'Sltnilarly if the simplest germs. Germs are every- body's army of defence As stronger where—in the soil, in the sea, every- than the attacking army of germs, the attack is beaten on, leaving the body weakened from dlsease. But if the germ -army is too strong the Wenders are beaten and the patient dies. So now we understand that it would be just as impossible for a person to die ot diphtheria Without first being attacked by the germ of this disease. as for a walled city to be sacked and burned by en invading army la the absence ot that army. No other dis- ease gerne Can cause diphtheria and dtplttheria germs can cause no other disease. where when, warmth and "nniisturo are to bo found. Germs stake It possible for men to live, germs cause men to die, and germs destroy tate bodies ot men when they are death. Germs are our greatest friends and our fiercest foes. They cause plants to grow. Thoy assist man to make linen, jute, hemp, butter, cheese, and many other things, They are the great scavengers that destroy dead tissues. But unfortunately some few ot the many different kinds of germs have learned how to attack human beings, with the result that in the great Icing- dom of germ lite there aro some kinds more dangerous to humans than all the mighty beasts of prey the world Inas ever seen. Yet, till the seven- teeuth centttry no ono had ever aeett these tiny shapers of human destiny. Let us consider a concrete example of u germ that attacks the human sys- tem. Let us consider diphtheria. Germs ot this disease attack the throat of a human being; in such a warm moist place they rapidly feed and breed. Now if that were all that happened it wouldn't be so bad, but like' all other living creatures germs give off au excreta and this in the case of diphtheria germ Is poisonous to the human system. Titis poison apreads throughout the body, and as a result of it the disease known as diph- theria develops.. From tide example, we sen that -many diseases are caused by different kinds of germs. To better understand this, lot us pieture a Walled city in the middle ages, a city- peacotul and prosperous. Suddenly an invading luny sweeps down upon it. Now that is what happens when the human body is invaded by germs, It main- tains, in its bloodstream, an army ot its own—a defenoa army which ate Deathless By Thomas Curtis Clark They say that beauty dies: as•roses facie And are no more; as Summer, onoe so bright, As Autumn's song must by the winds bo stayed.

Drop Hotter Than 100 Suns With Power to breve An Ocean Liner Sun, Alone, Does Not Heat the Earth—Warmth Also Sup- plied from Disintegration of Atoms Beneath Surfacce A thousand scientiets in all parts of in the atom wo are speaking of using the power which results wh.on the atom itself, the combination of ,pro-, tons and electrons, is broken down, SemaO p wet some 'force binds the parts of an atom together. The secret at tieing the IioWer• is the atom is to. rind an tnexperisive way of releasing that atomic binder. "A method for extracting the pewee ,of the atom' must tear the atom apart. if it is to be of any practical value. Energy in a disintegrating radium atom is a terrific • force—radium des- troys itself." A great contribution which perhaps comes the closest to showing men of science what is th composition of the atom was desci+ibed recently by Dr. Arthur Compton; the 1,827 Nobel Pelee winner in physics. Iris experiments indicate that scientists will havo to abandon the idea that atoms are form- ed like minute, universes. According to Dr.. Compton, the atone is not a miniature solar} system iu which the tiny negative charges of eleetriclty— the electrons Move in a fixed orbit around the protan, or nucleus, of posi- tive electricity. Nov is the electron a diffused cloud et negative electricity. It is, rather, composed or particles of Matter distributed like raindrops in a cloud.

But man has done better. In his la boratories 1,000,000 degrees Conti - ,grade is not unknown. Sir Arthur Ed- dingtou recently said that if we could 'Stir up a heat ot '29,000,060 or 40,000,- ett degrees the. atom, might begin to . g!vo e i o11flc yield, of its energy, He went on 'to make the astonishing •statement' that "40,090,000 degrees is, perhaps, not beyond attainment in our laboratories. Splitting the Atom • "At Cavendish. Laboratory," he con- tinued, Dr, on-tinued,Dr, Hapitza, produces .monten- tat'y fields in which the concentration of energy corresponds to about 1,000,- 000 ,000;000 degrees Centigrade: If he should be able to raise this to 40,000,000— well, I don't really think subatomic energy will come pouring out, but,, just to be on the safe side, I shall take care not to be too near the laboratory when the experiment: is tried." Sir Arthur itddington : has stated that there fa enough. energy in a drop ot water to -furnish `200 horse -power for a year; that perhaps some day great generating stations . • with wharves and sidings would be neces- sary; and instead of pampering the appetites of our engines with coal O'r oil, we shall induce them to work on a plain diet of subatomic energy. If that day comes, barges, trucks, and cranes will disappear and a year's sup ply of fuel for a station—thirty grams of water—wills be carried lea tea -cup. Dr, Thomas Johnson states that we were being served by atomic energy in a way we do not realize, "It is a common belief," be said, "that the earth is kept warm by the heat ot the sun. While sunlight comes to- us in great volume, it is not' suf- iicieut to nhniutalu the globe at its pre- sent temperature, Making human habi- tation possible, "The earth is also heated from with. M: We aro being served by the «Is- integation ot atoms below the. surface of the earth.- The radium oras, the potassium group of minerals, and so on, constantly disintegate and give off energy. The known deposits of these disintegrating ores, plus the heat which we receive from the sun, rough- ly approximate to the amount of heat "Several Weeks ago," said. Dr. Comp- ton, "2 noticed, a halo around the moon.. Half an hour later the • halo was ,visibly entailer In diameter and rain began^to fall, The interpretation of such haloes—due to• the diffraction of the moonlight by droplets of water suspended in the air—is well•known. By observing the diameter of the halo we cast estimate, the size of water drops which cause It. .A shrinking halo means a growing drop and hence probable rain." Dr. Compton applied• the same rule to "see" inside the atom. "In a stag- ier manner; he said, "it is possible to find the size of molecules and atoms In a gas by observing the diffraction haloes produced when they are tra- versed by a bean of X-rays. "We substitute X-rays for the moon- light"and, instead of the raindrops or vapour, use helium, argon, neon, or some other gas, The X-ray makes diffraction haloes on the gas just as =penlight makes it on the raindrops. jest as we can estimate the size and position : of the raindrops, we can similarly estimate the 'arm and mai. tion of the electrons. "Accordingly, we may say, whit some confidence, that the aspect of the .problem of atonic structure which is concerned with the distribution of the energy on the earth. •electrons in atoms is finding a satts- "When we speak of nsing the power factory solution," Are You Using Up Your Nervous Energy?

Hawk '.Drips Blood During Wartime Baden-Powell Tells; Remark- able Story of Mummified Bird From Egypt- London—An extraordinary tale 01 an Egyptian mummified• hawk' that drips "blood" during war time was told recently by Lord Baden -:Powell, chief Scout. Lord Baden-Powell sayshe is not superstitious enough to believe . that the hawk really forecasts the coming ofwar, but thinks its prophetic pow- ers are -"an amazing coincidence." Asked to amplify a brief reference he madeto the bird at a recent ban- quet, he an-quet,he said: "The bird; which is in a mummified state, was discovered in 1887 by `a friend 01 mine during ex- cavation work in Egypt: "By comparing it with other things, discovered at the same time, he eon- eluded. oneluded that the. bird was at least 4,000 years .old. "I saw the thing for :the first time the other 'day at a friend's private museum, .It is in a wonderful state of preservation, and although the eyes are gone, :one can still elearly see the beak -and the feathers, "On the shelf where the bird stands, I noticed a dry, brown stain, and When I questioned my friend about it• he told me that about a month be- fore the outbreak of the Boer War the hawk became damp and gently oozed bubbles of this stuff. "All through the campaign this 'sweating' continued, until about a month before the tear ended, when as suddenly and mysteriously as It had begun, the dripping ceased. "But exactly a month before the outbreak of the Great War the bub- bles again appeared, ane the amazing fact is that they again stopped just a mouth before the Armistice."
