When the Planets go Astray"
By EDGAR LUCIEN LARKIN.

n THE planets are sup
" posed to trdUel along the
line Of the elliptic, but some gears
ago the planet Mars, in opposi-
ton. 1oGs seen far dowR to the
South, the sun at the same time
being in midsummer at its cF-
tremc northcrly position Hon.
do you account for the planet be-
ing so far out Of its scheduled
coWse?"
A.-Mars was not out of its
scheduled course; the position for
noon each day had been pub
lished four years before by the
leading governments of the
world, and these predicted posi-
tons were actually assumed by
Mars with the most astonishing
accuracy, a precision so nearly
perfect that the admiration of all
scientific men was ELECTED for the
great mathematicians who per-
formed this wondrous work
When the sun Is at its farth-
est north it is 20 H. degrees north
of the equator Then the oppo-
site side of the orbit of the earth,
, i. e., the apparent path of the sun
among the stars, is 20 II degrees
south of the equator. The orbit
of Mars is inclined to the orbit Of
the earth by degree 81 minutes.
which, added to % IL, makes %
degrees II minutes that Mars can
be south of the equator This
seems to be far south, especially
when rising at sunset.

Stars and Stripes

Those who reverence gray hair
always seem to have a gibe ready
for the bald head.
The man who can smile when
he feels like cussing has the quail
tiles of a winner,
When a man really deserves a
favor extended he is liable to ac-
oept it with apparent reluctance.
The henpecked man does not
always seem to be aware of it,
but he generally has a cautious
look.
When you hear a girl say that
some other girl is sweet it is
safe TO wager that the other girl
is not handsome.
Ability to sing makes some at
tTaCtive To be able TO resist the
temptation to MARBLE makes 9TH

IFE means action, from the
cradle to the funeral pile.
The situation into which
we are born and our mental ana
physical equipments at birth are
the result of past actions IN
other lives, and all our actions
while here are forming conditions
for lives to come.
There are limitless possiblll-
ties in this life to overcome, what
ever conditions hamper or annoy
us, and to bring into realization
whatever hopes or aspirations
lure us.
We have not begun to sound
the depths in our minds.
The most brilliant, the most
studious, the most reverent, the
most persistent, have only sailed
about the shores of this great
ocean; they have not even mag
ined what deep waters lie beyond,
and what rare pearls lie under
those deep waters.
But we have shining examples
of individuals who have achieved
so much under such discouraglng
conditions that their lives be-
come an inspiration to all who
mediate upon them.
Lincoln, born in poverty reared
in the same hard school, sur
rounded by the commonplace and
the undesirable, and deprived of
all opportunities for advance
ment, made himself a colossal
figure in the eyes of centuries to
come through high thinking,
clean living and the persistent
cultivation of the old immortal
virtues of honesty, truth, cour-
age and unselfishness and devo-
ton to those duties which stood
nearest.
All his thoughts, all his ambi-
tions, all his actions, from child
hood to maturity, were directed
toward the attainment of those
virtues and their practical appli-
cation to every issue which life
presented. Unconsciously to him
self. he was treading the path to
immortal fame; he was building a
character which would invite ire
mendous responsibilities, and
creating the strength to meet
them grandly.
He knew what life meant.
It meant action, and achieve
ment through growth.
There is no such thing as mac
ton during this life.
We are continually going for
ward or backward.
You are either stronger or
weaker this year than you were
last year.
You are drawer or more cow
ardly
You are more hopeful or more
pessimistic
You are more capable mentally
or less so.
You have better or poorer COM
mand of your forces.

Next year at this time you.v,u

Delicate tools are the.

Every morning say to yourself

Il will entertain hope. courage

Just as surely as you begin and
carry out your days along these
lines, just as surely shall the true
meaning of life come to you and
you shall know God, and you shall
know that the meaning of life is
God and that in Him are all the

He was asleep, she said and she managed to slip out of the car without arous- ing him, and appealed to a policeman. The policeman had given her shelter at his home Tuesday night and yester- day, she said, but it was late in the afternoon before she had recovered sufficiently}to give him her name and address. He took her to Weehawken and placed her on a train, she con- tinued, and she reached home in that way. No,sshe did not know the name Of the policeman or his address.
 His shield number?" pleaded Chief of Police William H. Melia, who had been up stwentyfour hours aiding in the search for the girl. She couldn't recall it. When questioned further she became hysterical again, and two physicians were called in. Dr. David Corn and Dr. c. A.

New York. April Miss Jessie Jersey towns had been searched by her companions in the Ridgefeld Park High school, returned to the home of her parents at PAT Teaneck Road, Ridgefield Park, N. J., last night. and in intervals of coherent speech de- clared she had been kidnapped by two men in an automobile few minutes after she left the house at 7:50 p. m, Tuesday.
 Later she confessed that she had run away. was even more mysterious than was: Ter disappearance. A policeman saw her fumbling at the gate in front Of ttc house. Disheveled and weeping. neither hat nor coat to protest her from the rain, she staggered up the steps of the piazza. There were strangers on the porch and in. the hallway but no one, recognized her as she entered the house. One of the bystanders, who opened the front door for her as she tottered across the piazza, suggested she was friend of the missing girl. Then she suddenly confronted her mother, who was talk ing about her to a reporter. y-
 Meeting Was Pathetic.
 Her hands clinched, her eyes wide ard staring, and with water dripping . from her mass of blonde hair, Miss Wood stood for moment facing her lnother in the parlor before the latter turned and saw her.
 .sGirlie Jessie! Jessie!' Mrs. Wood screamed.
 , Her cries brought her husband Percy L. Wood, from an upper bed room, where he had been resting after bis all-oay search. Miss Wood lurched forward and was gathered in the arms of her mother.

YALE TO INACCURATE
 COURSE IN AVIATION
COi. UIlnan's AT Graft Company to G. -jDeTae Win ihGth;.d School.

New York, April 2.-Professor Les. ter Page Breckenridge of Yale unl-, versity brought a party of slXty-hVe students in mechanical engineering here yesterday to make a tour of ln- spection of various electrical plants. The party spent the afternoon exam ming William J. Hammers collection of electric lighting devices at the Engineering society's building in West Thirty ninth street. Today they looked over the plants of the Edison company, and tomorrow Professor Breckenridge will lead the students on a tour that. calls for stops at all of the principal eastern cities.
 Professor Breckenridge. after con- versation with President Alan F.. Flaw ley of the Aero Club of America an nounced that Yale university had com mitted itself to a liberal policy i'll support of aviation and had made plans to open a course in aeronautics in connection with the Sheffield Sci entific school
 To study Every Feature. .'
 For this course Professor Brecken. ridge said it was planned to use air men and aeroplanes and to study every feature connected with the scientific problems of flying. Colonel Isalc M. Ullman, president of the New Ha- ven Chamber of Commerce, and Ever ard Thompson, who are both officers in an aircraft company just organized are expected to help materieiily ill de- veloping the Yale aerfonautlc course The plans of Ce5lonel Ullman's com pany include. the building of balloon l shed at lNew Haven and the construc" ton there of a dirigible balloon dur: ' ing the coming summer. Captain Thomas A. Baldwin, who will have charge of building the balloon is nov making plans to go to Europe to study the development of dirigible balloons in Germany and France and to ar range for the purchase of the fabric required. Through active co-opera tion between those in charge of the dirigible balloon station to be erected by Colonel Ullman and the Yale uni versity department in mechanical en- gineering it is the expectation in New Haven that that city will become tl, center of aeronautical interest and ac tivity in America.
 Will Discuss Aeroplanes.
 Professor Breckenridge said tha the American Society of Mechanica 1 Eng1neerS, WnlCn holds It's annu:L meeting at New Haven on May will devote practically the whole ses sion to the consideration of aeroplancs He invited Edison F. Gallaudet, { French motor builder; Charles M Manley, who attempted to fly the old time Langley glider over the Potomac Henry A. Wise Wood, and Henry New house of the Aero Club to address tn, engineers upon aeronautical develop ment.
 President Hawley, in expressing hi delight at the idea of having a grea American university take up aero nautics, said that there are now 1O !, 900 aeroplanes in use, representing ar investment of $10O,OOO,OOO, all O 1 which has been made in the past thre years. On this basis, he said, it wa practically certain that $20O,0OO, DO, . would be invested in aeroplanes durin, the next two years, for which reason , engineers would be entirely justifie, in looking upon aeroplane building a an important industry.
