! WORLD MOVED FASTER
Exsstin0 Conditions Would % Very
orsatiy Upsst by increased nota-
tatloN, ~ Shown Here.

Conjecture has often been made as
to what would happen II the earth
were to rotate faster upon its axis
than 1t does. OF course. IL 1t went IS
times as fast as 1t does now. bodies
at the equator would weigh nothing
person would Jump up into the mir
and fail to come down again. A man
might weigh 200 ut the poles and
nothing at the equator, while his
weight would vary for intermediate
points. II e~approached the equator
he would get lighter and II he re.
coded from 1t he would get heavier.
A man could carry a house on his
shoulders very near the equator. while
near either pole ne could only carry
what one can now. On this account
labor would be very deer near the
poles and very cheap near the equa-
tor. It would certainly be interesting
to know which section of the earth
would be more populols--whether
everyone would 60 north for good
wages or go south for cheap work
men. The railroad problem would be
momentous unless the railroads all
ran east and west, wher uniform
rate would obtain on any particular
east-nnd-west line.
Journeys to the south would be even
more popular than they are now. for
they Would make everyone feel better
and in buoyant spirits; more springy,
too. so that people could walk far
Their without getting tired. and could
jump over any obstacle that preaent-
ed itself without coming: down with
too hard thump.
There u no planet now known that
has such rapid rotation as 10 pic
tured here. but there are several
where man would weigh q great deal
less than on earth. On the NOON
man would weigh only ,ifty or i'ixty
pounds and could jump ss many feet
without suffering serious discomfort.

"NO matter How Many"
(NeW York Sunl

A number of students of the strug- gle in Europe have devoted time and gray matter to speculation as to the size of the army the United States pro- poses to establish in the course of it's war against Germany. Some have said we should raise 5,000.O00 men; others have hit on totals larger or smaller as their individual concep- tiOns of tho task before us suggested.
 The most satisfying estimate of the number of soldiers we shall put In the field that has come to the Suns no tiCe, is that originating in the cap able mind of General Peyton C. March. Chief of Staff, and by him for mally communicated to the House Committee on Military Affairs ycster- day. General March had said that with eighty American divisions on the western front the enemies of Germany would have "a marked superiority in rifle power" and would be able to force the fighting to a finish The newspaper report of his statement continues:
 Asked if the 4,0O0, ,O0O men it is in tended to have in France by next June 30 represented the maximum power which America intended to supply, General March replied that it was by no means the maximum.
 i've intend to supply all the men necessary, no matter how many that may be- he told the committee"
 A graduate of West Point, highly trained in mathematics. accustomed to exact computations, General Pey- ton C. March in this single sentence answered every question that can be asked concerning the size of the army America IS building: and his fellow countrymen when he revealed this in teresting piece of military informa- ton to the enemy,

stance has recently occurred in ona of our largest cities.
 The very fact that the death rata has been reduced in recent years ops crates in many cases against it's furtheT reduction.
 The foolish argument is often used that ''our death rate has deCreaseds and is lower than certain other conl- munities, therefore we are doing we'll enough. A slight increase won't mako much difference" etc.
 Ignorance and a lack of a sense 0f responsibility for the lives thus sacri- feed for the dollar accounts for this foolish attitude.
 Over there in the army our boys are dying for principle. Over here in civiF life they are dying to save a few public dollars.
 During the past 16 years about 26 per cent of the total deaths Gin the areas where the most reliable death records are kcpt have been of babies under five years of age Two million under age one, three million in allA Fully two million of these three n1il-t lion were lives wasted by preventable disease due to a lack of or neglect of available life saving l1nowledge
 Millions of infants, youths and young adults died in the previous decades rom lack of health knOWlege which science even then possessed. simply be- cause the nation or state failed to teach it to the people
 If this had been done there wouldt now be no need for American women. and children to take up the labor off mon.
 It is not pleasant to discuss our own deadly follies
 But every day We waste , 1000 lives. It IS cheaper to bury them than to Cdu>2te them healthwise.
 If we are as civilized as we think we are; 1T We are as devoted to human uplltt as We claim to be we should Without delay establish a compulsory health educational plan that will serve : ana conserve our people from infancy to old age.

COMMUNICATED.

To the Editor of the Herald.
 Dear Sir:-It is with a feeling of most agreeable surprise and satisfac tlon that l note in your esteemed journal that the band of the Republi- can Guard is coming to this city: also that you call them by their name. Some of your contemporaries say the French Band" but they don't know what they are!
 There are twenty arrOndissements. or wards, in Paris, each has a very com fortable lOunging place of its own, generally park,--as the Pare Mon ceau, the Buttes Chaumont, the Tuil- cries, the Luxembourg, etc So every ward, each day throughout the sum mer is furnished by the government of the people, for the benefit of the people, with the music of some milf tary band for a period of three hours during summer afternoons. and two hours during the fall Well. sir, when the announcement in the daily pa pers say that the "MusiQue Miitaire de la Garde Rationale de la Repuh- lque" will play tomorrow at the Tuil- cries Gardens. or wherever they may he assigned. there is a larger crowd of connoisseurs arN dilettante than at any other co~ro"t in the town. On the streets Sllirtino tho park delivery s wagons vchi"lc.. ".>d pedestrians halt. aS long as tNcv 1nre to listen to tho band. You" v''it"~ h"s heard this band many tir1oe and knows that ther" is in "tor" for our town the greatest r'urjC"l treat that has been through here since tho visit of Guil- mant. to the South church some IS years ago, or the performance of tho Io at about the same time
 They rendered "Carmen" with a vi%or '< "XDrce i"'N such q hold .ag- ercssiveness ,;rl '- -,~ oHSv familiarity of their Onora "-,.' cuch 2 fault1ess technique that an, lover of the great masters must have loft with feelings of pleasure that might last lifetime.
 The coming concert is patriotic, Your correspondent has no wish to influence the program. Most every body understands "Faust' "Il Trova- tore" Carmen and I think that the people ought to have a large dose of this music that we don't hear very often, and never hear played right, while they may take a smaller dose Of the patriotic airs which we do hear very often, and sometimes hear played right but make them play the "Marseillaise."
 hope too. that these artists will ho furnished with seats for use during interludes stand for the display of the selection about to be played so people can know what it is, and every other comfort. I will interpret , between the chef or any of the lads If any one wants me to. There is not a foreigner in that band. Every man Is French. and every man an artist.
 Thanking you for all this space, just to post the people.
 Yours truly
