party will take what remains The
Republican party will, OF course. lie
forced 10 revise many Of its practices.
The result OF the election in states

BILLBOARDS
WILL INCREASE INSURANCE
RATES 1T is CLAIMED;

A fight is being made by a number
of women OF the city against the plac
ing OF unsightly bilIboards about thu
business buildings and other public
places about Fairmont. A well.kn,wr
advertising agency has been erecting
large projecting signs in some places
and the women are making a protest
against the movement, with the threat
that such places advertised theron
will not be patropized by them.
Much criticism has been hearo
about the recent placing of large
boards on the tops Of the business
buildings in the heart OF the business
section and many claim that they are
a menace to public safety, since the
pressure OF the high winds might
bring them down with serious conse,
quenees to people on the streets. The
main objection the ladies raise to what
they term the billboard Nuisance" is
that they give the city a ragged and
unsightly appearance.
These boards, It is claimed, will be
the cause OF increasing insurance
rates in the business sections.

~ 1t is thought that in space
eternal cold and dark

is the explanation OF the fact that
both light and heat from the sun,

A. Heat and light as such 90
not reach the earth from our own
and 100, 900, 900 more suns Ra-
diant energy is transmitted by
undulations or waves in electrons,
which energy Is in the form of
waves of varying lengths and am

ate them, heat and light result.
Many molecules IN many thou
sands of kind OF matter are able
to translate energy waves into
heat. while others are translated
as light on the retina of the eye
and in the brain. But no heat
or light develops until the waves
strike forms Of matter fitted to
