MARS THEORY GETS JOLT
DR.. ]. A. Brashear Doubts Existence
of Life on Planet

The theory that Mars is inhabited by
folks very much like ourselves received
another setback at the hands of DIR. John
A. Brashear, the eminent Pittsburgh as
trouomer, named by Governor Brumbaugh
as one of the three most distinguished
Pennsylvanians to represent the State at
the Panama Pacific Exposition, at San
Francisco. Doctor Brashear spoke before
the Engineers Club. 1917 Spruce street
He was the guest of the Philadelphia
Association of Members OF the American
Society of Civil Engineers, which held its
annual meeting last night.
Doctor Brashear said that If there was
life on Mars It existed only at the equa-
torial regions The atmosphere on that
planet, he said. was rarer than at the
top of the Himalayas, where no life ex-
listed. The canals, so called. he said, were
a source of mystery. No one knows what
they really are. Doctor Brashear is a
believer in the popularizing of the science
to which he has devoted his life, and he
believes that it would be advisable for
every city to have free observatory
Just as II has free Libraries.

mountains, hills and villages of New England, the rolling prairies of the west and the sunny lands of the south, each appeals to all those who have lived among them. One who would be thrilled with the spirit of patri otism, must have as a part of the very tex ture of his body, and of his intellect,
 the scenes and traditions of his own
 land.
 "A second essential condition of
 true patriotism is a sense of responsi-
 bility in doing faithfully ones days
 work This stands before that which
 we commonly call our duty to our
 country; voting and taking part in public service for it is in the industry,
 ability and faithfulness of the great
 body of citizens, men, women, and children, in meeting the daily de- mands of life, that build up the wealth, institutions and the character of people.
 ''The third essential is that of pub- lie service. To this every citizen is bound to give some portion of his life. It may be an official position in town or city, as mayor. selectman or on the board of charity. There are times when the demand comes for courage ana Sacrlnce, when Tn order to meet this duty, man must withstand popular opinion for principles of truth and justice to his home and Again true patriotism recognizes the rights of, and our re- spect for other nations.
 I've have learned in modern l society that the rights of the in dividual are best protected by a recog- 1ition of the rights of others. The nations of the world, or at least a part of them, are now learning the esult of failing to respect this prin- iple, terminating in the greatest con- lict to be recorded in history. We elieve that our country leads in the ighest conception of patriotism. finally, in the foundation of our Re- 'ublic, stands the character of the 'eople and the source of character is Tn God We Trust Here everyone

The first of these drawings was turned over to the selectmen yesterday by Engineer McKernan. The map shows that to make both Broad and Bohemia streets satisfactory there will have to be slight cuts in some prop critics. At the corner land will have to be taken from the Deane, Clark and Corbin places. The improvement to the street will increase the valuc of their property, however, to such an extent that 1t is not expected they will offer any objections to the ac- ceptance of the proposed lines.
 After action is taken on the map the selectmen propose to have the engineer make surveys of other streets, preparing layouts that will re- move objectionable angles and other wise improve their appearance.

A Delightful Card Party

A beautiful social event of last week was a pre-lental affair given on Tuesday afternoon by Mrs. l. P. McConkey. The rooms of her attractive bungalow were profusely decorated with violets and carna- tions. Six tables accommodated the players and after several lively games of "5OO" the prizes were awarded to Mrs. Nordyke, Mrs. Chamberlain and Mrs. Williams.
 A delicious supper of two cours- es was served and about thirty guests were present for this happy occasion. Everyone including the hostess, was in a most gracious mood and all went merry as mar riage bells.
