This event marked the first really big autumn storm in the northern hemisphere of Mars so far this year. On that date the Mar tian season corresponded to our Sep tember IS. Early indications of au tumn made their appearance a month and a half ago at a Martian season corresponding to our late August These observations have been record- ed on photographs.

PLATED WITH STUDY
 OF NE|GHbOR MARS
LoWell's Opinions Seem Recently
 Borne Out

Flagstaff, Ariz., July 14.-Members of the staff of Lowell Observatory here are elated over recent studies of the
 planet Mars which, they assert. bear
 out the theories of the late Percival
 Lowell, founder of the observatory, as
 to snowfall and vegetation on the lit
 tie red planet. Mars, nearest neigh
 bor of this world with the exception of Venus, is closer to the earth now
 than at any time in IS years. Ob-
 servations have been in progress for the past five months each hour of every night that weather conditions would permit Hundreds of photo
 graphs and charts have been made.
 The seasons on Mars have the same significance as on our earth and occur In the same manner, but are about twice the length of our own, according to Doctors E. c. and V. M Slipher of the observatory staff. A statement by them on the results of the latest observations here follows:
 Winter has been occurring in the southern hemisphere of the planet Mars and the extensive dark areas there are now faint and have been so for some time, betokening the dead season of vegetation in conformity with the view held by Lowell re- garding the seasonal changes on the planet.
 The large winter cap of white about the south pole of Mars, which for some months has appeared to consist of only mist or cloud covering the south polar regions of the planet down to latitude forty degrees, is now dissipating and disclosing a man. tie of snow beneath. The spring sea- son for the southern hemisphere is | now approaching. the season there at | present corresponding to our March | 21, and these changes are character stic of late winter over the south of | Mars.
 .'In the northern hemisphere au- .umn is arriving and the polar cap here has already become conspicuous having increased rapidly during the asst few Martian nights. On the night ,f June F it was observed that when he planets longitude 265 came into Martian sunrise. and therefore visible o us, that q vast area there had turing the preceding night been GOV red by a bright canopy. This bright lood faded off toward the equator

ROOSEVELT WON'T RUN
Asst. Navy Secy. Not Candidate for
 Any Office, Friends Say

Washington, July 14.-Col. Theo- dore Roosevelt, assistant secretary of the navy, according to his close friends here, has at no time con- sidered running for lieutenant gover- nor of New York. and not only is not insisting upon running for the sena- torial nomination against Senator Cal der. but is not a candidate for the senate.
 Col. Roosevelt has not definitely an- nounced that he will not enter the senatorial race this year, but has de- clared he Is not a candidate.
 His friends believe reports that Roosevelt insists on running for the senate are being put out in the hope of compelling him to announce def- nitely and finally that he will not enter the race.

 In Calling Out Troops

Washington, July 14.-Pending re- ceipt of a reply to his telegram to c. E. Schaeff of St, Louis, receiver for the Missouri, Kansas and Texas rail- road, advising that he again call upon the governor of Texas for protection for the roads property and employees against attacks by striking shopmen, Secretary Weeks was withholding fur ther orders today regarding prepara- tions for the use of federal troops.
 Press reports from Dallas, however quoting Governor Neff as stating that state troops would not be ordered to protect the roads property in Texas at this time appeared to increase the chances that President Harding would direct the use of federal troops.

FLAPPER HAS NO SOUL,
 so ARTIST ASSERTS

ATLANTIC CITY, June 19.-"The modern girl has no heart, no soul, no admit it." says Frank x Leyendecker, one of the best-known artists and il- illustrators in the country
 "You do not dare to talk to the flap per of classics nor of other serious things" he continued, flor she simply will make no attempt to absorb them. She is idle, frivolous and needless of tomorrow. However, will admit that she is charming and often irresistible
 "She looks so young but knows so much-much that she could do well not to know She assumes no responsi- bility. She seeks nothing but amuse- ment. When boy reaches the flap per- age he usually has some obliga- ton to fulfill. He gets a job, or else he is branded as a loafer. The girl, however, spends her time reading frothy literature and smoking.
 ':.In my opinion the only hope of the nation rests upon the working girl. She has more originality and in- dividuality than the flapper, who looks to me as if she were made from a die. Each working girl has her par ticular style in clothes and coiffure.
 "But the flapper! How can you tell one from another? The only dan ger with the working girl is that she is apt to become so self-reliant that she will scorn help of mere man. But that danger is not so probable that any flapper should be afraid to reform and become a working girl"
