Breakup of Raindrops
Cause OF Liphfninp?

The latest accepted theory on the
cause of lightning is based on expert
ments conducted in India by DR..
George q. Simpson. Simpsons ex-
PLANTATION starts with the fact, previ-
ously determined by laboratory ex-
periments, that when drops of water
are broken up there is separation Of
negative and positive electricity, says
the Mentor Magazine. This process
occurs on a large scale In thunder
storms, where the falling raindrops
are broken before they reach the earth
by the powerful uprushes OF air that
occur In such storms.
Positive electricity tends to remain
in the drops. while negative electricity
is carried aloft by the rising air and
eventually gives a strong negative
charge to the higher parts Of the
clouds.
The two kinds of electricity have a
tendency to reunite and neutrallze
each other. but they are kept from do
ing so by the air, which is bad con-
luctor. However. when the Opposite
.harges are strong enough they sud-
lenly break path through the air
and lightning is produced.

INSTRUCTED CRESCENT

TT is general superstition through

that If you see the new moon through
trees or shrubbery you will have trou--
BILE all that month. In some parts of
the country they have rhyme which
goes:
See the new moon through a glass
See sorrow while 1t lasts
That is, you will have bad luck for q
month. The reason Is easy enough to
see. The new moon. the crescent, is
the favorite form and symbol of the
moon-goddess; call her Isis, Artemis.
Diana or what you will. From the
moon goddess in her crescent form
emanate the beneficent influences
which mean good luck and prosperity.
Now, if when you first see the new
moon In the sky, first hail the crescent
goddess in the monthly beginning OF
her manifestation, there interposes be-
tween you and her the boughs of trees
or the branches of bushes, or the bar

in short-you are cut of from the
benefceps influences Of the goddess.
Consequently sorrow and bad luck.
This is the survival Of very ancient
idea and in fails connection 1t may be
well to quots the words Of William

Measuring Lights Speed

The speed of light was measured
first by timing the eclipses of Jupiter's
moons; light takes about 1914 minutes
to cross the earth's orbit. so when the
earth is on the side of its orbit away
from Jupiter the sclipses will seem to
occur at 1914 minutes late. Several
other methods of measuring the veloc-
ity of light have been worked out.
