 "Oh, but we have some very fine big ones," replied the Englishman At Drury Lane, for instance, if a man threw an egg from the back ot the stalls it would probably fall short into the orchestra"

At the beginning of the examina-

she had never heard of Mother

given her and she returned to her
seat to try to puzzle out the rest of
the paper. Despite the fact that she
was totally in the dark about the

used her ingenuity and wrote a very

Suns Germ Power
In L. S. Bureau Test

Washington. Feb. 2-(By A. P.)-
In tracing out the reasons why sun
light has power to destroy germ life,
a fact long known and put to use by
every housewife who has 'aired out"
things. the Bureau of Standards and
the Public Health Service have pro-
duced positive germicidal results.
A public document now in course
Of publication, by w. w. Coblentz
and II. r. Fulton, research men as
signed to the work, recounts findings
in the field which will be of special
value to professional and scientific
workers.
1t was long ago established that
the germicidal power of sunlight
came largely from its actinic or In
visible rays, and for the sake Of the
experiment., these were produced in
measured quantities and character
istics by heated mercury vapOr, and
screened through quartz lenses. The
Public Health Service furnished large
quantities of germs for the testing,
one type, bacterium coli communis,
being that which is most frequently
encountered in sewage tainted water.
The germ colonies. properly ex-
posed to the rays, were found to die
in less than one second, in some
cases. The scientists worked out the
mortality produced by each different
wave length of the invisible light
rays, and have compiled the detail OF
their findings in the document which
will be shortly available.
