Dr. Paul R. Heyl, physicist at the United States bureau of standards, has decided to weigh the earth, the sun. moon and stars. He is making his tests th a dark cave 35 feet beneath the basement of the bureau of standards. He has suspended two accurately weighed gold balls from the end of an aluminum bar, which In turn Is suspended by a light wire that allows the apparatus to rotate. Thus the balls follow a circular course much like the orbit of the earth In its rotation around the sun. The appatatus is being operated by Dry Heyl from another room In order not to affect the experlmeat by the beat from the body.

I All Human Relations Will Improve With Progress in Social Sciences < By WALTER DILL SCOTT, President Northwestern University. RESEARCH in the natural sciences has been effective in aiding the race to adjust jtself to its physical environments. No such discovery of truth in the social sciences has been made in aiding the race to adjust itself to its human environments. Men are not now working together happily and effectively. There is said to be a lack of control in the home, restlessness in the school, apathy in the church, shirking in the shops, dishonesty in the counting houses, grafting in politics, crime in the city, and Bolshevism threatening all our institutions. All our human relations will be improved as rapidly as we make progress in' the social sciences, and I am convinced that our universities will make as great a contribution in the social sciences during the Twentieth century as they did by the discovery of truth in the natural sciences during the Nineteenth century. We may expect the most helpful contributions to the betterment of human relations from universities possessing favorable characteristics: First, the university must be untrammeled by traditions or superstitions, by politics or cults; but must be animated by a love for truth, and the members of the teaching and research staff must be zealous in their pursuits of truth in their respective fields, and should be sympathetic with research and investigation in fields even quite remote from their own. Second, the university must sustain a graduate school and a group of professional schools, all in intimate contact with city life. . Third, the university must be ins'pired with the ideals of religion. The religious interpretation of the universe offers the only possible hope for improvement. Faith in the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God provides the only basis for stable human relations. You Can Easily Have a Trained-Pig Act All Your Own —and Here’s How By C. R. COOPER, in “ Lions ’n’ Tigers ’n’ Everything.* Likewise the pig which you’ve seen squealing in the wake of the clown in the circus. The secret? Simply that his hoglets has been taken from his mother at birth and raised on a bottle. His feeding has been timed so that it comes during circus hours. The pig follows the clown because be knows he’s going to get a square meal. A pig isn’t supposed to have much intelligence. Perhaps he hasn’t—out you can have a trained-nig act all your own very easily. ; Simply build a pen leading to a set of stairs which lead in turn to a chute, the chute traveling down into another closely netted enclosure. In this enclosure put a bucket of favorite pig food. Then turn the pigs loose and let them make their own deductions. First of all, the pigs will try to reach the food by going through the netting. That’s impossible. So at last they turn to the runway, go up the steps, hesitate a long while, then finally slide down the chute and get what they’re after. Then—here’s the strange part of it: after a week or 50, remove the food. The pigs will keep on shooting the chutes just the same. By some strange form of animal reasoning, the pleasure of food has become associated with that exercise of sliding down that incline. Punishment of Criminal Always Wrors, but Society Must Protect Itself "v CLARENCE DARROW, in New York World. Punishment is always wrong. It brutalizes those who inflict it and those who receive it. There is only one motive for it and that is revenge, in which there can be no justice for it is based on hatred, which is degrading. That punishment is not much of a deterrent is clear from the fact that our prisons are full of repeaters and that spectacular crimes are followed by imitations. And the idea of reformation is equally absurd. Man works according to his structure. He never reforms because he cannot His intrinsic character is fixed. All of which doesn’t change the fact that society must defend itself against the criminal —sometimes against the saint—whether it be worthy of defense or not But all we need to do is to isolate the offender. In fact that’s all we can do. If scientists were no wiser than legislators, we would still be punishing the insane, the idiots, even the sick. We have abandoned such magical treatments. And some day we shall treat the criminal with as much derstanding. In All Future Reclamation Projects the States Should Contribute By SECRETARY WORK, U. S. Department of Interior. The obligations of settlers on existing reclamation projects should be adjusted and a basis provided for future payments. This will require a reappraisal of areas to determine their ability to produce profitable crops under irrigation. On all projects undertaken hereafter the state in which the development is located should participate in the selection of settlers and the development of farms. The states should not be requind to contribute to construction costs, but should be required to contribute to the fund provided for advances to settlers for farm development as they now contribute to the construction of roads and to agricultural education. A fund should be provided from which money can be advanced to help worthy, needy settlers improve and equip their fauna. Such j advance should bear interest, and, for permanent improvements, should extend oter long periods. Four per cent is suggested as the interest rate. s A College of Athletes'Who Are Not Primarily Students Is a Damage By DEAN H. E. HAWKES, Columbia University. There is a differenceof opinion as to whether even the most desirable and successful athletic policy brings to a college the kind of students that the college meet desires. Os course, successful athletics attract athletes, but a college of athletes who are not primarily students is a damage instead of a blessing. In fact, 1 am inclined to think that among the elements that go to make the solid reputation of a college, athletic supremacy comes far down on the list in the minds of those, both young and old, whose judgment counts. This means that the cultivation of athletics in the college should be in the interest of the part that it plays in the education of both players and spectators. Unless athletics can take its place in the picture, in its proper perspective, and in co-operative relations with the rest of the college, trouble is certain to arisfi. Rear Admiral Bradley A Fiske, Retired—Not only do women recoil from even the idea of war, but the extreme delicacy of their nervous systems make* many of them incapable of even thinking about war in a rational way. The proof of this is the obvious fact that most women confuse a desire for a reasonable preparedness for war with an actual intention to make war. Paul Scherdlin, France—But the striking thing is that the immense dass of insects, of which we know today a half million of r-1 nishes us with only one edible product—honey.
