Wind Caused by the Sun

When any part of the earth becomes
heated by the suns rays the air be-
comes thinner and rises. As It goes
up q current Of cooler air takes its
place. thus causing the disturbance
called wind. Likewise, damp air
which is lighter than dry air OF the
same degree of heat-will also rise
and cause disturbance above and
below. It Is for this reason that there
is usually a breeze from the sea by
day and from the land by night. the
land being heated faster than the
water and the fresh air from the sea
coming In to take its place. At night
the process is reversed. The land
cools faster than the water and the
wind goes out to sea.

 For the fine work and results of thls conference we are especially in debted to many people who have car ried large responsibilities so satis- factorily. Particular mention in this connection is due the Hon. Will c. Wood, state superintendent of public instruction for California, and to MT. Arthur Chamberlain, executive secre- tary of the California Teachers as- sociation, and secretary of the Ma tional Education association Hitter acy commission for arranging the de- tails of the program. Generous com mendation is also due the governor of each state which has been repre- sented in this conference for, with out such cooperation and encourage ,ment as each has given, this confer ence could not possibly have been held nor could any of the persons who have contributed so much here have been present.
 Largest credit and most sincere praise are due M IS. Cora Wilson Stewart, president of the Kentucky illiteracy commission and chairman of the illiteracy conmi issien of the National Education association, who has presided so ably throughout our sessions. Most of all we are indebt- ed to her for the initial de1monstra- ,tion many years ago in Kentucky of the great menace of illiteracy and of the large results in improved citi- ,zenship which follow from it's elimi- nation. We wish to express our deep appreciation to her for bringing to pass the conference which is just concluding and for the successful and inspiring way in which she has di. rected the work of the conference to a successful conclusion.
 We wish to express our apprecia- tion to the management of the Fair mont hotel for their courteous care and hospitality in ministering to eur comfort and convenience and to com mend the fine attitude of the public press of this city for the excellent help they have afforded in giving publicity to this conference through out it's inception and sessions and to ask their further help as we'll as the help of the press throughout the Uni ted States in bringing these resolu- tions and the other results which should follow from this conference to the attention of the whole public.
