FA0io 70 OTHER PLANETS7
High Scientific Authority Declares
This to Be Possibility OF
the Future.

Venus is possibly inhabited by
human beings, and communication with
planetary neighbors by wireless may
be possible, although the cost would
be immense" in the opinion of Q. G.
Abbot, assistant secretary Of the
Smithsonian institution, who discusses
various scientific phases of the 'habit-
ability of other worlds" In the annual
report of the institution.
Mr. Abbot says Venus reflects light
as if it were surrounded with clouds,
and so probably at contains plenty Of
moisture"
''Its temperature is about the same
as that of the EARTH" he added, land
all other conditions are apparently
compatible with the existence Of In
telligent life" Many popular writer's
have claimed great things for Mars
as an abode Of life. Mr.. Abbot says,
but | cannot accept this VIEW"
Commenting on suggestions that 1--WE
are already receiving wireless signals
from intelligent beings outside of the
EARTH" Mr.. Abbot declares the best in
formation seems to be that the wire
less indications referred to are merely
disturbances introduced by solar or
terrestrial causes as yet imperfectly
understood"
The moon, our nearest neighbor, is
a waterless, airless, mountainous
desert, and there is no probability of
intelligent beings there; the probability
is even less on the sun, whose intense
heat would not allow any living being
to exist there. This leaves as possible
abOdes of life in our solar system the
seven great planets, Mars, Venus,
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and
Mercury. The outer four of these
planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and
Neptune, are, as shown by their low
density, mainly in a gaseous state.
Mercury, like the moon, is an air
less, wuterless, waste, besides being
baked with terrific heat, so this planet
also is out of the running. The prob
able average temperature of Mars is
60 degrees below zero, and its climate
is drier than the Sahara desert.

The National City bank, of New
York, after Analysing the census fig
ures for 1920, declares that for the
first time in the history of our coun-
try there are more people working in
factories than on farms. Fifty years
ago there were more than twice as
many country workers as city workers.
This not only means that the farmer
has a bigger market for his product,
but that he is a greater buyer Of mani
featured goods, because an increasing
ly large proportion of the factory
hands are, making things for the COM
fort and convenience of people in the
country. If we forget the year or two
of hard times, now happily passing, we
can see that farming is not a crowded
business, and we can be sure that 1t
will be generally prosperous in the fu-
ture. The man who gets discouraged
now and leaves the farm because he
thinks farming doesn't pay" Is max.

The new chemical name for wood
alcohol is "methanol," says the Jour,
nal Of Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry. and, according to a report
of the committee on occupational dis
eases of the American Chemical soci-
ETY. progress has been made in adopt
ing its general use.
one or two facetous chemists want
ed to name wood alcohol or methyl-
alcohol Maud" and stoutly advocated
such nomenclature few years ago
Whether this was because of its
death-dealing kick, similar to that OF
Mr.. Opper's comic mule Of the same
name, was not explained.
More likely it was suggested by the
fact that grain alcohol is scientifically
known as "ethyl" alcohol. which, II
must be admitted. suggested a some

FOOD HUNT IN STARVING CITY
BLESSINGS" of eolsheviIc Rule Brought
ForcibIy to the Attention of
Newspaper Correspondent.

A Copenhagen correspondent gives
the following description Of daily life
in Penograd, where the population
passes the day in continuous fight
against death from hunger:
1t was n BOlshevist boy who taught
me how to hunt. We met in the
Sadovaja street in Petrograd.
"Eaye you had anything to eat to-
day." he asked, rs is the custom in
starving city. / told him that L
had had only an apple although | had
money.
Come along then, | know a place
where we can get some solid food to-
day" This was for me the introduce
ton TO II days course in the art
OF procuring food during a famine.
We entered first Il chOp-hOuse quite
near, where we got pea-soup and por-
ridge, though in very small portions.
My comrade then proposed that we
should return to the Neysiiy Prospect,
where meat and potatoes were to be
had in what was formerly an elegant
night restaurant. The dish, meat and
pOlulOGS IdlActl, WAS SCI NNt III olu"iS
pieces of about three inches.
"Now we have to walk long way"
my comrade said. I'VE have to cross
the river, and in the Boulevard Kron-
yeski there is place where we can
get a piece of bread" After telling
me that he was Il soldier in the Red
army, he went on: Il am here now
on fortnight's leave of absence, and
if you will meet me at 3 p. IN. today
l will show YOU secret place where
you can get a satisfying meal of
potatoes, h6rrings and bread" l had
not thought it possible to get n square
meal in Petrograd, and l became hun
cry at the thought of potatoes.
At p. IN. sharp he returned full
dress, top-bOOtS, fur cap with the red
soviet star, rifle in strap over his
shoulder, and leather belt with
cartridge pouches. He took me far
away, and finally we stopped in front
of large house. 1t was quite dark,
but down below our feet we saw a
faint light through the chink of
door.
We waited a little to make sure
that nobody saw us, and then went
down the stairs. We entered quick
ly, and found ourselves in cellar.
BY the light of lamp l saw Red sol
diers and civilians sitting at small
tables with large dishes of steaming
potatoes. The young soldier knew the
landlord of the place, and ordered
dish of potatoes and salt herring.
We afterward had some tea and rye
bread. When we paid, my friend rec
commended me to the landlord, and
told me that l could come here every
night, which l did

"Safcty First"

She was bright little girl about
three, taking her first trip west to visit
her grandfather. There was not much
that failed to interest the baby mind
and questions and answers kept her
parents pretty busy. When they ar
rived in one of the Middle West cities
it was decided to break the trip there
and stay over until the next day. The
usual rivalry was evident between
the taxi and hotel bus drivers, and
Betty was an interested and curious
spectator until two Of the men started
some friendly sparring that seemed
pretty serious to Betty. Her mother
felt a tug at her skirt and looked
down to see the cause-a load whisper
followed from Betty: "Muver-get
daddy-let's wun that man over
there hits ev-we one who duthn't go

Industrial crisis came and spoiled

The greatest week in road con-
struction this year was that ending

contractors laid as high as $500
