OPTICAL SOCIETY OF U. S.
MEETS HERE IN OCTOBER
Sessions at Standards Bureau to
Be Open to Laymen as Well
as to Scientists,

The seventh annual meeting of the
Optical Society of America will be
held at the national bureau of stand
ards. Washington, during the last
week in October. The regular ses-
sions Of the reading of papers will
be open to all interested persons, sci
entists and laymen alike.
One session will be devoted to vision
and physiologic optics. An exhibit of
optical instruments and apparatus
will be held at the bureau Of stand
ards in connection with the fall
meeting Of the American Optical So
ciety.
Before the war the United States
did not undertake the manufacture
Of optical glass; thus the disc for
the 100-inch at Mount Wilson was
made at st. Gobain, in France. The
exigencies of wary however, made
home manufacture necessary, much
help being given by the geophysicaI
laboratory at Washington The work
was at first limited to the small
lenses needed for military purposes.
but after the -armistice 1t was greatly
extended. and electric furnaces were
constructed for annealing the glass,
the rate of cooling being carefully
controlled.
In a recent article in Popular As
tronomy d. E. Sharp states that q
l0-inch disc for a reflector for the
Steward observatory, University of
Arizona, has now been completed by
the Spencer Lens Co., Hamburg, N. Y.
The glass employed has q low CO.
eff1cient of expansion. and 1t is hoped
that changes of figure due to change
OF temperature will thus be mini
mized.

The Gentle Sex.

If you want a, tale that's CORY, let
a woman write the same; to com
pound thrilling story I'd appoint
some gentle dame. Man at times
seems rather sparing, daubing in the
scarlet tones, but woman. greatly
daring, fills her narrative with bones.
When her Inspirations wrapped her
she has blood and bones to spare,
with a corpse in every chapter. and
an inquest here and there. Woman
writes detective stories by the
bushel, in these times. and we can't
deny the glories OF her plots and
sleuths and crimes And the reader
murmurs sadly, What dragon
she must be. she who writes so
blithely, gladly. of red carnage in
a seaw Then some day the reader
sees her, and he cries aloud, Cad
zooks" And a most astonished
geezer is that reader of her books.
For she's quiet and retiring, she IS
OF queenly grace; and if bloodshed
she's desiring. there's no symptom
in her face. Nearly all this seasons
thrillers are by female authors writ /;
through their pages wild-eyed kill
ers like the movie phantoms fit:
And the gentle authors render all
their fury in their books; in their
private lives they're tender, drinking
tea in quiet hooks.

corps by the first of the year to the
limits fixed by Congress-,
The records Of practically every one
of the more than 1900 officers now on
the regular rolls. including the general
officers, must be examined by the board
and the relative value of these officers
to the Army determined in orde. that
the separations from the active service

Each officer has been authorized to
present to the board facts he regards
as pertinent to his case. 1t is generally

vantage of this authority.
