HIT AND RUN
By McMann

Many an editorial is being
written catechising the United
States Chamber of Commerce
about ''being mad" at the New
Deal.
In making over the world, the
radicals, it seems, are still reserv-
ing the right of criticism for
themselves only.
While the U. S. senate is max.
ing all this fuss about looking
into strike-breaking agencies, It
might use a little of its energy
in giving the strike-making agen-
cies the once-over.
Those investigating the relief
swindles had best acquire asbes-
tos gloves; for, as the case de-
velops it may become too hot to
handle.
Nationwide anti-war demon
strations come off April 22 on all
university campuses.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES e. TRACEWELL.
Where is there q more beautiful sight
ha kAa rdnv. iv, poiN9

Where is there q more beautiful sight
than the garden in rain?
Sweeping curtains, deep with perspec-
tive and moisture, endless lure Of waters,
whereaver found
How much they are ours, In city and
suburbs, IL we claim them by watching
them in the garden!
It will not do to consider rainfall as
just SO much water, and let it go at
that; 1t Is vastly more, 1t is picture, 1t
is lure, it Is glamour, to steal the ad
mans thunder.
How the use Of that word has grown
in the past few yearsl
Everything Is "glamorous," now, from
o womans eyebrows to a cake Of soap.
Even our automobiles possess a def
mite glamour no one ever thought OF
attributing to them ten years ago.
This charm, or whatever you call it,
may be felt in rainfall If 1t is viewed
in an average small garden.
There Is a picturesque quality to it
scarcely possessed by the same rain
which is steadily falling in the streets.
It is true in the suburbs, the whole
community is garden. in a sense. In
most Of our better streets 1t is impossible
to see the houses for the trees and
shrubs.
1t is garden everywhere, but the best
garden Is the back yard, where there
is no need to meet the exigencies OF
street and motor car.
Modern landscape treatment usually
demands more restraint in the front.
A tree q few shrubs some evergreens,
grass-these are the essentials, and any
thing else in front of a house, with a
few exceptions, is unnecessary.
1t is the back yard, then, one should
watch. during q rainstorm.
The unusual amount of rain recently
has been q boon to all good garden
watchers.
They not only have had the pleasure
OF watching the response of dry lawns,
shrubbery which needed q good water
ing, the renewed growth Of ANIMALS,
struggling against what amounted to
drought but above all, they had the
genuine pleasure of watching the rain
itself.
Always watch the falling water for it
self.
You might as well!
nothing in it.
1t is better to get this added interest
in life, than to see a fine rain with
unseeing eyes, backed by mind which
is moping over something or other.
This good interest in things as they
happen is the writer's joy, Of course,
above all, and above every one else. If
at times he cannot get away from seeing
everything as pictures, when he sincerely
wishes that he might, just for moment.

Absolutely nothing!

The Scriptures suggest the relation be-
tween the forces involved. How could
ignorance have domination over either
animate or inanimate creation? To rule
as the Creator intended. His children
require acquaintance with truth meas
urably like unto His own.
Hence the age-long quest for the laws
of life, the principles of existence to
which Cicero referred In his De Natura
Deorum: THE beauty Of the world, the
order of the celestial system, the revo-
luton Of the sun, of the moon, of all the
stars, indicate sufficiently, at q very
glance. that all these things are not
merely accidental" 1t is a search for
the purpose of the universe.
And in the struggle humanity labors,
suffers meets victory or defeat, finally
dies Even the dullest of individuals is
conscious of the ordeal and entertains
in his heart some honorable respect for
the effort. DR.. McNally and his coll
leagues, therefore, are appreciated. They
belong with those who climb the strato-
sphere, dive into the deepest depths of
the sea, explore the Poles, ascend noun
tains, penetrate jungles, emulate CO.
lumbus and by their endeavors add to
the intellectual capital of millions who
are assigned to other work but are not
too preoccupied to think of the kingdoms
still unconquered.

Clarifying, At Least.

Mr.. Blanton has neatly slid from
under exclusive responsibility for send
ing the impudent questionnaire to
Washington school teachers by sharing
the responsibility with the Federation
of Citizens Associations.
If the federation wishes to let the
matter rest there, that is the federation's
business. The dispatch of the question
naire was contemplate enough. But
citizens of Washington will not believe
that the Federation of Citizens ASso-
Citations willingly consented to the use
of its good name in sicking Mr.. Blanton
on the teachers in order to sneak up and
peek over his shoulder at the contents
of the questionnaires. That is not the
sort of thing one willingly associates with
the Federation of Citizens Associations.
But Mr.. Blantons clarifying state
ment concerning the questionnaires is,
In another respect, highly comforting.
It shows that while he was willing to

At two frontier Tartar towns in the
middle of the black steppe country of
Eastern Siberia little groups Of American
stronomers-including five from Wash
ington-this afternoon nervously are
awaiting the 1886 total eclipse of the sun.
At the baked mud settlement of Al
Bulak are DR. and Mrs. Irvine c. Gardner
OF the United States Bureau Of Stand
ards with an entirely new kind of equip
ment. devised and mostly constructed
by themselves, for eclipse observation.
This is q portable telescope camera. In
the past the setting up OF apparatus for
photographing an eclipse has required
the construction Of q secure foundation
and q lumber framework for the tele-
scope 1t required week or more OF
hard labor, in addition to the trans
portation of material into the waste
places of the earth where eclipSes have
q habit of taking place.
The telescope camera devised by DR..
and Mrs. Gardner has tube only about
10 feet long, the whole, equipment Is
carried in two packing cases, and the
cases themselves are so constructed that
they form part of the mounting. The
whole can, If necessary, be packed on
the back. Experiments have demon
strated that with this equipment as
sharp photographs can be taken Of the
solar image as with the far more elabo-
rate apparatus of past expeditions. DR..
and Mrs. Gardner are observing this
eclipse as representatives Of the Ma
tional Geographic Society
At the larger town of Kustanai, GEN.
ter Of Eastern Siberian gold mining
activity, is the Rev. DR.. Paul A. McNally,
director of the Georgetown College OBJ
servatory, and his two assistants. They
have set up equipment to make precise
observations Of the positions of the sun,
moon and nearer visible stars, during
the brief interval Of eclipse totality.
They will make Photographic records.
The Georgetown party represents both
the National Geographic Society and the
United States Naval Observatory. At

versity Massachusetts, Institute Of Tech

The Darkened Sun.

Hundreds of men of science have
their attention momentarily fixed upon
a darkened sun. Beginning just be-
fore eleven o'clock, New York time, this
evening-dawn in North Africa-the
central orb of the human universe will
be obscured by the moon. Totahty over
Siberia, where American expeditions are
working at Ak-Bulak and Kustanai, is
calculated to endure for two minutes and
thirty-one and q half seconds. The
shadow will follow a path approx
mately eighty-two miles wide from
Tripoli across Asia to q point in the
Pacific far east Of Japan.
But the remoteness of the spectacle
from Washington does not greatly
detract from its interest to many local
readers. Georgetown University and the
National Geographic Society have rep
resentatives in Russia to study the phe-
nomena. DR.. Paul A. McNally is in
charge Of their camp and will report on
their observations. 1t is his hope to
discover the nature of the light seen
in the suns corona while the obscura-
ton endures. The colors Of the area
around the blazing whirling mass are
one of the major mysteries of celestial
physics.
Perhaps the public may wonder why
such a problem should engage the en-
thusiasm OF scientists. Yet the explana-
ton is self-evident. 1t Is the business OF
mankind to exercise power-governanc
and control-over the earth. and in

the House yesterday Sweeney attacked
Roosevelt and his New Deal, predicting
that Landon will carry Ohio by 1000
votes next November. Sweeney halls
from Cleveland. He was reelected in
1894 by big vote. His attack upon the
Roosevelt ticket is not likely to prove
an aid to the President-anything but
an aid, in fact. Ohio is one of those
States that very likely will flop over to
the Republican party in the coming

rejoices for his ANIMALS sake but finds
more there than that. II his jumpers
are getting the scale, as a result of the

or two will wash them off, and how.
He wonders If the new locusts, Just
Matched out, will crawl down the old

but will make holes of their own, in
their good time. So the rainfall filling
up the old holes makes no difference.
Rain is spectacle, especially so in
the small garden, which is given a new
dignity by suddenly being made an in
tegral part of Nature. So often we
think of the small yard as cultivated,
perhaps overcultivated, but the sudden
Summer storm snaps it back into the
ancestral pattern.
Those great black clouds, lowering,
majestic, form the backdrop for the

wild rabbits, run before the storm.

probably it would come just this way,

need water badly.
How tall by the corner fence are grow

Boneset, known to the Indians and
the coloniSts, proclaimed in the books
as Eupatorium perfoliatum, throws its
Stanch weedy stalks aloft. 1t, too has
a history, and many names. No doubt
your grandmother took boneset tea.
Flowers, and herbs, and animals, and
insects, mingle with rain, and mist, and
words, and memory, to make even the
most prosaic rainstorm glamorous be-
yond belief-if you have the glamour
in your eyes.
