the Newton theory regarding the
forces that keep the earth in its
orbit. The Quandary Is the result
of positive demonstrations with
what Mr.. Smith has termed the
hitherto undiscovered black rays"
Of the sun.
Science has held that the sun
exerts a pulling power on the earth
and that this, with centrifugal
force, has kept terra firna in its
place. Smith set up a delicately
constructed weighingo instrument
with dial and pointer. The
pointer indicated the full rays of
the sun seemed to exert a pushing
instead of pulling effect.
Smith called in Doctor Henry
Erikson, bead of the physics da.

hardly believe their eyes az thew
