THE PLANET MARS
By Archibald Henderson

UST now q colossal telescope

California Institute of Technol.
ogy at Pasadena. 1t is a re.
Hector Instrument with a mirror
200 inches in diameter. 1t is con-
structed with the idea of sur.
passing in power and efficiency,
by five or ten times, the present
largest astronomical instrument
IN the world-the 100.inch Hooker
telescope on Mt. Wilson, near
Pasadena. The new telescope will
penetrate hundreds of millions of
light-years In space. perhaps a
thousand millions Of light.years.
One Of its great services viii be
to enable us to study the tenn.
perature Of Mars and investigate
Its famous canals. It might place
the fantastic Mansfield Robinson.
OF London, in communication with
his Marian inarnorata!
Let us suppose we could trans.
port ourselves and the most pow
erful instrument we now have,
the Hooker telescope, to the sur
face Of Mars. We should wait
until the earth were nearest to
us, which would never be less
than 35,000,000 miles. The lay
man often wonders why We can.
not communicate with Mars, or
determine what the tabled canals
really are. Well, II we are on
Mars, let US take a. look at the
earth. What do we see? Singu.
1arly enough. we should not be
able to detect any evidence what.
ever of civilization upon the
earth. We could not distinguish
New York as a city; nor any of
the famous engineering works
Of men. Humanity would dwindle
into nothingness and only the
results Of the forces Of nature
Weuld be detectibla. All we
would see would be bright and
dark areas, with occasional bands
connecting the larger areas. We
would be able to draw only
vague surmises regarding the
melting OF snow and the advance
OF vegetation with the progress
Of the seasons.
So It Is with us now, as we turn
our telescopes upon Mars. Numer.

AMONGST THEM BEING THE
THEORY THAT WIVES SACRI-
FICE MORE THAN HUSBANDS.
'Tain't so!
To begin with. the very principle
of marriage implies sacrifice for
males. Marriage is woman's in
stitution. not a mans. Consider
the derivation of the word matri-
mony. MATER-MONY. MOTHER.
MONY. Does papa take the lead
in that combination? He does not.
It's MAMA'S-mony and for a very
good reason, Marriage was insti-
tuted to protect mothers and
babies. Fathers didn't need pro-
tection-nor want it. They pre-.
ferred a light heel and a wide
range-the wider the better. But
mothers and babies needed homes
and males to protect these homes.
Hence-MATRIMONY.
Marriage answers a woman's
deepest necessity, but it violates
a mans most cherished deire--the
desire for FREEDOM.
"But we sacrifice Cur freedom,
too" Us Girls cry. I'VE give up
our girlhood--
Oh. pooh!
Give up our girlhood? We do
indeed! And most of US work
overtime trying to do 1t. If that
be sacrifice, then we certainly
leap at it, sisters.
Marriage involves real sacri.
flee for men, not sentimental
theory. II you doubt it. try to
support a family.
Theoretically, It's the Missis
! who bears the heavy burden of
the family. According to her.
Pas contribution to that job is
a mere bagatelle.
Lookit him." says she. What
does he do, any way? Work
just eight hours in a. nice tidy
office. Then he can come home,
wash up. eat his supper. then
sit down and read his paper in
peace. But my work is NEVER

With that she grabs herself a
martyrs crown and puts it on
amidst the sympathetic sniffles
of her fellow-sufferers. PiffIe!
This theory that ''woman's work

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
by DR.. Louis Z. Biscll-

TUBERCULOSIS is. OF course.
Il one OF the most widespread
diseases. It In also a disease that
may attack almost any part of
the body, althOuh tuberculosis in
lection of the lungs Is the type
the average individual hears most
about.
Tuberculosis Is caused always
by a germ, the tubercle bacillus,
which was discovered by DR..
Robert Koch in 1882 Up until
that time the disease was thought
by many to be hereditary. Now
it is known that it is transmitted
from one person to another and
gains entrance into the body either
by inhaling 1t through the nose
or mouth or by swallowing 1t.
Tuberculosis il peculiarly a
disease of communication. The
germs thrive and multiply on
human tissue and die outside
the body.
AS all of us come into contact
with other fellow human beings
and. especially. since there are
those who have tuberculosis and
are not aware Of it because they
do not undergo periodic physi-
cal examinations, 1t is more
than probable that most of US
must breathe in these germs at
one time or another. But good
health, a resisting body, can and
does keep these bugs from
taking hold.
Were this the only reason for
maintaining sound and vigorous
health, it would be sufficient, for
tuberculosis Is a chronic and
wasting disease that may kill, or.
at any rate. impair seriously the
progress. happiness. and Geo.
nomic status Of the Individual
so affected.
1t Is true that ST. b." as
tuberculosis is so often called,
Is on the decrease, but that is due
to the fact that many people
are needing the warning signs
and are obtaining prompt and
efficient medical aid in time.
Certainly, billions Of tubercle
. bacilli are being expectorated
daily in our city streets ana dust
particles are conveying them to
our nostrils. Everyone. there.
fore, must be careful.
"A tuberculosis person owes 1t
to others not to be careless
about his nose and mouth
secretions. Furthermore, every
case of tuberculosis should be
reported to the local board of
health and the family should
be instructed how to take care
of the patient as well as OF
themselves. Negligence in the
use of sputum cups which can
be burned has started off many
cases,
Oyercrowding as in tene-
ments. is favorable means Of
spreading this disease.
Proper ventilation OF theaters,
halls. moving.picture houses, as
sembly rooms and churches
should be insisted upon.
Factory sanitation is, likewise,
highly important.
Overcrowding of public con-
veyances is another dangerous
state for the transmission OF
the '"T. b. infection.
What the tuberculous bacillus
cannot Withstand is sunlight. cold,
and fresh air.
All milk should be pasteurized,
or. at least. certified, especially
