Something to Worry About.

AS if we haven't already enough to
keep our minds busy, with war and the
high cost of living! And our friends,
the learned astronomers, who study
the heavens just as carefully as the
average fellow does the innermost re-
cesses Of his pocketbook day before
pay, are intent upon adding to our load
Of worry burdens. They-some of
them-believe the sun is going to ex-
plode. One Of them, writing in Pop
ular Astronomy, points to the fact that
our sun is of advanced age, and pre-
diets it's finish as the leading figure
in our solar system. He finds that our
sun has contracted 100000 miles
from each side, thus giving its hot
center 186OOO,OOO miles less Of room.
So you see the suns center is rather
crowded for space. Something like the
three-room apartment couple when WIS.,
iting relatives begin their summer va
cation drives.-Syracuse Journal.

Cooperative Creamery.

Work on the organization Of a CO.
operative creamery has been in prog
ress for some time and has now
reached a point that makes such a
project almost a certainty.
A committee representing the
board of trade met a similar COM
mittee of the proposed creamery
company and came to an agreement
as to terms relative to the lease of
the "granite shed" property owned
by the board of trade.
1t is now expected that work will
be commenced in July on the new
creamery:
Success to the new organization is
our greeting.
