not evenly lighted? l can under.

see them obiquely through the atmos-

and regularly. But the layers of atmos
phere do not lie In regular order, they
are not of the same density or clarity
and therefore at times the Atmospheric

But If this is true why is not the ap

They are. In proportion TO their shape
and size. Refraction near the horizon
distorts the appearance OF sun and moon
causing them to appear much larger thar

solar energy, forming light. therefore they
show up more bright when the celestial
searchlight is turned on them; second, we
are seeing that particular portion of the
comets tail through cleared spot in
the earth's atmosphere.
But comets have appeared to throw OFT
parts of the head and these show some
times a spectrum differing from the par
ent head. I read that this was true of
the great comet of 1889 and Of Biela' 8
comet, which divided into two parts. How
do you explain that?
As Leaf Follows a Train.
Nationally, if you accept the theory that
cometary heads are spheres of gyroscopic
systemic energy, that they are vortexes
or whirlpools in a great system Of radiant
energy. These separated parts are thrown
off at tangent from the outer diffuse
gases in the head of the comet. they do
not partake of the energy resident in the
comet head and are dependent on their in
itial impulse. AS this loses force, by re-
sistance of the cosmic gases, the gases
flung from the head are dissipated among
the cosmic gases and lost apparently.
Just as stream disappears in the air The
original head carries these along for a
while and then leaves them behind, like a
leaf thrown from a train whirls along
with it for a while and then drops to the
ground
But the leaf is pulled to the earth
by the attraction of gravitation? So are
the fung-off masses of comets heads,
not to the earth, of course, but into the
great cosmic reservoir. The kinetic pow
er of all gases also plays part in the
effect.
II comets tail were composed of
minute particles of gas why couldn't the
sun swing 1t around at the speed It
travels at perihelion, and what peri
helion precisely?
Perihelion means near the sun. 1t is
the point in the orbit Of a planet or
comet when 1t reaches it's nearest place
to the sun. With the solid or densely
gaseous planets. with an almost cir
cular orbit. perihelion does not differ so
tremendously from aphelion. or farthest
point from the sun, but with cometary
orbits there is vast difference
1t would be Impossible for solar force
to swing a gaseous tail around the sun
at the speed at which comets tails have
| travelled One comet observed by Sir
| John Herschen had a tall, ninety mill
| lions of miles long. 1t swung around
! the sun in two hours. Therefore the
| end of the tail swung. through an arc
of Dos, 100000 miles, or almost half the
earth's orbit in two hours, or at the
rate Of nearly twice the direct speed of
| light Detected light is the only thing
| that could travel at that speed. The
direct speed of light In $4,000 miles a
second. but that speed is increased when
| light is defected-twice by plane and
eight times by a sphere.
| How is it no one saw the comet transit

Because there are no solid particles In

Effect on the Earth.

How do comets cause earthquakes
and tremors?
In various ways. Their rapid pas
sage through the solar system dis
turbs the static cOherency Of the cosmic
gases. much as gust of wind disturbs
OF solar force, operate as disturbing
factors in the solar system. The earth
is surrounded by deep atmosphere
which acts as great shock absorber
and prevents any descriptive effect, but
the disturbed energy has an effect on
the general coherency of the earth, and
it is the attempt of the earth to con-
tinually adjust itself to these disturb
ances that causes the tremors in part.
Other effects are caused by the con-
centration of solar energy directly on
the earth as before explained.
How do comets affect the weather and
cause tornadoes, great heat and cold in
different parts of the earth at the same
time. fogs and all the rest of the I'M
seasonable weather you claim to be
due to the comet?
First let me cite some examples of re-
cent weather Snow fell in New Mex
leo last week In Norway and Scandina-
via 1t is so hot that the mountain SHOWS
are melting unusually early. A great
storm ravaged the Texas region this
week. From all parts Of the world come
reports Of unusual weather. For this
there must be some initial cause. All
of sunlight on the atmosphere Of the
earth If to the usual amount of radiant
sunlight there is added an obliQuely di-
rected additional DETECTION Of sunlight,
either processed Or recessed from the
head of the comet. the earths atmos-
phere is bound to feel the effects OF it.
How do comets cause chemical explo-
sions and powder and dynamite explo-
sions as you have asserted they do?
Any chemical combination which is ex-
plcs;ve is so because it's atoms are held
together lightly in chemical combination.
The application of any force or energy to
them sufficient to overcome their slight
coherency Immediately causes them to
explode In simple language, this is the
explanation, but 1t does not debar a
more technical explanation. in which XII
netics, coherency. chemical attraction
and repulsion, energization and many
other factors enter. And 1t applies to the
gases in mines as well as explosives on
the surface Of the earth.
