HAPPINESS FOR THE AGED
Many Ways by Which Those About

a medical authority Is Of the opin'
ion that the aged should receive from
the physician and from the Aumanl-
tartan a sympathy and support that
will help and cheer them. The old
man should be induced to improve his
appearance. His sense Of pride should
be stimulated. Those around him
should, without too great departure
from actual truth, tell him how youns
he looks. An effort should be made
to keep his mind pleasantly. employed.
The tonic effect Of a local happening,
which engages the attention Of the
community, on the aged Mho are
reused to a stronger interest in cur
rent affairs is often quite salutary.
They thus have something to think
about to talk about. They are taken
away from the past and again are in
the living present. The aged woman
rarely becomes as gloomy and de-
pressed as the old man. She has a
place in the activities Of the house
hold which can never be q part Of a
mans life. When through age
mans occupation is gone, it is diff
cult for him to adjust himself to the
idleness that follows and to make that
leisure a source Of happiness rather
than Of unavailing regret.

telescopes. For such work the tele-
scope will generally be used in the
Cassegrain form; the light from the
main mirror, converging toward a TO-
Gus, will be received by second hy-
perboloidal mirror of about nineteen
inches aperture and ten feet focus,
placed about twenty-three feet above

thence down through the hole in the
main mirror, and the star images are
formed about three feet below the lat
ter. Here the spectrograph will be
placed. For the fainter stars of low

ably be placed at the prime focus. An
investigation Of the atmospheric con-
ditions in different parts Of Canada is
now in progress, to determine where
the telescope will be located.

ADh'STELESCOPE
Canadian Government Soon to
Have Powerful instrument.

Cost Nearly s1oo,ooo-lts Lo-
cation Not Yet Determined.

Ottawa, Can.-The Canadian gov
ernment will soon possess more
powerful rejecting telescope than any
now in existence. 1t has been re-
ferred to in the newspapers as "the
largest telescope in the world but
this description is misleading for two
reasons; first, because its aperture,
72 inches, is to be the same as that
of the famous Parsonstown reflector,
built by Lord Rosse in 1912; and Sec
ond, because by the time the Canadi-
an instrument is completed it now
seems likely that the 100-inch refec-
tor which has long been under con-
struction for the Mount Wilson Solar
observatory will also be, ready for
use. The Canadian telescope will,
however, be much more efficient in
strunent than Lord Roses. Not
only will the mirror be much SUI
perior, but the mounting will enable
the telescope to be worked to the full
advantage. The Parsonstown refec-
tor has an altazimuth, not an eQua-
torial, mounting and is operated un-
der such difficulties that comparative
ly little use has ever been made OF
it.
Contracts for the new telescope
have just been awarded to j. Bra
shear for the mirrors and other op-
teal parts, and to Warner & Swasey
for the mounting. The disk for the
principal mirror will be made by the
ST. Gobain glass works, in Paris, but
all the grinding and figuring will be
done in this country. The total cost
will be nearly one hundred thousand
dollars. Inasmuch as the instrument
is intended primarily and VIGOROUSLY
for work Of no immediate practical
benefit, viz, the spectrographic meas
urement Of radial stellar velocities,
this sum represents very notable
contribution to pure science on the
part Of government
The telescope will have parabolic
mirror of. 72 inches, clear aperture and
80 feet focal length, with central
hole ten inches in diameter. The
