Today's Science
by DAVID DIETZ-

CALILEO blind, no longer able to peer through
" that telescope with which he had given the
world its first knowledge of the mountains of the
moon, the satellites of Jupiter and the rings of
Saturn, sat and pondered, lonely prisoner at Ar
cetri.
But though blind, his minds eye still saw with
keener vision than that of his contemporaries. And
he pondered upon the laws of motion and paved
the way for Newton and his followers.
Modern physics with all its applications in en-
gineering may be said to have started with Calico
DR.. Harvey Brace Lemon, professor of physics at
the University of Chicago, recognized this fact when
he titled his just published survey Of modern ply
sizes From Calico to CoSmic Rays"
-Four years ago, the University of Chicago adopt
ed a new undergraduate curriculum which included
an Introductory general in the physical
sciences. All students were required to take this
The need was felt for a book on physics with
continuity designed for reading from to
within reasonable time stresSlng the source Of ma
teral phenomena. and giving interpretations in non
technical style and by homely analogy" DR.. Lemon
has proceeded to write that book
HERE is the background which every intelligent
i i person needs in order to know what is going
on in the world today. One reason many persons
had so great difficulty in understanding the essen
tials OF the Einstein theory was that they were
totally unfamiliar with the theories Of Newton which
preceded relatively.
This book begins with Calico and the principle
of inertia proceeds to Newtons laws Of motion and
so leads to the meaning of work, energy and
power.
These subjects come under the technical heading
Of Mechanics" to which the first part of the book
is devoted. The remainder OF the book is divided
into sections on Heat" Electricity and Magnet
ISM" Electricity and Matter" and Waves and
Radiation"
THE book is written in attractive and charm
i ing style. Naturally it is thorough and
technical than Socalled popular books, but its
use of mathematics is sparing and there is nothing
which should battle any reader with the equivalent
OF a high school freShmans knowledge of algebra.
A feature of the book is the illustrations. There
are many excellent diagrams, many amusing
sketches and fine photographs. A special feature
are a number Of stereoscopic photographs. These
when viewed through a StereoScope, a little spec
tacle frame with two prismatic lenses in it, assume
the appearance of three dimensions.
The book is published by the University of Chi
cago Press at IS. 1t would make splendid Christ

Your Health
: BY DIR. MORRIS FlSHHEiN :

EVERYWHERE you look today are advertisements,
II announcements and promotional material of
food faddists
To push their ideas they must have some I'M
usual notion of what happens to the food in the
human body. They do not hesitate to contradict
established facts of science and established knowl-
edge Of years.
The average human stomach reacts in a certain
definite way to most food substances. There are Of
course, variations.
The amount of time required for the stomach to
empty itself depends largely on the kind of food
put into it. Most persons have digestive time in
the stomach Of about four hours.
An investigator recently studied the digestion of
meat as protein and Of potatoes as carbohydrate
in number of invalids. He found that there is no
incompatiblity between meat and potatoes or be-
tween proteins and carbohydrates in general.
NEVERTHELESS, there are half dozen food
Y faddists who insist that it is not well to mix
proteins and carbohydrates and that such mixtures
are responsible for a large amount of Illness
The stomach, even in persons with fairly serious
illnesses, proceeds quite promptly to break up meat
hbers when they reach it. 1t also acts at the same
time on the carbohydrates.
In so persons who suffered from various chronic
diseases one-fourth of pound of hamburger steak
was digested in hours so minutes.
One-fourth of pound of hamburger steak and
one-haf Of pound Of mashed potatoes was di-
gested in hours 81 minutes. When a small
amount Of butter about three ounces was added
to this mixture the time heightened to 4 hours
minutes
A a result of all these investigations it was
found that there no evidence at all to indi-
cate that proteins and carbohydrates are incom-
patible in the stomach.
1t is quite likely that many persons over-eat and
that these persons do better with essened amount
Of carbohydrates. However control of the diet is
serious matter and it is not well for people to be
guided by those selling strange notions without
scientific background.
Finally, it is a well-established fact that nature
itself aud drata and hot
practically every food eat is a mixture of such
basic substances.
