The question before us now is
the reason for the mighty ice
sheets which covered large parts
of the earth during past ages.
One OF the theories which
biologists offer has to do with
rising ground in the northern
half of the globe. bringing colder
weather. Another suggests that
the sun had far more spots dur
ing certain period leading to
storms on earth. to clouds and
to cooler weather.
Those theories, one or both,
may contain truth, but neither
biologists nor astronomers have
adopted any single theory to ex-
plain the ice ages.
More than half century ago,
Sir George H. Darwin. a British
astronomer, suggested that the
ice ages were caused by changes
in the slant of the earth's axis
This theory seems the best to
me.

believed that little, if any.
change is brought about in the
slant of the axis.
One astronomer estimated
that the North Pole "wanders"
about 80 feet each year. but
stated that he believed there was
yearly return of the same dis
tance.
Even our best instruments fail
to give us exact knowledge on
this point. If the North Pole
swung 80 feet in a year. and
came back only 20 feet, there
would be a difference of 10 feet
in the slant. This would change
the slant by % miles in $4,000
years.
AS a reason for the ice sheets,

slant of the earth's axis increases
a little, say two or three degrees.

But after Miss Brash's over
all it was practically certain the
ace of diamonds was behind the
king In other words. the line of
play described above would lose.
Thus, with the aid of Miss
Brash who hates to be shut out
of the auction, Mr.. Masters
found the winning play.
The nine of clubs was opened
by Mr.. Abel, covered by dummy's
10, Miss BraSh's jack and won
In the closed hand with the king.
Mr.. Masters timed the play of
the trumps correctly. cashing
the king first, then leading to
dummy's ace. If he had care
lessly taken both trump tricks in
his own hand. leaving the lone
ace on the board, he would have
had no convenient entry back
to his own hand and the play he
had in mind would not have been
possible.
Beginning at trick four Mr..
Masters cashed the ace and king
of spades. He re-entered his
hand with a trump and cashed
the queen of spades, discarding
a small diamond from dummy.
Then he led out all of his re-
naming trumps, leaving on the
board the king of diamonds and
the ace and eight of clubs.
At this point it was fairly
clear Miss Brash's last three
cards were the lone ace of dia-
monds and the once-guarded
queen of clubs. Mr.. Masters
therefore led a diamond at the
eleventh trick and Miss Brash
was in for a forced lead into
dummy'S club tenace.

in the range at definite drunken
ness.
Let us now look at another group
of individuals who were killed in
motor vehicle accidents. These were
passengers in motor cars. OF Is
such persons tested, six had been
drinking prior to their deaths.
Again, this represents almost half
of the total tested. Although we
cannot state that drivers of these
vehicles were equally intoxicated,
it is quite possible that the condi-
ton Of the passengers may have
offered sufficient distraction to
the drivers to be the precipitating
cause Of the accident.
If any moral is to be drawn from
these results, it appears to be that
drinking should be confined to the
home and not allowed to evidence
itself on our highways.

Wants to Add to

Akron, Ohio

To the Editor:
l would like to add little to the
letter of Mr.. Thomas Wilson Of
Kitzmiller.
l also think the G. c. Memorial
hospital is wonderful. My mother
was injured by an auto on October
Of 1852 and remained there until
January - of 1853. Her life was
hanging by thread and by the
grace Of God and Dr.. Alvarez she's
still living. We never hoped to see
her walking again. But at present
she's getting around very well. Had
it not been for the surgeons con
Germ she wouldn't be here today.
He was also the one who was so
kind as to tell her about the death
of her husband and my father,
which would have been a hard Job
for anyone.
The nurses and everyone at the
hospital were so kind and she al
ways has a good word for everyone
she came in contact with. She has
a letter from Miss Sharpe She re-
ceived after her discharge, and
prizes it highly.
Besides her wonderful care and
attention her doctor and hospital
bills We're very fair, especially
when you compare them with larger
hospitals, which couldn't be any
better.

1t has been frequently stated,

many persons continue to drink al

people operate under the belief that
"a small one" won't hurt them, and
some even believe that the con

driving ability.
The experience of the Chief Medi-
cal Examiners Office offers serious
refutation to these beliefs. In all
deaths caused By motor vehicles in
Baltimore City in 1851, routine
analysis for alcohol were conducted
in those cases in which death oc-
CURED within twenty-fom hours
Of the time Of injury. The results
Of these analyses indicate that
even moderate drinking Of alco-
holic beverages affects adversely
the Judgment and skin of many
individuals.
False Security
For example, analyses conducted
in 20 fatalities of drivers Of pass
engcr cars showed that only five Of
these persons had no alcohol while
IS had consumed some alcoholic
beverage. Three-fouiths of those
tested, therefore, had been drink
ing prior to the accident Seven of
the Is positive cases had concen-
tlations of alcohol within the
safe" range, but it is difficult to
deny the fact that some persons
would have poorer refleXes than
normal with even such low alcohol
concentrations, and hence would be
more likely to be involved in am ac-
cident Six Of the drivers tested
had alcohol concentrations in the
range just below definite drunken
ness. This stage of INVESTIGATION is
probably the most dangerous one in
that it gives one a feeling Of false
security. The subject is not so
drunk as to be reeling but he is
definitely incapable of performing
any Of his normal activities as
well as he does when sober. How
ever, because of his INVESTIGATION,
he believes that he can perform
such activities not only as well, but
slightly better than normally.
Hence, when such an individual
places himself behind the wheel Of
a car, he becomes a menace, not
only to himself, but to all others on
the highways.
