Believe Heliur11
Above Ceiling

L0NDON-R-0ne hundred miles
above the surface Of the earth the
atmosphere consists almost wholly
Of helium gas, believes Sir William
Napier Shaw, eminent -meteorologist.
IL this conclusion is right IL will
never be possible, IL is commended,
for aircraft to navigate the upper
atmosphere.
In a new manual Of m~eseorologyi'
in which Sir Napier Shaw sets forth
this view he deals with many other
matters bearing upon atmospheric
conditions.
He maintains that as the light of
auroras has been seen as high as
500 miles from the earth, gases of
some kind must exist far out from
this globe.
Comparatively low down comes the
famous heavy side" layer in the at
mosphere, 80 to so miles up II is
this layer which reflects wireless
waves and renders wireless signal
ling possible.
One point that energies from Sir
Napier's Investigations is that me-
~teorclogy thus Tar has afforded no
means OF fore telling the weather at
the earth's surface far ahead, al
though he supports 70 some extent
the theory that there is a cycle Of
35 years in which the weather re-
peats itself.
