WONDERFUL MODEL OF
STRAUS4URG CLOCK

In the Tecbnical museum of Sgd
ney. Australia, is a working model OF
the famous Strasburg clock, which
has been running for twenty years.
The medieval original is considered
one of the wonders of the world. Mr..
Richard b Smith conceived the idea
Of making a model OF this clock. He
began the task on January 26, 1887,
the ninty-ninth anniversary of the
discovery OF Australia. his native
country. and completed 1t at the end
OF 1889.
The work is all the more remark
able. because Mr.. Smith has never
seen the original Strasburg clock and
could find no accurate description Of
the mechanism The books simply
told him what functions the clock
performed. and he set about the task
OF building a clock which would por-
form all the functions of the original
and others in addition. For that rea-
son the operative mechanism OF Mr.
Smiths clock probably differs from
that Of the Strasburg clock. Every
part OF the mechanism. as well as the
outer case with the exception of the
carvings and paintings, was made by
Mr. Smith himself.
The Strasburg case is built of mar
BILE and stands sixty feet high The
case of the model is constructed Of
cedar and is twelve feet high In
