Dr, Ehlsteln continuing his re - marches into the mYstoi'ler of the aniverse, has at his disposal at Mt., ' Wilson, Cal, six telescopes, ranging in size from a six -Bich refracting type to the 60 and 100-inoh reflecting telescopes. The .mauves of the collee- lion is the great 100 -inch reflector, a type of telescope with a huge concave mirror at the bottom, m.easuriug 100 fiches in diameter, This mirror col - 1,,01.5 the light of distant stars and orings them to a sharp focus. It is it, powerful that astronomers have oe"n able to de.tcct stars 840 million { .a tteou million miles away. There is notniag within average earthly meas- ireinenls to give one any idea of ('hat this great distance is, But this Al least can be said—that the light tor a star so far away would take 140 million years to get to the earth. And ( light travels 18l$,000 miles in one 'second. This huge telescope is so powerful Hint it gathers in 250,000 times as tnnch light as can the human eye. i ()rough it, astronomers here have l nein able to bring half a billion stars i :vthin visual range. That's about 100,000 times as tnany an one can see with the unaided eye on a bright night Looking through it at the moos, 350,000 miles away, an observer :meld distinguish thereon an object the size oi' the ocean liner Leviathan, which is 950 feet long. If a mirror could be placed on a star a minion light years away, an astronomer could see what happened on our earth two million years ago. Phe reason is that the light which had Just struck the astronomer's eyes has taken a million years to travel from the earth to the star dad an- other million years to return. At the focal point of this huge tele- scope, near the top, there is a highly sensitive heat-measu ring instrument called a thermocouple. This electrlo thermometer will measure the ' heat d of a candle flame 100 miles away. A star of what astronomers term the 13th magnitude is 631 times fainter than the faintest star that can be seen with the unaided eye. Yet this delicate instrument has measured such a star's heat and placed its heat on earth at one-half of one -millionth of a degree Fahrenheit. By thls means, and with the aid of an intricate mathematical formula, observers can determine the diameter of a star millions of light years away. A light year, by the way, Is the dis- tance light, travelling at 86,000 miles a second, can go in one year. That's about six million million (6,000,000,- 000,000 miles. A short distance from the giant telescope is one almost as large—tne 60 -inch reflecting telescope. This al- so is being used in two shifts, each 24 hours, to study the sun by day and the moon, planets and stars at night. With the aid of both of these large telescopes, also the men have been able to take photographs of the stars, and particularly of the sun's surface. This is done both through an instru- ment called a spectroheliograph, The Snow horizontal telescope, an- other of the six In the group, Is used daily for photographing the sun. heti- directly and with the spectrohelio• graph, in order to record the ia'visibl, clouds of calcium rapor and hydrogel: gas in its atmosphere, Close by is a 60 -foot tower, at the top of which 14 another telescope with apeetroh& lo graph, This is used for study of the pressure and motions of gases at vast ous levels in the sun's surface and beyond. Reaching 90 feet higher h another tower with a 75 -foot spectro- graph pectnYgraph and spectrohellogranh 'o^ tlir observation of magnetic disturbances on the sun, such as spots. The sixth of this group of Instru- ments is a six -Inch Iclerr-pe of thr refracting type. It Is different from the two large mirrors, or reflecting telescopes, in that it brings -a view of the distar,r object directly throng. lenses to the eye. Dr. Einstein will be able to study the thousands of stellar photographs in the observatory library, besides taking a squint through the eye- pieces of the various telesrepes. He will also have the opportunity of working with Prof. AlLurt A, Michel- son, one of the world's greatest phy- sicists, who Is trying to determine to a finer degree the speed of light. That Monday Feeling. Among the arguments In lavor of the shorter working week is the con- tention that a tong week - end rest Improves the eieelency and morale of the worker. There is statistical evi- dence to show, it is (]aimed, that the general standard of efficiency Is low- ered when the worker resumes with "that Monday feeling," tired and re- sentful of the necessity of getting back to his job. The incidence of In dustrlal accidents Is shown at the beginning of the week, and again at the end of the week; there are fewer accidents in told -week than at the be. ginning and the .end. This Is held by experts to be dun to the fact that the worker who does not get sufficient week -end rest resumes work in a fa- tigued state, and Is indifferent and careless until he "warms up" to hts job. As fatigue sets In again on the later days of the week, the results become apparent in an increase of accidents, I,bllects Shills for Living.

When the smoke cleared away, the merchants found they were left holding the bag, and the blonde school teacher is still at large teaching the merchants more new tricks along the line.
