BOURGES, France, August 26.-
The air of Mars is altogether too
light and too rare to support such
animal life as exists on earth. Rev.
Thomas Moreux, director Of the
Bourges Observatory, declared today
reporting on observations of the
planet he had made on Saturday
through his telescope of 325 diameters.
Conditions for his observation
were fairly good, he said, and his
view was better than any attained
during the recent observations by
British astronomers 1t also was ap-
parently more satisfactory than the
reported observations of other French
astronomer who had been watching
the planet during the period of its
relative nearneSS to the earth.
The clergyman asserted that his
vision of Mars on Saturday had been
marvellous" but added that climatic
conditions on the planet produced a
haze, which had obscured many well
known Typographical features, al
though in general permitting a good
sight of the planets outline as it had
already been reported by previous
observers.

Air on Mars Too Light and Rare
To Support Life, Sauant Declares

What the eye can affirm as a
result of the observations" the as
tronomer continued, lis that the
layer of air surrounding the planet
is highly rarified and that it could
not support highly organized animal
life such as dogs or even mice.
IF there are animals there they
must be very low state of life. The
vegetation there must resemble ou.
moss and 1ichen."
The clergyman said the weather
on Mars, where Spring now is at its
height, is as bad as that on earth
and that the Martians, if they exist,
will have the same cold and nasty
Summer which the inhabitants of the
earth have endured this year.
He added that he wanted to cor
rect some erroneous comments on
the probable temperature there fol
atmospheric conditions, declaring
although the thermometer on Mars
might register about degrees above
zero, Fahrenheit, in the shade. yet
fully exposed to the sun, it probably
would show something like 65 or "a
degrees above zero and would be
favorable to a vegetation which
drew its moisture only from the
atmosphere"

Warrington, ID. C.

Q. My son who served during the
war was killed about a year ago. l
was not dependent at the time of his
death, but I am now. The oath of
dependency is confusing and I want to
know whether I should make it, in
view of the fact that 1 was not de-
pendent at the time of his death?-
Mrs. S.
A. Make the oath of dependency
and submit your application. The
law says you must have been de-
pendent at the time of your sons
death to be entitled to the benefits.
If it is construed literally you will
receive the benefits. If it is not
possible for the officials to put lib
eral construction upon that section of
the act providing payments to the de-
pendents of the deceased veterans
your application for the benefits will
of course be denied.
Q. 1 served with the Army in New
York for the whole period of the
war. l received commutation of heat,
light and quarters. The sum 1 re-
ceived was not sufficient to pay my
expenses. Is it true that for the
service which 1 rendered 1 will not be
entitled to, adjusted compensation? :?
My rank was as captain. Should
A. 1t has not been definitely de-
termined by the War Department
whether or not you will be entitled
to any benefits for the service which
you rendered. 1t Is probable that
rulings to be made will allow you the
benefits, so you will make no mistake
by promptly filing an application.
There is a distinction between service
at or with the War Department and
service with the Army. The word
ing of the act, it is believed, is de-
to the War Department from receiv-
ing the benefits. 1t is not aimed at
that officer who was detailed to actual
work with the Army.
Q. was in the Navy when the
World War began and l am still in.
Am 1 entitled to adjusted compensa-
ton for the war period which / serv-
ed in addition to the pay l received
as member of the Navy?-G. w. P.
A. You are entitled to adjusted
compensation and should file an ap-
plication for the benefits which are
due you in addition to the pay you
receive from the Navy.
H. B.-You are entitled to adjusted
compensation and should file an ap-
plication for the benefits.
Mrs. E. E-The State of Maryland

to tho Ohio State bonus. File an ap-
plication for it If you enlisted in that

CHICAGO, August 26.-Eforts to
combat the mosquitoes swarming
throughout the western Great Lakes
region were under way today. as the
winged pests invaded offices and
homes, drove golfers from courses,
forced closing of suburban camps and
resorts and brought discomfort to nu-
merous outdoor functions.
The insects forced a high school

training camp at Fon du Lac, Wis,
the players being compelled to don
their heaviest togs for protection
Farmers in the vicinity of Brainerd
Mimi, were reported driven indoors

screening about their faces.
Only a few anophelene or malaria
carrying mosquitoes are among the
millions in the vicinity of Chicago.
according to DR.. w. c. Alice, associate
professor of zoology at the University
of Chicago. The Culex. or common
mosquito, he said, carries malaria
germs which affect birds, and should
its tribe increase there would be fewer
birds, Dr. Alice said.

LOS ANGELES. August 26.-The
solace of having once more seen his
aged mother. reported near death
from heart disease, and the salts
faction of having won at least a pre-
liminary skirmish in his legal battle
to escape the Gallows, made Jail life

former pugilist charged with the
murder of Mrs. Theresa Mors here
August IL.
Mccoy is also charged with robbery
and assault with intent to commit
murder as result of an attempted
robbery and shooting affray after
Mrs. Mors met death.
A court order issued yesterday by
Superior Judge Charles S. Grail, be-
fore whom Mccoy will be tried, en-
abled the alleged slayer to go under
guard last night to the home where
his mother, Mrs. Mary E. Selby, lay
in the shadow of death.

knelt at the bedside of the stricke en-
woman and buried his face in the
coverlet. When he rose to leave it
was his mothers physician, fearful
OF her condition, who hastened the
departure, not the sheriffs man who
was to take him back to jail.
Earlier yesterday Mccoy appeared
before Judge Grail to plead on the
murder, robbery and assault charges,
but when the prosecution introduced

witness to the grand jury Indictment

ments, with the plea, were POSTPONED
