at terrific speed. and the temporary
pause noticed by Mr.. Raynor was an
Illusion (since It did not explode when
seen by him), for falling. bodies in.
crease their speed while falling toward
the enrth and It is impossible for them
to pause whatsoever; but should the
falling be in q curved line the rapidity
Of speed would apparently diminish with
the increase Of distance.
The meteor entering the tail OF Hal
ley's comet was also an Illusion. for
the tail Of the comet was many million
miles distant, and meteor can only be
seen while within the earth's atmos-
pherc and at no greater distance than
100 miles. They were in the line of

4 NEW FORM OF CALENDAR


An intercalary day will have to be
provided in leap year, similar to Christ
mas Day. ,
The important feature is this: There
ere no abrupt changes to get used 70;
and SO no sudden jolts which would
initiate against ready acceptance.
December % would be Christmas Day :
hecember 26 would be Monday. and so
N to the end of the week ana the cnd
81 the year--an arrangement that VII
opreal to the business man ana the
housewife as well.
Christmas Sunday and Christmas Day
will thus together form kind OF dou-
BE Sabbath. This point will stir up
oome debate, but I submit this ques-
don: What could be more appropriate
ehan the observance Of December. .
9 Z special sacred day. II not Sab
6eth day-not Monday. Wednesday,
Friday or any other day OF the week,
kut just Christmay Day?

ond not an argument, 20 l call attention

That It could be set in operation with
