It's hard for an astronomer to become permanently out of style. In a paper re cently contributed to the proceedings of the American Philosophical Society Mr. T. J. J. See declares that the depth of the Milky Way decidedly exceeds a million light-years, and substantially accords with the profundity of interstelLar space as estimated by Sir William Herschel 110 years ago. The late Prof. Ncweomb, as well as other cotemporary astrono mers, held that the estimates of Sir Wil liam were far too great. They believed that he put the remotest star from 100 to 1.000 times too far away. Now, however, modern science swings back to the older view. Fashions In mstronomy may change more slowly than fashions in clothes, but both seem to move in. cycles. Snmirar Schedule?
