The Heavens in December
WILLIAM F. RIGGE

If we are credulous enough to be-
lieve a certain calamity bowler who
calls himself a professor and tries
to overwhelm US with his superior
learning by using a few technical
scientific terms, the United States
during this month will be swept by
the most terrific weather cataclysm
experience since human history be-
gan" Big words. especially the
word "cataclysnl," but full of arrant
nonsense and ignorance. This
month of December will pass like
any other month of December. 1t
may possibly break the record tri-
fle by being warmer or colder than
any of those we have observed, or
by being more or less stormy and
the like, but we may safely wager
our whole fortune that nothing at
all will happen that can in any true
sense be called 'thc most terrific
cstaclysm experienced since human
history began" .
To quiet the apprehensions of
those amongst us that are apt to be
timorous, it may be worth while to
examine the statements Of this
prophet of evil. To begin with, his
name does not deserve mention, be-
cause it is not to be found on the
roll of members of any scientific
society, nor among the writers OF
respectable journals. Only irrespon-
sible and sensational newspapers
would print his nonsense and illus
trate it with lurid pictures.
Has Happened Before.
I. The reason that the United
States will be swept this month by
the most terrific weather cataclysm
experienced since human history be-
gan,"he says, is lowing to strange
grouping of six mighty planets,
such as has not been seen in score
of centuries" The six planets will
be grouped, indeed, but this group
ing is so far from being strange
that similar one occurred last
May and August, and then nothing
unusual happened that we know of
except that score of centuries have
since rolled by in the vision of this
lSnoramuS.
2. He maintains that each planet
causes a spot tA break out on the
sun, so that when two or more
planets are near together, their
spots coalesce and produce proper
tionately larger ones, and these
spots do mischief to the earth. This
is not only a gratuitous assumption,
but also a false one, for the simple
reason that the number of spots OIL
the sun is known to increase and
decrease in cycle about II years,
while there is no such cycle in the
grouping of the planets.
High Sun Spot.
3. He says that the sun spot on
December II will be the hugest on
record, so large that it will be visi-
BILE to the naked eye and that no
such spot has ever been large
enough to be seen without the aid
of instruments. Wonderful learning
and observing! when astronomical

Jazz Makes Fingers

Reading, Nov. 2o,-Another use
has been found for the jazz.
AT the Reading high school, Miss
Mary H. Mayer, head of the COM

hammer the keys to the strains of
the latest jazz strain. So phono-
graph and set of the jazziest. rec
ords to be found have been installed
as a part of the school equipment.
I'VE start the beginners off with
a slow waltz, and by the time they
have been in the classes a few
weeks they are touching the keys
in perfect rhythm to the snappiest
jazz number" said Miss Mayer.
