Ice ages have an interest for the business man. as well as for the student and the geologist. Even 1 a slight shift in the present alignment of storm tracks and ocean currents, such as we saw in oar recent drought years, could have a serious effect upon agriculture and land values, if it Is to be permanent, and not of a cycle nature. WEATHER QUESTIONS Q.—You say that the moon has no air, but I cannot conceive of a 1 world not having air. How is it possible that the earth has air and the moon has not’ (A.H M l A.—Astronomers are quite sure that there is no air on the moon. The question of whether a planet does or does not have air depends on Its gravity. Every gas has what is called its molecular velocity, which is the speed that its molecules travel. This speed is high. The earth's gravity can hold gases ! which travel under seven miles per I second. Only hydrogen and helI ium move faster than this, and these tUo gases escape from the earth. But the power of gravity on the moon is only one-sixth of that of the earth or not quite IJ4 miles per second. As all our common gases move faster than this, they have all flown away from the moon, leaving that world to be forever barren and airless. Q.—Will spring be early or late j in Iowa? (C.M.P.) A.—Warm weather will probably come early in May. Q.—Why do fogs hang heavier ’ over Lake Erie during April and [October? (H.C.W.) A.—When cold air meets warm water in October we have fog. When warm air meets cold water in April we also have fog. *THE CENTER OF THE EARTH In response to many requests i Prof Maxwell today repeats Uae ; free offer of this Illustrated monograph In word and pictare Prof Maxwell reveals the I amazing structure of our Earth 1 from the crust on which we live | to its red hot. fluid core A monograph of absorbing interest to everyone.

Release Tliaelinann and Nlemoeller” (Ernest Thaeltnann, German communist leader, and the Rev. Martin Niemoeller, leader of the German opposition protestant church). Several hundreds on the sidewalks between the German embassy and the foreign office hissed and repeated “out with Ribben-
trop” as hla car returned to the > embassy. Informed sources said Ribbon- ■ trop was concerned because the. Austrian Independence plebiscite coincides with his absence from Berlin. The diplomatic correspondent of the Star said the turn of events in Austria had taken the German foreign minister completely by surprise, adding: “It is of far more immediate importance to him than the prospective Anglo-German talks.” There were reports in usually well informed quarters that Ribbentrop had instructions to tell Lord Halifax that Germany was likely before long to try to get the Czechoslovakian government to grant a substantial measure of autonomy to the 3.300.000 Germans ‘ in Czechoslovakia. The report was that Germany songht to get Great Britain to appease probable French opposition and to ask France to advise Czechoslovakia that the French government would not offer objection.
