Sir-To the young woman writing to the

no one proposes to marry her, let me tell
her why I have not asked her. and for
six different reasons:'
First. I do not understand. X YOU arc
Just what you represent yourself to be,
good. economical housewife. why, you
are not already married
Second. I did not ask you. for ]. like
other men. are averso to going on the
streets with a woman dressed In tho pres
ent.day disgusting fashions.
Third. have no automobile, and most
women would not accept me for that rea-
son--aii other considerations being salts

Fourth. The reason you have not mar
ried 10 probably because the mon whom
you know are not sIre that you woulS
be helpmeet. That you would be WI
ing to share in the struggles until they
would be able TO take you to Easy street
Fifth. Probably because you would not
be willing to live in a modest nome OF
my S35 a week salary. but, would insis

TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
sir-wiiliam T. Street sought for explana-
ton as to the cause or reason for echoes.
and in your paper Of October IL Vol pub
lished a statement by way Of explanation.
but which believe fails to clearly answer
the inquiry. You state conclusions without
full explanations.
Echoes Of articulate speech do not occur
unless the distance OF the rejecting wsu or
surface Is 112h feet distant. This may be
explained as follows: Sound travels 1925
feet per second at ordinary atmospheric
temperatures. and al no one can hear dis.
tnctly more than ive syllsbles In a second
II follows that tho vibrations OF q syllable
travelling theS distance Nof 112h feet both
ways will have a.fVelocity Of 225 feet in
one-nfth of a second. and hence. with a re-
fscting distance OF 112h feet. only a one
syllable echo can be heard The whole five
syllables would consume the full second and
hence only tho last syllable spoken coald
b heard In the echo. IL instead OF a
monosyllabc echo "a dissyllabic 1.-TWO syl-
lables) or a trisyllable three syllables)
are TO be In the echo, then the distance
Of tho rejecting wall must be. respectively,
two and three times the distance Of 112h
feet from the speaker. Hence, the greater
the distance the more words can be in the
echo. Jf. instead OF articulate sounds, the
sound, such as blow on metal. the re-
lecting surface may be as near as fifty
five feet. but not so In speech.
Echoes may repeat themselves several
times and are called multiple echoes; and
they occur where two parallel walls sue.
cesslvely reflect sound back and forth and
are at such a distance apart as to avoid
Interference of the echo sounds. Thus at
the Chateau Simonctta. IN Italy. the echo
repeats itself thirty times. and at Wood
stock. England. there In one which repeats
twenty syllables. When the reflections OF
sound waves occur over short spaces. this
phenomena is termed resonance and
builds UP tho volume Of sound which Is said
10 strengthen" the sound or TO "am-
plify" 1t when the reflection 10 accom-
plished within a tapering horn. as in a talk

Protection at Railroad Crossings


TO ths Editor OF the Eversro PUBLIC LEDGER:
sir--1 have been hearing and reading every
Day about the terrible slaughter Of lives at
railroad crossings. Some OF our public Of
heials. It seems, delight In having their
names advertised in offering their plans and
suggestions to safeguard the driving public
and some OF their suggestions are all right,
But can tell them their plans will not
amount to much unless such plans and de-
vices are financed TO prevent careless acci-
dents. especially ut railroad crossings. There
is at present system. which has been
placed In the hands OF a railroad company
for It's approval. which will positively pre-
vent s5 to 90 per cent Of careless accidents
at railroad crossings. Several mayors Of
New Jersey and Pennsylvania, also governors
Of some states, we're advised Of this matter.
also directors Of public safety and superin-
tendents Of police were asked to aid In this
matter. D..
A certain railroad asked for the plans. but
failed TO state they would sive them flnan-
cial support. as was asked by the party who
had such plans. A certain railroad now has
tho scheme under advisement. I would state
that less publicity on the part Of certain
men and more financial assistance. would 40
far toward preventing IS to 90 per cent Of
careless accidents at railroad crossings To
safeguard the public is the demand that is
being made.
