EDMONTON, Alta, Nov. 9.-State-
ments concerning the ever-changing
climatic conditions, which, he frankly
admits, may be startling to the scien-
tifc world as well as to the layman,
were made in an interview in Edmon-
ton today by DIR. James Munro, NJ. E.,
of Winnipeg, who has given the sub
ject the study of a life time. He said.
From information gathered from
many sources, both from Europe ano
America, | am led to believe there is
"a far-reaching cause which may &C.
count for the tremendous rains cover

A Crucial Test.

The campaign will mean crucial
test Of the civic betterment propa-
ganda in this city. The men who are
directing the work of the Industrial
Association and the citizens at large
have given the movement an unquali-
fed stamp of approval.
They say that the future city Of
Keokuk must be planned in scien-
tific manner or lose the prosperity
she has awaiting her. AS residen-
tial city 1t is necessary. A dispatch In
this paper the other day announced
that number of farmers near
Argyle were preparing to move to
Keokuk in the spring. The men say
that if the city is to attract the resi-

merchants from smaller towns, the

tary motions of the earth, combined
with the attraction of the other plan
cts, together with the sun, kept the
earth suspended and whirling through
space.
Now, the radiation of the earth's
heat is causing a condensation Of the
surface of the planet, and this CON
traction at certain points tends to
throw up the interior molten matter
lat points where the earth's shell is
perhaps thinner. This has recently
occurred in the northern Pacific
ocean, where large new islands have
been thrown up.
Reports show that the Japan cur
rent has changed It's course, striking
northern Canada and Alaska at a
much higher point than formerly. The
mild winds from this current flowing
lnortheasterly are melting the SHOWS
and ices of the Arctic, and the winds
from the north are carrying the
moisture-laden clouds south and east,
and depositing their moisture in rain
and snow

This has been cool, cloudy sum-
mer and we have wondered where all
the rain came from, as the cloudy
atmosphere did not permit the sun to
draw its lnoistures from ordinary lakes
and rivers. Again, it is my belief that
the accumulated ice at the south pole,
coupled with the throwing off of the

the north pole, has caused the earth
to slightly change its centre of gravity,
thus throwing the arctic zone farther
south, causing the sun to evaporate

Movement Was Last
Spring.

William Ballinger chairman OF the
Industrial Association committee on

mi.tee, at its meeting late yesterday
afternoon, unanimously adopted the
plan proposed for raising money to
pay the expenses of the work of John

The organization that SO effectively
carried out the cleanup movement
last May will be used The chairman
in each of the wards will be asked to
carry out the plan and MIR. Bailinger
hopes to receive hearty cooperation
in carrying out successfully the worK.
The plan that will be used means
a house to house canvass. The city
contains about four hundred blocks
and two lieutenants, under the direc-
ton of the ward chairman, will be
appointed for each block. One of the
lieutenants will be woman and one
man. They will be held respon-
sible for vigorous, personal effort to
procure subscriptions
1t is hoped to raise at least $1,000
in this matter. about half of the cost
of the work John Nolen, the city plan
ner, will do. A block will average
eight or ten houses and 1t should be
an easy matter to obtain an average
of FIVE dollars from each block. It is
expected that some of the blocks will
contribute twenty-five or fifty dollars
while others will fall short
