L. Helrmnn, county agricultural agent. The war situation makes the control of fires of all kinds necessity.

The closing of many COC camps means less labor tjvnilahle for fire fighting. thorltles who Issue permits will he more careful than ever. The date when burning permits are needed varies with the location and season. hut the law says 'when there is no snow on the ground In periods of extreme fire hazard, permits to burn are not given. Accurate records of temperature, rainfall, pressure, and humidity give Information that show forestry and conservation experts when such times occur.

When fire hazards are at a minimum, permits are given by representatives of the department of conservation and within or near forest service areas by representatives of the U. S. Forest Service. When burning permits are issued, local tower men are notified of the location so they will not send men to put out the fire when smoke Is seen In such a location. In recent years, an excellent record has been made among farmers and other rural of the Upper Peninsula in requesting burning permits.

Hardly a fire has been traced to being started by a person without a burning permit. Conservation people point out that fire prevention protects the property of rural residents as well as saves the forests. In Schoolcraft county, burning permits may be obtained from the following: Ranger Chase, James Tebo, Tom Mellon, Harold Peters and Herbert Popour. If you do not know the proper authority in your community, ask your county agricultural agent and he will tell you where to get a fire burning permit.

The Palms-Book state park, site of the Kitchi-tiki-pi Spring, is less of a problem to the state in view of the fact that the state pays the salary of a caretaker only during the summer months and actually receives in return more money than it pays out for caretaker's salary. This is made possible because the caretaker pays to the state a 10 per cent commission on all sales at the concession stands. The In past years has more than offset salary payments.

and Mrs. Alfred LaValle Our solar system, thst is the sun and the 9 planets comprising It, is part of galaxy. Our galaxy is made up from 50 to 100 billion most of them sll larger than our sun. This galaxy is In the shape of a disc or emery wheel and has a diameter of approximately 200.000 littht years and a thickness of about 7.0o0 light years. If this disc or galaxy w.

re considered like the dial of watch our solar system would he located in the galaxy at about the point of the second hand. The position of the earth In summer time is so that see billions of stars through the thickest part of the disc, and in winter time through the thinnest pait of tho disc. This disc-like arrangement stars when viewed from the earth makes the Milky Way, which In summer time appears denser because we are viewing it through the greatest distance of the disc and in winter time the Milky Way appears less dense because we view the stars through a lesser distance. Although our galaxy is 200,000 light years in diameter and 7,000 light, years in thickness it is only one of billions of similar galaxies. Already about a half million galaxies have been catalogued and viewed through a telescope and it is almost certain that when the new 200-Inch telescope in in operation an additional half-billion iralaxies will be brought under control that is observed, identified and catalogued.

Despite the fact that there aru billions of stars In our own galaxy and also In the other galaxies In space, every star is at least four light years or 24.000,000.000,000 miles apart, so there plenty of room bet ween the st us. It Is estimated that the distance of known space (some astronomers believe there Is a limit to space while others asgume spate to be unlimited), as we are able to calculate with the telescopes now available, is about If) quin- tilllon miles or 3.600,000,000 light years in diameter and ts ex panding at the rate of about 14.000 miles per second. That is. the universe is spreading out in all directions, like the bursting of a bomb, the rate of 1 4.000 miles per second To givt some conception of the respective magnitude and distances of the heavenly bodies the speaker made the following illustration. The earth is represented by a tiny mustard speck.

On the same scale the sun would appear as a baseball some forty feet away from the mustard seed The eiirht other planets of our solar system will be represented by particles ranging from Invisible particles to small mar- light years from US. The star Antares In the constellation Scorpions is about 4o0 times larger in diameter than our sun and about 4,000 times as bright. Antares Is shout 110 light years from us. The speaker revealed how one may find different star sand con stellatlons by locstlng the Big Dipper (Ursa Msjor) and then following the various star groupings around the celestial sphere. He told of the mythologies! origination of the names of various constellations aud the story be-j hind such namings.

Andromeda, the chained lady, was the daughter of Cassiopeia, Cassiopeia was the vain for which she wax punished by being made to sit In a chair for all time watched over by her husband Cepheus. Orion, the mighty hunter. Is the most beautiful constellation In the northern hemisphere. The hunter Is followed by two dogs. Canls Major and Canis Minor.

The star Sirius In Canis Major Is the brightest star In the heavens The Pleiades, according to mythology, were the seven beautiful daughters of Atlas and pursued by the hunter Orion ware changed into doves by the in order to allow them to escape They are now seen In the constellation Taurus.
