PUBLIC WINKS AT
NEW EAR TESTS
Dropping Eyelids Featured in
This Method.

New York.-Holding watch near
the ear to test hearing may soon be q
thing of the past. Ear tests devel
oped by scientists of the Bell tele.
phone laboratories here make use OF
accurate instruments which, with psy'
Geological aids, determine a persons
exact degree of hearing. False claims
of either deafness or exceptional hear
ing are of no avail, for the truth car
now be easily discovered.
A push-button on the instrument
which measures the tone emitted for
the test permits the interruption OF
the sound ut any moment. If pa.
tient says he hears tone and then
claims that he still hears it when II
has been cut off, it is evident that he
has been deceiving himself.
Another device makes it possible to
switch the sound to either ear or
both. A loud tone in either ear
causes the eye nearer it to blink
slightly, though the patient may claim
that he hears nothing.
The patient is made to read aloud
In his normal voice in another test,
while tone is switched from ear to
eur. The intensity of the voice is
regulated by the sound of the voice
and this can be drowned out. One
will, however, be able to hear his
voice with one ear while the tone is
switched to the other, and he will not
change the level of his voice as the
tone is switched back and forth. If
he is deaf In one ear, he will raise his
voice every time the tone sounds in
his normal ear.
When the tone Is switched on and
off both ears, q person with normal
hearing will raise his voice each time
the tone is turned on, while one who
is deaf will continue to read without
changing his voice.
TO detect false claim of deafness
in one ear, the tone is switched re-
peatedly back and forth between the
ears at varying intensity, and the pa
tient is asked to signal each time he
hears a sound. A truthful signal can
be made almost instantaneously, but
If the patient must stop to decide
each time in which ear he hears the
sound, much more time is required
and he quickly becomes confused,
thus betraying himself.
These tests are expected to prove
valuable In compensation cases where
loss of hearing is involved.
