Hoboke Professor Meeting Some
Success in Investigation
of Waves.
TRYING TO BRIDGE THE GAP
Bunch OF Waves In the Ether Is Lost
and No One Knows Whittier
They Go or What
They Do.

South Hadley, Mass.-The scientist
has another missing link for which to
search. This time, however, it is not
the biologist who seeks the link but
the physicist. A bunch of waves in
the ether is lost and no one knows
whittier they go or what they do. Some
Of their associates were long ago
found, a few others were investigated
more recently. but others are still
missing. Wireless waves, heat waves,
light waves and the waves Of the
X-rays have been made clear to us.
Yet there is an unabridged gap, a gap
that is nearer being filled today than
1t ever has been in the past.
Trying to Bridge the Gap.
A Mount Holyoke college professor,
Elizabeth R. Laird, is finding some
success at one end of the gap and in
vestigations at the other end were
completed some time ago. At the one
end are the ultra violet rays and at
the other are NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
soft X-rays. 1t ls with this latter class
that Miss Laird has had considerable
success.
The first of the waves Of radiation
to be studied were those of visible
light. The spectrum received the at
teItion of the physicist, who found
that the interval from the red to the
violet was, in the language of the
physics of sound, less than an octave,
the violet rays having less than twice
the frequency of the red ones Nat
urally the question arose as to exact
ly what was outside this brief space
Of waves capable Of affecting the sense
of vision.
Where the Link ls Missing.
And so outside were found infra-red
waves of heat and above these, beyond
another gap, were found Hertzian
waves used In wireless, while at the

IN THE deadlock between senate and
II house over the agricultural appro-
priations bill one of the items-if not
the chief item-was that for $239,416
for Congressional seed distribution"
Generally speaking, the senate was de-
termined to abolish this old-time ap-
preparation and the house vas deter
mined to retain it. Yet there were
many senators for the seeds" and
many representatives against them.
Days and days were spent in debate
on the subject. OF course, many Gu
rious things were said. Here are a
few picked at random from the !n-
terminable debate:

night Just before he addressed q meet
ing of Socialists.
The basis Of the contest is that Ber-
ger is disqualified from holding the
office and that votes cast for him were
void. The grounds are similar to those
in the Carney contest. Some additional
contentious are made, based on devel-
orments since Berger defeated Carney
and Stafford in the election more than a
year ago.
Mr.. Bodenstab stated that his con-
test will be filed in the House Of Rep
resentatives.
"The first basis of the proceedings
is that person who is VIGOROUSLY dis
qualified and ineligible cannot be voted
for, that votes cast for such a person
are OF no effect and that it results in
effect in q negation rather than an
election" said Mr.. Boden stab.
The second basis is that any person
found guilty of felony loses his right
10 vote. and that in this state any per-
son who has been deprived OF his right
TO vote also loses his right to hold Of
fee"
Mr.. Bodenstab claims the seat on tbs
ground that he was the only candidate
for whom votes legally may be counted
This contest is based on the theory
