DISAGREE AS TO THE ETHER
Scientists Hold Varying views ~ to
Composition Of Material In
the Outer Space.

Tho notion Of . universal medium,
permeating all space, has undergone
many vicissitudes. The sphere of ce-
lestial fire Of the Alexandrians and the
interstellar whirlpools of Descartes
gave way to the solid theory which
vas elaborated with immense skill by
Young, Fresnel, Stokes and Kelvin,
only to give way to the electromag-
netic ether Of Maxwell.
At the present time there are at
least three theories-one considers
the ether ~ an incompressible me-
dunn. very rigid and very dense: an
other considers 1t composed Of par.
ticles much smaller than electrons;
and the third denies its existence alto
gether and seeks to eradicate It from
the list Of physical theories.
It 10 this last theory which gains
more and more adherents day by day
We are in = revolutionary epoch,
where the tendency 10 toward explain.
ing phenomena In terms Of emission
rather than undulation. and Of par
ticles rather than fluids.
And once more we see reappearins
the mysterious and rather terrifying
notion Of the absolute "nothingness"
Of outer space which one imagined to
be successfully abolished by the intro
duction Of the ether.
