Car Driving in Casper.

ins. In the four weeks 1 have lived
here I have had three h~air-raising
experiences which nearly resulted in

Strange Light in Sky.

Editor Tribune: What are the NOV.
ing lights in the sky some evenings,
noticed between 6 and 7.15 p. M. on
October 1913? Since that date / have
been motoring east and haven't no
tlced them.
Thought II might have been an ex.
perimentai balloon with bright lights,
sent up from some point northwest
travelling south to southeast. where 1t
passed from my sight at 6:so D. N.
behind hills.
Sunday. October Is. a similar light
was noticed northeast which ravsed
south to southeast at same speed and
passed from sight behind trees and
hills at 1:15. Do airplanes carry
lights? SYLVIA BARRIER
Some types of airpianes have search.
lights. but as to the lights to which
you refer lwe have no Knowledge, not
having observed them.
The only theory we can advance
during these active campaign times is
that It is the iurid projection of some
Democratic politician in -misrepresen.
ton OF the character and reputation OF
his Republican opponent for office
Until we ourselves have more light
on h subject, that is the pest we can
do to enlighten you.

Political Adpeytisine.

ADVERTISING of a political nature is proper
AMI legitimate publicity. That is truthful
leading kind, made so deliberately, is of no profit
TO the candidate or party using il and more often
reacts against the party than 1t imposes upon the
reading public.
Take some OF the matter appearing in the Dem
ocrauc veeklies of late in the interest of Demo,
cratic candidates, appealing to class prejudice. The
purpose designedly 10 make it appear to the poor
man that Senator Kendrick voted for the excess
profits tax in the revenue bill and Mondell against
H. mat the formers vote was IL the interest of
the poor man, and the latters vote in the interest
of the rich man.
To convey any such impression the writer's OF
TINS advertising deliberately falsified the record in
the case.
Senator Kendrick did not vote for the excess
profits tax at all: The bill came TO final vote No
vember q 1921. He is recorded as not voting, as
can be readily learned by reference to the Con.
gressional Record, Volume 81, Page 1924, first ses-
sion OF the sixty.seventh congress.
The record also disclosas the fact that Mr..
Kendrick is recorded as not voting eleven times
out of twelve that same day.
On the one and only occasion upon which he
ala vote that day il was for an amendment to
exempt certain Missouri securities from taxation.
The excess profits tax was purely a war meas
ure, and was repealed along with such other bur
dens as the transportation tax and other nui-
and to carry into effect the decla ations
of the Republican platform, which policies re.
ceived at the previous election some 10000 plur.
alfty votes of the American people.
The most bewildering proposition in this Dem
ocratic advertising is that IL Senator Kendrick
deems the excess profits tax so vital now why did
he not vote for it then. Is it possible that he
was following n habit he seems TO have contracted
was paired. Or could il be that the coal land rent,
ais of the senator and Mr.. Irvine doomed large
as a taxable quantity?
AS has been said there can be no objection TO
advertising. But all advertising TO be
effective must have n fair percentage of the Gle.
ment of truth therein contained.

Departing Summer.

Summer led me through the woods.
Where birds and flowers play:
And down. far down a ieafy path \
Was Autumn on her way.
And as she came she waved her wand
Among the trees and flowers;
The world took on a brighter hue
Like sunshine after showers.
The leaves she painted red and hrowa.
The fields all yellow gold.
Asters raised their purple heads
In gorgeous wealth untold.
The sunlight was a mellow sheen,
y clear. clear blue the sky.
The air was filled with magic sound,
She smiled and passed us by.
We looked and all around US
Her autumn beauty lay.
Summer kissed Nher hand TO me
And quickly sped away.

Counting Ancestors.

Explanation OF the apparent mathe-
NAUTICAL failacy OF a person having
some trillions OF ancestors fifty gen
erations back. Perhaps the following
VIII aid in Strengthening The puzzle:
Let us assume that thirty families.
each consisting Of a father and a
mother and their children. coming
from separate villages and belonging
to q strict and clannish religious sect.
emlgrated TO a ren<ot and unsettled
land. and there established a commu-
nifty. discouraging all Intercourse with
the outer world.
Suppose that an average OF five chill
dren from each family married and
reared families OF their own. II the
same ratio OF children were born to
these ~secenty-five couples, and the
same average of five children to a
family married. there would be 1873
marriages and $40 children of the
fourth generation. Each child of the
fourth generation would have eight
grandparents, and the $40 collectively
would have 1880 grandparents, or
about 125 times moro ancestors than
the original settlers.
II h community kept itself clear
from outside intercourse and all mar
riages were confined to the original
strains. a child of the tenth generation
would have automatically 2.04s an
c~estors. nearly thirty.five times the
original sixty.
From the foregoing II is apparent
that the original thirty couples would
be the founders OF seventy descending
strains each In the tenth generation.
The child Of this generation is entitled
automatically to his 2,o4s ancestors,
but by reason of the complicated In
termingiins OF the lines of descent
through marriage the original sixty
parents became eventually the first
ancestors of every being in the en-.
tire community.
What is true of this hypothetical
community is true of the world at
large. If n were to go into the
ancestry Of the people OF any nation
it would be necessary to go hack only
a few generations to uncover a dupli-
cation of ancestral lines tina would
soon reconcile the mathematical fig
ures with the facts.-A. A. Dial Molin.

Measuring the Universe.

The totally OF cosmic space Is in
finite to our finite mind. Other
minds. possibly existent in other soiar

to measure our tiny world with a foot
rule, ann measure illimitable space
even with terrestrial dimensions. And
at this present time It seems most
probable hat cosmic space is bound
less. although It is so probable that
the number of suns and satellites in
cosmic space r. limited.
We are able 10 measure vaguely a
short distance into the terrible abyss
Of illimitable a or course this is
done with the assistance of light rays.
We have discovered about how swift
ly light rays travel. 1s6.sso miles a
second. approximately 6 trilllon miles
a year. Accordingly.i II we also dis
cover that 1t takes 4ss seconds for
light to pass from our sun to the
earth. the distance OF our u approx
mates 4ss times Iss.3so. or about
90 million miles.
The approximate distance to Nep-
tune. the furthest known planet, is
400, 900. 900 miles. The approximate
distance to Alpha Centauri. the near
est known sun OF night, is 40 light
years, or 20 trillion miles. The dis

Back Him Up.

The Eock Springs Miner Is urging
the people to back up Mr.. Hays pro
gram Of reducing state expenses. BY
sending good and competent members
to the Legislature. The Miner says;
IN August. practically everyone in
sweetwater county was working for
the nomination OF John w. Hay. for
governor. and the vote OF the people
OF this county was a large factor In
his nomination.
His election as governor on a plat
form OF r~etrenchment in expenses and
a reduction OF taxes is now conceded
by everyone In touch with the situ1-
ton. regardless OF politics.
Now the next step before the voters
OF sweetwater county is to give hir
\ set of county officials and a iegis-
latsve delegation In harmony with, his
plan.
I'VE must send men TO Cheyenne rs
members OF the next legislature on
work actively to carry out his iegis.
iative program. Mr.. Hay has re-
peatediy stated hat he must have the
co operation OF the next legislature.
Sweetwatsr county must also have
officials who will endeavor TO limit ex.
penscs. and who Will try to get 100
cents worth of value out OF every dol
lar expended. At the present time
Sweetwater county suffers from the
extravagance of some Of It's officials
who have held office during the past
few years. This is a well known fact.
II Is not enough TO elect a governor
on a platform of retrenchment. We
must back him up clear down the line,
The men nominated ON the Republican
county n legislative tickets are
pledged TO support h governor in his
work OF reducing taxation. Give them
your vote on election day and they
will make good their pledges.

Rubber Needs Exercise.

Saving a thing for hard times does.
not always mean that you will have
the article saved when hard times
come. For instance when Dingbatt
bought his automobile he bought two
extra tires and decided 10 keep one
Immaculate until It was needed. He
put II away IL the garage and did
not bother It 1,r about fifteen months.
Then, as tho oiSer tires were pretty
we'll worn. lie got out The unused tire
and put It on.
After driving a few hunCred miles
he wen. back 10 the automobile man
he found It was nearly worn out and
made a kick.
Never used IT urM a week ago?"
demanded the dealer in surprise.
That accounts for it."
But I bought the other tires at
the same time and they are in bet.
ter shape now than the one that has
not been used
Yes, Ind that sire would have
been in better shape If it had been
used. You perhaps know some old
style nan VIII carries a rubber
band around his pocketbools. Yes?
Well that rubber band Will last for
years when it is in use anc Is pulled
and stretched. Leave II in a desk
drawer a few months and it Is brittle.
Rubber needs exercise. Tires should
be changed every few weeks and
used in rotation"
