Mars may be inhabited The ruddy planet, away in space, may supportia consid- erable population of fantastic, toad- like creatures, brilliantly colored, cu riously developed biologically to cope with rapid extremes of heat and cold, and, it is barely possible, of sufficient intelligence to have buill up a weird civilization in a beautiful country of red, purple, yellow and green lichens. That the earth’s second nearest neighbor in space is capable of sup- porting certain forms of life, but very fantastic forms, is the conclusion of Dr. W. W. Coblenz of the Bureau of Standards, after compiling the first accurate temperature of measure ments on the surface of the planet during its period of approach last Summer. Dr. Coblenz is a mathematician and physicist—not a_ writer of romances. In recently published accounts of his work he offers just facts and figures without deductions, but he provides u wealth of materfal for the more im aginative to work with. Dr. Coblenz suggests tnat if animal life exists on the planet it must be in some form capable of sustaining long periods of drought, since there is it tle water in the atmosphere. This condition could be met by some of the desert creatures on earth such as the horned toads of the Arizona des erts. But they must, in addition, be capable of withstanding rapid changes in tempegature, for Mars is livably warm only while the sun is shining. perature drops nearly 100 degrees. This condition might be met, Dr. Coblenz suggests, by burrowing un derground when sunset comes, or by a biologigeal equipment like that of the torpid grasshopper wasps and ants, such as sometimes are found in 4 benumbed state on warm days in Winter. The possibilities of intelligent are considerably offset by these con- siderations, but not entirely disproved. Life on Mars can only be deduced by considering what life forn® could exist under the same circumstances on earth, and there is the further possi- bility that some form might have de- veloped which ix without counterpart on earth and hence bevond the ima ination of any human being. Life Forms Small. 1f evolution has followed the same course on Mars as it has on earth, local scientists say, the life forms will be small. A creature the size of a {man would be very improbable. The life forms on earth are growing smaller and smaller. The great am phibians of prehistoric times probably ting food for such enormous bodies, and the gendency ever since has been toward Nghter weight. Mars is mil- lions of vears older than the earth, and the probability is that the course rof evolution has been consistent toward smaller life forms. In addition, the planet are small, the vegetation probably being restricted to the type of lichens such as those found on the old lava flows which make up the Arizona desert and the mosses found under Arctic snows. This may be very colorful, however. The Arizona lichens present marvel- ous color combinations. ture developing great intelligenc looked upon with considerable doubt, since from the evolutionary viewpoint on physical changes for its growth, and the amphibian is one of the earli- est of life forms out of the water. Dr. Coblenz himself makes only one assumption, that the existence of plant life in tussocks, either grass or moss, radiation on the surface and low heat conductivity underneath, may ac- count for the high temperatures of the dark areas. Dr. Coblenz says, in a recent ar- ticle in the Scientific Monthly: hour longer than our own. seasons similar to our own, but double the length, and as Summer progressed on the Southern Hemis- phere the thermocouples showed a gradual warming up of the surface, just as we notice a gradual warming of the earth from April to July. But there is « great difference in tempera Mars has on Mars. Even on the equator the noonday temperature of the bright areas, which are probably dry deserts is _but little above freezing.

On this date there was no phase on Mars, that is ay, the whole syrface facing us ghtly illuminated, and these thermocouples showed that the noon. day temperature of the bright regions on’the equator wus about 5 degrees (° (40 degrees F.), while the adjacent dark regions were perhaps up to 15 degrees C. (60 degrees I".). At the same time the temperature of the east limb or sunrise edge was 45 degrees ( ( 50 degrees F.) and the sunset The tempera polar regions degrees the ture of the {lluminated was down to - degrees C. ( — 80 degrees F.), which is not much dif ferent from our Arctic regions. The temperature of the night side probably drops below — 80 degrees (. These extreme daily temperature varfations are no doubt owing 10 a rare atmos phere; but the, to indi cate that this atmosphere is more extensive than was heretofore sup. posed to be present on Mars “It will no doubt be realized that these temperature v es were e: b. lished under great difficulties, and that it was quite an accomplishment to obtain an sonably accurate measurements on the pol Hence, the numerical values may not fit the calc ted alues for different parts of the surface urately as we might desire. Tha the alculated temperature gradient from to the poles may not be as great as odserved: but this will be merely another proof of the presence of an appreciable atmosphere on Mars. However, as already stated, tempera tures of to —70° C. occur in our polar regions. Hence. it should not be surprising to find equally low in’ the Martian polar regions. Nights Deadly “What about life Mz 4 depends upon our viewpoint; whether we think of tropical vegetation or the mosses and lichens which thrive under our Arctic snows nd in this latitude during the mild days of January to March, but which shrivel up in Sum- mer. These measuremnets show that for a few hours at Aconday on the equator of M: the surface tempera- ture is not unlike that of New York or Philadelphin on some bright duv in March and April. But consider the exceedingly cold nights.

It is, of course well known that the horned toud accustomed to drought and has abo three months of activity during the Summer. However, it was a surprise to find that even our common garden toad can adapt himself to dry cor ditions. I saw one above ground n the observatory on the only really wet night we had in July.
