The Reason Why Foam Always APP

pears White In Color.
When water or liquid of any color is
violently agitated small bubbles of
air are mixed up with 1t. and thus
foam is formed. and its wilderness is
due to the fact that when light passes
from one medium to another OF a diff
ferent refractive index it is always
reflected. and this reflection may be
so often repeated as to render the mix
ture impervious to light.
1t is. then. this frequency of the re-
Elections Of the limiting surfaces Of
air and water that renders foam
opaque, and as each particle reflects
light in all directions so much light "
reflected that the mixture appears
white
To q similar cause is due the white
ness of transparent bodies when crush
ed to powder. The separate particles
transmit light freely, but the reflec
tons at their surfaces are so numer-
Gus that the resulting effect is white.
Thus glass when crushed IS a white
powder and is Opaque, but when it is
put under water it once more becomes
transparent, because the water fills up
the intersticeS between the particles
and the reflections are destroyed. Salt
and snow are also common examples
of this condition.

How Roots Penetrate Hard Ground.

The extreme tips Of a delicate rot
are protected by a sheath set with
minute scales, which as ii is worn
away by friction against the soil is as
constantly replaced. so that it acts
as Il wedge and the root thread is car

penetration lies in the provision where

worms lis tip into the ground. An
other important agent is the acid cell
sap, which eXudes on TO and dissolves
to some extent the rock or hard soil.
This may be tested by placing a small

which a plant is set and covering it
with earth. After some weeks the

Some three weeks ago Congressman

vitation of the Massachusetts Hard
ware Dealers. then in session in Bos-
ton addressed that organization The
speech has attracted general attention
all tevr the country and in many
quarters has been pronounced one Of
the atlest yet delivered, along the

very notable address of Mr.. Brantley:

A LOCAL CASE OF THE REFEREN.
DUN.

The people of Brunswick and Glynn
county have recently had an oppor-
tunity of observing the real danger
that turks in the new theory of the
referendum and the recall, as applied
TO judges and judicial decisions. 1t
is .'ather remarkable that when the
serious and sober minded element of
the country is resisting the perpetual
ton OF this system, we find a local
judge who on his own motion makes it
operative! si.>. - ~
Some five or six weeks ago the Glynn
county commissioners named a spe-
cial officer who in order to serve had
to be appointed by the judge Of the
city court Of Brunswick; there was
and is a serious question in the minds
Of lawyers generally as to the legality
Of The appointment of this officer.
Again, there was popular indignation
against both the action Of the com
missioners and that of the judge vino
finally made the appointment. So
great became this protest that the
Judge, under MS own signature and at
his own instance, wrote a letter for
publication in which he stated that if
those woh were opposed to the step
would get petition signed by the
majority Of the registered voters, he
would promptly resclnd or revoke the
appointment In less than two weeks
this petition was presented to the
judge and we are advised that the
petition contained a clear majority Of

based on the last registration list. Az
soon as this petition was filed those
who faovred the action clamored to
the juGee and he likewise allowed
them thirty days in which to secure
sisners to the petition. In view Of
his original statement and in view of
the additional fact that the majority
had already signed one petition. the
relevancy Of his attitude is not ap-
ras
Leaving aside entirely the question
Of this particular appointment, our
purpose now is to show the real dan
ger IN the so-caIled theory Of refer
endum and recall What has been the
result in this case? One petition with
SIX hundred names has been signed
against the judicial decision-or would
u De better to say indecision while
other petitioners are at work to OBJ
tam the signatures of those who APP
prove this action. In the meantime
the judge stands in the attitude of
failing to promptly redeem published
pledge; the officer is serving on full
pay while six hundred citizens who
protested are wondering why the judge
does not revoke and others who an.
prove are asking him not to
If Judge be real Judge, who has
not is ear etrnally to the ground and
listens not to the voice of the people
and he felt he was right in an APP
pointment, or a decision. then, he
should make that appointment and
write that decision if every voter and
every taxpayer in the community had
entered protest against it!
Might not the judge just as con-
sistently refer his sentences to the
voters and might he not refer the
question of granting demurrers and
new trials TO them?
The referendum is very danger
Gus thing at best; it is doubly so in
the case to which we refer.

Where better to lodge this
