 Ormiston added that the third in- fluence which prompted him to re- turn to California was the counsel of Martin, who, he said, had advised him to keep well within the law" and to conduct himself entirely along legal lines"

 He explained that it was during a breakfast conversation at Waukegan

pest, that or the VlSlDle light rays. These rays bathe IS continually by day from the sun and by night from electric and other lights. As we go from colored light, with the shortest light waves, toward the bass end of the keyboard, these rays have longer and longer wave lengths to tho red rays. the longest that will illuminate an object and so make it visible.
 'The next longer waves and all others beyond them toward the bass are invisible. Those in the octaves closest to visible light make them selves known by their heat; we can feel them radiating from any hot body. Next come the relatively short Hertzian waves for which few uses have been found. The lengths of Hertzian waves vary from slightly more than the thickness of sheet of paper to lengths of many miles. When Hertzian ,aves of 100 meters or more encountered on the key board we enter the realm of the most widely used radio waves.
 Invisible Rays
 Going back to our starting point the light octave, and tracing rays along our keyboard this time to- ward the treble end, we again enter a world of invisible rays. The first of these covering about five octaves, are the ultraviolet rays. Nearly an octave of these reach us from the sun. These sun rays, shorter than those of violet light, do not illimin- ate objects to our eyes. but they make their existence known by tan- ming and frecklink our skin and by producing photographic and chemi- cal changes. These waves are so short that it takes from e4.o0o to 100000 of them to make an inch.
 Beyond tho natural ultraviolet waves that reach us from the sun-- still toward the treble end of the scale-are several octaves of other (artificially produced) ultraviolet waves. These are radiated when substances are brought to very great heat. There are more than a million and quarter of these shortest ultraviolet rays to the inch. They merge into and even overlap the next group, the we'll known artificially produced X-rays. Thus a short ultraviolet ray is the same as long N-ray. and vice yer sa. x-rays were for a long time the shortest rays known to exist. It takes more than 125 millions of the shorter artificially produced x-rays to make an inch. These exceedingly short rays are not stopped by ordi- nary materials but plunge into or through them so that we may make photographs through boards and other objects. A fraction of an inch of lead does not stop them, how ever.
 The Shortest Known Rays
 "The discovery of radium brought to light still shorter and more pene- trating rays given off by that my sterious element. These may be call led naturally produced X-rays, but they have been given the distinctive name, gamma-rays. Of the shortest gamma-rays. 1t takes more than 4 billions to make an inch. Gamma rays will plunge through seven or eight inches of lead before being stopped.
 "The reason that the shorter rays penetrate is supposed to be that the waves are so short in comparison with the molecules of matter and the distances between the molecules, that they pass through the space just as a breeze passes through window screen. But many thickenesses of of screens will stop a breeze. and so

stop even the shortest rays.
 Until 192 the gamma-rays of ra- dium were the shortest rays known, but in that year Professor Millikan discovered the Cosmic or Millikan
 ray, a natural ray coming to the
 earth from outside space but ap- parently not from the sun. This ray lis almost iAconceivably short. It would require nc than 630 billions
 of them to make one inch. They will pass through more than six feet of lead before being stopped"

The 440-yard free style and the 220-

event.
One champion successfully defended
her crown in the opening days events

elevated to the throne against a for
midable field of opponents.
Ethel Lackie of the Illinois A. c.
won the title in the 100-meter swim,
when the defending champion, Doris

by swimming out of her lane. Miss
Lackie's time for the 100 meters was

ing, Saw to it that races were offered
for every mans horse. The attractive
program, coupled with the offering of
purses almost on a par with those
offered on mile ovals, has resulted in
q big demand for stall room, and all
signs point to Jim O'Hara and his
associates enjoying banner meeting.
The star event of the meeting is
the 81, 900 Final Handicap. 1t is a
mile handicap for all ages, and it
won't be surprising If several horses
who are to appear at a later date at
Havre de Grace, Bowie, Laurel and
pimlico are shipped to Marlboro to
strive for the prize. That has been
the custom of the owners in previous
seasons, and It will in all likelihood be
repeated
A sprint race will open each days

ing the card. Marylanders are equally
divided as to sprint and distance
racing, and they should have no kick

The Marlboro program calls for
four races ut five furfongs. FIVE at
five and sone-half furlongs, five at
six and one-half furlongs one at six

at one mile and 20 yards, nine at
