Gravity Of q Spinning Top.

A spinning top is kept from falling
because of the speed with which it re-
wolves. The attraction Of gravitation
Is temporarily overcome by the centrif-
ugal force produced by the rotation Of
the top when it is spun. Each part
Of the top is subject to the same Gen.
trifugal force as each other part at the
same distance from the axis of rota-
ton and to no greater force, so that
there is no cause for the top being
pulled In any particular direction by
the force Of gravity. AS soon as the
centrifugal force begins to lessen be-
cause Of lessening speed Of rotation the
attraction of gravity begins to be ex-
erted again and the top begins to wob-
BILE. When the spinning motion di-
minishes to such an extent that the
attraction of gravitation becomes great
er than the centrifugal force the top
falls to one side.

Winter Friends.
BIZ Helen M. Richardson

BY Helen NJ. Richardson.
When winter skies are dull and gray,
And summer birds have flown away;
When not flower decks the hill.
And even insect sounds are still;
When winds go moaning through the trees,
And all the beauty that one sees
Is cloud ships sailing to and fro,
How good is seems to see q crow.
To see a crow and hear 1t cav,
What though the winds are bleak and raw!
This speck Of black with tapping wings
Unto the dropping spirit brings
A feeling of contented cheer,
As though long-lost friend drew near.
He brightens winters dreary days,
This crow with all his homely ways.
And when flock OF them invade
The stiffness, and on dress parade,
Ger snow-white fields with stately tread,
Or circling darkly overhead,
Disport in antics that proclaim
Them despots, still their very name
In winter makes our pulses glow
We love them though their name is Grow.

p.ur. Per.onaI Appsarane..

All that we know of Paurs personal
appearance from his own writings Is
found in ii Cor. K. 10, which indicates
that he did not possess the advantage
of a distinguished or imposing pres
ence. His stature was somewhat di-
minutive, his eyesight weak (see Acts
xiii, 5, and Gal. iv, 15), nor did he re-
gard his address as impressive. Much
of this personal criticism, however.
may have been the outcome of the
apostles desire to avoid magnifying
himself or his own talents. A fourth
century tablet represents him as ven
cradle looking and dignified, with a
high, bald forehead, full bearded and
with features indicating force Of char
acter One ancient writer says Paurs
nose was strongly aquiline. All the
early pictures and mosaics, as well as
some of the early writer's (among them
Malalus and Nicephorus) agree in de-
scribing the apostle as of short stature.

Sunday School Contest .

The wretched walking Of Sunday did
not discourage the enthusiasts in the Sun
day school competition. North Ellsworth
had five more present than a week ago,
although in that part of the city the trav-
cling was even worse than the preceding
Sunday.
The standing of the schools is as fol-
lows: Congregational, 1855; Baptist,
Ass; Ellsworth Falls, 1925; Methodist,
1925; North Ellsworth, 2s.45. With the
workers warming up in enthusiasm and
zeal, no school is secure in it's position.
The race for the ribbons to be awarded
for attendance and growth is even more
interesting than the contest for the ban
ner. The leaders for the attendance rib
bons are: 1, Mrs. Whitney's class, Ellis
worth Falls; 2, Miss Holmes class, Con-
gregational; 8, Miss Milliken's class,
Ellsworth Falls.
In the contest for the ribbon for growth,
the B. B. 3. class of the Baptist school
has passed the B. B. class, but neither is
among the first three, W hich are: l, Mrs.
Pomeroy's class, Methodist; 2, Mrs.
Whitney's class, Ellsworth Falls; 8, Mrs.
Greely's class, Methodist.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY %, 1914.
Apply the Remedy.

1t is good for a community to have
its shortcomings pointed out by an
unprecedented observer. Even though
he may tell us nothing we did not
know before, the very fact that others
see our failings brings them home to
us with new force. We feel just a
little bit ashamed to be held up for an
arms length view of ourselves.
If, in addition to diagnosing our
disease, this same unprejudiced OBJ
server points out the remedy, then,
indeed, there is real cause for shame
if we do not honestly seek to apply
the remedy.
This is just what Rev. Mr.. Booth
did at the meeting of the Ellsworth
Merchants association last Friday
evening. A newcomer in Ellsworth,
he has already discovered the lack of
unity which characterizes Ellsworth
as business community, manifest by
two organizations with the same
primary object-the advancement of
Ellsworth commercially and indus
trially-but pulling apart instead of
pulling together, dissipating their
force, and defeating the very ends
which both seek.
The disease prescribes it's own
remedy:
Get together!
The remedy is SO simple, and it lies
within ourselves. Shall we apply it,
or shall we continue our internal
chickering's and gatherings - playing
the fiddle while Rome burns?
And who will pay the fiddler?
