terf1ies, for there are colorful spots,
blotches and fine lines on the corolla
in most of the species. These flowers
are native almost exclusively to the
Pacific slope. California is especially
blessed with great number of them.
These flowers are divided into dis
tinct groups: Those with large bowl
like corollas swaying from slender
stems; the star-tulips, the smaller
members having wide-open corollas
fringed within, the typical mari
posas, and the globe-tulips, or fairy
lanterns, which we have here.
Fairy lanterns in rose, white or
gold nod from their stems with the
passing breeze. 1t is claimed by
those who know that the white
member is the most beautiful. John
Muir, who knew this flower well,
gave it the highest praise possible
calling 1t plant saint. or spotless
SOUL 1t was his desire that these
flowers be planted where many
could enjoy them and refresh them
selves by looking into their pure
faces.
1t is interesting to know that the
first Calochortus to be so called was
collected by Lewis and Clark at the
headWaters of the Kooskooskie
River in Idaho. 1t was not the ex-
quisite albus, but the modest little
cousin, pretty grass given the
name "elegans."

light. Many of them lived where
December days had only three or
four hours between sunrise and sun
set. Six months later, those same
people enjoyed extra long days.
When / speak of short December
days, I am thinking only of the
northern half of the earth. The
southern half is now having days
which are longer than usual. Peo-
pie in Australia and New Zealand,
for example, are having today the
most daylight they will have in the
entire year.
We speak of one day as the short
est in the year, but the fact is that
yesterday had almost exactly the
same amount of daylight as today,
and tomorrow will be just about
equal to today. There is less than
half a minute of difference in the
three days at any point between
Lake Superior and the equator.
Between now and the end of De-
cember, our gain in daylight will be
very small. December 81 will have
olllS tWo vi tllIcc iiiOIc uilliuIcS VI
daylight than the present day.
The rate of increase differs with
latitude. Ottawa, the Canadian
capital. will gain total of about so
minutes of daylight during January,
but Washington will gain only Al
minutes.
In Ottawa during February and
March the gain in daylight will be
almost three minutes a day. In
Washington the average gain in
those months will be about two and
a half minutes a day.

The olden Greeks called their sun
god Helios. They made pictures OF
him, and said he drove through the
sky in chariot pulled by four iiery
steeds. Later this god came to be
called Apollo, the name used for
him by the Romans.

Nelson Scores
PattOn's Attack
OnU. Soldier

Speaking before meeting of the
Workers Defense League in Min
neapolis on Sunday, Reverend C. T.
R. Nelson, pastor Of the st. Paul
Camphor M thodist Memorial
Church, scored General Patton's
beating of a shell-shocked Ameri-
can soldier. Reverend Nelson
stated, however, that the incident
appears as a tempest in a teapot"
compared to the daily mistreatment
and abuse of Negro soldiers in
army camps throughout the length
and breadth of this country.
The following resolution was
signed by the Workers Defense
League and telegraphed to the
President of the United States,
Congressman Melvin Mas, the
War Department, and the House
Military Affairs Committee: In
view of investigation being con-
Quoted regarding Patton incident,
we urge that investigation be ex-
tended to cover all army camps in
United States and elsewhere
where segregation and discrimina-
ton are practiced against Negro
troops as recently again brought to
public attention by Alton Levy case.
