traversed the millions of miles which
separate us from Mars. 1t has, there
fore, been suggested that ten mirrors,
each one 40 miles in diameter, be
grouped next to each other. The total
of these mirrors would be about $780,
900 square miles, and it would be an
enormous problem to secure the glass,
the quicksilver for coating the glass
and the enormous quantity of iron
which would be required for the
frames of the mirrors. The Difficult
ties are so great that many say they
are insurmountable and that we shall
have to wait until the electric waves
have been perfected, or we have ma.
chimes which can cast a ray OF electric
light through space. Perhaps wireless
telegraphy indicates the way In which
we shall communicate with Mars, and
1t may be by sound, not by sight. Sci
ence has advanced tremendously in
the use Of sound waves, being now
able to talk 5000 miles or more with.

may be possible to talk around the
world by this method.
1t must not be forgotten, however
that when Mars is nearest to the
earth it is 10000, 900 miles away, and
that its extreme distance is $4,000.

before communication is established
with Mars, and even In that event
success depends upon the Martians

lst Just what she demands in head
wear-except the people whose bust
ness lies in supplying her demands.
Motor hats look simple, but they exact
much OF the designers, whose difficult
task lies in making them comfortable,
durable, attractive and in line with the
changing styles. Their manufacture
has grown to a business of great impor-
lance, and specialists in this particu-
lar line of millinery leave nothing un-
done that will make for the success of
their product. A rapidly and con-
stantly increasing demand rewards
them
The two motor hats shown here
are selected from a collection OF many
that have been designed for the com
ing season. Most of them are made
by combining pliable millinery braids
with silk, but the collection includes
others made entirely of silk or other
| fabrics. Among the latter those OF
the smart new stripes in jersey cloth
are gay and novel.
The most important factor in the
success OF a motor hat is its fit. This
has been assured in the two hats pic
tured, by the insertion OF the head
band of elastic cord that holds the
hat close to the head. This clever bill
OF management has been patented.
The hat at the left has a grace
