IDENTICAL CHANGES 



ized substance, as air, for instance, the substance 

 itself will be changed to some extent, and the study 

 of inertia will be complicated because of these 

 changes. 



But any organized body, moving through strictly 

 void matter, must push before it every plane layer 

 of primary sphere that the atoms of the moving 

 body encounters. 



And these spheres cannot slip in behind the 

 moving body, for there is no room to slip, and if 

 it were possible that the spheres could get behind 

 the moving body, then the force would be equalized 

 in front and behind. 



Therefore, the P. S. that are pushed out of their 

 place must move on in the same universal plane 

 until absorbed into some new forming body, or to 

 the infinite. 



And the P. S. that occupy the vacated space of 

 the moving body must come directly from the in- 

 finite or from the disorganizing of substance into 

 void matter. 



And that flow of void matter must continue, 

 even after the first impulse is given, as long as the 

 motion continues. 



While this theory of motion and inertia seems 

 on first presentation to be a mere pipe dream, it 

 is nevertheless supported by many observed facts. 

 And it seems possible that another Newton might 

 prove the theory as the theory of gravitation was 

 proven. The movement of spheres in plane layers 

 is within the scope of geometrical demonstration,
