WHEN LIGHTNING FLASHES
INTERESTING STUDY
Daily Letter by Frederic j. Haskin

WASHINGTON, June 21.-Death
by lightning is an act of Providence,
the the ways of Providence are mys-
ferrous and past finding out. Hence
the innumerable superstitions as to
what to do or what not to do in an
electrical storm to guard ones self
against the flaming flashes that
carry death and destruction.
Grandmother used to plump her.
self into the middle of a huge
featherbed and cover up her head
| when the storm god ruled the hea-
| vens and threatened the earth, and
she deluded herself with the belief
that was the very safest place in the
world for her. Perhaps it is true
that no one was ever killed by light
ming who had taken refuge in a
featherbed, but scientists agree that
the feathers have nothing to do with
the immunity enjoyed by those who
repose thereon. So don't feel help
less and hopeless II you are sore
afraid of lightning and haven't a
featherbed in the house. No one has
in these days of modern mattresses
and the statistics as to deaths by
lightning are just about what they
uSeQ 10 De-
Then there's that other idea about
putting your hands on a window
pane on the theory that glass is a
non-coHduetor.
People who would not stand at an
open window, or at an open door, on
the theory that a draft is a con-
ductor will close the window and
drape themselves against the glass as
the best preeaution they can pos
sibly take.
As a matter of fact the window,
open or closed, is decidedly a bad
place to be in an electrical storm.
The lightning will not follow a draft.
1t follows the stratum of air having
the greatest relative humidity, and
there is no evidence that air our
rents have anything to do with hu-
Nudity.
But If lightning chances to strike
the side of a house or other build
ing, the chances are it will enter the
window as the point of least resis-
lance, and the thin sheet of glass will
count for nothing in the path of the
tremendous force of a thunderbelt.
Open doorways, or closed doors un-
less they are of steel or extremely
thick, are also to be avoided, accord
ing to experts.

Hunt the Cellar

Perhaps the best advice that may
be offered those who live in constant
fear of lightning is-forget it! II
Joye aims a thunderbolt at you the
chances are that he will get you, no
matter where you are or what you
may be doing to safeguard yourself,
you may find a deal of omfoTt in the
mortality records which show that
odds are about $50, 900 to l that you
will escape the fate you dread. More
over, it is well to bear in mind that
if you are killed by lightning you
will never know anything about it
unless you wake up in the hereafter
with a good memory for events in
the world you have just quilted. You
will eve see the flash that gets
you, nor hear the crash that accom-
panies It..
Lightning does inexplieable things.
Not long ago a man was killed on
one of the Washington golf courses
by a bolt that came, not out of a
clear sky, exactly, but out of n that
was not especially threatening or
ominous. He was in a flat, open
place, and less than a hundred yards
from him was a tall tree. The best
of experts would have advised him
not to take refuge under the tree,
and that the safest place for him was
in the open. And yet if he had been
under the tree he would probably
have escaped his fate. Or, on the
other hand, was it possible for him
TO escape his fate? That is a Dues
ton such as th~eologians and philoso-
pliers and scientists ponder over and
debate, and, to paraphrase Omar the
~Tentmaker, eVern.ore come out the
same door where in they went.
However, Government experts In
the Weather Bureau have studied
the caprices and freaks, as well as
the fairly regular habits of lightning
! anr have arrived at certain conclu-
sions that are of value. They believe
that there are certain precautions
that one may take in an electrica
! storm that are worth while ever
though they carry no guarantees o.
immunity,
For instance, they will tell yos
