SETTLING SOME
IMPORTANT POINTS.


When Isaac Newton lay under an
apple tree one drowsy autumn day and
received bump on his somnolent
noodle from a dropping apple some
thing was started. Out Of the train Of
thought thon engendered he evolved
the theory Of gravity, which later was
accepted as law, and the principles
Of which has controlled science ever
since. instein was not satisfied with
the Newtonian law, and worked out
one for himself, presented to the world
as the Einstein theory of RELATIVELY. It
involves the fourth dimension, which
It's author presents as time, and on
which he bases his argument. Fol-
lowing his lead, another eminent OBJ
server suggests that possibly there
are other dimensions which must be
given due weight, and so the problem
Is expanding rather than contracting.

its substratum the proposition that
gravitation does not affert all sub

ment shows variation Of one TWEEN

deal, even on the end Of ones nose,
but when dealing with such bodies as
