UNUSUALLY LONG ECLIPSE.
Sun to Be Behind Neon Sept. 21.-
Darkness In East Africa.

CHICAGO, H., Sept. 2-The fact
that you do not live on the east coast
Of Africa. Australia or on islands in
the Southern Pacific ocean relieves you
of the unpleasantness of a dark day on
September II.
On that date. according to Prof. Ed
win 3. Frost of the University of Chi
cago and director of the Yerkes Observa-
tory, total solar sclipse will occur over
that region.
The moon, coming between the earth
and the sun, viii cast a shadow which
will sweep over the southern sea from a
point of the eastern coast of Africa near
the equator, cross a few scattered
islands and the continent of Australia
and then out to the Southern Pacific
ocean, he said.
This trail of the shadow will be
about 10 miles wide. The duration of
totalitN at different points will vary
from three TO six minutes and Professor
Frost declared this to be unusually long
eclipse.

soLoMoN's FOUR MYSTERIES

IN NI I = n1GV
Said old Solomon: 'There be three
things which are too wonderful for me,
yea, four which / know not: the way
OF an eagle in the air; the way Of a
serpent upon a rock; the way of a
snip IN the midst of the sea and the
way of a man with a maid" The ser
pent's way of ascending smooth and
almost perpendicular surfaces by
means of his efficient ribs has been
plain to PSYCHOLOGISTS for centuries.
Probably n of Solomon's neighbors
knew the secret. The way of a ship
In the midst of the sea is no puzzle
In these days Of Leviathans. Solomon
should have said "the way Of a ship
ping board in the midst Of the war"
AS for the eagle in the air, we are
only now, 2,S75 years after Solomon
went to sleep with his fathers, solving
the mystery. The eagle knew all about
air currents and Solomon didn't. The
eagle is easy for the men who make
gliders. They prefer to COP the
a~lbatross, which does more difficult
feats. But the fourth thing that mys-
titled the King Of Israel is still giving
It's students a headache.

The Russian crown jewels, valued at
more than $5OO,OOO,OOO, have been
listed for sale by the soviet govern
ment at Moscow. The realization of
such a large amount, translated into
Russian rubles, ought to give the
soviet presses a breathing spell. At
their present rate of publication of
paper money with only a soviet fiat
behind 1t, the presses must be on the
verge Of consignment to the junk shop.
And several millions of people all wei

with equanimity, at least.

Andre Tridon, famous psychiatrist,
testifies at a trial that it is impossible
for any n to tell the absolute
TRUTH" because no two people see the
same thing in exactly the same light.
Each gets a certain impression of a
happening. None is complete. You
have observed arguments, both sides
sincere, over what happened at a fire,
fight or similar occurrences. Gather
LOCO people at a banquet. Have each
write an account of 1t. You would
have to combine the 1000 accounts to
get a complete picture-the absolute
truth-and then a waiter would begin
arguments. 1t reminds one OF
he question asked by a person named
n Scripture: "What is TRUTH"

of the world. 1t is not a surprise, how
ever, to learn that in the two great

age number Of letters per i~nhabitant
is far and away above that In any
other country. In actual figures, 1t
works out at 112 a year for each per-

be extraordinary at first sight, but
when it is realized that they mean
