Watchmakers college. Samelius, dean of American hoâ€" rologists, speaking of a bobbing pendulum timepiece, says there are less than a dozen of the clocks in the United States. m ® "I operate the bobbing clock jointed doll, not more than three inches high and seated in a swing," Samelius said. "I hope that some collectors‘ study group will be able to put me on the trail of the missâ€" ing doll." ® He explained that the bobbing pendulum operates in a vertical motion with the weight suspended on a helical spring. "The clock is kept in motion by a regular esâ€" capement through a lever connectâ€" ed with the spring; this lever gets its energy from the escape wheel," he said. In the ordinary clock, according to Samelius, the pendulum is susâ€" pended with a thin leaf spring and the pendulum is kept in motion by a lever that receives its energy from the escape wheel. _ This particular item of the rare watch and clock collections of Samelius and the Elgin Watch Co. was patented Dec. 14, 1886, by the Ansonia Clock Co., now of Ansonâ€" Unusual as well as historic watches and their histories will be presented by Mr. Samelius at the approaching meeting, the first of 1947, arranged by Mrs. Theodore L.
