Close on her heels came a short, middle-aged woman attendant in a filmy white garment. “The steam is hot enough?” she said with a cheery smile. . At her direction, I repaired to another all-birch chamber — the steam room. It felt as if its last occupant had been a confined loco motive, It had tiers of wooden benches, three high.

Steam sizzled upward--and I beat a hasty descent to the lowest.level bench. The attendant smiled happily and went out. After we had steamed a few minutes more she came back and motioned us to follow her into th scrubbing and shower room. She! gestured for us to lie down on wooden ‘benches. Then, soaping up a big, spongy wash rag she proceeded to wash us over, from ankle to ear. Followed an icy shower, which she insisted we stick out for several minutes. ‘ A Finn, we were told, concludes his sauna with a plunge in an icy lake or & roll in the sgow.

The receiving station is on a tall tower or even on a mountain. , -frequency radio waves are! affected In their range primarily by the refractive qualities of the lower atmosphere—just as visible light rays are. Therefore by studying their signal strength on reception, Mr. Wickizer states, it will be possible to obtain data on the relative humidity, temperature and pressure gradients of the intervening air masses. Some work in this field was done experimentally during the war by drmy aerologists. Not all of their results have yet been made publie,
