REMARKABLE STORY ON THE THOUSANDS OF STARS
l, (Continued from page }

thdre is no end of space? =.
 'EWhen we try to comprehend the atmcst limits where ends the reach of human wisdom in discovering suns which are only visible on the photographic plate, the inevitable question arises, "What is Beyond?" --Does Creation end with mans linl- itations, and is all blank beyond his powers of penetration into the end less regions of space? No! A thou sand times No! \
 "Unquestionably, beyond mans utmost endeavors to pierce the veil of impenetrable distance, there are other and uncountable "Universes," of equal or surpassing grandeur, . blazing with countless suns and their circling worlds, for the support and enjoyment of life in infinite forms ] Look to the right: there is no limit 1! Look to the left: there is no end 1! Above, below, there is boundless space; and the human heart, striving to comprehend Infnity, can only gasp at the overwhelming fact there is No End to the Universe of God! --"All of the stars, near and far, are at such enormous distances, that no telescope ever enlarges them in the least, only showing them as brilliant points of light.
 Another thing we do not realize that outside of our little world, there is no such condition as night or day, nor any such direction as North, South, East, or West.
 "Nor is there any such thing as up and down. Church steeples which point upward, swing around an en- tire circle every "A hours.
 "And there is not in the celestial universe, any such thing as time. We count time by days and years, because we live on a little planet which turns on it's axis, and ,revolves around star. Out in endless space, there is no way of measuring time: one condition remaining forever constant-never beginning, never ending: the same yesterday, today, and forever. =
 "All space is filled with what is Cai1eu eCLSr, put III my Opln1On, It IS simply a vacuum, offering unob- structed transmission of certain waves which produce light and heat, without any resistance to the millions of suns and their attending planets, flying through it.
 "The temperature of the so called 'ether' filling the universe, is cold beyond our comprehension de- grees below zero! And black dark ness prevails throughout the uni verse. Can heaven be there?
 "The highest wisdom of mankind demonstrates that Matter, Motion and Method, comprise the three great elemental facts of the universe-a Trinity that admits of no dispute. The, existence of Matter requires no proof: and Motion is apparent from the fact that there is not a single atom of Matter in the entire uni verse that is not in voilent activity :: every star in the heavens is whirling thru space with amazing velocity.
Connecticut western news., 1922-12-07

With Matter and Motion established, the argument seems irresistible that there is, and must be, Method in their control-name it What you will God or Jehovah, Creator, Allah, Buddha, Brahma, or the Great Un- known.
 "New stars occasionally blaze out in the sky. about thirty-nine have been observed in two thousand years. 4 new star indicates that the initial act of Creation" has taken place, when great masses of Matter-dead and worn-out suns and worlds-sub- feet to the certain "Consciousness and WilP' which the greatest astro- homer of all time has associated with the Force called Gravitation, are made to crash together with the velocity of the earth in it's orbit forty-seven times faster than rifle ball-the awful concussion causing a tremendous out-burst, creating a temperature 5000 times greater than would an equal mass of burning coal, and sufficient to yaporize. the entire substances of which suns and worlds are made, into a condition as thin as a feecy cloud in :, summer sky! Then, after many years, when the flash of that first act of re-creating a solar system has had time to reach us, a bright new star is reported in the newspapers in this, and in a great many other worlds ....
 ''The mighty crash and chaos of fiery vapor is entirely noiseless, for the ether, or a vacuum, does not convey sound, and D the expanded metals and minerals, all in gaseous form, fill space of thousand bil- lion miles, whirling its glowing va DOTS as signals to the universe, to herald the birth of solar system like our own.
 "Then it becomes a Nebula, just like thousands of others visible in the heavens, and in many million years, as we measure time, by the slow, process of planetary evolution as told in the Nebular Hypothesis, there will be a central sun, with sur rounding worlds like this, each ulti- mately conditioned and adapted for the support of animal and vegetable life in countless forms, all provided through Gods fecund method of Evolution. And lastly, one variety of animal life will appear and be known in later ages as "primeval ,"-not akin to the monkey, as some men with. tmonkey-mind's assert but distinct and separate creation ultimately destined to be "born again" into a spiritual existence; will be lowered with the greatest of all physical gifts, articulate speech, and then, into a divinely selected and directed example, who may be called Adam, will be breathed an Immortal Spirit, with God-given powers and inspirations to work out it's own salvation; to wisely use the talents provided, to learn how to live and merit the benefits bestowed by the Creator.
 ~''Lord Kelvin, the ablest astron- omer of nodern times, declared his belief in an Over-ruling, Creative Power. Without it, the inevitable result would be, so far as the human mind can conceive, a final aggrega- tion of all the matter in the vast universe, in single, solitary mass, inert, useless, , and impossible of change. But astronomy teaches and proves that the creation of solar systems like our own, is continual process-from everlasting to ever lasting-where old and burned-out suns and dead worlds, are re-created and established anew in the Infinite

DENIES RAPALLO PACT
IS MILITARY MENACE
Litpinoff Discounts Warning
in Lloyd George Speech.

Special Cable to THE New yaRK HERALD.
Copyright, isas, bv The New yoRK HEsALp,
New York Herald Bureau.
Berlin, May s8.
Soviet circles here are displeased over
the statement made by Premier Lloyd
George in his recent speech In Parlia-
ment that the Rapallo treaty would not
help much toward Russian reconstruc-
tien. but contains germ of military
danger. Maxim Litvinoff, In discussing
Mr.. Lloyd Georges speech, said: Ger
fnany's part in the reconstruction is not
so limited as Premier Lloyd George
seeks to make it appear. This is proved
by the experience of the last two years,
during which German expectations to
Russia exceeded those TO other lands.
It is Significant that Germany. which is
in need of money is sending these goods
to Russia, which needs credit to pur-
chase wares more than money.
"The Rapallo treaty did not change
the outcome of the Genoa conference.
This alliance serves In a model way to
settle the conflicts which we have In
herited from the war and to establish
thereby the basis for friendly trade re-
lations."
