Our -strange rolling domicile Is one with many motions. We all know that it turns around on its axis, rolls around the sun In 3CT days, and Is traveling through space, accompanying the sun on its Journey. But most of us forget about the many other motions of the earth: We are glad to learn from Har vard that a "recent shaking of tho earth's crust was a movement back and forth, rhythmical and regular, six seconds to each swing." And while the earth's crust does move. It moveB only two ten-thousandths of an inch in either diree tlon. the motion continuing for many days. We should be very grateful that little human microbes can be Bale on this whirling globe, twenty-five thousand miles around, as heavy as though It were made of solid steel, with hot fire under our feet, and absolute zero, more than 400 de grees below freezing, all around us.
