Normal School Class Day

The Glass Day exercises at the John
son Normal School on Tuesday morning,
June 10, were highly successful in every
particular. AS the orchestra struck up
the Metropolitan March, the graduating
class of forty, clothed in the regulation
cap and gown, made their appearance.
The sense of relief that comes to the
seniors with the folding of the cover of
the last "Blue Book" and the attendance
at the last recitation showed itself in the
exuberant spirits which overlooked in
the humor and repartee of Glass Day.
Normal hall, in which the exercises
were held, was deliberately decorated
with hemlock boughs, giant ferns, and
exquisite maiden hair. These made a
beautiful setting for the class motto,
which was written in gold letters on
white ground, "For the Greater Glory of
Vermont" The class, through its offic-
ers, welcomed friends, townspeople and
relatives to the following program, which
was somewhat varied from the usual
order by the giving of class prophecy 10

The laws Of most States compel
food manuf acturerS to print the
ingredi ents Of their products
on the label, and this enables
consumers to distinguish health

The low-grade baking powders
are made from alum, mineral

Consumers can learn the char

referring to the label, which
must state whether the contents

WHY The STARS TWINKLE,
Light of Heavenly Bodies Is Bent by
-e--- the Atmosphere.

The question of childhood: What
makes the starsS twinkle.2'' iva ssanI
swered probably by a bit Of verse OF
poetic fancy. But men asking the
same question sought scientific ex-
PLANTATION and found it.
Although we live upon its surface.
we are not outside of the earth, but at
the bottom of sea of air which forms
the .earth's Outermost layer and eX-
tends above our heads to a; height of
many miles. We cannot see, the stars
save as we look through this atmos-
phere, and the light which comes
through it is bent and oftentimes dis
torted so as to present serious OBJ
stacles to any accurate, telescope
study of the heavenly bodies.
Frequently this disturbance is visi-
bic to the naked eye, and. the stars
are said to twinkle, i. e.. to culver and
change color many times a second
solely in consequence of disturbed
condition of the air and not from any
thing which goes on in the air.
This effect is more marked low
down in the sky than near the zenith
it is worth noting that the planets
show very little of it because the light
they send to earth comes from a disk
of sensible area, while a star, being
much smaller and farther from the
earth, has its disk reduced radically
to a mere point whose light is more
in the atmosphere than is the broad
er beam which comes from the plan
cts disk.
AT all times, whether the stars twin
kle or not, their light is bent in its
passage through the atmosphere so
that the stars appear to stand higher
up in the sky than their true posi-
tions.
To the atmosphere with its suspend
ed dust and vapor is due. also. that
lengthening of day that we call twi-
light. Have you ever seen the twi-
light arch rise up in the eastern sky
just after sunset? Look for it from
a hilltop or some other place with an
open view to the east.-Wisconsin
