PETIT TELLS
0FNEW IN
ASTRONOMY

The development of new instru'
ments for scientific study has
usually added greatly to mans
knowledge.
An example of what new instru,
ments can help reveal was cited
by DR.. Edison Petit, of the Mount
Wilson Observatory of the Car
negie Institution of Washington
in a commencement address. He
said:
Another classical problem of
astronomy was that of meas
uring the radiation from the
stars and planets by the heat
ing effect. Thirty years ago
heat from the stars had just
been detected with the radio
meter, but hardly measured.
Twenty years ago it was sue
cesfully attacked witn the
vacuum thermOcOuple, and, to-
day. we have numerous good
measurements with this instru-
ment.
"SOme human interest is at
tached to the making of Their
mocouples. To be sufficiently
sensitive their masses must be
of the order of one thOuSandth
that of a drOD of water, The
parts are laid under a micro
scope and welded with az cleo
tricallv heated needle. The eff
feet Of a vacuum is to raise
their senSitivity Is to 80 fold.
NEW INVENTION
"One incident will illustrate
the peculiar difficulties of han.
ding such small masses. l had
Just completed q thermOcOuple

tached. This was suspended be-
tween the two platinum lead
wires of the cell, preparatory
to soldering. The thermOcOuple,
thus suspended, was adjusted in
the field of the microscope and,
taking a final glance through
the instrument, / found much
to my disappointment it had
vanished, owing, as 1 thought,
to my breathing.
"a second glance revealed the
small platinum wires still In
place OscilIating rapidly. 1t then
occurred to me that here 1 had
a pendulum nm long in vibra-
ton by q small California earth
quake, and its natural frequency
of 80 beats a second, in the re-
gion of audible sound, accounted
for its inviSibility.
I'm beginning the work it took
six months to make the first
vacuum thermOcOuple, which we
nut on the 1OO-inch telescope,
checking the measures on known
stars, Just before midnight we
completed this survey and con-
Sidered the next move.
STAR is TEST
''NOting that o Ceti, a star of
many peculiarities, was near the
meridian we tried our inStru-
ment on it in spite of its great
faintneSS, 9th magnitude at that
time, and to our surprise found
it radiating like a first magni-
tude blue star. The immediate
import of this fact was that
these lOngperiOd variable stars
are the giants Of the giants
among suns. In spite Of their
low temperatures, their size
more than makes up for the low
rate of radiation"

Now what is the truth?" asked Senator Lewis B.
lSchwellenbach of Washington in a recent address.
why does Mr. Shouse persist in thus dstorting the
facts? We look the financial interests behind Mr..
Shouse The sworn statement of the Liberty League
shows that he received its president during 1885
personal expenses $4,000 SITS for each working day
The League is a propaganda organization Its pur-
pose to discredit President Roosevelt and prevent his
reelection 1t distributed upward of 112 pamphlets
in the last 18 months, every of which contained
criticism of the President and his administrao ton.
The statement shows that during 1885 the League
received as financial aid the sum of s4S3ooo Of which
$4,000 came from the dupont family or their busl-
ness or personal associates affiates.
What is the business If the duPonts? 1t is the
manufacture of munitions The morbid business of
war.
why the duPonts interested in defeating
President Roosevelt? Because this administration,
for the first time in the history of the Nation under
the leadership of Franklin Roosevelt has taken
structive steps to prevent repetition of America
entry into European conflicts The neutrality laws
Roosevelt forced upon the statute books an eff
fective preventative
Senator Schwellenbach has put his finger on some
thing, of which the American people are fairly well
convincedthat the Liberty League, whether support
ed by the duPonts somebody else represents every
thing but rank and file of American citizens Certain
forces charge President Roosevelt with melting class
against What pray is the Liberty League except
very small class of very rich persons attempting to
control the thought of all the American people and
unfortunately for the Republican party, fighting I'M
der its colors?

A Challenge to the G. o. p.
Cincinnati Enquirer)

tCmclnnau enquirer
Mr. Robert L. OBrien, Chairman of the Tariff
Commission, knows good deal more about tariffs
than the most of the gentlemen Congress- probably
more than any of them. His proposal that the Re-
publican convention should endorse the reciprocal
tariff policy of the administration is therefore OF i'm
portance Being Republican, Mr.. O'Brien compels
respect from the leaders of the c. o. p. matter
how concerned they may be to find the largest pos
sible number of arguments against Mr.. Roosevelts
reelection.
AS Mr.. OBrien pointed out, the principle OF exc
cutve action in the fixing of tariffs developed
first by the Republican party 1t can. therefore, ap-
prove the reciprocal trade pact program with suit
able improvements without in any way retreatng from
its historic position
The trouble comes in the fact that particular
groups of people in certain localities against the
whole reciprocal tariff plan because they believe they
Individually have been injured by another tar
if change made in recent trade agreements With
their tendency to oppose generall law because they
have specific complaint against minute part OF
it, powerful interests likely to put heavy pressure
on the Republican leaders In the past this pressure
has been enough to lead the Republican party into one
great folly after another where tariffs have been
cerned.
The American people expect the G. o. P to OPP
pose the New Deal But they do not expect blind
criticism which takes no account of the progress
made in the last three years. The tariff program of
the Roosevelt Administration while falling short OF
the Nations needs is of its brightest spots For
the g. O. P. to condemn this program, merely be-
cause it is Democratic in sponsorship and because
selfish interests demand it, is to pass up very great
opportunity for constructive craftsmanship

the general classification men referring to pros

The writer here and vigorously states that
the ladies entered in the primaries included in
the classification and if any readers did not SO in
terpret the general term he wishes to correct any
erroneous impression and states that wherever those
running for nomination are referred to men,
the two women office seekers included.

EILM is the cause of dull, dis
l. colored teeth. It is also the
cause of serious tooth and gum
disorders. Run your tongue across
your teeth and you will feel this
film. 1t absorbs stains from food
and smoking and turns white teeth
dull. 1t clings to teeth and hardens
into tartar. Germs by the millions
breed in it. And germs, with tar
tar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
Ordinary brushing fails to remove
film successfully. So dentists urge
the special .flm-removing dentifrice
called Pepsodent.
