As Mars Nears Earth,
 Science Plans Tests
Planet To Approach Nearer Than In 100 Years
 This Month Communication To Be Tried

ther advanced mentally than the in habitants of the earth, astronomers say, Mars is believed to be millions of years older than the earth, and thus evolution has had more time to develop the minds and brains of the Martian people.
 Canals Behind Discovered
 Much of the argument about whether Mars is inhabited revolves about the differences of opinion in regard to at. mospheric conditions on Mars, it is said What is believed to be canals have been discovered on the surface of the planet by observations, and an atmospheric haze long has been noticeable, it is said Seasonal shrinkage of the polar caps also has been noticed, with consequent quickening of the canals, it is said.
 Mars has diameter of about 4,00O miles, it is said, and the Martian day is about the same length as that of the earth. The Martian year, however, has about $50 days, in comparison with the earth year of 365 days.
 Plans have been made in many quar- ters, it is said, to attempt to communi- cate with the Martians by means of powerful radio sets, and by reflected sun ray signals.
 Mars now is visible about midnight when the atmosphere is clear, rushing across the sky. The Martial planet now is much larger than Venus, the near est of the heavenly bodies to the earth

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. D. Mars during this month will approach the earth more closely than it has at any time during the past 10 years, according to local astronomers.
 Instead of the usual 60,000,0 900 miles which separates the earth from this much talked of planet, only 34,OOO,OOO miles intervene between the two dur ing this period, known as the perihelion opposition.s This condition exists from every 15 to IS years, but this time, Mars is approaching the earth more than it has during the past.
 The last period of the perihelion op- position was in 1919. and the red planet will be 100000 closer to the earth this year than it was then, astronomers say.
 Subject Of Controversy
 Mars long has been the subject of an astronomical controversy. Some re- nowned and studied astronomers claim that Mars is inhabited, just as is the earth, and others scoff at the theory, yet all admit that they are not sure that their theories are correct.
 Efforts will be made this month. with the aid of better equipment, such as telescopes and spectroscopes, to learn more of this mystery planet of the skies
 If Mars is inhabited, as claimed in some quarters, there is ground for the assumption that the Martians are far

HIGHWAY TALKED
 AT GREENVILLE
J. E. Crump Urges Coop eration Of Butler
 County People

GREENvILLE, Ala. Aug. g. Especial. )--J. E. Crump, representa- tive of the new Chicago Florida high way, is in Greenville soliciting the CO., operation of the local people in the work of establishing and advertising the highway.
 The new highway leads out from Chicago directly south to Nashville to Birmingham, Montgomery, Greenville, Evergreen, Bfewton, Pensalocla and St. Petersburg.
 Chicago, St. Petersburg and Pensa- cola interests are fostering the asso- citation, which is to log, mark and ad- vertise the highway. Communities through which the highway passes are asked for financial and moral support of the project, and this is the purpose of MT. Crdmp's visit to Greenville. His work is meeting with the hearty ap- proval of Greenville people:
 It is claimed that approximately 100000 automobiles, with an average passenger list of three people each, went into Florida last year. Of this number, 92.S per cent went through Georgia, Jacksonville and Lake City.
 According to estimates furnished, it will cost $1O0,000 to put the project over, and of this amount $50, ,000 has already been pledged. The remainder is asked from the people along the highway, who will be greatly benefited in many ways by having that number of people pass cross country. Promo ters of the project will conduct motor cades from two to four times month over the highway. according to the plans.
 R. S. Mitchell, Butler county agent, is very optimistic over the Butler county crop conditions. It is very fortunate and happy condition to have fine prospects for good yield of cot ton and also for food and feed crops at the same time," said Mr. Mitchell, in an interview here today. Mir. Mitchell added that the present prospects for cotton are the best that the Butler farmers have experienced for the past ten years. If nothing unforeseen hap pens, Butler county farmers will gather this year the first top crop that it has been their good fortune to make since the invasion of the boil weevil ten years ago." added the county agent.
