Where Heat Can and Can
Not Pass

From this follows the general
principle that heat can not be
made to pass from one system to
another of higher temperature,
without the expenditure of work,
since heat passes spontaneously
from a hot body to a cold.
Hence follows the still more
special statement that system
passing through complete
cycle of changes can not pro-
duce work at the expense Of the
heat of the surroundings, for
such work could by friction be

converted again into heat in a
system of higher temperature,
contrary to the principle just
stated"
These two laws, Professor
Lewis asserts, underly the solu-
ton OF the manifold problems
presented in chemistry and
physics by free energy. His task
is now to provide not only the
general laws, but the specific ap-
plication to all chemical com
pounds commonly treated of in
science. He is working on the
preparation of. tables giving in
statistical form these data.
The problem of chemical af:
hnity,' as Professor Lewis ex-.
plains, is the oldest of chemical
problems. But only after the
development OF the science of
( thermodynamics could an exact
definition. or measure Of affinity
be given. The function com
monty employed for such meas.
ure is the free energy, a quantity
closely related to the maximum

How Energy Animates the
Universe

H0INCIDENT with his dis
covery, published yesterday
on this page, that all matter
consists of three kinds of chem
ical composition, distinguished
by the freedom with which cleo
irons, the most infinitesimal divi-
sions of substance, move within
or without the molecules, Prof.
Gilbert N. Lewis, the brilliant
chemist of the University of Cal
ifornia, has formulated for the
first time in science the two
fundamental laws under which
energy or force animates and
operates the universe.
His discoveries have been con-
sequent Upon an investigation
into THE Free Energy of Chem
ical Substances" This research,
considered one of the most inn
portant attempts to solve great
problem ever undertaken by an
American scientist. was assigned
to him by the association Of
American chemists. With funds
. provided, Professor Lewis has
conducted his investigations at
the Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology and at the Univer-
sity of California, the papers to
be printed in the east. One paper
prepared by him sets forth the
twin laws Of energy. These are:
"First-Ahy system in given
condition contains. a definite
quantity of energy, and when
this system undergoes change
any gain or loss in its content of
energy is equal to the loss or
gain of the energy contained in
the surrounding systems. In any;
physical or chemical process the
increase of energy of a given
system is therefore equal to the
heat absorbed from the sur
roundings, fess the work done by
the system upon the surround
ings.'
"Second-Every process that
occurs spontaneously is capable
OF doing work; to reverse any
such process requires the ex-
penditure of work from the out
side.

Making Letters Worth
Reading
A Word on What You Put In Your
Mail
By DR.. CHARLES H. PARkHURST

A LETTER has just been re-

to be encouraged. Even when it
takes place between people mu-
tually unacquainted, it is full of
advantage to both parties.
If man has ideals, it benefits
him to think them out with suf-
'hcient clearness to be able to put
them into black and white and
send them to somebody.
If there is anything of value
in them-and there probably will
be-then they will add something
to- the one who receives tffem as
well as to the one who sends.
Our thoughts are, IN one
sense, our own peculiar prop
erty, but in another sense they
belong to the world like every
thing else that We call our own.
We ought to consider our
selves and all that we have as a
part of the public assets.
Even our ideas and feelings
fulfill their complete mission
only by being allowed to flow
out and become tributary to the
big flowing current Of public
opinion and sentiment.
Men and women who keep
their inner life bottled up and
sealed over might as well be in
some other world as here.
