Hattlesbnrg Citizen.
The Greene County Herald la
menting some miscarriage of justice
in the recently held court of its
county makes the following CON-
ment:
There is nothing that makes the
whole people get sorer on the law,
than to see at one term of their
court two or more quite apparent
miscarriages of justice. We are
living in time when the high call
is ringing out to every man whatso-
ever be his part TO play in uphold
ing the best ends Of government
and law endorsements. When any
thing less than this comes TO light
there IS disappointment and dis
CONTEXT which makes for bad con-
ditions in the future. But let us
hope for the best anyway as mis-
takes can be made at anything. "
Bro. Faux should not be discoui
aged. Now and then this will occur
but the good folks OF south Missis
sippi are lin the saddle. and suct
as he complains OF won t happen Of
ten. Get your best men to serve or
your juries, and you can trust then
to see justice is done.

Bro. Burton Kindly Agrees To Some
Exceptions.

That's pretty hard bump which
the Ellisville Progress gives the
State Press bunch 10 his article
which is reproduced in this issue.
We take it that Bro. Burton except
ed the Herald editor in the few he
let out as being not in the class in
which he was putting the main body
OF those assembled at the Columbus
associational meet. So we are not
offended or writing any brief for
those whose course of flunkeying to
the monied interests has brought on
this scathing criticism which has ba-
sis of trath in it which is going to be
hard to successfully controvert.
However. 10 all kindness we do say
thai we think the Bro Burton who
WASH t there, would have excepted
more, had he been there. Greene
County Herald.
Yes, we excepted brother Faux and
will take his word for as many others
as he thinks should not be classed
with that bunch of toad eaters.
But as to us attending such a
meet and taking part in the pro-
ceedings we beg most humbly to be
excused. we never waste our time
that completely. Besides we try
never to loose our temper. And
then we are trying to quit GUS

MILLIONAIRES AND LAW

There is notion everywhere that men

not serve the interests of those lower in
me social scale, even though they be
chosen as representatives of the lower
classes. When Lenin took over the Rus
san government, protests were heard
that a man of his intellectual standing
would not be able to cooperate with the
proletariat. and predictions were even
made that he would betray his followers.

Bernard Shaw, himself one Of the mil

At the end Of winding path that
leads up a hill and through a stile, stands
a rambling, old fashioned brick building,
surrounded with huge oak trees, which
bend over il in protecting manner, and
whisper of long life spent on this pie
turesque spot This is the home of thirty
University women.
An interesting home is Welch Hall,

the Missouri Military Academy. Now it
is a girls dormiiory, but eve nyet relics
of the academy DAYS play a part in the
life of the girls, if nothing more than to
from the basis for stunt.
A real home is found in this piciur-
esque spot, where the girls have much the
feeling of one big family. All The priv
ileges and comforts Of home are found
midst such surroundings, and Missouri
spirit is al lis height.
In my college days" said one old
grad, Almost all OF the boarding houses
were homes for the girls who stayed
there. But now, keeping roomers is done
on such large scale, that it has become
a commercialized occupation, and few
real homes are found for the girls. Few
University women really know their land
ladies', and on the other hand, few land
ladies know the girls who stay with them.
1t is rare privilege the girls of WEIGH
Hall have in enjoying such home. |

Doctor Hedrick Discusses Theory
of Einstein and Eclipse of Sun

appear on the Photographic plate as be-
side il, due to this phenomenon"
Doctor Hedrick explains the above
statement taken from the editorial
columns Of the Christian Science Monitor
as follows:
These men are trying TO take pictures
of the sun and stars that may be behind
it to determine the exact movement Of the
star as the sun passes and the star casts
its light in curved line around the edge
Of the sun. The stars that are in reality
behind the sun are expected to move, but
the movement of stars is so sligh, that the
general public cannot imagine it.
IF person were to try and look at a
period, at the end of sentence, that was
a city block away, they nigh, get some
idea of the space through which the star
moves in casting its light around the sun.
That is what these Investigators are try
ing to photograph and it is of very deli
cate nature.
htEdIuing lnt sidicncIlI tndt il INT
Einstein theory is proved true the entire
mass of theories of geometry will have
to be completely recast and that the gen.
orally accepted ideas Of almost every
thing-time, space, energy-will have to
be altered, Doctor Hedrick said.
I'VE will continue to teach the same
principles Of geometry and man will keep
on building railroads with the same
theories as before. The Einstein theory
will not effect such things in such way
that we will notice it. The effect could
only be noticed at a distance from the
earth as is the sun. and the difference
there will be so slight that most persons
cannot imagine it.
THE Newton theory had some things
that were slightly off. The planet Mer-
cury is out Of line about forty seconds OF
a minute once in every 100 years. But
few persons can realize how slight this
is.
The Einsicin theory is an important
one and is Of great interest TO many per-
sons but it is exceedingly hard to under
stand. Most persons do not realize how
little of the theory they do understand. L..
said Doctor Hedrick.
The Columbia evening Missourian., 1922-12-01

The Einstein theory Of relatively with
its basic concept that all things are rela-
tive to the individual again arises as a
subject for discussion among investiga-
tors who have tried to prove or disproye
the theory.
The eclipse Of the sun last September
and the results obtained by various in
yestigators with their recording photo
graphic plates, who set up their para
phernalia in the line Of the eclipse, is
expected TO prove Of greater importance
than any previous eclipse in the history
of astronomy because Of the fact that
the result obtained is expected to prove
or disproye the Einstein theory.
But the general public will never know
whether or not the theory is right or
wrong if it depends upon the results OBJ
iained by the expeditions which are
striving to determine some Of the i'm
portant points of the theory, according
to DR.. E. R. Hedrick Of the mathematics
department of the School of Engineering
The general public does not even un-
derstand the Newton theory although
they may think that they do" said Doc
tor Hedrick. Most persons might as
well try to determine whether a Hindu
poet is greater than poet Of China.
Very few will ever go to the trouble Of
learning either of the two languages in
order to study the works of the two
poets. And very few persons will ever
study the first principals of astronomy or
geometry to find out about either the
Newton or Einstein theory"
The experiments conducted by these
expeditions striving to photograph the
movement Of the sun and the stars
whose light We see. although they are
behind the sun. are expected to be of
the utmost importance TO facts concern
ing the material universe, explains DIR.
Hedrick.
The Einstein theory claims. As one Of
the fundamentals, that all space is
warped BY the mass Of anything contain
ed in it, This is expected to be proved
BY the results of the sclipse. because, if
this theory is correct, some of the stars
which in reality are behind the sun will

PAPER MUST BE CONSERVED

Paper forms the network OF commu-
nication whereby the continuity and
progress, ,cf civilization is kept up. Pa
Tcr has mnrc uses perhaps than any 9TH
c- commodity: it is used foremost, for
printing. bu. ii is also used for clothing,
fo- wrapping, and for countless other
things. Il would be a serious check
ruon civilization if the use of paper had
10 be discontinued. @
There Is really danger that the sup
piy Of wood pulp, from which paper is
made. viii gradually decrease until it
becomes exhausted. The problem is
concerned with the diminishing Of the
forests which supply the pulp for paper.
Il Is a problem Of conservation Of the
forests. and a problem Of economy in the
use ol paper. Authorities on forestra.
iIoa in the United States say that six
;9as cf print paper are equal to an aver
age Of an ac-c Of standing timber So
the saving of waste paper can really cu,
out some Of the loss Of timber.
LIST year the aviation Army by its
collection Of waste paper saved 1000
acres Of timber. Everyone could private
ly identify himself with a national pro-
gram Of conservation Of paper if he
would economic in the use of paper
himself. II the use Of paper could be
cut down, our forests would have a
chance to catch up. At the present rate
Ct consumption of paper. the end of our
forests is in sight. Sooner or later, leg
is,afiye action will have to be taken to
halt the fast-diminishing supply Of wood
pulp.
