NEW ACADEMY IS PROPOSED FOR
HOUSING OF LATEST SCIENTIFIC
DISCOVERIES; PLANS ARE OUTLINED

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Have you
ever seen the suns spots? Have you
ever seen demonstrated Foucault's
celebrated pendulum experiment to
prove the rotation of the earth
Have you ever watched the antics of
minute infusorians swimming in wa
ter? With the completion of the
new home of the National Academy
of Sciences at Washington, these
things will be a regular part of the
interesting exhibits open to the pub
lie
1t is hoped to have the building
completed by the fall of 1923. 1t
will be located near the recently de-
Heated Lincoln Memorial and will
be three stories high. The first
floor will be given over to public
and museum purposes where many
scientific facts will be demonstrated
The two upper floors will be devoted
TO offices.
The main demonstration feature
will be under dome in the central
lobby, where the sun-spot phenomena
will be demonstrated. A coelostat
telescope mounted in the dome will
form a large image Of the sun on
the white surface of circular table
in the middle of the room. Here
visitors will see the spots on the
suns disc, changing in number and
form, from day to day and moving
across the disc as the sun revolves
on its axis.
Foucault's experiment demonstra
| ton will be embodied in a 60-fOo
pendulum swinging in a wide arc
The swinging pendulum will mari
an invariable direction in space, ant
as the earth revolves beneath it
rotation will be plainly shown by
! the steady change in direction o
the pendulum swing over a divided
arc Here the pressure OF light
earthquake action, magnetic storms
the gravitational pull of small
masses, the growth of plants, Twins
bacteria and other phenomena will
be the subjects of other exhibits.
In the seven exhibition rooms sur
rounding the central rotunda, tn
latest results OF scientific and indus
trial research will be demonstrated.
= One week there may be displaye'
the latest forms of radio telephon
and the next perhaps a set of ply
Geological tests or a new find OF fos
sils or series Of synthetic com
pounds.
/, The building. designed to cos
$5,O00,000, was the gift Of the Cal
negie Corporation, provided tn
Academy of Sciences secured a sui
able site. The ground was bough
with a fund of 100000 collected b
donations throughout the country
This method was followed in orde
that every section of the natio
might feel it owned a share. TIL
building will be Of marble in classi
simplicity.

PSYCHO-ANALYSIS
is CAUSE OF. BIG
ROUT OF YANKEES

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Having no
corner grocery stores where they
could sit on cracker boxes, smoke
stogies and "chaw terbacker," the
fans OF Gotham have bored down into
the subway and ridden around town
consulting bone specialists, muscle
rubbers and psycho-analysts to find
someone with whom to chew the rag
about the World Series just ended.
There's more truth than foolish
ness about the psycho-analytica idea.
One Yankee fan, unable to find balm
in the box scores, approached psy-
cho-analyst and found out that Babe
Ruth is almost the sole cause for
his teams dcbacle. Babe didn't hit,
so no one else did Not that the
team blindly emulatcd Ruth, but
that it could not avoid it.
"The mental suggestion was so
strong that the whole thing is
thoroughly simple" explained the
psycho-analyst when the other
members of the team saw that Ruth
the mighticst slugGer ever developed
could not knock the ball out of the
infield, they subconsciously remarked
to themselves, We'll. if Babe can't
hit, l know l can't At any rate
they didn't"

will have his say. Chauncey M. De-
pew In his autobiography tells an en-
tertaining story about an after dinner
speaker whose persistence is more
amusing to read about than 1t was
to- endure.
''At a great political dinner" Mr.
Depew says, according to the Youths
Companion, II sat beside Governor
Ogiesby of Illinois, He was famous
as war governor and as speaker
There were six speakers on the plat
form, and / was one Of them. Hap

ernor said to me, How much Of the
gospel can these tenderfeet stand?'
"'Well, governor / answered, there
are six speakers tonight, and the audi
ence will not allow any one of them
to take more than thirty minutes. "A
speaker who exceeds that amount of
time will lose his crowd: and, worse
than that, the eloquent gentlemen
who are to follow him and who are
bursting with impatience to get the
floor may kill him.
/" Why said the governor, don't
see how any one can get started in
thirty minutes
"'Well.' cautioned him, please do
not be too long,
"At midnight, when the chairman de-
clared the meeting adjourned, the hall
was virtually empty, and the governor
was in the full tide of his speech,
which evidently would require perhaps
three hours. He had long ago lost
the crowd
"The next morning Senator Foraker
of Ohio, who was one of the appointed
speakers, told me that he was just
getting into bed when the governor
burst into his room and fairly shout
ed, Foraker, no wonder New York is
almost always wrong. You saw last
night that 1t would not listen to the
truth. Now 1 want to tell you what /

MIGHT WORKERS IN BIG CITY
ToiIers Who Ply Their Vacations A.
ter Dark Live Practically Apart
From Their Fellows

The night men in all industries arc
a race apart. There are thousands OF
them In New York who could never
be induced to go back to working by
daylight. They live In silent city
a city that has no glare. They escape
the jangle and rattle that pursues the
working crowd Of New York's day.
1t is not that they hate the sunlight,
explains the New York Sun. Some OF
them love the sun so much that they
work by night to have leisure half the
day. But most of them dislike crowds
and do not care to be j0stled- They
go to work about the time that other
people are going home. Moving against
the crowd transportation they seldom
have to go without a seat Phey go
home after two, And after two there
are no crowds in the street.
Most of the people who work by day
would think 1t a shadow city these
night men live ina city life so COM
pletely re-geared that they never get
the full stride Of New York. But the
night men would disagree. Many OF
them think they enjoy the city more
than people who always work by day.
