Tf CAMBRIDGE, MASS.--Methods of creating "sun power" by converting the tremendous amount of solar energy into some form in which man can use it as a source of power will be the goal of a comprehensive program of chemical, electrical and mechanica'l research to be undertaken at the? Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Enabled by a $647,700 gift from Dr. Godfrey L. Cabot of Boston, the research will be devoted specifically to a search for direct means of converting the sun's radiant energy knee and thigh areas.

While scientists at Technology will concentrate on direct physical and chemical methods of using solar energy, research workers at Harvard university, which received a similar grant from Dr. Cabot last year, are making a pioneering study of the possibilities of speeding up the growth of trees, and thus "streamlining" the conversion of sunlight into forms suitable for human use. Great Potential Power. In announcing the gift, Dr. Karl T. Compton, M. I. T. president, commented on the enormous potential power of solar energy, pointing Out that heat from the sun reaches the earth in the temperate zones at an average rate of approximately 4,000,000 calories per square yard daily. In the three months of greatest sunshine an acre of land, he estimated, receives directly from the sun an amount of heat equivalent to that which would be produced by the burning of about 250 tons of first-class coal. i "The store of energy in our familiar fuels, while great, is not inexhaustible," he continued, fc pointing out the importance of such research. A primary object of the project will be to determine whether use of solar energy is economically feasible and practical. Solar energy devices already proposed and studied elsewhere will be evaluated with this point of view in mind. The second aspect will consider chiefly the feasibility of developing new conversion equipment using phenomena r tinder study which hold promof jaltimately being m now ise solution of this problem.

Y.--Breeding for increased content is indicated as a definite possibility by experiments on corn reported by Drs. L. F. Randolph and David B. Hand of Cornell university. The vitamin A content of corn and other vegetables depends on the amount present of* certain yellow pigments, the carotinoids. Amount of the carotinoids in turn depends on the hereditary makeup of the plant; it is a Mendelian trait. Doctors Randolph and Hand bred strains of yellow corn to increase the number of chromosomes in each qell, bearing the hereditary units or genes. When they doubled the chromosome numbers (and therewith doubled the gene numbers) they obtained marked increases in the vitamin A activity. Giant Race Lived in Swamps of the Coal ^fXIMISnC FAEMCB fce was a jolly, good-humored farmer. Nothing could upset him. One day be was sitting on the roof of the burn watching the waters of a flood! swirl past him. A gloomy neighbor rowed over to his perch. "Hallo, Ted!" groaned the neighbor. "AJ1 your hens washed away this morning?" "Yes," replied the farmer cheerfully; "but the ducks can swim, you know." "Ah, but the apple trees and^all that are gone, aren't they?" "Yes," admitted Ted; "but tile crop would have been a failure, anyway." "I see," persisted the neighbor, "that the water is over your windows." "That's^ right," replied the optimistic farmer, "but they've needed cleaning for weeks." FLORALLY SPEAKING Bob--My health is failing me, Miss Sharpe--I'm a fading flower. Miss S.--You're a blooming idiot, Mr. Sapp. No Warning Mama--I think Jimmy wants to propose to Betty, and he doesn't know we're on this balcony. We shouldn't listen. You'd better whistle to him. Papa--Why should I? Nobody whistled to warn me. Try It Oil He--And so you think women have great strength of mind? Do you be- 'lieve that any woman would do as Caesar did and refme a crown? She--I think so. Of course, she might try it on to see how it looked. Look at Grandpa "Hunter," said his mother, "every time you are naughty I get another gray hair." "Then," said Hunter, "you must have been a terror when you were little, just look at grandpa." Cocktail Culture Bunchuck--I suppose they slftve cocktails at banquets to make the speakers witty? Dzudi--No; it's to make the other people think the speakers are witty. Limited Experience Harriet--Would you refuse to go out with a man who had made just one mistake? Mabel--Sure. Who wants a man with as little experience as that? Train Service ' Stranger--How's your train service on this line? Native--Well, they advertise one train a day--but you know how them advertisements exaggerate. Mr. and'Mrs. R. E.

" HOW SHE WORKS COLOGNE, GERMANY.--A race of giants that lived in the Coal age swamps is described by Dr. P. Guthorl of the Saarbrucken School of Mines. They were creatures with, jointed bodies like the lobsters and" insects of today, and apparently. were evolutionally midway between the lobster tribe and " thousand-leggers" or myriapods. But they were very much bigger than any modern lobster or thousand- legger. None of the fossils thus far found is entire, but from the fragmentary remains Dr. Guthorl estimates a three-foot length a6 not uncommon; and one specimen from a coal bed in the Netherlands appears to have been five or six feet long in life. This particular type of fossil has never been found in coal beds outside of Europe. It bears* the scientific name Arthropleura, and it lived about 250,000,000 years ago. 4 Air-Conditioned Mill* JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH A^Hu CA.--Air-conditioning of the Hercules shaft of the East Rand Propria etary mine, one of the world's greatest sources of gold, has enabled operators to take 50 per cent more gold ore from'this shaft at no increase in operating cost.
