HUMAN FACE AS A BEACON
Radiometer Able to Record tho
"Shine" Thrown Of, at Distance
of Several Miles,

Novclists that speak Of face
lighting up put down nn actual truth
that few Of them are aware Of or in
tend. One Of the most delicate in
struments in the world, q radiometcr,
records the "shine" Of human face,
and can do 1t at distance OF several
miles. SO delicate is the instrument
that 1t can detect and record the glim-
mer OF a candle half a mile away, and
II there were no atmospheric obstruc-
tion 1t could detect the same candle 10
miles away. The instrument consists
Of two thin glass disks, one polished
and one blackened. suspended by a
quartz thread In vacuum. Waves Of
radiant energy striking this instru.
ment disturb it's balance, because the
bright disk reflects them, while the
black one absorbs them.
While the human face to the nor
NAL eye gives out no waves &C radiant
energy, tho fact remains that a con-
stant flow of energy is being thrown
on, and these waves travel IN un.
known distance. Although the radio
meter Is a wonderful and delicate in
strument, there Is q thermal couple
ten times as sensitive as the rndiome-
ter and 1t can detect the heat of a
candle 60 miles distant.

he had partaken too freely of the

Inc Moro Is not all bad. He has

of Cambridge Lodge of Elks, the
Rev. James Macleod, pastor OF the
First Baptist Church, was the speak
er and made strong appeal for the
development of more friendly ana
sympathetic relations between peo7
pie of every section, showing bow
the cultivation Of the narrow, self
fish view of life, that which causes
people to think only of themselves
and their own, results in the break
ing down of all community spirit as
we'll as patriotism, and in the END,
brings about unhappiness and sor-
row. The people of every commune
ty, the speaker said have so much IN
common. so much in which they
should be mutually interested, so
much to gain by pulling together SO
much to gain by friendship and by
association that it seems unthinka=
BILE that there should be any who
would want to isolate themselves
from those, who. like, themselves,
are sojourning but a brief time in
this life, and are only, after all, pre-
pairing for the world to come.
