MEMORIAL FOR
 WOMEN IN WAR
Rcd Gross Building Will Con-
 memorate SGYics

Washington. Jan. 27. R-The service and sacrifice of American women in the world war will be commemorated in g half million dollar Red Cross building to be erected here during the coming spring and summer.
 Plans for the new white stone building have been approved b., the house and senate committees, the secretary of war and officials of the Red croas and work is ex- pected to start at once. Across the entrance will be the inscrip- ton: Memorial to the American Women of the World War"
 The building will serve as demonstration laboratory in which Red Cross members of chapters throughout the country will be shown the many branches of Red Cross relief work and how such work may be properly conducted.
 The building will cost $546.O00. Of this amount the government has dPpTOpIlhlCu $loO,uVV dAu tlAC AioucC has before 1t a bill calling fo" an additional appropriation of $50.000. The remainder of the cost has been raised by the Red Cross from pri vate subscriptions. The memorial plans were started about four years ago when congress made the original $15O.0O0 appropriation with the suggestion that the Red Cross raise like sum.
 Among the leaders in Red Cross work who probably will attend the dedication of the new memorial after its completion are Mrs. Henry R. Req of Pittsburgh, first Red Cross field director in charge of relief work for war wounded at Walter Reed hospital here, and Mrs. August P.

Pacific Cost Forecast Includes
 Notice Of Frost Prevention

Washington, 0IThe weather bureaus frost forecasting service in the Pacific coast fruit belt, which enables orchardists to light their oil heaters and save their crops. is be- ing extended to smoke" forecasting for the benefit of nearby cities.
 With the demonstration in recent years of the amazing accuracy of the frost forecast service, which is maintained jointly by the weather bureau and the orchardists. con- fidence in the artifcal heating of orchards has grown until now it is utilized on tremendous scale.
 In the citrus industry alone. which brings California $100.000. 900 a year, 2,500,000 oil heaters are used to protect about 50,000 acres of orange and lemon trees. Although these heaters have been greatly inn proved in the last few years, they give off clouds of soot which. drift ing into cities. cause anguish to housewives and financial loss to merchants.
 Although thousands of suggestions have been made and numerous pat ents obtained. the records in the of flee of J. B. Kincer, chief of the division of agricultural meteorology of the weather bureau, shows no satisfactory substitute for the oil heaters. So the new smoke forecast ing service has been undertaken to make the best of what appears to be a necessary evil.
 The frost and smoke forecasts are issued late in the day whenever dan

gerous temperatures arc indicated and are distributed by telephone and radio in ample time to permit the orchardists to light their heaters. Eight experts are employed in this forecasting. under the direction of F. D. Young. the meteorolostst who began it single handed. They base their calculations on study of the regular daily weather map in con- junction with hydrometric formula which takes into consideration To- cal humidity and temperature con- ditions.
 In one season, during which he is- sued 96 forecasts. Young has been within two degrees of accuracy 94 per cent of the time. Many of his warnings predicted low tempera- lures in terms sof fractions-27 l-2 degrees. for instance-and 6S of the 96 were precisely accurate. while Is others were less than one degree away from the actual point at which the mercury stopped descending in the thermometer. His largest error in that year was five degrees, and that is one incident in his life which he finds 1t hard to forget.
 Most of the cold snaps which threaten the California fruit crop develop when an area of low pres sure moves out of Arizona or south ern California and an area of high The frost forecasters remain in this region until the danger passes in February, and then they move north into the deciduous fruit sec tion of Washington and Oregon.

 Echo Her at the rect of bad aeeus- tics. When sound waves - q speakers volce CT notes of music strike the walls and gro reflected back into . chamber. their echoes conflict with the new. original sounds and confusion results.
 ITO absorb any appreciable amount of sound energy" the bu- sreau investigators found, "a plaster must possess a~porous surface of such . nature that the sound will penetrate into the plaster and be changed t to some other form of energy. The hard, nonporous sur- face possessed by the ordinary i, sanded plaster or by the line- gypsum white finish coat does n6t have this porosity."
 Examination of several acousti- cal plAsters on the market which possess the desired property of porosity disclosed that they were difficult to apply. 90 something bcttsfwas sought. The result of that search ,s described by the bureau as follows:
 By adding small amounts of alum or aluminium aulphate and a carbonate to the calcined gypsum sand dry mix. 1t has been found that q plaster may be prepared which possesses the desired charac- teristic of surface porosity and which may be easily worked and applied. When. this plaster is .wetted, the alum and carbonate re- .act to form carbon dioxide. which ] is entrapped in tho body of the plaster in the form of countless minute bubbles of gas
 When the plaster is applied to water absorptive backing. such as an ordinary scratch or brown coat of plaster, the excess water in the wet acoustical plaster ta partially removed by the absorp- tive effect of the backing and the water films surrounding the gas bubbles are broken, leaving a large number of communicating small pores throughout the plaster"

Change of Scenery Is

 Countless thousands can be trans- ported easily to new location where some orchardist or farmer wants better pollinization and every body profits in the transaction. Topp points out.
 The 15.000 beekeepers in Califor- mia derived a revenue from honey of about $1,50O.000 last year.
