CHANGES IN ORBIT OF MOON
EHplains Fast That Eclipses DO Not
Occur on or About Same Dates
Every Year

Lunar eclipSeS always occur at full
moon, or when the sun and moon are
in opposition, and are caused 10y the
moon passing through earth'S shadow.
As the moon in her course passes the
sun once every month, and also places
the earth between herself and the sun
once a month, il is evident that il She
moved in the plane of tile eclipS there
would be either total or aunular
eclipse of the sun and total eclipse
of the moon every month. They do not
happen every fun moon because the
moons orbit is inclined to the ecliptic
the great circle of the heavens round
which the sun seems to travel from
west 10 east in the course of year, al
lowing her 10 pass the sun To an angle
Of nearly 3 degrees and 8 minutes to
the north AMI south of his track, pre-
venting such frequent occurrence of
eclipses. From the magnitude Of the
angle of inclination of her orbit to the
ecliptic an eclipse can only occur ON
a fun moon happening when the moon
is ut or near one of her nodes, or points
where her orbit fnterSectS the eclipse,
Therefore, If the moon does not travel
on the ecliptic which would result in a
lunar eclipse every fun moon, II is
logical to say that the moon does not
follow the same orbit year after year.
IL the moon followed the same orbit
year after year lunar eclipses would
occur on or about the same dates every
year, but the fact is that they might
occur any full moon.-Kansas City

GRIZZLY IS FAST VANISHING
Final Disappearance of Really Noble
Animal viii Be Regretted by All
Who Knew Him.

The grizzly bear has been known to
the white race little more than q
century. Lewis and Clark wrote the
first official accounts of him in 1903,
and he was first discussed publicly in
1914 by Gev. De Witt Clinton in New
York city, GuthrH's geography says
that he was named Ursus horrbilis by
Naturalist George Ord in 1878. Fossil
records Indicate that the grizzly is of
Asatic origin. He appears to have
come into America about a million
years ago over one of the prehistoric
land bridges that united Alaska and
Asia Bears and dogs are descendants
from the same parent stock. The
grizzly bear never eats human flesh,
is not ferocious and fights only in
Self-defense, He leads an adventurous
life, is a born explorer and ever has
good wilderness manners never
makes attacks The numerous cases in
which the grizzly has been made a pet
and companion Of man, where he was
thoughtfully, intelligently raised show
him TO be n superior animal, dignified
intelligent. loyal and uniformly good
tempered. Not u grizzly exists in any
of the four national parks of Califor.
mia, and that animal, once so cele-
brated in that state, is extinct there. He
is also extinct over the greater portion
of The vast territory which he formerly
occupied, and is Etrging on eXter-
mination.
