CUR SHRINKING SUN.

It's Diameter Becomes About Four
Miles Less Each Century.
There arc various theories TO account
for the enormous store Of heat and
light in the sun. The theory now gen,
orally accepted by physicists is that
the gradual contraction of the sun in
cooling is the chief source of apparent
lnexhaustible energy. 1t has been cal
culated that at the present rate Of ex
penditure of heat the suns diameter
would contract four miles In century
and I'm few millions Of years It may
become as dense as the earth.
The sun is supposed to be composed
Of much the same materials as the
earth. except that they are at a much
higher temperature. About forty Of
the seventy terrestrial elements have
been identified by the spectroscope as
existing in the vapors around the sun
Astronomers think that they find traces
there of very few substances not al.
ready known. Even these may be dis,
covered on the earth some day
1t has been calculated that the heat
thrown on square mile exposed at
noon under the equator would melt in
an hour 2G,000 tons Of ice. This amount
has to be multiplied fifty million times
to arrive at the quantity of heat re
ccived by the earth's surface during q
single hour Yet this enormous supply
Is even tess than one two-thousand
millionth part of what the sun pours
forth in all directions in space. 1t

THE POLITICAL ASPECT

Republicans find abundant cheer in
the strictly political aspects of Tues
days election. They elected Repub-
leans to fill all vacancies in Congress
caused by death of Republicans, and
captured the Twenty-third District of
New York. This is normally Demo-
cratic, the late Representative Goul-
den, Democrat, having a plurality of
$500 in 1914. A vigorous fight was
waged by both parties on national
issues. Massachusetts once more
swung in the Republican column. New
Jersey Republicans reelected the
House and will have control of the
General Assembly on joint ballot The
Republican gains in Kentucky are
surprising, in view of ante-bellum
claims of the Progressives. Early re-
turns indicated the election of Ed
win p. Morrow Of Somerset, Republi-
can, eX-congressman, over "A. o. Stan
ley, one of the ablest and most prom
inent Democrats of Kentucky. Last
year Senator Beckham defeated Will
son by $1,000 plurality. The Repub-
lican tide was so strong in Philadel-
phia that even the large and in
fluential band of Republicans who
supported the independent candidate
for mayor, backed by the city admin
istration, could not stem it.

ACCIDENTS ON STREETS
ARE STILL POSSIBLE

Residents of the city and also our
rural friends have been exceptionally
fortunate the last few weeks in avoid
ing accidents on the streets. The work
Of excavating for the improvement
and the building of the new streets
has been accomplished without anyone
receiving serious injury because of the
torn up condition of the thorough
fares. There is till some chance,
however, of pedestrians getting hurt
if care is not used in getting about
the streets.
1t will only be a short time now
until the work will be completed, and
this city will have as safe a compile
ment of streets as can be found in any
city. The walks at all crossings will
be made to conform as nearly to the
curb lines as possible. Walks will be
extended, where necessary, to meet
the curb.
Until all these improvements are
made everyone should use extra care
to avoid injury. While red lights are
placed at all the dangerous places at
night, people who pass these points
must keep close watch for unexpected
obstacles. 1t is hoped the whole work
will be accomplished without a single
accident of consequence.

CHRISTMAS AND THE WAR

Peace on earth, good will to men, is
not an idea that has faded from the
earth, except temporarily in a number
of what were formerly called the most
enlightened nations. How these coun-
tries, once resenting any thought of
defective civilization, can go into an
other Christmas season and feel COM
Portable, could not easily be compre-
hended. One way exists, but the
Christian peoples, armed to the teeth
and lunging ferociously at each other,
grant it scant notice Their days are
given to slaughter, and their nights
to planning destruction. No doubt it
is true that in the present stage of the
worlds development millennial
peace is but a vision of the dim flu
ture, but at the end of fifteen months
of war the fighting along continent
wide lines is still wholly inconclusive.
The sword is not cutting the knots.
Tens of thousands are slain monthly,

Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Covert, with
their eight children, among whom was
Benjamin r. Covert, still of this city,
came to Ionia county from Orleans
county, N. Y, and settled in Keene
township, eight miles west of this city.
They had been proceeded by two other
children, John who came in 1898, and
Henry, who arrived in 1910. Four
others followed at different times, the
family having fourteen children in all,
of whom only three now survive. They
are Mrs. Melissa Sparks of Belding,

The lady appears not to have returned

In the letter In which she took leave

With present conditions prevailing
Bedding City Hospital will soon out
grow its present quarters. More
patients are being taken care of there
than in either Greenville or ionia in
situations. One nurse is employed all
the time and in the last few weeks
the services of three and four have
been needed.
At the present time nine patients
are receiving attention. At least that
many more were denied admission
because of lack of room. Last Satur-
day two operations were performed
and Monday one. Others have been
performed every week. Patients have
been coming from all parts of the
country within radius of twenty
miles of Bedding. A need is felt for
quarters where cheaper rates can be
arranged.
