QUIPS AND QUIDDITIES

A reader asks us if we can explain the diff
ference between legal language and that used
by the man in the street The difference is
best illustrated in this way:
If man were to give another an apple he
would simply say:
"Have an applet"
But if the transaction were done in legal
form the lawyer would draw up a deed of
gift in the following form:
II hereby give and convey to you, all and
singular, my estate and interest, right, title,
claim, and advantages of and in said apple, to-
gether with all its skin, juice, meat, and pips
and all rights and advantages therein, with
full power to bite, MUNICH, cut and otherwise
to eat the same or give the same away with
or without the skin, juice, meat and pips, any
thing hereinbefore or hereinafter or in any
other means of whatever nature or kind what
soever to the contrary in anywise notwith-
standing"
And another lawyer would come along and

QUIZ

y. How do you account for straws being
forced through telegraph poles during cy-
clones? NJ D.
A. The energy with which a body strikes
an object determines the piercing effect and
damaging effect of the body Energy ia
measured by the product of the mass of the
body and the square of the velocity. Thus a
very small body moving with high velocity
can possess just as much kinetic energy as
a large body moving slowly. The straw Ia
hurled through the air at an enormous
loclty and expends it's energy in going
through the wood. This happens so quickly
that the inertia of the straw keeps 1t from
crumpling up before piercing,
Q. Is apartment house kept as dry as
the air of New Mexico? D. r. l..
A. The air of the majority of apartments
in winter is considerable great deal drier
than the climate of Colorado or New Mexico.
One authority says that In some heated
houses in winter the atmosphere Is drier
than that of the Sahara desert.
Q. Do humming birds live on the nectar
of flowers? L. L..
A. This substance does form an important
part of their food, but they also eat insects
and spiders.
Q. How many air lines has France? A. L. /.
A. There are IA French lines operating to
Africa London, Brussels Amsterdam, Tunis,
Constantinople, Genoa and other points Last
year they carried 1887 passengers, 1885,
ZIG pounds of parcels and 80, 900 pounds sH
mail travelling a total of 2146,2 34 miles.
O. When were horseshoes first used?
G. w. r.
Q. Was Captains Courageous" written in
England or India!
A. Rudyard Kipling wrote it in little
wooden house on the Balestier estate at Brat
tleboro, Vermont.
@. Please put the Einstein Theory in sim
pie words. M A. G.
A. The Einstein Theory embodies the idea
of the relatively of all motion. The hypoth-
esis in the main is that it is impossible by
physical experiment to measure the absolute
motion of a body through space; that there
is nothing out in space in the nature of a
fixed set of co-ordinates, with regard to
such thing as absolute motion Of one body
with respect to another.

TO APPRECIATE ART
BY H. Arlington Bruce

The first step to growth in ability to ap-
preciate' art is cultivation of sincere desire
to grow in such ability. Unless this desire
is present not merely will the study of art
principles produce scanty results but it will
soon be dropped as .wearisome.
Whereas. when desire is present there will
be both efficient study and increased ease in
study if only because the wish to appreciate
has of itself the effect Of stimulating ones
sense Of the artistic and ones perception of
the truly beautiful.
Almost unconsciously one will be led to
visit art galleries frequently, and what is
fully as important to make little trips TO
parks, to country places, to the seashore,
where the beautiful is most In evidence
through the ministrations of nature. Thus
the learning attitude will be strengthened,
and the way made smoother for the gaining
of technical knowledge.
To gain such knowledge diligent reading
of textbooks in appreciation is, of course,
indispensable. These will be found in goodly
number in any public 1ibrary-books written
by art critics, with illustrations to point the
principles set forth, with specific refer
ence to masterpieces readily available In in
expensive prints.
And equally, of course, there must be
study Of pictures in the light of the infor-
nation given in the textbooks. If this
expert instructors much the better. But
even when such instructors cannot be had,
astonishing progress Is possible to the eager
minded.
Progress. too, will be facilitated If, in ad-
dition to studying textbooks in appreciation,
some time is given to study of the history
of art and the biogra plies of great artists.
For that matter, study of the lives of artists
is valuable If only for the directive impulse
it gives to a better ordering of ones own
life.
AS has been justly sa1d
perhaps no kind of biography is so warm
with genuine human feeling, so replete with
noble sacrifice for high aims, so courageous
in struggle, as the biography of the great
artists.
"For the quickening of the perceptions
and IMAGINATION, for the particular training
lives of such men as Leonardo da Vinc1 and
MicheIangelo are second only to noble
poetry"
All of which, to be sure, means a deal of
reading and a deal Of thinking But it does
not mean as some may assume, reading and
thinking of art to the exclusion of other in
terests, and perhaps to interference with
ones workday activities
All the reading and thinking needful may
be done in leisure hours-hours, alas! now
utilized by many for activities Of a worse
than useless sort, activities that exhaust that
dissipate energy, that unfit for work, that,
still worse make for moral decrepitude.
1t needs no argument to convince that
these energy MASTERS would be better off, and
infinitely happier were they to turn to le1s-
ure pursuits of higher order, among which
the study of aesthetic values holds conspic-
uous place.
If they could but be persuaded to do SOL!
That is a problem to which the best thinkers
of our civilization might well give their best
efforts.

VIZ ASHINGTON, May 17-For the first
Wv time in five years Americans will
have a chance to see the sun totally
extinguished in their own country, when on
September 10, the moon will blot out the
light of the sun.
The phenomenon in its partial phase will
be visible throughout the United States, but
In order to observe the total disappearance
of the sun in full day, observers must go to
southernmost California, lower California or
the adjacent parts of Mexico.
Again the Einstein theory of RELATIVELY is to
be tested although it will not be Of paramount
interest as it was at the Australian eclipse of
last year. The nearly perfect agreement be-
tween the values predicted by the Einstein
theory and the measurements of star images
on Photographic plates taken last fall by the
Lick observatory expedition, coupled with the
British tests of 1919 are very convincing yet
observers will be in the field this fall equipped
to duplicate and check these tests.
The axis of the moons shadowcone will
strike the earth at sunrise, September 10, near
Kamchatka, in Asia. From there the path Of
total eclipse, about SO miles wide, will sweep
across uninhabited tracts of the Pacific Ocean
until 1t touches the large group Of islands off
the coast of California, south of Santa Bar
bara and west of San Diego 1t will reach this
point at about l p. m. local time. Duration
of totality here will be three minutes and
thirty-siX seconds on the central line which
passes midway between Santa Rosa and San
Nicolas islands and directly over San Glenn
ente island. From this point the path of to-
tai eclipse passes to the peninsula of Lower
California. The small Mexican town of En-
senada lies within five miles of the central
line and can be reached by auto stage from
San Diego. A number of observers will doubt
less locate in this vicinity as weather and OBJ
serving conditions are expected to be very
favorable in Lower California. There will be
excellent facilities for observers the islands
off the coast of California but the weather
reports indicate that the prospects of fair

IMPORT of the austrian Loan

- HE prospect OF success for an interna-
tional loan, in which America will
bear substantial part, to rehabili-
tate war-broken Austria, Is one of the Pc
culiarly cheering omens of the day. Coop
Grating through commission Of the League
Britain, France, Holland, Denmark, Sweden,
Italy, Spain and Belgium have undertaken
to provide credit to the amount of one hun
dred and thirty million dollars for Austria's
reconstruction. OF this sum, twenty-five mil
lion dollars will be underwritten by leading
American bankers, who see how important
1t is to their own country as well as to the
world at large that Central Europe be saved
from economic chaos. Their part of the en-
Spouse of the nations investors; but 1t is as
sumed that when the terms and guarantees
of the proposed loan are presented, there will
be no difficulty in selling the bonds.
In this unity of action of the worlds bank
ers to restore Austria to national functionfng
and security may be seen the working of that
liberal and constructive spirit on which the
economic and hence, largely, the political sal
walton of all Europe depends: Both the gov
eminent and the people of the bankrupt coun-
try have proved deserving of aid. They have
accepted in good faith the verdict from the
World war. Moreover, they have shown will
lingness to economic to the utmost, alike in
public and in personal affairs They have
welcomed supervision of their fiscal system
by directors appointed by the. League OF Ma
lions. They stand ready to give fully ade-
quate pledges for the repayment of an inter
national loan
1t well may be that when Germany mani
tests like spirit, international aid for her
also will be forthcoming. In that event the
reparations issue, with it's far-reaching eff
fects upon the business of both hemispheres
could be disposed of peaceably and to the ul-
innate satisfaction of all interests. The Aus
trian loan thus becomes precursor of great
possibilities. That these will materialize is
by no means yet certain. But that they exist
even as possibilities is OF much significance
and cheer.

weather are less favorable for the islands
than for Lower California. The central line
OF eclipse crosses the mainland of Mexico to
Yucatan. 1t passes Midway between Hermo-
sillO and Guaymas, in Sonora, and runs fifteen
miles southwest of Cuencame in Durango and
twenty miles southwest of Tampico Payo
Ob1spo on the east coast of Yucatan lies close
to the central line, but the eclipse occurs here
late in the afternoon and the duration is re-
duced to about two minutes and twenty-five
seconds After leaving Yucatan the shadow
path passes to the south of the West Indies
and leaves the earth at sunset to the south
east of Porto Rico. The chances of fair
weather at eclipse time in Mexico are not
very great, except in the vicinity of Hermosil-
10 and Cuencame as the rainy season comes
during the summer months and is not due to
end before the last of September.
The partial phase of the eclipse will be Wis
ible over all of North America. At the Mt
Wilson Observatory the greatest observation
will be 98.5 per cent and though astronomers
will be sent from this observatory to the CEN
trail line it is expected that it will be posi-
BILE to obtain some valuable observations on
Mt Wilson with the powerful equipment there
available. Expeditions will be sent to the
central line from most of the large observa-
tories in the United States and in addition to
testing the Einstein theory once more many
observations will be made Of the structure of
the solar corona and of the position of i'm
portant lines in the clash spectrum and the
coronal spectrum.
The amateur astronomer will also have his
chance to contribute something of value to
the sun of scientific knowledge by making
drawings of the corona observing shadow
bands and in various other ways.
DR.. A. e. Douglass. Of the Steward Observ-
atory of the University of Arizona, will lead
expedition into Mexico, and amateurs are
also planning an expedition into the Sonora
desert by automobiles to the central line,
distance of $50 miles from Douglas, Arizona.

INFIDELITY TO EVOLUTION
By DR.. Frank Crane

Infdelfty toward evolution is rather a Sc
rious matter.
1t is not particularly serious If one does
not believe the tenets of this creed or that,
or the teachings of this church or not, be-
cause there are other creeds and other
churches to which one may turn If he likes.
But 1nfdelity toward evolution is another
matter. For evolution is clear, plain, and
established law. Disbelief in it is like dis
belief In gravitation, or electricity, or any
established chemical formula which has
been working for years.
We know that evolution is a fact the same
way we know that any other law of nature
is fact. Because 1t works.
We believe in evolution for the same rea-
son that we believe in God; that is, because
belief results In confusion and error.
Evolution is not something that has mere
ly to do with mans descending from the
monkeys. 1t is not a matter solely Of the
past. 1t is law that is working right now,
and a law that contains the only possible
promise for the future
1t means that the present is a growth
from the past, and the future will be a
growth from the present.
1t also means that anybody that expects
to get anything permanent in the way of re-
suits from life must attend to growing that
thing.
Henry Fairfield Osborn, president of the
American Museum of Natural History re-
Gently said:
Evolution takes It's place with the gravi-
tation law of Newton 1t should be taught
in our schools simply as nature speaks to
us about it, and entirely separated from the
opinions, materialistic or theistic, which
have clustered about 1t. This simple, direct
teaching of Nature is full of moral and spir-
ituaI force, if we keep the element of human
opinion out of it. The moral principle in
herent in evolution is that nothing can be
gained in this world without an effort; the
ethical principle inherent in evolution is
that the best only has the right to survive;
