DANCING APPROVED BY ENGLISH BISHOP Blackpool Holiday Crowds Pleased With Address Of Anglican Prelate Blackpool, Eng.-- In the midst of the merrymaking in. the great ballroom of Blackpool Tower---one of the great carnival places of the country--Ilast evening, the close of bank holiday, the music stopped and a clergyman mounted to the sidé of the orchestra conductor. The clergyman was right Rev. Percy Herbert, Bishop of Blackburn, who has been conducting an Ang- lican Church mission on the famous beach here for ten days. His Lordship told the young men in flannels and the girls in all the color of summer dresses how pleas- ed he was to see them enjoying themselves so heartily and inno- cently, and the young people show- ed how unmistakably glad they were to find the Bishop interested in their pleasures. Then the band started once more and it was 'on with the dance" Blackpool, one of the greatest holiday resorts in the country, with its huge pleasure palaces, introduc- ed community dancing many years before this pastime became as pop- ular as it is now, and for many years the Church of England's mis- sion on the sands has been re- ceived with pleasure by the thou- sands of visitors of great value.

CONFIDENCE GAME HAS MANY VICTINS Flappers and Business Men Easily Duped, Records Show i METHODS EXPOSED Visions of Huge Mining Profits Lure Many Plungers to Doom London, Aug 10.-- This is the season of the year when rich men blessed with a sense of big busi- ness are fleeced by crooks playing the confidence game, which js as old as crime. Scotland Yard is bored during the sumer months by two types of victims. One is the eternal flap- per who, having accepted the in- vitation of a motor ride from a strange man who had a cinema face complaing that she had been left stranded on a country road miles away from home because her gent- leman friend was no gentleman. The other regular victim is the astute business man who has been beaten on a deal by a confidence man who specialises in human na' ture. : Magistrates and lawyers say they cannot understand why a business man, a man of the world, can be duped by such an obvious fraud. But the fraud is not obvious until it is 'exposed. Expenses Heavy The confidence men who are now concentrating on London are not obvious. They spend hundreds of dollars in preliminary expenses be- fore they make their coup. Their hook has a golden bait, and the poor fish swallows the gilded hook. There are many variations of the confidence trick, but all are based on the human desire to get some- thing for nothing. In plain words the besetting sin of avarice gives the confidence man his chance "Patsy," one of the cleverest confidence men known, but not so far arrested by the police, plays the religious game. Having traced and placed his real dupe he drops a rosary in the street. The dupe, who is a Roman Catholic, picks up and restores the emblem, and the confidence man who oozes ben- evolence, after several dinners and lunches revals h!: mission, which 1s to bestow, say $100,000 in charl- ties. The dupe, he says, is the very man he has been looking for, and on him he prsses a big wad of notes, "But," says the confidence man, "although I trust, 1 must in jus- tice be sure that you are a man of substance. I mean, you must be the sort of man who has a recognized standing, a man whose cheque will be honored at the bank." The dupe, holding, as he thinks, securities for a fortune, places real money to the extent of thousands ip the hands of the confidence man who leaves him with a few hun- dred pounds of good money and the remainer "home made' money. Numerous Tales Another profitable confidence trick requires a lot of capital. A rich man from say Chicago is found on the boat from New York, traced and cultivated in the cafes of Paris, on the hills and plains of Switzerland, on the shores of Deau- ville, and in the wine-like sea of the Lido. Money is spent like water by the confidence men, who, having se- cured the friendship of their dupe meet him in Paris or in London.

CHICAGO PRODUCE FUTURES Chicago, Aug. 9.--November egg futures worked higher on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange today in line with light receipts, a firm spot, and a slackening of the move- ment into storage in the four principal mar- kets. The figures still showed more eggs stored than a year ago, but the excess to- day was only around 500 cases. The egg advance in the future was $30 a car. De- cember butter futures tended to weaken in spite of a steady spot and smaller storage than a year ago, in the four markets, but growing receipts were a depressing influence and the close was $24 a car under the pre- ceding settlement, Two market receipts--Butter, today, 26,788; last: year, 21,079.

Still another popular and profit. able confidence trick is based on racing. The confidence men tell their selected victim that they have found a way to beat time. The dupe is persuaded to invest, say $25 on the "system." The "system" wins. Hé puts on $50, and again he is allowed to win, He is convinced that he is on a good thing and he plunges, and the rogues gat away with more than $500 profit, Daily Event This sort of thing gpes on every day in London during the season. The confidence men rarely come before the courts because the vie: tims are too ashamed to prose- cute, Scotland Yard detectives know their men and very charming men they are. Thrilling it is to stand at other, with the passwor "Same again." END OF THE EARTH WIL SURELY COME Sir Richard Gregory Tells How World May Pass London, Aug. 10.--The period during which life, in one form or another, has existed upon the earth is more than a thousand million years. Man with a human form and human attributes, historic and prehistoric, can be traced back for about half a million years, and if we accept his anthropoid origin, the roots of his genealogical tree will be found in rocks two million years old. These numbers are so vast in comparison with the span of man's life of threescore years and ten that they seem to most people to approach the infinite. Throughout the universe, however, things are continually changing, and every star in the sky is either rising to maturity or sinking to decay. So it is with the earth, one of the children of the sun. It was born with the other planets of the solar system through a catastrophe experienced by the sun in the long- distant past: it may go on for sonie millions of years yet, but the end will surely come, whether it be due to natural causes or by accident. Colliding Stars Accidents do happen in the heav- ens as well as upon the eartn. From time to time, for example, new stars blaze out in the sky, and though the cause of their sudden appearance is not definitely kuown, the most probable explanation is that they represent the result of collisions in space. Eleven years ago, on June 5, 1918, a new star of this kind ap- peared in the constellation or the Eagle. What has previously been a star so faint that a good tele- scope was required to see it at all became in four days as bright as the most brilliant star in the sky. In this time its brightness in- creased about fifty thousand times, and then the star faded again in a Jew months to its former obscur- y. What happened to that star might also happen to the 'sun, which is the star of our solar sys- tem, and such a cataclysm would without doubt utterly destroy all life upon the earth. The sun with the earth ana the other planets is travelling towards unexplored regions of space at the rate of about eight hundred thou- sand miles a day. We know the point towards which it is moving, but we do not know what is be- tween us and the apex of the sun's way. . In certain parts of the sky there are black patches which seem to be immense clouds of cosmic mat- ter obscuring stars or other lumin- ous bodies. In comparison with our solar system these clouas are so large that they are like the whole earth by the side of a pea. It is possible that in the course of time we shall meet one of these clouds or a dark star, of which there are many, in our journey with the sun through space, and if we do, other worlds will see a new star appear, and our world will come to an end. Long before the actual collision the influence of the mass we were approaching would be shown by disturbances .in the movements of the planets, and as these accumu- lat year by year it would be, realiz- ed that the fate of the.earth was sealed. The chances of such. a meeting are small, but are real neverthe- less, just as are the chances of be- ing killel in a railway journey. Who can say what is before us when we are being taken into the blackness of space day by day at the rate of more than 500 times that of the swiftest express train. We may not have to wait, how- ever, until we are carried into a cosmic cloud in outer space or col- lide with a dark star. From time to time 'the sun pulls into our sys- tem solid masses of matter, some of which might eventually cross the earth's track at the same time as the earth. Encounters With Comets Most of the large comets 'which have appeared have been captured in this way by the attraction of the sun and the planet Jupiter. Ex- actly what the nucleus of the head of a comet is cannot definitely be said, but in all probability it con- sists of a collection of solid parti- cles which may be the size of small marbles or of footballs, or even larger. The total mass of a comet can be anything from one hundred-thou- + sandth to one 'ten-thousandth the mass of the earth. Tr a bar with a detectivejon one side and an international cfgok on the | MORE Nearly all of a comet's substance is concentrated in the nucleus, and this may have a diameter of about a couple of thousand miles--say a quarter the diameter of the earth --or as in Halley's periodic comet, which wag visible in 1910, of about five hundred miles. An encounter of the earth with the nucleus of a comet would mean the end of the world. Such a col- lision fs not probable, but it is not impossible. We passed through the tail of Halley's comet in 1910, and also through the tail of another Somet in 1861, but that is a very eren thing from ssin; through the head. bhi The tail of a large comet, though it looks very alarming, really con- sists of extremely attenuated gas, and no effect whatever is noticed when it envelops the earth. If, however, we hit the nucleus of a comet the friction and colli- sion with the solid material in it would. probably produce so much heat that all forms of life would be destroyed, and our world would be transformed into a barren rock. By the laws of probabiiity or chance the earth must have had collisions with comets in the course of its history, and others wii oc- cur in the future. There is a close relationship be- tween comets and swarms of mete- ors or shooting stars. Brilliant dis- plays of shooting stars occur at def- inte Deriods, the most noteworthy of whic! n recent years w, 1866. y . id A shooting star is usually a par- ticle of cosmic dust which enters the atmosphere surrounding the earth, and is burnt up by the heat due to friction against the air. The bright streak across the xy re- cords its own destruction. There are, however, many rire- balls or meteors which are large enough to penetrate the torpedo net of our atmosphere, and they fall upon the earth as stouy or metallic masses known as meteor- ites, hundreds of which are pre- served in museums all over the world. Celestial Bombs In the year 1908 a swarm of solid celestial bombs of this kind, weighing altogether thousands of tons, swept down upon the prime- val forest of Siberia, in the prov- ince of Yenisei, and devastated an area many miles in diameter. Had it struck a city instead of a sparse- ly populated district the fate of the inhabitants would have been that of Sodom and Gomorrah. Another example of such a bom- bardment is afforded by a remark- able crater three-quarters of a mile across and two hundred yards deep in north-eastern Arizona. There is litle doubt that this cavity marks the place where a large meteorite struck the warth. probably in historic time, and if we had come into. contact with a large collection of such solid masses In- stead of one or a few, the earth would have been reduced to the dead condition of the moon, upon which thousands of simMar vast craters are visible. There are other bodies in the so- lar system with which the earth could have an accidental but a dis- astrous meeting. In January, 1931, for example, an asteriod called Eros--one of a group of some thousands which eir- culate around the sun between the planets Mars and Juplter--will come within a distance of sixteen million miles of the earth, that is, about two thousand times the earth's diameter. If We Were Hit Tt is only fifteen miles across. and there is no need to fear that it will come into contact with the earth, but on the other hand, no - HEAT YOUR HOME THE DIXON WAY i Now Is The Time to Fill Your Coal Bin With 2 That Good : Jeddo Coal - Solvay Coke And All Other Good Fuel ia FOR THE one can say it is impossible for this or another asteroid to strike the earth and thus bring about the ac- tual destruction of life upon the world. Even if there was no end-on col- lision, the near approach of any such object to the earth would cause tidal and other effects on the surface and in the interior which would bring disaster to most parts of the world. The moon itself was once part of the earth and was separated from it by tidal action caused by the sun. The depression of the earth's crust now covered by the Pacific Ocean was probably its birthplace. At that time the earth and the moon rotated as one body in a day of less than six hours. The moon then slowly receded from its par- ents, and with its increasing dis- tance there was a corresponding in- crease in the length of the day. Looking into the future, the moon will eventually come back close to the earth, and according to Dr. Harold Jeffreys, wilt taen 'break up to form a ring of frag- ments around the earth like those encircling the planet Saturn. While this tidal evolution is go- ing on, the sun itself will be slow- ly. changing and will finally cease to shine. If it runs through its life's courss steadily it may be éx- pected to light up the earth for a period at least as long in the fu- ture as it has done in the past.
