EXPERTS IN WOOD.
The Old Violin Makers and the Mate
rial They Used.

The great violin makers all lived
within the compass of $50 years. They
chose their wood from few great tim
bers felled in the south Tyrol and
foated down in rafts-pine and maple,
sycamore, pear and ash. They eX-
amined these to find streaks and veins
and freckles, valuable specifically
when brought out by vanishing.
They learned to tell the dynasty of
the pieces of wood by touching them.
They weighed them, they struck them
and listened to judge how fast or how
slow or how resonantly they would
vibrate in answer to strings. Some
portions of the wood must be porous
and soft, some close of fiber. Just the
right beam was hard to find. When
found, it can be traced all through the
violins of some great master and after
his death in some of his pupils.
The piece of wood was taken home
and seasoned, dried in the hot Brescia
and Cremona sun. The house of Strad-
ivarius, the great master of all, is de-
scribed as having been as hot as an
oven. The wood was there soaked
through and through with sunshine.
In this great heat the oils thinned and
simmered slowly and penetrated far
into the wood until the varnish became
a part of the wood itself.
The old violin makers used to save
every bit of the wood when they found
what they liked to mend and patch and
inlay with it. So vibrant and SO reso-
nant is the wood of good old violins
that they murmur and echo and sing in
answer to any sound where a number
of them hang together on the wall, as
If rehearsing the old music that they
once knew.

Geologic Man of Maine.

Geologic mapping for folio publication
has been begun by the United States geo
logical survey in Maine. The area Sc
this State was the Penobscot bay region,
and during the last season the rock
formations in the towns OF Blnehill,
surry, Penobscot, Brooksyille, Sedgwick,
and Brooklin were examined.
The Bluehill quadrangle, which has al
ready been mapped geographically in CO.
operation with the State OF Maine,
includes a region of geologic and eco
nomic interest. The metamorphic schists,
which are found to occur over large areas,
form the country rock OF the mineraiized
zones which were at one time extensively
prospected for copper and the precious
metals.
Granite OF the best quality is quarried
at number of localities, while more basic
igneous rocks also occur within the area.

the granite quarried makes 1t important
