The Water Mill Proverb and Life’s Lasting Lesson

An old poem argues the water mill will never grind again with water that has passed. It uses the image of harvest, time fleeting, and a warning to seize love and deeds now. The voice recalls neglected joys, unspoken words, and the value of living rightly before time ends.

Turkish Cruelty Exposed in Servian Horrors at Velixi-Izvor

A Celgrade letter relays brutal Turkish acts after the Velixi Izvor defeat. Servians report mutilation of wounded and murder of prisoners, with officers among captives. Torture described, hands cut off, carried on poles in Turkish camps to incite horror. Officers say many will die by suicide when captured. European civilization is blamed for tolerating such butcheries.

Sunlight Pressure Measured in Foot-Pounds

Prov. Creak Maxwell notes the mean energy per cubic foot of sunlight is about 8.82e-8 foot pounds and the mean pressure per square foot is the same fraction. A surface facing the light would feel this pressure on the illuminated side, pushing it away. Calculations yield a pressure of about two and a half pounds per square mile, with a large gap to the fifty seven tons found experimentally, a common gap between theory and experiment.
