—Dietz on Science— WEATHER STUDY TO BE MADE ON MOONTAIN PEAK Scientist Who Evolved Theory of Cycle to View Sun Spots. BY DAVID DIFTZ Bcripp*-I!o *rd Snrnct Editor CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 25 —At the same time that Dr. Chr.Jes G. Abbot, secretary of the Smithsonian in.'-titution, was telling the National Academy of Science in session here, cf his discovery that weather went in twenty-three-year cycles, another member of the Smithsonian staff was making himself at home upon the mountain top where, according to many biblical scholars, Moses climbed to receive the Ten Commandments. There is a real connection between the two events, for Dr. Abbot's thir-ty-year study of weather has depended upon data collected by lonely watchers upon distant mountain tops. Harlan H Zodtner is the American astronomer who has just settled down with his wife and children in a stone house upon the peak of Mt. St. Katherine upon the Mt. Sinai peninsula. it is this mountain, rather than the nearby Mt. Sinai which many think is meant in the biblical account. Aided by Monks Mr. Zodtner's nearest neighbors are the monks of the Mt. Sinai monastery, one of the oldest Christian organizations in the world. The monastery stands upon the slopes of the mountain, it was the monks who built both the observatory and the house for Mr. Zodtner, as well as a road to it. Thirty years ago, Dr. Abbot became convinced that the sun’s radiation of heat was not constant but variable. He became convinced that these variations were responsible for terrestial weather. By 1910 he had perfected an instrument for the measurement of the rate at which the sun radiated energy. This instrument is known as the silver-disc pyrheliometer. More than seventy observatories in all parts of the world are now equipped with standardized copies of this instrument provided by the Smithsonian Institution. Under Dr. Abbot’s supervision, mountain top observatories were established to make daily measurements of the suns' heat. These are located at Table Mountain, Cal., and Mt. Montezuma, Chile. Goes Mountain Hunting Alfred F. Moore of the Smithsonian staff was sent to find a third site. First he climbed Mt. Togo, a volcanic peak in the Cape Verde Islands. Next he climbed five peaks in South Africa, but none of them proved satisfactory. Finally he located Mt. St. Katherine. It is believed to be the drvest accessible spot in the eastern hemisphere. There is also a minimum of dust. Consequently, it is hoped that extremely accurate measurements will be obtained. Studies Sun Spots Dr. Abbot, working for many years to correlate the earth’s weather with the sun, has been interested in the solar output of energy more than in the sun spots. It is interesting therefore to note that the latest development in his work is to find a relationship between weather and sun spots. Analyzing his data with a complex calculating machine of his own invention, the periodometer, he finds the weather repeating itself every twenty-three years. This is twice the sun spot cycle of eleven and half years or the magnetic cycle discovered by Dr. George Ellery. Dr. Abbot's work is bound to increase the interest in sun spots. These are studied now by many observatories in all parts of the United States. Daily photographs of the sun spots are made at the Mt. Wilson observatory and many other observatories in Europe, India and Africa. To date, however, they have been chiefly of interest to the astronomer. It may be that the day is coming when the weather man will have to add a telescope to his forecasting equipment.

"The hour of the world's greatest need is the time of the church's greatest opportunity.” Dr. William P Dearing. president of Oakland City college, said in an address to the business men's class of the Central Avenue M. E. church last night at the annual banquet. ’The church may be ’busted’ of material things, but it has in abundance the things that this world needs at the present time.” he said. The banquet was served in the church by members of the women's Bible class. A quarter million dollars in taxes was paid by Alabama pipe, cigar and cigaret smokers in Mav, 1933.

Photographer of Beauties Makes Imperfections Motif of Studies
Waxman Says That Models Wear Real Jewels in His Pictures. BY GERALDINE SARTAIN 9 Timet Special Writer NEW YORK. Nov. 23 —On one wall was a study of Myrna Loy, lights and shadows falling so that it resolved itself into a picture of a passionate mouth. Across the room, looking out from a dark frame, lips curling over bared teeth, the haughty, gleaming smile of Gloria Swanson. It had a tigerish, feline quality. “I'll bet La Swanson didn’t like that photograph; it’s too revealing,” someone commented. “On the contrary, she loved it,” Henry Waxman said. Both photographs pointed Waxman's theory that a beauty can be made more subtly beautiful, more provocative, by a departure from the simple rule of reproducing her perfections. “Make It the Motif’ ‘‘Choose one characteristic, often an imperfection, and build your photographic study from than- Make it the motif of your picture,” Mr. Waxman propounds. The late Flo Ziegfeld employed Waxman to mirror the glorified girls for posterity. Now he’s an advertising photographer, making beauty so alluring that it will sell cigarets, tooth paste, limousine bodies or ginger ale. It was an exciting moment in the studio. While the props were being arranged, assistants rushed around frantically. One is an expert on flower arrangement, another on drapery. Mr. Waxman himself specializes in color work, in catching the blooded rhue of the ruby, the gleam of the diamond, or the highlight on a turquoise velvet train. Officer on Guard A model stood dripping with jewels —slave bracelets, diamond clips, earrings, finger rings. Her gown was by a swanky new designer. The cigaret box lying on the table beside her was from the most expensive Madison avenue shop. Bronze calla lilies in the vase in the background were especially made to order for this picture. An armed policeman stood guard, sent by the firm of jewelers to protect the $50,000 worth of precious gems lent for the picture. Mr. Waxman insists on realism in the use of any prop. He wants emotion in any picture, too, so the model is usually worked up designedly to a nervous pitch of excitement. Everything was ready. Elaborate lighting and the color camera came into action. The half dozen persons in the studio breathed a little hard. Then Waxman pressed the bulb, and the work of a week’s detailed preparation was over. ‘No Mistakes Allowed’ "You can’t make a mistake in these color shots” the photographer, who spent seven years in Hollywood recording the beauty of cinema stars, volunteered. ‘‘No retouching here. It’s right or it's wrong on the one shot.” Mr. Waxman's study of the late Rudolph Valentino that fills one wall in his reception room Is famous. So are his studies of Betty Wyman, blond queen of the fashion models, who can wear ermine and velvets with the aristocratic nonchalance of a queen. His own vote for America’s most beautiful woman is Dolores Del Rio because of her “vitality and the amazing color of her personality.” And a close runner-up is Garbo, because of her “fragility and mysticism.” Democratic Worker Is Killed By Times Spreinl DANVILLE.

COLDS Go Thru 3 Stages —and They're Far Easier Relieved in the First than in the Second or Third! A cold ordinarily goes through 3 stages: the Dry Stage, the first 24 hours; the Watery Secretion Stage, from 1 to 3 days; and the Mucous Secretion Stage. The first stage is the time to "nail” a cold. Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine is the treatment for colds. It is expressly a cold remedy and not a preparation good for half a dozen other things as well. It is direct and internal which is what a cold, an internal infection, requires. It is also complete it does the four things necessary. It opens the bowels, combats the cold germs and fever in the system, relieves the headache and grippv feeling and tones and fortifies the entire system. Anything less than that is inviting trouble. Get Grove s Laxative Bromo Quinine at any druggist, 30c and 50c. Ask for it by the full name and refuse a substitute.—Advertisement.
