Washington.--The Horologlcal Institute of America announced at Its annual meeting in the National Academy of Sciences building that plans are under consideration to erect in Washington a $1,000,000 "Time Temple." The building would become the national educational center for the science of horology, and would contain a great horological library and masterpieces of the watchmaker's craft. A nucleus for the exhibit In the proposed time building is BOW being shown, comprising the collection of 30" watches, valued at $30,000, from the estate of the late James Ward Packard, automotive engineer and inventor. These watches- represent masterpiece* of the watchmaker's art Several of the watches are 53-jeweled, and all represent the finest achievements- In the manufacture of accurate and complicated' timepieces. An astronomical watch of extraordinary intricacy, valued at $7,000, keeps track of the seconds, tell j the day, the week, month and year, the mean solar time and' the apparent solar time, and the time of sunrise and sunset each day. The watch adjusts Itself automat!*- cally at the end of each month, making the correct change of 28. 30 or Si: days, as may be required, and automatically adding a day for leap year. In the back of the watch is a miniature sky dotted with gold stars. The mechanism of the works is so fine- that these stars change with each season. The Institute has started a survey to determine the feasibility of securing funds for a building and for an endowment to support a larger and more active institute which now functions as s, member of the national reselrch council. A campaign to arouse public Interest and to secure new members along with an endowment i® one of the objectives of the institute. o l d Tale# Interesting Bits of New* Tahn the Column* of ||w ijlaiadealer Fifty ami *» , Tw®nty-fiv# Year* r\ " AM* . .
