Getting Worse
"For hours we had been working
like slaves When the water was
flooding the ship eight firemen and
four coal passers were ordered TO
form a bucket brigade to help bail
out the ship. We worked hard ana
long but it didn't do any good. Inc

After contemplating the possi-
bilities of life out in the 1innitless
swarms of SUNS and worlds and the
endless march "of the celestial hosts"
through the triIlions of years that
matter has existed, Abbot concluded
that conceivably there is life in
some form on Venus and Mars.
But he added:
The earth still remains the only
known abode of life and her life
depends. absolutely on the suns ra-
diation.
Safety Margin Narrow
This dependence rests on very
narrow margins of safety. For in
stance. the oxygen of the upper
atmosphere is induced to combine
into the form of ozone by the in,
fluence OF extreme ultraviolet
solar rays, and yet the ozone
formed is continually being recon
Yerted into oxygen by the influence
OF still other extreme ultraviolet
solar rays.
Thus occurs a balance OF these
effects. The upper atmosphere con-
tains so minute quantity of
ozone as would make, if brought
70 the BdFln, n gaseous layer only
as thick as cardboard.
'Yet this minute and almost for
tuitous atmospheric constituent
cuts off entirely the spectrum of
the sun and stars beyond the wave
length 1900 angstroms.
Would Destroy Life
"The solar rays thus cut off, If
they reached the earth. would
destroy human sight and tissues
by their powerful chemical activ.
ity."
DR.. Abbot explained that humanity
could be shielded from these effects,
but he added that "our ancestors
who lived before the invention OF
spectacles would have lost their
| sight, or never attained It," Slightly
greater absorption of suns rays
would afflict animal and human
| young with ricketts,.
T Planetary temperatures about as
high as the earth's appear to be re-
quisite to the higher forms of life.
