SCIENTIST PLANS
HUGE TELESCOPE

NEW YORK, March 9.-The Brook

dispatch saving a telescope more than
twice as large as any in existence Is
being built by Prof. George Wills
Ritchey. astronomer, in Paris
With it Prof Ritchey hopes to oh
serve stars $4,000 times more distant
than any at present visible through
the largest instruments. Through it
the moon would appear only ten miles
away and the observable universe
would be Increase ] 800, 900 times IN

The new reflector is to he 10 feet

Ii had been believed hv scientists
hat the limit of size in telescope con.
Struction had been "ea"hed because of
the differences of expa nsion and con-
traction in the parts Of a large. solid
reflect mirror. In the new parade
mirror Prof. Ritchey believes he has
overcome this difficulty by making the
mirror in cells resembling those Of a
honeycomb. These will permit circula-
tion of air TO all parts of the mirror
SO that expansion and contraction will
be uniform at all points.
If this experiment Is successful
there will be no limit to the size of
telescopes, except the mechanical diff

money necessary for their construc-

In Appreciation
(Editorial)

1t is with regret that the management of the Park
County Herald announces the discontinuance of this publ
cation. To it our best efforts have been given for the
last fourteen years, and to it we are indebted for a good
hvlIhood and it has made it possible for us to purchase the
Cody Enterprise. However, the Cody Enterprise was e-
tablished in 1899, at a time when the few people residing
here smiled at the efforts of the late Col. w. F. Cody and
Col. Peake, for their determination to give to the Cody
country a newspaper.
1t is for these reasons that we are continuing the name
of the paper which was established in the infancy of the
town. We are deeply appreciative of the generous support
of the business men of Cody and of our many friends over
the county, who have taken such a large part in the max
ing of the Park County Herald the success which it is,
and we hope to merit a continuance of this loyalty in the
publishing of The Cody Enterprise.
The policy of the paper will be one of upbuilding and
constructive work for the town of Cody, the county of
Park and state of Wyoming. We will endeavor to be as
fair as is humanity possible in every angle of our work.
We invite the constructive criticism of all and will use
our every effort to give the public a newspaper which will
fill it's every need.
AS the Park County Herald, we bid you goodbye.
