Photographs also will be taken of the sky in the region of the sun in search of any stray comet and also of the mythical planet Vulcan, which some astronomers have asserted has its orbit so close to the sun that it can be seen only during an eclipse. The existence, of such a planet is doubted by most astronomers, however. Besides th? staff from Yerkes observatory, other astronomers are planning to work at the Denver observatory.

Among them are Prof. A. V. Turner of the College of the City of Xew York, Professor Schlcssinger of Allecheny observatorv, Professor Jleifield of Dennison Universitv and Tmfessor Moore of the United States Bureau of Mines. 1 2A eclipse of the sun forecast to occur on June 8 has been postponed for one hour.

Go into anv of the clubs that fill Pall Mall and Piccadilly at 7 o'clock in the evening and you are certain to find a few of them making their hasty dinner before falling in for polico duty.

For myself, I have never quite understood how I secured admission to this remarkable detachment.

BEAUTIFY YOUR Why We Don't Deal in "Special Discount" Tires "W-QI one tPs Good year Service Station Dealers listed below deals in "special discounts" or like fictitious atf tractions to induce our customers to buy. We know that such practices are bad business both for ourselves and for our patrons; that they undermine confidence, and that they almost invariably result in dissatisfaction and disappointment for both parties. We sell tires of the highest quality only, at a price based on their actual value and including a legitimate margin which will enable us to give the helpful service necessary to secure maximum mileage from such tires.

We know that tires of lesser quality, or lack of the kind of service with which we follow every would in the end cost our customers far more than they pay now. When a dealer offers you a "special discount" to get you to buy a tire, you may fairly oe sure that he is doing one of two things. Either he is offering you a tire on which he, himself, gets a special discount from its maker, or he is withholding from you the helpful and intelligent service that every good tire should have. In the one case the quality of the tire is lowered at its source by compromised manufacture; in the other the tire is handicapped in its capacity for service by neglect. It will pay you to remember these things the next time you are offered a "special discount" on a tire, or any similar inducement which looks like something for nothing.
