PLANETS HEAT
GUAGED BY
SCIENCE
Mars Comfortable During Day
at Equator, But Gets
Cold at Night.

BOSTON. Dec. 2s-The palm
Beach" Of Mars is at the equator
where Martians enjoy balmy tenn.
peratures Of from 6S to II during
the day. At night they pile on
the blankets. for II gets much
colder.
Jupiter 10 a cold planet. on the
other hand, where temperatures
hover around 130 below zero.
Saturn is some So degrees warmer
than Jupiter.
Venus is much warmer than the
earth.
These temperatures have been
established at the Lowell observa.
tory in Arizona by instruments 90
delicate that they would detect the
heat of a tallow candle at the
distance of many miles.
The astonishing results obtained
by these instruments were de.
scribed today by Prof. Donald N.
Menzel, of Princeton University
at a meeting of the American AS.
sociation for the Advancement of
Science, in Cambridge.
The chief instrument is a therm.
couple, which is essentially two
subtances, both electrical conduc.
tors. Joined together and attached
to a highly sensitive device for
measuring electrical current A
very slight increase in temperature
is enough to set up an electrical
current at the point Of contact
between the substances, which is
measured and compared with other
data.
The heat from the planet is
focused on the instrument by means
Of telescope, as heat rays are
magnified In the same way as
light waves.
An enormous number Of cor.
rections must he made in the
figures at first obtained and com.
putation of astonishing intricacy
must be calculated.
The results show that the two
planets. Jupiter and Saturn, have
some internal source Of energy OF
their own. If they were warmed
only by the heat OF the sun, they
would be 256 below and 26O below
respectively.

For Bus Line.

BRENTWOOD. Md. Dec. 3o.-The
own council will shortly purchase a
tractor for use on the town roads Of
Brentwood. It was learned yesterday
through Councilman j. II. Baker
smith, of the Third ward. When
the tractor Is received work will be
started at once.
Citizens living alo lg the line from
Washington to Laurel are aroused
over the treatment that they are re-
ceiving at the hands Of the City and
Suburban Railway Company. Citi-
zens who use the trolley car say that
the company compels them to use
cars in the morning that have no
heat. They say they would welcome
a bus line to relieve the congestion
on the street cars.
r. r. Vass and Horace Spence, Of
ficials of the United States Veterans
Bureau, in discussing the situation
today, said: 1T must be admitted
that the running time on the line ID
very good. In fact. 1t is much better
In the morning and evening flush
periods than in the city proper. But
the fact remains that the company
insists on operating cold cars in the
morning. The other car companies
run heated cars, but the company
running into Maryland does not seem
to care whether the patrons are
warm or not"
II is expected that the citizens will
make a concerted appeal to the Of.
ficials OF the Washington Railway
and Electric Company. which op-
crates the City and Suburban line.
to see II they cannot have heat In
the cars. They will also protest
against the company continuing to
use old cars that should be con.
demned.
