feature OF the exhibit was located. These
were nothing more nor less than Il number
OF mirror frames. There were In all sema
seven or eight of these. one to the front
Of the tank. two TO the left and three TO
the right. Back OF tho tank was a frame,
whose exposed surface would seem to equal
the combined surfaces Of all tie other

The construction OF the mirrors with
which these frames were fitted up proved.
On closer examination, to be different from
anything OF the kind ever before heard Of.
IN The big frame, for example. 20 which
Doctor CalveT led the way. instead OF Il sin

naturally have been expected. there were a
great number Of small mirrors set IN a
series Of rows one above another. These
mirrors, which were ouiy four by six inches
IN size, exposed to the sun Il perfectly fat

vcX. 1t was found by a simple count that
there were twouty-seven rows OF thirty
mirrors each In the entire frame, or SO mir

great question which confronted any one
working in my field was that Of arranging
the TetlcctOrs Of the suns rays so that any
number Of them could be concentrated on
