It is these success ive flashes that cause the fam iliar flickering of lightning. Calculations show that it requires about 20 sec onds for a cloud to accumulate enough charge for another flash. Thunder is due to the same cause as the sharo crack we hear when an electric spark jumps. The noise is produced all along the lightning flash. The long-drawn roll of thun der with-a series of bangs is due to the different lengths of time taken by sound to reach us from different parts of the spark. (Sound travels 1,100 feet a second, taking five sec onds to travel a mile.) While a thunderstorm is a com paratively rare event at any one place in temperate latitudes, the number of thunderstorms a day ex perienced by the earth as a whole is very large. From information taken from all parts of the world Brooks estimates that the earth ex periences 16,000,000 thunderstorms a year, or 44,000 a day. There w ill be on the average 1,800 thunder storms in progress in different parts of the world at any one moment (the average duration of a storm is taken as one hour). It appears from measurements that the potential (volts) produced during thunderstorms is very high indeed—of the order of a thousand million volts. On the other hand, the actual amount of electricity that flows in a lightning flash is almost unbelievably small. • It is estimated that China’s 350,- 000,000 hens lay 26,250,000,000 eggs annually. * • • A cow that weighs 1,200 pounds and produces 40 pounds of milk dai ly requires about two ounces of salt each day. • • • Green feeds are an important source of necessary vitamins. • • THE WORLD'S GOOD NEWS L ig h tn in g Flashes Pass T o p to Bottom o f Cloud M EM BER.

Cowles in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Roger II, king of Sicily (d. 1154), carried off silk workers from the Peloponnesus and so introduced the industry into Sicily. Roger Bacon was a Thirteenth century monk and philosopher whose research in al chemy and optics caused his im prisonment on a charge of prac ticing black magic. Roger Boyle, earl of Orrery (d. 1679), was an English statesman, soldier, author. Roger Williams (d. 1683) founded the state of Rhode Island and the first Baptist church in America Roger Wolcott (1679-1767) was a co lonial governor of Connecticut. Rog er Sherman (d. 1793) was one of the drafters of the Declaration of Inde pendence and a member of the Con stitutional convention. Roger Kemble (1721-1802) founded the English fam ily of actors of this name. He was head of an itinerant company of actors. Of his 12 chil dren, Sarah K. Siddons became the most famous. Roger B. Taney (1777-1864) was chief justice of the Supreme court. Sir Roger D. Casement (d. 1916), Irish revolutionist, was hanged for treason and is considered a m artyr. Island of Caves Staffa, island of the Inner He brides of Scotland, is famous for its cave of Fingal, its majestic en trance with basaltic columns from 20 to 40 feet in height, and other curious caves to explore; caves dis covered first by Sir Joseph Banks in 1772. The Gaelic name for Fingal’s is “ The Cave of Music,” expressive of the sounds and tones of the sea around and within it. It is the home of seals and sea birds, once a haven from storm for hardy seafarers. Its ocean floor is always nine feet deep. FOR SALE— HOUSE & FOUR LOTS. Easy term s w ith reasonable down paym ent.
