WILLIAMS BAY, Wis. October —Runaway and new variable stars that periodically become bright and then faint are being discovered by Prof. 3. Ross of the Yerkes Observatory as a result of the study of phic plates in the ob- y's files. ~ Various fields of stars, largely in the Milky Way, were photographed some 20 years ago by the late Prof. . E. Barnard, who used tha Bruce photographic tele- scope. This instrument is a camera with several lenses, the largest 10 inches in diameter, and it is mounted as to follow the st in their apparent daily motion across the sky Thus these photographs show the sky 1s it appeared about two decades ago. ‘o discover what has happened in the interval, Prof. Ross is comparing them with similar photographs which he is making of the same regions through the Bruce telscope. Rare Instrument Used. To compare two picture: each showing thoiusands of tiny dots representing stars, all but half a dozen of which e precisel the same, and to locate the ones that have moved or rwise changed in the interval would seem like a hope- lessly complicated t but the use 1 ingenious instrument known as microscope makes it re tively easy. This consists of what might be called a double periscope. One photographic plate is placed at each end. By osclllating a small lever the observer can see first one and then the other In as rapid suc- cession as he desires. The stars that are the same on each plate undergo no change in appe ice, but if one has moved between the two ex- posures it seems to dance to and fro as the lever is moved. If a star has varfed in light, the image dot seems to grow larger and smaller, while if a new star has burst out, its image will appear and disappear. So far, Prof. Ross has examined pairs of plates in this way and has found more than 150 rapidly moving, or “proper motion” stars, and 40 ables ihat were not known before. f the proper motion stars are | moving faster than two seconds of arc jay which in about 900 years would i take them over a distance equal to the | mwoon’s apparent diameter in the pid, but the ar in the sky known to , which was also discover .led by Prof. Barnard, is moving at | only about five times this speed. And of the countless legions of stars only about 200 have been known up to the present that move faster than second of arc a year very Measure Motion On But these plates only measure mo. | tion across the sky, and if a star hap- | pens to be moving directly to or from the earth. its motion will not be ap- | parent.

LLOYD GEORGE PRESSING LAND TENURE CAMPAIGN Scores Waste of Great Tracts to Provide Month’s Pleasure for Rich Strangers. By the Associated Press. LONDON, October 17.—Mr. Lloyd George is carrying his campaign for the liberals, new land program, which advocates a system of landholding on a cultivating tenure, to all parts of the country. Speaking last week at Inver- ness, Scotland, the former prime min- ister made a scathing reference to Jarge tracts of land in Scotland which instead of being tilled are being de- voted to one month's pleasure a year for rich strangers. “These strangers,” he said, ‘“are drawn from breeds that never wore tartans and couldn’t stand kilts'in De- cember without central heating.” It is stated that Mr. Lloyd George intends to spend £80,000 (about $400,- 000) in his land campaign to insure it the widest possible appeal. The new land policy, while promulgated by the liberal party’s land committee, still awaits the blessing of the Earl of As- quith and Oxford, the former H. H. Asquith, who still shares with Mr. Lloyd George the leadership of the party. Cedar for Coffins. To make coffins that would with- nd the weather conditions in China has been the aim of the Chinese for ‘many vears.
