THE REASON WHY
WHERE DOES THE WIND BEGIN9

The movements of these currents of air leaves many pockets of space where there Is no air. and when one Of these Is uncovered the air rushea in and creates Q wind in doing SO These air currents are continually pressing against each other to get some place else. They change their direction according to the pressure that is being applied to them.
 Sometimes the pressure will be very light in one part of the air, many miles away perhaps, and then the air in another part, which is under great pressure, will rush with great force into the par where the pressure is light, and th4s form a big wind When the pressure stops the wind stops
 Wa have probably felt the wind which comes out of the value of the Automobile tire when the cap is taken off to pump up the tire. It is a real wind that comes out. The reason is that the air in the tube of the tire Is under great pressure. and when the opportunity is given to get where the pressure is light it starts for that place with q rush ana comes out Of the valve a real wind.

Why Does the Sound Stop When We Touch a Gong that Has Been Sounded?

When we touch the gong we stop the sound waves which the gong gives off when it is struck. These sound waves continue after the gong has been struck in continuous vtbra- tions until something stops them. When you touch the vibrating gong, you stop it's vibrating. If you only touch your finger to the vibrating gong you can feel the vtbra tions which cause a little tickling sensa- ton. Naturally when you stop these vibrations you stop the air waves which the vibrations cause, and thus also the sound of these air waves striking your ear are stopped and the sound ceases.

Is There a Man in the Moon?
 The markings which we see on the face of the moon when 1t is full can by q stretch of the imagination bs said to form the face Of man. On some nights this face appears to be quite distinct If however, we look at the moon through a telescope, we see distinctly that 1t is not the face of a man. Through a very large tel escope we can see very plainly that the marks are mountains and craters of extinct volcanoes It just hap pens that these marks on the moon, aided by the reflections of the light from the sun, which gives the moon all the light it has, make a comblna ton that looks like a face-F'rom the Book of Wonders.

NEW IDEA IN TRANSFORMATION
Trains to Slide On Runners, Separated
From Track Merely BY Thin
Film Of Water.

Looking toward the transportation
facilities Of the future. an American
electrical 1experimenter believes that
the chief means of travel will be trains
without wheels. running on single
tracks. and moving almost without
friction because they will slide on run-
ners separated from the track by q
thin film OF water. In short, the fact
that n plate of glass will glide prac-
tically without friction over another
II there Is a thin layer of water be-
tween them will be applied and work
ed out in running a train. The
idea Of a train without wheels is suffi-
GENTLY surprising. but, according to
the writer. a Frenchman had invented
such a train just before the Franco
Prussian war, and the project was not
resumed a~fterward. although a later
French inventor made some important
improvements. The advantage over
modern transportation. if such trains
become practicable, is prophesied as
n~Oiselessness Of operation, equal carry
ing capacity. and about twice as much
speed. The idea looks visionary but
after all 1t is not wise to distrust pos
sibilities for that reason.

TO BE NEW WORLDS WONDER
japanese at Work on Statue Of st.
Nichiren, Cutting It From
the Solid Rock.

On the Isle of Cows Head. in that
beautiful inland sea, which has been
called the Mediterranean of Japan. q
ledge Of rock Averlooks the water, and
here q small army of Japanese work
men are busy at the first cuttings that
will eventually carve out the largest
statue in the world. The Colossus or
Rhodes, ut one time one Of the seven
wonders OF the world, is said to have
been 100 feet high-a small thing com
pared With the figure of Liberty that
stands 151 feet above its pedestal in
New York harbor-but the Japanese
statue will be of even greater magni-
tude. Following the line OF the natu-
raj rock it will be a reclining figure
24O feet long, and therefore that much
more impressive than the Buddha at
Pegu. Burma, which from head to foot
measures 1872 feet. The Isle of the
Cows head is private property, and
this Brobdingnagian adornment is a
work of private enterprise. The re-
clining figure will be that of st. Nichi-
rem, who founded the sect Of Buddhism
that bears his name. In the wooden
model the saint lies asleep, facing who
ever sees him. his head pillowed on a
block. and his left arm extended
along his side a somewhat archaic fig
ure, yet with considerable realism.
For the enormous statue that IS to be
cut out Of the solid rock from the
model the trees and greenery Of the
Isle of the Cows head will provide a.
excellent setting.

 PREDICTS END
 OF DRY SEAS0Ss

New Haven. July 31-"You can say for me, that in my opinion, in three weeks, we will see the end of war prohibition" remarked Thomas F. Bitzsimmons, secretary of the Connecticut Retail Liquor Dealers association.
 If you notice, President Wilson is hurrying along his interviews with Senators relative to the treaty of peace and I believe that document will be signed in a few days and then there will be nothing to hinder a proclamation of the termination of war prohibition.
 T would like to know why 1t is, when Connecticut was one of the three states which refused to ratify the Eighteenth Amendment the gov ernment is sending in it's agents to insist upon the prosecutions under war prohibition? l consider that we have been given a pretty raw deal.'
 Secretary F'itzsimmons was told that Secretary Baker expected de- mobilization to be completed by Sept. 30 and 1t was suggested the local cafe men would then have three months in which to sell beer, as war prohibition would doubtless be end ed; but he suggested it was probable war prohibition would terminate even before that period.
