Today's Science
BY DAVID DIETZ

TWO professors at the University of Heidelberg
III Germany gave the world the key to the
secrets of the universe. By reading the meaning of
the dark lines in the spectrum of the sum- they
accelerated the progress of science and fastened
the march of civilization which today rests in
large part upon foundation of scientific achieve
ment.
Joseph Fraunhofer, famous instrument maker of
Munich, had shown in 1914 that when sunlight was
passed through a prism and the resulting rainbow
of spectrum examined with little telescope, the
magnifed spectrum was seen to be crossed with
hundreds of black lines of varying thcknesses and
intensities. He found these black lines in the
spectrum of moonlight and the light of the planets,
light which, of course, is reflected sunlight
Many astronomers and physicists Immediately
took up the study Of spectra But for almost half
century the mystery of the dark lines in the spec
trum of the sun continued to elude the grasp Of
those studying them. Then in 1859, the two Heidel-
berg professors solved the mystery. Their names
were Kirchof and Bunsen
EIRST o. ALL Kirchof and Bunsen demonstrated
l. that when the light from solid source as for
example that from glowing piece of iron, was
examined with a spectroScope, the combination
of prism and little telescopes was named the re-
sulting spectrum was continuous band of colors
They also showed that similar band, known as
continuous spectrum. was obtained when the source
OF light was glowing liquid, for example, molten
iron, glowing gas under very high pressure.
They showed next that the source of light was a
vapor at low pressure, as for example the vapor
formed by putting little sodium into gas fame
the resulting spectrum series of isolated bright
light spectrum.
They showed further that each chemical element
had a distinctive bright line spectrum which al
ways served a positive of identifying it.
Here tool Of immense value to the chemist
Amounts Of a chemical element too small to be
identified by ordinary chemical means could be
traced instantly with the spectroscope.
IT HEY showed that when the light from a solid
n source was allowed to pass through gas before
reaching the spectroscope, the result spectrum
like that of the with continuous band of colors

more natural than that President Wilson should con-

all for it, though the "Jefersonian doctrine of

what war and death really mean.
Thousands of the enemy were
killed by her patriotic tips and as
many were moved down by the
guns of the enemy.
You can easily see that this
story is a strong one and makes
no compromise.
There is only one slight weak
ness to the story. 1t is a Holly
wood ending done in England.
Marg is not shot by firing squad
as Marshall takes all the blame
of making her a spy.
The photography and sound is
the best 1 have encountered in

British have the realism which
we seem afraid to photograph.

A FTER reading and hearing so
IA much in praise of the Gau-
mont British-produced war movie,
Il Was a Spy" I asked the Fox
exchange here to give me a pri-
vate screening of this picture the
other afternoon.
On several occasions I have be-
come so excited at picture shows
that I have eaten my fingernails,
but this is the first time in my
life that 1 became so excited that
1 broke the shoestring on my
right shoe.
1 wanted to see Il Was a Spy"
to compare it with Henry VIII"
and also to study American and
foreign methods in making spy
pictures.
"Maedchen in Uniform" was
and is a German masterpiece, and
THE Life of Henry VIII" was
voted one of the ten best of last
year by critics all over the coun-
try because of the magnificent
performance of Charles Laughton
as the much-married monarch.

His biggest play for votes, how
ever, is directed at the ex-service
men. He doesn't confne himself
to the World war, but has become

spokesman for veterans of all
wars and the organized auxiliary
bodies.
Another distinction falls to the
now senior senator He is the
outstanding statesman elevated
during the Ku-KluX Khan era in
Indiana who was not indicted,
never went to prison or resigned
his office to escape such fate.

Il IL the senate by former Cover
nor Ed Jackson, who pleaded the
statute of limitations to avoid
standing trial on the charge of
conspiracy to bride another for
mer Governor-Warren T. Nc

Both Governor Jackson and
Senator Robinson were backed in
their political aspirations by D.

gon of the K. K K. and now serv-

death of Senator Samuel RalSton,
Democrat. Many had expected
the Governor to name former
Senator Albert ]. Beveridge to the
place, since he had been the Re-
publican nominee defeated by
Senator Ralston in the previous
campaign.
Governor Jackson himself was
said to have favored still another
to fill the vacancy, until Steve"
changed his mind.
At any rate, Senator Robinson
got the senatorship and has held
on to it through two elections.

third test, provided the Repub-

ton.

These principals give you one
of the strongest first line dra-

CENATOR ROBINSON was
~ born in Pickerington, O.,
March IL, 1881. According to
biographers in one of the refer
ence works, which praises every
body:
His boyhood was one of self
directed effort and industrious APP
plication toward the goal of a
better education and the opportu-
mites of a professional career"
1t says that in 1901 he was
graduated from Ohio Northern
university and subsequently took
up sales management and pub
licity work"
After he removed to Indian
apolis in 1905, he completed law
course at the Indiana law school.
Admitted to the bar in 1910, he
became a member of the firm of
Robinson, Symmes & Maish, now
Robinson, SymmeS & Nelson.
In 1914 he was elected a state
senator and became Republican
floor leader and for a time presi-
dent pro tenn.
He became a pronounced ad-
vocate of prohibition, and is one
of the staunch drys in the United
States senate" his biographer
says.
During the World war, he was
first lieutenant in the Three
hundred thirty fourth infantry,
later being promoted to captain.
He sailed for France Sept. 1, 1918,
was transferred to the Thirty
ninth infantry and promoted to
major. He spent eleven months
with the army of occupation on
the Rhine.
When he returned, Governor Nc
Cray appointed him judge of the
