Now. the whole question Is there. Do
these major resemblances between Mars
and the earth warrant us IN concluding,
in spite OF many minor differences. that
Mars is like the earth in being theater
of life? Some astronomers. and Prof
Pickering is among them, are disposed

with.

have said, resemble weather bulletins
This is because they are mostly confined

TO Phenomena on Mars which appear to
be connected with the changing state Of
It's atmosphere II is difficult 10 resist
the conclusion that many OF the objects
whose appearance was recorded by the
observer were really clouds floating in
the atmosphere of Mars. These are seen
mostly along the limb. or edge. of the
globe of the planet where the eye ranges
through a greater thickness OF atmo-
sphere, and Prof. Pickering arrives AZ
the conclusion that the proportion OF
watery vapor in the atmosphere on Mars
is greater than In that OF the earth. This
would have an important effect IN modl-
Tying the low temperature TO which Mars
Is subjected in consequence OF It's great
distance from the sun-lil. 10000 miles as
against e30o0.000 miles for the earth.
But, while his observations lead TO the
conclusion that the amount OF the vapor
OF water In the atmosphere of Mars Is
relatively great, they also show that the
quantity OF liquid water upon the planet
is very small. Yet there appears to be
enough 10 produce some remarkable
phenomena. For instance, while the
northern snow-cap on Mars was reced-
ing. curing the advance OF the last Mar
tian spring, in its northern hemisphere,
a dark area south OF the snow became
conspicuous. At first It was 80 miles
long. Within two days its length had in
creased to 500 miles, and within another
two days to about 1000 miles,
| This strange area had blush color,
and shiny surface" suggesting that Il
was covered with water formed by the
melted polar snow. but Prof. Pickering
thinks that IL was more probably a vast
, marsh, whose soil had been moistened
by the snow-water. go that the thick
swampy vegetation spranE up almost
Immediately. ana gave dark hue to
the entire region.
The most original suggestion offered
by Prof. Pickering lie that the atmos-
phere OF Mars is remarkably foggy, and
that. owing 70 the general flatness OF
the surface, without hills and mountains.
the fog may be localized at night in
selected regions, under artificially pro-
duced conditions (probably OF an cleo
tricai nature) so that It's moisture may
stimulate vegetation, IN the absence OF
sufficiently OF water In the soil.
The general result Of these observa-
tons is TO strengthen the argument for
the Availability OF Mars. although II yet
remains for some sharp-eyed astronomer
of the future TO catch n glimpse OF some
unquestionAble sign or signal. indicating
the actual presence OF Inhabitants.

BY GARRETT P. sERvIss.

The old mystery Of the planet Mars is
made to appear in new form by tho
series Of observations which Prof. Will
liam II. Pickering has been publishing
from month to month during the year
1914 PROT. Pickering has made his tele-
scopic studies of the "ruddy planet at
the Jamaica, West Indies. station OF the
Harvard observatory. where the stmos-
pheric conditions are extraordinarily ia
vorable for astronomical observations.
Prof. Pickering's reports almost resem-
BILE weather and crop bulletins from an
other world, and their interest for read
ers OF a speculative turn OF mind is in
tense. In fact, their statements must APP
peal TO every person who has any intel
lectual curiosity concerning things be-
yond the limits Of his every day occupa-
tions and amusements
Let us recall, to begin with, what the
special claim Is that the planet Mars
makes upon our attention. There IL a
pretty general agreement among those
who study the celestial orbs about us
that, of all the attendant bodies circlins
around our sun. there is none, outside OF
lile tNctils WifSh PANscheN " Wv
a succession OF regularly changing phe'
nomena so suggestive Of the presence OF
life and living creatures as are those
shown by Mars.
II you look at Mars with a powerful
telescope you will at once be struck by
its wonderful resemblance to q globe
covered with irregularly shaped areas
outlined like seas and continents. Even
suggestive color is not absent, some OF
the areas having a faint blush or green
ish tint and other being of a reddish OF
ochreous hue, These appear 20 be per-
manent features Of the planets surface
always occupying the same relative po-
sitions, although many periodical changes
take place in their details. Around the
poles of the planet you will see white
patches Of roughly circular form, the
extent OF which varies with the seasons
on Mars, spreading in winter ana reced'
ing in summer.
When you consider these things in con-
nection with the further facts that Mars
rotates on it's axis in almost exactly the
same period that the earth does (about
twenty-four hours). giving It days and
nights like ours, and that IL has the
same succession OF seasons that we have
