MY SUNDAY MORNING.

There is q difference in the very
feel of the day--a quiet in spite oil
traffic; calmness in spite of agita-
ton; sereneness in spite of trouble
rumors-it is Sunday morning.
1t is the holiday of the poor; the
rest day of the toiler; n foretaste of
tne land OF the eternal morning where
those who have grown weary may
rest.
Back there at the beginning God
sanctified the seventh day when He
rested from His labor of creation.
When mama fell to sustain the lives
of the wandering people of The Book

have become skeptical as to county
fairs. corn shows, etc. There weis
about rs exhibits, probably more, as
several came in late. A large mum
Der of farmers were present, and tn,
occasion was pleasant from social
point of view.
In another column will be found
the names of exhibitors and prize
winners.
Several features were prominent.
There wasn't Il sorry lot of corn III
the entire exhibit. 1t was MS perfectly
matured corn as can be found any
where. The splendid season of 1921
gave ample time for maturing. Even
some of the largest specimens, Boone
County for instance, was thoroughly
matured. The largest corn, while
more generally n favorite, is not al
ways the best. Several prizes wei,
awarded the smaller varieties.
The pure bred varieties, both white
and yellow, were the favorites with
tho judges, for the reason that :,
pure bred variety is, nine times out
of ten, the best corn. just us a pure
bred steer, sheep or any other am
mai, is always Il better and more
valuable animal than scrub. Serum
animals are being RAPIDLY wcedc.

THE EARTH COULD BE SWAL-
LOWED BY THE WHIRLING
VORTEX OF A SUN-SPOT

Our ancestral sun, as pictured by
! I.aplace, originally extended in a
slsIessef luminous vapor beyond the
boundaries Of the solar system. Ro-
tattng upon its axis, it slowly con-
tracfed through loss of heat by rad
iation, leaving behind it portions of
its mass, which condensed to form
the pfahets. Still gaseous, though
now derfser than water. it continues

. ,Lap1ace,s hynot hesis has been Sub
jected in recent years to much criti-
cism, and there is good reason to
doubt whether his description of the
mode of evolution Of our solar sys-
tenn is correct in every particular.
All critics agree, however, that the
sun was once enormously larger than
it now is, and that the planets orig
iinally formed part of its distended
mass.
Even in lis present diminished
state, the sun is huge beyond easy
conception. Our own earth, through
so minute a fragment of the prime
val sun, is nevertheless SO large that
some parts of its surface rave not
yet been explored. Seen beside the
sun, by an observer on one of the
plants, the earth would appear as
insignificant speck, which could be
swallowed with ease by the whirl-
ing vortex of 4 sun spot. If the sun
were hollow, with the earth at its
centre, the moon, though 100000
miles from us, would have DOM and
to spare in which to describe it's or
hit, for the sun is $4,000 miles in
diameter, so that its volume is more
than a million times tina. OF the
earth.
But what Of the stars, proved by
the spectroscope to be self-luminous,
intensely hot, and formed of the
same chemical elements that con-
stitutc the sun and the earth? Are
they comparable in size With the
sun? Do they occur in all stages of
development, from infancy to old
age? And if such stages can be
detected, do they afford indications
of the gradual diminution in volume
which Laplace imagined the sun to
experience?
