HIS First Test,

Mr. Woods first experiment was with a
screen ABOUT 10 by 10 inches In dimensions.
He covered it with gold foil, because. as he
says. 1t was the Only metal he could then
obtain as substitute for the aluminium
employed by Tesla 1t was a decided inn
provement- He gave his hand a generous
exposure ander the screen. and no tll-ef
fects were experienced. Placing the screen
Within six inches of IL, he failed to note the
heating sensation which he nearly always
experienced previously when exhibiting
his skull without the screen.
The natural result of his discovery is that
Mr. Woods has received numerous letters
congratulating him upon his success. The
letters he received are not exclusively from
American scientists. Some have come from
Europe, all drawn out by the publication
in Journal devoted to the advancement OF
electrical science of a description OF his
process He claims no originality In the
matter. explaining that he had accomplished
rotn1ng which was not the direct result of
Mr.. Tesla's already published results" his
experiments being merely notifications of
Tesla's methods. Among the first, how

Gus building on York Square corner.
Never in the history OF the school has
there been such display of the remark
able manual training and such splendid
exercises of well adopted talent as shown
by the pupils. The art department
covers wider field than ever before and
shows artistic skill in charcoal, ink and
water colors. The pose drawings were
extremely fine and showed great origi-
nality and ability. Specimens of fine
wood carving by both boys and girls
were especially attractive and included
chairs, center tables, music racks, photo
frames, etc., elegant in finish and de-
sign. The venetian iron work, was de-
cidedly interesting and the subject of
much compliment. The largest piece
was music rack on the top of which
was an artisticaliy wrought Tyre. There
were lamps Of all sorts, picture frames.
umbrella holders, book racks, etc., all in
curious and unique designs. The sew
ing department was fine, with some
really exquisite costumes that might
puzzle the heads of many older dress
makers. In the center Of the hall was
displayed several tables of tempting eat
ibIes that showed how efficiently the
girls had been taught the art of cooking.
The electricians Of the school exhibited
a .20-horse power motor of their own
manufacture and gave many original il
Illustrations of it's use and how they con-
structed it. Specimens of useful and
ornamental room articles from the fOrg-
ing room and blacksmith shop were also
shown as well as the cabinet and car
penters, all excellent models and ex-
ecuted with remarkable workmanship.
The penmanship, geometrical drawings,
plans of surveying and civil engineering
were worthy of much merited praise as
we'll as every department of the manual
section of the institution, which is very
complete and of the highest order. It is
exceedingly interesting to drop in and
the big building ALA work. The en-
bryonic blacksmiths, wood engravers,
electricians, artists, dressmakers, around
with their working clothes and so profit
ably employed, although it must be con-
sdered all these clever things seen at
the exhibition are made by the pupils
after school hours and that the manual
work does not in the least interfere with
the Irregular duties sof the high school.

a lovely seaside resort Eof Los Angeles.
On the way we passed through the great
grain ranch of Senator Jones. Fields of
wheat, oats and barley on either side of
the track extended as far as the eve
could see. The agent of the senator,
was in the car and gave me many facts
with reference to grain growing here.
He showed me one tract which he said
was sowed in February, Gone month too
late,) and which he said would yield but
half crop. ! called 1t a fine field of
wheat. Oats grow wild here as there is
no frost sufficient to kill them, nothing
but thorough tillage can keep them out
of the wheat fields. On the north side
of the track the combined harvester
drawn by 20 horses, was running. This
cuts Is feet in width and not only cuts
but thrashes, cleans and sacks the grain
at one operation. The sacks are thrown
off ready for the wagon and as there is
no rain here at this season they can lie
upon the ground Iuntii the farmer is
ready to remove them. The agent said
they were harvesting 40 acres per day.
Santa Monica is situated onshigh ground,
some go fleet above the Pacific Ocean.
There is no harbor here nothing but an
open roadstead with a sandy beach upon
which the surf constantly beats with a
terrific roar. The thought occurred to
US that il Balboa had discovered the
Pacific at this point he would not have
dared to venture into the surf in order to
take possession in the name of shis king,

his buckler and sword. About one ana
one half miles northwesterly a Spite
wharf extends into the sea for nearly

Not many OF the summer guests had

that time. was surprised to think
that Uncle Sam had been asked to build
a harbor here. In my humble opinion if
he undertakes the job it will result in
utter failure. We were told that vessels
frequently had to stop loading and put
to sea for safety. A fine place this to
undertake to build breakwaters, but
lovely for an outing. In my nextI will
describe the chamber of commerce, etc.
