public schools has sounded sane alarm about
this danger. When board steamship re-
turning home from Europe Miss Burchenal tried
rope-skipping on the upper dock. "One day the
captain stopped" she said, while was rope
skipping and remarked that 1t was a favorite
exercise with sailors. That gave me an idea IL
ropeskippng was considered excellent exercise
for men occupying cramped quarters, as they do
on a ship then it would be just the thing for
New York public school girls. And thought Of
combining it with dancing. for, OF course, every
body wants TO dance much as possible now"
So, therefore, Miss Elizabeth Burchenal is in
Producing the oldfashioned sport among school
children. She suggests it to older women whs
arc anxious 10 preserve their lightness and grace
of movement and who want to improve their
dancing step.
1--WE do not aim TO have the girls Jump the
rope in the oldfashioned way, where they stand
in ono spot and merely hop up and down." she
says. What we are striving for is to teach
them how TO skip the rope and dance at the
same time, thereby forming pleasant and ben
eficial combination of exercises.

is There MESSAGE from MARS i'm the CLOUDS?

PROFESSOR WILLIAM H. PICKERING OF
harvard University, Is almost daily discov.
erng something new about the planet
Mars. His latest discoveries give us new hope
OF some time opening communications with tho
earths rival.
Clouds exactly like the clouds which give
us rain. snow and sleet are nearly always visible,
Professor Pickering says upon the disk OF Mars.
These are difficult to observe because oddly
enough, they are almost the same color as the
soil on that planet. The clouds ON Mars are,
except in the polar regions, slightly yellowsh.
and not white like our clouds. This color In
perhaps duo to the grouping OF large number
of small clouds instead Of large masses of Clouds
as NO have them on the earth They would ap-
pear white In the latter case, just as ours do
1t may be, however, that the inhabitants of
Mars have some advanced method by which they
can produce or dispense large groups Of individ-
ual clouds whenever they please. If they can
the time may come when ON this sphere can
do the same
and Mars by means OF clouds here and clouds on
Mars would not be at all troublesome Just
as scholars finally succeed in decpherng lost
languages, they could soon work out the cloud
language which the Martans may even now be
flashing at us.
The rainmakers, who discharged bombs in
the air until rain clouds were formed, may be
one or the steps which may ultimately lead to
method OF making clouds and combining them
so that the Martians with powerful telescopes
could read our cloud signals
Professor Pickering says that individual
clouds on Mars are as much as several miles
In extent. They are seen In various combina

are sometimes 60 white that they are with diff

present at the north and south poles OF Mars
The clouds can be seen 10 shift, to form, to
disappear. After they have disappeared tho
ground on Mars can be seen 10 be wot In tho
tropics and covered with freshly fallen snow
in tho cold regions OF the poles.
Several times there have been such wide.
spread, continuous and torrential rains on Mars
that the clouds could be covering whole
hemisphere. This has happened also on this
earth several times In recent years,
Professor Pickering says that the annual
melting of the snows and flowing OF moisture
from pole TO pole takes place on Mars, just as 1t
does upon the earth, chiefly by foods and through
tie atmosphere. They must be more severe on
Mars. because there are no oceans like ours
to take care Of the floods.

over the high plateau OF the Andes Mountains
In Western Bolivia the storrnclouds OF the earth
often rise TO q height Of six miles above the
sea level. II the Marian atmosphere is equal
to our own. on account OF dimnution Of tho
surface gravity, the clouds or Mars should rise

erng has definitely observed measured Mar.

The atmosphere around Mars is ten times
lighter and purer than that around US. That is
to say, the force OF gravity on the surface Of
Mars is ten times weaker. Not only do the
clouds rise higher from Mars, but birds, winged
creatures and flying men necessarily have less

sity of having something to protect
his shiyering limbs from the cold.
The means of protection our prim.

rude covering of skins or strips OF

on the same incorrect principles and
as lacking in efficiency as the gar
ments of prehistoric times.
However heavy the clothes we put
on, they do not produce heat. All they
can do is to keep in small percent

which every healthy body is contin-
