COLD? BE GLAD
 YOU ARE NOT N
 A LUTHERAN

Boston, Dec. 30.-U. N S.) If tn ere is life on the planet Jupiter the Jupiterians would not be worried by the present little cold snap in New England because their normal tenn 4 perature is 130 degrees below zefo,y it was revealed yesterday by Prof. Donald N. Menzel, of Princeton Uni-I versity at the meeting of the Amert7 7 can Association for Advancement ot Science at Cambridge.
 Prof. Menzel told of a delicate ape pliance used at Lowell Observatory for testing the atmosphere of the@ planets. It is so finely balanced it registers the heat of ta1low candle three miles off.
 It was found that the temperature of Mars was about the same as this earth while Venus is much warmer. The temperature of Saturn hoverS under zero all the time. Jupiter and Saturn have an internal source of en- ergy. If they were warmed by the sun the distance is such that they would have a temp of 250 degrees below zero.

What the King Said
 a Hundred Years Ago

London. Dec. 30.-The ponp and ceremony attending the opening of Parliament probably attracts more at tention in the House of Lords than do the words of the Kings speech, but the last address from George V, de- Hvered a few days ago, contained no interpolation such as was once made fn a speech from the throne by George ".
 It is asserted that when he was re- gent, George ", made a bet with Richard Sheridan, the dranatist, that so little attention would be paid to the reading of his speech that he could interpolate any nonsense he nk- ed without anyone showing surprise
 The bet was accepted. The Regent paused in the course of the address and said distinctly "Baa. baa- black. sheep, and then went on. No one took notice of the strange words. Chagrined at the loss of his wager. Sheridan asked George Canning, the Premier, if he had noticed anything strange.
 the Prince say "Baa, baa black sheep" but as he was looking straight at yot( at the time, I took it for person7 allusion."
