CHEMIST EXPLAINS
CHROMATIC MYSTERY
Why Some Glass Changes
Color in Sunlight and
Other Does Not

Gf you viii go out in East Ell Paso
and look about in the trash thrown
out on the vacant lots YOU will find
a great many pieces Of shattered glass.
If you look carefully you will see that
a very curious thing Is true of these
many bits OF worthless crystal; that
almost every one is of a pinkish shade
some being of a delicate tint while
others show a decided violet color.
But there is one exception: you will
find pieces Of bottles. fragments Of
glassware and bits of defunct lamp
chimneys thus tinted, yet any sections
OF shattered window paneS lying on
the sand you viii find unchanged.
What causes the glass lying on the
sand to turn pink? This is a mystery
which sas bothered many people. Some
who have related the fact to friends
who had not witnessed the phenomenon
have been regarded with considerable
suspicion and have been placed in the
same class as the famous Baron and
his successor, the Doctor. Still Others
have attempted explanations. some
claiming it was caused by the aIkaH
in the sand, others believing the color
to be a coating upon the glass. and a
few dismissing it as a mysterious man
