TO WATCH A PLANT GROW.
Experiments to Show If 1t Can Be Re
VeaIed by Moving Pictures.

Experiments tc Show If 1t Can Be Re
VeaIed by Moving Pictures.
DR.. Henry Lehman of Philadelphia,
inventor, chemist and physician. has
become interested in moving pictures
and now IS experimenting in bis lab
oratory to get series OF pictures of q
growing plant covering a period of
seven days. which. when thrown on
the screen by the moving picture ma
chine, will show the development of
the plant from a bud until 1t is full
grown. By reversing his string OF
pictures a fantastic picture of a full
grown plant shriveling into a small
bud is made.
In his experiments DR.. Lehman is
trying to produce a picture of the
workings of nature too slow for the
human eye to catch. For this he is
using the pictures of a growing plant.
The other thing that DR.. Lehman Is
working for is to get individual pic
lures of the workings of nature too
rapid for the human eye to catch.
For instance, in watching an explosion
the eye gets a composite picture Of
smoke and air filed with flying debris.
With his moving picture camera, which
takes pictures at the rate Of twelve in
one second, DR.. Lehman is able to get
the development OF the explosion from
the first little pun of smoke until the
gases causing the trouble explode. By
running these pictures in his machine
at the usual rate of speed the COM
posite picture that the eye sees is
shown. BY running his film slowly
through the machine each step in the
explosion, too rapid for the naked eye.

There are too many boys and girls in the country and city. more in the latter than in the former, who are prone to look upon work as be- heath them. There are thousands of them on the threshold of matur- itY who retain the same views and habits which found encouragement in their earlier years. What be- comes of this class of people? Some of them awaken and after a desperate struggle overcome the habit and learn to work, to save and to prepare for the inevitable rainy day. Many of them, how ever, drift and drift until they be- come acceptable recruits in the hobo army Then they speedily reach the conclusion that things are mighty unequal in this whrld; that the advantages are all with the rich. and that a poor man has no show.
