Mysterious Behavior of Jupi-
Ter, Now Near the Earth,
PuZZling Astronomers.

A particularly large and brilliant
star" appearing in the sky in The early
evening has been attracting much atten-
ton in recent weeks,
Astronomers agree that this heavenly
body is only a star in appearance. 1T is
Jupiter. The most majestic OF the planets
INCH. accomplish their course around the
sun. Jupiter owes Us brilliant light 10
the sun, as does ouI moon. Acting like
q gigantic mirror, Jupiter sends On to Us
the rays of The greal source of light. 1t
is interesting to know that when the9e
rays reacn us they have made q journey
lasting an hour and ii quarter forty one
minutes to 20 from The sun to Jupiter
and thirty.tbTee minutes to go from there
to the earth. AS light travels at the rate
of 1876. 600 miles per second, the time
mentioned shows that a considerable dis
lance separate us from the planet. Jupl.
Ter, in fact, ]circulates at an vpra9e dis
lance of 483, 900. OJ0 miles from the sun,
whereas We are only 93, 1000, 600 miles
away from that luminary. A few weeks
ago Jupiter and the earth travelling on
their c|oucentric orbits, reached the point
where they are nearest together, that is
to say, about 800, coo, 600 miles away
from one another. All this point the wo
planets were on the same alignment pass
ing through the sun the center Of both
their orbits. On September z2nd when
Jupiter was in opposition to the sun it
appeared near the center Of the sky at
midnight under condition most favorable
for its observation.
Astronomers. therefore, had an unusu-
ally good opportunity lately to study the
remarkable features OF Jupiter. It is
So 600 miles in diameter, which means
that it is eleven times larger than The
earth in diameter and I,ZZ5 times larger
in cubic content. The planet is so large

A very modest telescope will reveal to
MS the characteristic details of this en0r-
nous planet. INN ediately we see how 1t
is fatJened nut AT the poles, a result cue
to centrifugal force, Jupiter having a
great rapidiry Of rotation. You car also
distinguish clearly a number OF bands OF
cloudy appearance, oil various colofs, ana
odolt, d iu many gases with dark and IgnJ
srOts. These bands are dlstrlE uted ln
various attitudes parallel TO Jupller
equator. The entire scene appears no q
conGltlon Of conn IeJe instability, The
varilus details replace one another SO
continually that th period OF rotation ol
jupiter does not az pear to be always the
same. 1T requires 9 hours b minutes
st The equator while il slows down 70
hours ID minutes at the 10th degree Of
latitude. Even the various bands ln the
same zone have not the same speed OF
rotation. Such instability leads asirouo'
mers to think that we have before us a
world still in the stage OF formation ana
with regard to which all our knowledge
can only be Hypothetical.
We can only record the frequent pro.
found and mysterious changes in Jupiter.
During the past year a radical rearrange-
ment has occurred on its surface, marked
principally by the disappearance of the
great southern tropical band and the IN.
creased importance of it's northern lea
lures. At the present moment the latter
appears To be HE scene of tremendous
dlstui Dances. These changes may be iol-
lowed with tie help Of an amateurs tele-
scope.
Around Jupiter ]reyoIve nine satellites
or moons, OF which the four principal
ones can he seen " tin the aid of a small
telescope or even am opera glass. You

have diameters of 8. 900, 1920. 3,4CO and
$500 miles. 1t is interesting To recall
the discovery Of thase moons by Calico
on January z, 1910, when be first applied
his telescope to thv study OF the skies.
The nearest moon 280, 600 miles away

NUMBER of other people In the cast of
The Spring Board" besides Madge
Kennedy and Sidney Blackmer. There
are scenes in which Walter Connolly
seems almost essential, for he could
be eliminated and the play reduced to
a sort of tea for two" demonstration.
AND very pleasant tea it proves--a
cup that cheers with sentiment, but
does not inebriate with emotion.
=. The author is Alice Duer Miller,
VINO has written smartly for maya
zines and who shows the effect of the
training. The story might have been
taken from any one of the faddistic
publications which flourish the gro
tesque in art, while the type revels in
human domesticity. 1t is about a
woman who does her best to stop low
Ing a trivial and selfish husband, but
whose heart keeps beating time to the
old song, Il Jes Can't Help Fun a
Lovin' Dat Man." 1t is. after all it's
occasional cynicisms, pleasant study
In human constancy, assuming to
point no moral and to suggest no first
aid to injured hearts.
The first act, like so many first acts,
appears a little palld, until the clos
aug SCeIle gives NHdt liSIS 10 Vi a
story its real> start. Here Sidney
Blackmer-the' fictitious names of the
characters are of no consequence-re-
veals himself to MadSe Kennedy as a
suitor as inexorable as Richard III
himself. There is no somber back
ground, but the mastery of a wheedling
tongue is displayed with startling dis
dain of all the traditions of feminine
self-command. Madge is an artist
with a career ahead-which she for
gets for Sidneys sake. And hope of
career is surely as much an object of
jealous solicitude to the modern wom
an as the memory of a deceased hus-
band was to the ancient lady.
The title. THE Spring Board is
cryptic. The clue to its interpreta
tion is given in one of the speeches
which refers to the use of a woman's
secure affections as a secure point
from which TO splash into f1irtatious
explorations.
Friends protest against the impos-
ticns she endures even more patiently |
than the wife in what Every Woman
Knows" The audience waits to see
the story of Katherine and Petruchio
rewritten to bring the unreasonable
man humbly responsive to beck and
call. But in this modern contest there
is no quarrel. The expected fiare-up
of justifiable resentment is only a
mild demonstration, after all.
The play ends exactly where it be-
gan with the selfish male in full COM
