Walter Kingsley tells of a veteran
dramatic critic of Cincinnati who re-
cently visited New York and told him
that he had never heard of Karl
Kitchen or Odd McIntyre. although
both are Ohio products. I can't be-
lieve that the dramatic critic is such
a veteran, because it seems only a
few years ago that McIntyre was city
editor of the Cincinnati Post and
Dave Tarbell. the publisher of the
Norwood Enterprise. would send me
down to him with a. note that would
read something like this: "Dear Gain

“As changeable as the weather."
The saying is in common usage.
But recent mathematical studies
of the weather. made by the pion-
eers on the frontier of science, show
that the ancient adage does not ex-
press ths situation at all.
In fact. it would be a. great com-
pliment to say anyone was as "steady
as the weather." ‘
Dr. C. G. Abbot. director of the
astrophysical observatory of the
Smithsonian Institution, points out
that in most parts of the world the
mean daily surface temperature of
the air rarely varies more than I
per cent from day to day.
Furthermore. the mean annual
temperature of any one place show-g
hardly any change in thousands of
years. '
Many of the higher food plants
thrive only in certain temperatures.
Wheat. for example. can only be
raised where the mean annual tern.
perature is between 39 and 68 de-
grees. ‘ ‘
But there is no evidence of any
change in the habitant of this or any
other food plant in the last 5000
years. ‘ .
There were great changes in the
for distant past such as the giaciu
periods. But the evidence' shows
that these were slow 'chengee. it
taking more than 5000 years for s.
glacial period to get under way. and
another 6000 years for the earth to
return to normalcy at the cloae of
