CIOcktO Standardize Time
for World Urged.

Setting up OF o'clock" to serve the
whole world with millionth of second
time intervals has just been proposed by
DR.. F.. w. Lee of the United States
bureau of Mines to the American Geo
physical Union
The United States Naval Observatory
could serve as part Of such a clock he
says, by extending its present time sig
nal service to "a continuous emitted
electromagnetic wave with a cycle adj
justed to constancy by astronomical
corrections" passing around the world
"A zero. line from which to measure
time anywhere at the same unit inter
walls does not exist" he says. THE
second which once was thought to meet
our needs as the smallest unit of time
has become an Unfortunately long interval
for many physical measurements and
the millionth of second now often
proves more convenient"
A combination of constant frequen-
CIV wireless waves distributed from vari-
GUS cardinal places over the earth" he
says would serve to synchronize brod-
casting stations and keep them auto
matically on their proper wave length,
would control the speed Of scanning
disks or similar television devices and
would prove invaluable for gravity pen
dulum measurements and for seismol-
ogy. t. r. H.

Electric Exhibit
 Is Main Feature
To Occupy 4,O0O Square Feet of Floor Space During
 Farm and Home Week

Storrs, July 25 An electrical exhibit of farm and home appli- ances covering more than 14,000 square feet of floor space and complete in every detail for the purpose of showing rural dwellers how the push button is suplant- ing human muscle, will be set up in the armory of the Connecticut Agricultural College, August 4 to z, as one of the main features of Farm and Home Week. August 3 to 8.
 All of the large public utility companies in Connecticut, man. ufacturers, distributors of electri- cal farm and home appliances, the rural Identification committee of the Connecticut Farm Bureau, county identification committees and other interested agencies are cooperating with the college in making the exhibit one of the most outstanding ever in New England.
 Two kitchens complete in every respect with electrical appliances and in charge of women who will actually operate every piece of equipment in these Kitchens, will be included as part of the general exhibit. Here farm women will be in a position to see how elec- tricity may be used as a super slave" in making farm home life more attractive.
 The exhibit will include two milk rooms, .one of interest to the farmer who retails his own milk and the other for the producer who sells wholesale. Each milk

tary of congress, suggested few improvements, and from these, Barton designed the "arms of the United States" adopted on July 20, 1782.
 Such is the story of the great seal of the United States" 50 call- ed because "lesser" seal was also authorized but never executed. Then. on the adoption of the Con- stitution and the establishment of the United States of America, the great seal was placed in the cus- tody of the secretary of state, and ever since has been under his d anship. On application, Americans on sightseeing visits to the national capital, may see this symbol of the mighty authority of their government, among the ex- hibits in the department of state.
 Three times in our history it has been necessary to replace the great seal, as the result of wear. The first replacement occurred in 1841, of state. On this occasion the en- graver was guilty of a curious blunder. In place of the thirteen eagles talons, he engraved only six. In 1884, when again 1t was necessary to engrave a new seal, this error was corrected and the seal became a slight enlargement and sharpening of the original de- sign of the continental congress. In 1903 the seal was again re- newed, in close adherence to the original Barton design, the author tiles having decided that any change would break the historic continuity of this emblem of our sovereignty,
