Changes in Sun Cycles * Affect Earth’s Weather Capacity for Cooperation The chances are 30,000 to 1 that weather on the earth pulsates in uni son with changes on the sun. This conclusion was reached by Dr. The odore E. Sterne, lecturer on astro physics at Harvard university, who submitted to statistical analysis the data collected by the Smithsonian institution stations in various parts of the earth where the heat of the sun is being measured in constant ly maintained observations over a long period of years. Dr. Charles G. Abbott, secretary of the Smithsonian, has announced as a result of the study of these observations and weather observa tions made at the same time, that there are cycles in the earth’s weather and that these periodic changes are due to the variations in the sun’s heat. He found cycles with periods of 7, 8, 9.75, 11, 21, 25, 34, 39.5, 46 and 68 months. In the Harvard analysis Dr. Sterne found that the magnitudes of the cycles with periods of 7, 8 and 34 months were of such a value that they could be attributed to errors, but that the magnitudes of the remaining cycles were so large and the evidence in favor of their existence so strong that the odds against them being due to error are 30,000 to 1, or higher. The Smithsonian observations cov er 15 years. The overall average shows that the earth receives from the sun 1.941 calories a square cen timeter a minute, or about two horsepower a square meter. The variation in the sun’s heat stays within 4 per cent above and below the average. is a quality which must be developed more and more in our Ameri can life. We must learn to live t>gether and work for the common good. To protect ourselves against powerful minorities whose aim is to exploit us for their own selfish gains, the great mass of common people must learn that in cooperation lies the goal of the greatest good for the greatest number. Cooperation is the magic that must insure the retention of our political freedom, and cooperation is the magic that will gain for us a measure of economic freedom that we have never known before. Cooperative enterprises deserve your support. T a n g S alad D ressing P ea n u t B u tter 2 R elia n c e Corn r*"cyc“ X r m BIG VALUE 29c 29c 25c Lb.

A dog’s nose is about his best friend if he ever gets lost—even if he can’t smell his way home, young David Hoggan of Salt Lake City has decided. And his paws keep him in com parative safety of not missing sup per, even if he doesn’t know which direction to take. Nine-year-old David’s pup Mugs is smart, but David was forever in fear that Mugs would get lost, so he took the pup around to the police station to give the force a look at her, just in case. Sergt. Albert Rogers promptly be calmed David’s fears and assured him that all the men on the force wouldn’t have to see the dog—the department could identify her any time she was picked up. The sergeant took Mugs’ nose- print and pawprints, and filed the cards in the increasing collection of the Salt Lake City “Dog Identifica tion bureau,” and David took Mugs home satisfied. The file is not large enough to determine whether there is a possi bility of duplication, but Rogers has not found two prints alike yet—and has never failed to return a lost dog which had been printed. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our deep ap preciation for the beautiful flowers and for the kindness and help extend ed to us in our recent bereavement, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Dyer, Heating With Sun Rays Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Peterson, A small cottage may supply the Mr. and Mrs. Ross Newport, knowledge necessary to reduce the Mr. and Mrs. Waldo Dyer, costs of power, heat and air condi and their families. tioning by use of the sun’s rays, Massachusetts Institute of Technolo gy scientists believe. Prof. H. C. Hottel, director of the experiment, explained the workings of the cot tage. On the roof is a shallow, black, metal-lined box to absorb solar heat. A series of metal tubes is heated by the box and in turn heats water circulated through the tubes. Several glass covers on the box allow the sun’s rays to pass to the metal lining—and at the same time imprison most of the heat gen erated. When the water has been heated by the “heat collector” it passes through carefully insulated pipes to a basement storage tank. D ozen There—depending on the size of the tank—water can be kept hot for pe riods of a few weeks to half a year. L arge P ack ag e A flow of air around or through the tank would supply heat for the house —or by using the heat for power, 2 14-oz. Pkgs. could operate an air conditioning plant.

Fog signal men are placed at important points. They live near their work and on their own initiative go to their posts when fog descends. Or they may be called from signal boxes. They use 300,000 detonators, or “torpe does,” as they are known in Amer ica. The noisemakers tell the engi neers the position of the signal hid den from view by the fog. As an ad ditional safeguard one railroad has its own system of automatic train control. If the line is clear a bell rings by the engineer's side. If not, a siren blows and brakes are auto matically applied. The device is operated by signal men through an electric ramp at each caution sig nal on 2,855 miles of track and 3,259 engines. * GARDEN CLUB CHATS IRRIGON NEWS ITEMS Mrs. W. C.
