Church Union in Practice.

The way the interchurch movement
works out in practice in rural commu-
mites i well shown in the report OF
committee in charge Of it in Addison
county, Vermont. There are many
small towns in that county where the
support of churches has long been diff
ficult and where in some cases that
upport is weakened by the division of
churchgoers among two or three de-
nominations.
The committee recommends, 10 meet
the situation, a minimum salary OF ST.
200 with house rent added for any
clergyman in the country; recommends
the union of several of the smaller
churches into one strong religious body,
in one town recommending the engag-
ing Of two clergymen and woman as
religious workers N other towns the
establishment Of community houses
and community programs was recon-
mended, but only in those cases where
there is a reasonable prospect of the
plans being carried through with ade-
quate financial support.
The introduction Of the community
house in the hill towns Of New Eng
land is a step which ought 10 strength
en- the morale OF those communities.
Thirty years ago the degeneration Of
the hill towns was as great social
problem as the slums Of the cities, but
such work as city settlements to meet
those conditions was exceptional. The
telephone. the automobile and the seek
ing 81 remote summer homes by city
people have modified conditions some
what. although the newspapers carry
the record Of crimes in such isolated
colonies far too often There is still
great need for regenerative work In
such regions and apparently the inter
churrh movement intends 10 do it BY
drawing upon the great campaign fund
which II i about 90 raise FOR the ado

tie il might have tendency to lessen
the toll that storms take annually in

Lampe designed boat on the plan
Of Noah's Ark. He tried the craft out

boats had to be kept in port.

USES RATHER TO
TERRIFY VICTIM
Woman Records Speed of the Vibra'
tions.

How fast does a rattlesnakes tail
vibrate when it is excited? Such was
the problem that Mabel G. Williams of
the State University of Iowa set her
| self to solve. Prof II. r. Dill, curator
of the natural history museum, let her
experiment with the tail of diamond
hack RATHER from Texas, with nine or
10 remaining rattles, Others having
been broken off Miss Williams re-
ports the results to Science.
Two assistants kept the snakes head
out of mischief and handled the rec
ording apparatus, while Miss Williams
held the tail as far back from the tip
as possible and directed a wire she had
fastened TO it against brass plate
The touching Of the plate completed an
electric circuit which recorded the vi
brations upon a time indicator.
Then they made the snake angry
and it began rafting. The speed Of
the vibrations OF its tail varied from %
to 30 hundredths Of a second.
The rafting produces tone, which
depends not upon the vibration, but
upon the natural resonance of the rat
ties themselves.
"The pitch OF this tome" writes Miss
Williams, "as determined by two mu-
sicians with very keen sense of pitch,
and checked with accurately tuned
forks, is between G and G sharp; the
nome is expressed, therefore, by about
l2s to 1856 vibrations per second. Very
marked changes in rate of tail, from
the fastest that could be produced by
marked provocation, to the almost
auescent state, did not cause fiuctua-
ton Of the pitch beyond this approx
mate half tone. The tone itself is ex-
ceedingly complex, however, and 1t
might conceivably vary with the num-
Der and size of the ratties. 1t was
possible to detect, but not to Identify,
certain overtones.
1.-THE popular impression that the
RATHER uses his rattles as warning
that he is about TO strike is regarded
by Mr. Dill as quite erroneous. This
snake when striking normally does so
first and rattles afterward, il at all.
II will, for instance strike at bird
placed in the cage, rattle, then strike
again. II appears that the rattle is
rather to terrify than to warn, II is
also used as a defensive mechanism.
The instinct to vihrate the tail is not
peculiar to the rattlesnake, but is com
mon 10 many other species, as, for in
stance, to the non.venomous king snake
and the blue racer"
