invisible to the naked eye, on large
number of photographs taken during
the past thirty years.
Its increase in brightness apparent
ly began on June 7th, and on June 9Th
it was 10000 times as bright as it
was originally and by far the most
brilliant star in the summer sky. 1t
tneu began to fade. at first rapidly,
and then. more gradually, with oc-
cassional oscillations in light. By
August first it had become reduced
to one one-hundredth of its greatest
Lrilliancy.
III is clear that the outburst of a
nova must represent something in
the nature Of a celetial catastrophe,
since no ordinary physical process
can account for the extraordinary in
crease of light within a few hours
Two theories have been suggested
to account for the phenomenon, the
collision of twostars, and the collision
of star with a cloud of nebulous gas.
At present there is little to choose
between them, but the results of the
the study of Nova Aquilae may aid
in decision
Apart from direct photography of
the region surrounding the star, and
accurate determinations Of its varia'
ton in light, the principal obser-
vational work at the Mount Wilson
Observatory has been devoted to study
of it's spectrum. In general this has
followed that of other temporary stars
Beginning with a spectrum in many
ways resembling a familiar stellar
type it developed series of broad
bright bands due to hydrogen an helum
These underwent many Variations,
but within a few weeks the bright
hands characteristic of nebulae began
to appear.
"a remarkable ana most important
development in the spectrum, de-
tected on photographs taken at
The Cordele dispatch. (Cordele, Ga.) 19??-1971, 1918-09-11

Mount Wilson, was the appearance
on the second night after it's discov-
cry of an extraordinary number of
fairly narrow absorption lines. With
the aid of comparisons with other
stellar spectra it has been found
possible to identify most of these
with lines due to the metals iron,
chromium and titanium. The in
,teresting feature, however, is that
they are displaced very greatly to-
ward the violet from their normal
positions.
NOW we know with certainty Of
no physical cause which can dis
place so large a number of lines to
such an extrent, and leave them
even moderately weil-defined, other
than motion in the body producing
them. Interpreted on this basis the
gas in which these lines are due is
approaching the earth at a rate of
900 miles a second. IL we are cor
rect in the hypothesis of motion it
is evident that this may represent
either an enomous expansion of the
body of the star, or a rush outward
of jets of gaseous material Most
of the dark lines showing these dis
placements disappeared within a very
few days.
"It is probable that Nova Aquilas,
like ather temporary stars, will be-
come gradually fainter but retain
for a long time the spectrum cha
racteristic of gaseous habulae. La
ter this will change into type well
known among some of the fainter
stars in the Milky Way which may
themselves be representatives of
ancient novae."

MAKING HOGS FAY

the grower has a good price for the

Crisp is marked and will continue,
for the start has been made in proper
manner. Hog raising is becoming
business. There is much abot it

here that we first found that Hoke

ay friend of Germany. We have not

STUDlNG NEW STARS

Some remarkable facts revealed

regarding Nova Aquilae No. 3, the
new star that bazed forth in the
heavens June s, last, as the result
of a celestial by DR.. Walter S.
Adams assistant director of the
Mount Wilson Solar Observatory.
"The appearance of the temporary
star or nova in the constellation of
Aqula on June 9Th is one of the most
Interesting astronomical events in
many years." said DR.. Adams in his
article. Although such stars are by
no means unknown, fifteen having
been discovered since 1891, no star
comparable with this in brightness
has appeared since the celebrated
star of Kepler in 1904.
Although such stars are called
novae, they are new only in the
