The Chll1ren's Corner
Edited by DOROTHY EDMONDs

They pushed and crowded right and
left,
Each scrambling for a place,
And not one paused moment,
Nor bowed his head for grace.
They never waited to be served,
When once they had q seat,
But reached for things, and without
shame
Began at once to eat;
And not one used a knife nor fork,
But dived into his food,
With little fingers all unwashed,
I'm sure you'd think them rude.
And when they'd stuffed their little
selves,
Till they could eat no more,
There yet would be upon their
plates
Enough for three or four;
These greedy little children
Wanted all that they could see,
Because their eyes are in the place
Their dummies" ought to be.

This country Is most beautiful,

The buildings tall and grand:
But all these funny children
In this isle I went to see,
Have eyes right in the very place,

his Democrat subscription, wrote:
The close times for the past year
have kept us busy keeping the wolf

on us, as our wife has been almost
an invalid for some years past, ann
the further fact that our savings of

good old United States were able to
live and prosper. And it took these
special interests all these years af'

New Auto Tax Rates

In its efforts to equalize taxi
ton the last general assembly e1
acted a number of new taXatit q
measures, among these being a law
to levy increased annual license
tax on operation of motor vehicles
on the public highways. One may
own automobiles without paying
any tax on them, but when he
wishes to use them on the high
ways, he must pay modernized
"toll' to help pay for the building
and upkeep of the public roads.
Communications going out from
the Motor Vehicle Bureau of Sec.
retary of State Clarence j. Browns
office, point out the changes in
brief, thus: Under the present law
the license fees on passenger cars
having 25 horsepower or less is
$4; the new price is 81. The pas
senger cars now paying fee of IS,
25 to 35 horsepower, will increase
to one of three amounts according
to horse-power-$10, SIS or $40. At
the present time all passenger cars
over 35 horsepower pay fee Of
SO, while under the new scale
they Will pay a fee of $25.
The new law does away with the
requirement for listing for taxation
of autos and household goods.

state that they were the best high

angle of the game they showed
great strength. At no time were

and while they were fully aware o.

fall on the SO inch mirror will oe
nearly 10000 times that which
can be received by the human eye.
This means that there will be Wis
ible to the astronomer planets,
moons, distant suns, and wisps of
nebulae 10000 times fainter than
the eye could ever see.
Astronomers are sometimes ask
ed how far one can see with such
a telescope. Did you ever stop to
think how far you can see with the
eye? Perhaps on a clear day from
some mountain top you have seen
one hundred miles. But look at the
moon and you are looking 100000
miles. Or glance at a star which is
millions upon millions of miles
away, and you can appreciate how
futile such question is.
On the other hand, if you wish to
be told of the remotest object in
space which the human eye can see
the answer is definite. it is tn,
great nebula in Andromeda which
can just be seen with the naked
eye as fuzzy star not far from the
square of Pegasus. 1t is so far
away that the light which your eye
just perceives tonight left that
distant universe 100000 years ago,
and light travels six million million
miles year. If Andromeda
nebula, however, were twice as far
away il would have to be four times
as bright to be visible to the naked
eye, for the brightness of an object
decreases with the square of the
distance.
In spite of this handicap how
ever, astronomers at the Perkins
observatory with the new rejecting
telescope will be able to see other
universes like the Andromeda
nebula $50 times as far away.
If, then, we ask the question in
telligently, How far may we hope
to see with the 50 inch telescope"
answer is simple. it is $50 million
million light years. 1t is estimated
that hundreds of thousands of dis
tant universes will come within
range of this latest instrument OF

ment of optical engineering of such
magnitude to be accomplished
within the United States. The only
two larger telescopes in existence,
the 100 inch of the Mt. Wilson OBJ
seryatory near Pasadena, and the
70 inch instrument of the Victoria
Astrophysical observatory in Brit

The disk from which the SO inch
mirror has been executed is
crowning achievement of the OPP
tical division of the bureau OF
standards in Washington, and was
undertaken by them as a research
proposition in the development OF
glass making in this country. The
extraordinary quality of glass is
just now becoming apparent
through the optical tests of the par
aboloid mirror, which years OF
grinding have perfected at the
workshop of J. w. Fecker in Pitts
burgh. The mirror will soon be
removed to Delaware, Ohio, where
the gigantic mounting representing
the last word in engineering skill is
awaiting its reception.
With the installation of the mir

have the equivalent of a human
eye nearly six feet in diameter to
peer into the deepest recesses of

scopes of such large aperture in
modern astronomical Investigations
lies in the enormous light-gather-

pieces. To the naked eye all of the
