THE railroad station is a typical
example of thousands of depots
to be found here and there and every
where throughout Americas country
districts. The equipment includes a
clever model of a complete coaling
station, an interesting roundhouse, re-
pair shops, water tower, pumping 6
station, several block towers and
water cranes, a large gas tank, re-
frigeration station, a complete yard
with rolling stock ready to be as
sembled and all the other earnfarks
which identify one of our important
railroad yards. There are even special
switches for the veteran cars and
engines, as we'll as a hospital for the
trains which have been wrecked.
The oldest locomotive is one year
past the voting age. 1t is one of the
early types Of toy locomotives which
you wind up with key. 1t is the
first locomotive which j. n. SwartZell
ever owned. 1t was % years ago
when Santa Claus left it at his home.
1t is one relic which you could not
buy today, no matter how much you
offered its owner. He treasures 1t as

ington amateur. on the other hand,
makes everything exactly to scale and
measure. His models are scientifically
and technically accurate.
The body and boiler of the locomo-
tive are made from an aluminium
casting. This casting is made in a
regulation form or core which was
nodded exclusively for that particu-
lar purpose. 1t is, indeed, a compli-
Gated and technical assignment mere
ly to make one of these castings.
Space limitations prevent the COM
plete description of how this is &C
complished. Suffice to say that Mr..
Swartzell uses aluminium castings be-
cause they are light in weight, while
the metal is easy to work One dis
advantage obtains because it is i'm
possible to solder aluminium. Brass is
not satisfactory on account OF its
weight. An aluminium casting for a
17-inch locomotive costs only about 81.

MIR. SWARTZELL makes the
wheels and trucks for his cleo
trical locomotive of brass. Each set
of trucks is pivoted on the locomotive
in such a manner that they will hold
to the curves even when the tiny en-
gine attains a speed as high as 10
miles an hour. The drive wheels are
fastened securely to a small CONNER

give it strong push to carry 1t
around an abrupt curve, you will find
that the engine, as a rule, will be de-
rallied. One of the Swartzell locomo-
tives will ride the curve safely when
subjected to such a test because 1t has
pivoted trucks, which are adjusted to
withstand exactly such exigencies.
Altogether more than 450 feet of
special standard-gauge track have
been laid on white pine ties and a
substantial wooden base in the con-
struction of the SwartZen "B & o."
line. Allowing for switches, yard
track and the like, this gives total
of 200 feet of double-tracked right of
way. The track Is made of brass,
shaped to nicely to conform accur-
ately to standard specifications. Smali
nails are used to faSten this track to
it's wooden base. Switches with auto
matte and hand controls are provided.
The frogs in all this track are made
correctly, while the points are ex.
pertly soldered.
The complete railroad system is
operated by an electrical generator
functioned by one-quarter-horse-
power electric motor. This direct-cur-
rent system is used because 1t oper-
ates the cars. trains or locomotives
with instantaneous speed, as soon as
the proper switch Is turned. Where

source Of power. the small commuta'

while there occurs a loss of power and
delayed motion in starting each time
when the current is switched on.
The SwartZell system is so wired
that eastbound traffic, westbound traf-
fic and yard switching can be consum-
mated simultaneously. There are three
electrical circuits. One controls traf-
tic in the easterly direction. Another
governs rail movement toward the
west. The third operates locomotives
and trains which have to be switched
within the company's yards. Alto
gether. seven electrical switches in a
central switch box govern the entire
system. The arrangement is such that
control of the different units, respec-
lively, can be delegated to certain yard
stations: One part of the system can
be in full operation while another is
idle or temporarily out of commission
due to accident or special order. from
the executive Office. A third rail is
the actuating agency which links the
trains with their power source.
One outstanding feature is a beauti-
full model of a truss bridge made en-
tirely of metal and so designed as to
carry the maximum load on the upper
span. Curiously enough, when you lift
this little bridge, which is only feet
in length, it seems SO light as to be

toy motors with reversing switches.
Each locomotive is designed true to

horses which pull our finest trains.

resources. 1t so happened, however,
that an attractive business oppor-
tunity developed before this young
collegian won his degree. The result
was that the student who coveted in
dustrial occupation of a research en-
gineer was shunted into the world of
commerce to fill lucrative position
before he won his sheepskin. From
that day to this, however, he has ex-
perienced the thrills and joys, the
quests and conquests of his cherished
vocation by tinkering with models in
his non-union shop.
First of all, Mr.. Swartzell designs a
locomotive, passenger coach, freight
car or other piece of rolling stock be-
fore he begins it's manufacture. Seated
before his drafting board, he sketches
on paper the outline of the model
Then, using gauge and slide rule,
measure and micrometer, he draws a
picture of the model to exact dimen-
sions. Subsequently, he uses this
drawing as his manufacturing path
finder. He makes the model to accord
exactly with the scientific dimensions.

curacy greatly surpasses that of the

New Giant NebuIae.

TWO clouds of white hot gases. each
so vast as to be capable of en-
gul1ng not only the solar system but
many of the nearest stars as well,
have been found in two different parts
of the sky, according to an announce
ment by Prof. Harlow Shapley, d.
rector of the Harvard College OBJ
servatory. One is in the great Magei-
lanic cloud, a luminous area in the
constellation of Dorado resembling a.
detached piece of the Milky Way. 1t
can only be seen from points in the
Southern Hemisphere, but the other
one is in the constellation of the
Triangle, which is visible in our north.
ern skies in the early Winter. 1t is
| connected with a spiral nebula,
Messier 33.
Both of these objects have been
known for some time, although they
are only visible with a large tele-
scope and are known only by their
| numbers in the new general catalogue
of such objects. The southern one is
referred to by astronomers as N. G. C.
2O7Os and the other as N. G.. c. 604.
Determinations of their actual size,
| however, have only been made pos
sible by recent determinations of their
distances.
Prof. Shapley himself measured the
| distance of the large Magellanic cloud
| by a study of Photographic plates
1 made at the Harvard branch observa-
tory at Arequipa, Peru, and found it
! so far away that it's light would take
a hundred thousand years to reach
us. The distance of the spiral, Mes
sier SO, was determined last year by
DIR. Edwin Hubble of the Mount VII.
son Observatory and it turned out TO
! be about million light years.
Using these measures of the dis
tances. 1t is found that the diameter
| of n. G. c. 2070 is 264 light years
and for N. G. c. 604 it is 1913 light
years, SO that If the earth were placed
at the center of either one not only
would the sun and plants of the solar
system be included in it, but so also
| would a large number of stars we
| see in the sky. Both objects are much
greater than the more familiar
gaseous nebulae, such as the one In
Orion, which is only about three light
years in diameter, less than the dis
tance from us to the nearest known
star.

THERE is a special bench lathe
- made expressly for model making.
1t is an inexpensive k-geared
lathe, which can be used for either
wood or metal turning. 1t is pro-
vided with the complete equipment of

driven by a countershaft operated by
a one-fourth horse-power electric mo-

In addition there are several bench

When Mr. Swartzell completed his
academic studies at the Friends
school he matriculated at the Uni
versity of Illinois, where he enrolled
in the railroad engineering course. 1t
so happens that the University of Illi-
nois offers special courses in railroad
engineering. In the research labora-
