Roekn campanIIe WIth Hand.

Elmer f. Hall, associate professor
OF physics OF the University Of Califor
mia, stood at the foot of the 300 foot
Campanile on the campus and with
one hand shook the giant structure,
says a Berkeley dispatch to the San
Francisco Chronicle Hall has seis-
mograph records, photographs and a
lot of data to prove that he moved the
huge granite needle and is prepared to
lecture to his students as to how the
trick is done.
He says: 81 placed a delicate seis-
mograph like those used to record
earthquakes on the top Of the tower.
Then | went down to the ground and
about once in a second I pushed my
hand against the granite shaft. BY
applying this pressure In time with
the natural period of the vibration OF
the Campanile | set the whole mass
in motion, so that its vibrations were
clearly recorded by the seismograph." "
The Campanile is regarded as a
masterpiece of earthquake resistive
construction. Instead of being a rigid
structure, it is built with cross brac-
ing eliminated at alternate stories.
The result is that its vibration is like
that of a steel rod stuck in the ground
by one end. In an earthquake, 1t is
claimed, the Campanile will vibrate
like a tree instead of breaking.

Era in Bridge Building.

Introduction of the semielliptical
arch in bridge building in England
met with complaint on behalf of the
Tweedside people, because the road
way over it being almost level, as one
old man said, you did not know
when you were on it and when you
were off it," The first iron arch con-
structed was made in England at Coal.
brookdale by one Darby. The bridge
consists of one semicircular arch, 100
foot span, each of the ribs being cast
in two pieces only. 1t was opened for
traffic in 1879, and a new era in the
art of bridge building was thus en-
tered upon. Up to 1860 cast iron was
predominant in bridge construction,
and although it is believed that
wrought iron was introduced before
1900 it does not appear to have been
extensively used before 1860

Good light is most essential in
farm building Of any kind and espe-
cially in a dairy barn. There is al
ways a good deal OF work to be done
in this type of barn in addition TO the
regular work that is done in every
barn Any barn has to be cleaned at
regular intervals, and the milking has
to be done, also in a dairy barn. Elec.
trio or acetylene lights are often pro.
vided, but II It is not necessary to use
these all the time the cost of running
the building will be reduced. Tho
first cost Of windows is practically the
only cost, as they are very seldom
broken. After they are once in place
they are permanent asset TO the

the light bills If enough of them are

tion of his COWS quarters. 1t is a good

InnenIous Ration Warmer.

An ingenious and inexpensive de-
vice, which might merit the attention
of the British war office, has been in
vented in Italy for warming the SOL
diers' rations. This scaldarancio, or
ration warmer" as it is called, IS
composed of old newspapers. These
are rolled together as tightly as pos
sible, and the edges gummed, so that
they form a compact stick of paper.
This is then stepped in parafTin and
cut up into segments, one of which is
sufficient to heat a soldiers rations.
All over Italy old newspapers are be-
ing collected for the scaldarancio.
Thus (caustically remarks a Rome cor
respondent) the Press, even in these
days of the censorship, may be of use.

WAR HAS BANKRUPTED ISLAND
Small British Possession Hard Hit by
the Struggle Now In Prog
ress In Europe.

The Isle of Man Is the hardest hit
by the war OF any portion Of the Brit
ieh empire. II Is on the verge OF bank
ruptcy because the imperial treasury
insists on the wiping out Of the deficit
Of $4,000 before Il will sanction the
relief OF distress
Where the money Is 10 come from
Is a problem, as the proposed remedy
OF higher duties and taxes will fall
short Of requirements. The island
might swallow it's pride and annex
itself TO the neighborlng county Of Ian
caster, but tradition and sentiment re-
volt at the idea.
Although Man Is only 33xl2 miles.
It's political constitution is said 20 be
the Oldest in Europe, it's language is
Gaelic dialect and peculiar TO the
island and home rule has been the
privilege Of the Manxman through the
ages.
When the war came the heavy tour
ist holiday trade was cut off, The
swift packet boats were taken over
by the admiralty. and the submarine
menace made travel unpopular. Man
then became a concentration camp
OF alien enemies, who now number
10000, or less than three times it's to.
tai native population. These camps
helped TO save the situation for the
island farmers, although a poor substi-
tute for the food Of tourists who used
to come.
It is now proposed that the govern
ment use the hotels and lodging
houses, whose owners are in great dis
tress, as hospitals for convalescent sol
diers. One Of the relief measures pro.
posed by the Manx parliament which
the imperial treasury refuses to In.
dorse is a grant Of S250,00O to dis

part is in the main building, The two
parts can be separated by solid par.
tition if desired.
The arrangement of the COW stalls
is in two rows, which are built on the
facing-out principle, The choice OF
either this or the facing-in plan is
entirely question OF personal choice.
There are several advantages of each
arrangement One of the main adVan-
tages that is claimed for the arrange
ment shown here is the fact that
most of the work is done behind the
COWS, and by having one litter alley
the manure is concentrated. which
makes the work Of cleaning up the
barn much easier There is also the
advantage of having all the milking
done along the same alley. 1t is
much easier to keep the walls clean in
this arrangement, as all the litter is
in the one alley and does not spatter
on the walls
The stalls are set with the floor on
a slant SO that they can be washed out
and will drain into the cutters behind.
The floor of the horse stable is made
level and the concrete In the stalls is
often covered with planks or made
with wood blocks so that the horses
will not slip This is not necessary
in the COW part of the stable. as cows
do not slip on concrete as readily as
horses

dish, eight years old, both Of whom
are in a critical condition at the Over
brook hospital here. The two young.
sters, with four or five playmates,
started a game of hide and seek on
the way home from school. Helberg
and Pendish jumped into an old bread
box in front of a grocery store on
Bank street. When the cover dropped
the clasp fell over a staple. Their eff

During the early part of the eve
