Saxe, for the plaintiff, $200 in the action of Kach- adoor Boyajian against Paul Der- derian, A size, mass, cd the plaintiff. | By Acting Judge | 352 in the Grain & Coal company against Lu- i kasz tka [ sented the plaintiff, perature, their age, evolution an future Jife. As a result, our esti- mation of the universe of which we form a part has increased until we now speak of heavenly bodies a0 far off that it takes light at least a million years to reach eur eyes, We now talk in familiar terms of tem- peratures amounting to millions of degrees at the conter of a star, while the life history of a star runs into | billions of years, The physical con- dittons with which we are familiar on our puny carth fade into insig- nificance when compared with those demanded by modern astronomy.” The observational work on which this scicntific progress depends was nearly all done in America. Deter- mining the distances of stars has been of fundamental value, Dr, Mitchell says, for progress was im- jossible without a knowledge of the distance that separates earth from the stars. Fifteen years ago the distances of hardly more than 100 stars were known, but today 2,000 separate stars have been measured by the trigonometric method alone, while 3,000 distances have been de- termined by spectroscopic means. Alfred TeWitt, A Coolidge Runs “The only direct method of meas- uring stellar distances,” says the astronomer, it the same s that adepted by the civil engineer in meaguring the width of a river that cannot be traversed. The only base line availahle for the astronomer fg the distance across the carth’s orbif of 186,000,000 The stellar distances are <o great that they are | usually not expressed in miles but | in unita of the length that light travels in a vear at 186,000 miles a second. the so-called light year. | The astronomer prefers to use the angle at the subtended by the distance from the earth to the sun this shiall angle. expressed in see onds, being called the par ) There's a Coo'id choose to run in 1928.
