fJound-Sleep Period Less Than
Five Minutes a Night
jtxFrom 14,448 measurements of the
Kundnws of sleep of twelve young
|nen wbjects at, the Mellon Institute
fbr Industrial Research, it was found
*hat they slept without stirring for
ml average of only a little more than
Steven minutes at a time, and, in half
nf the observations, the average rest
period was less than five minutes in
length. These facts were determined
py having the subjects sleep in special
feeds equipped with apparatus that
any movement such as a
gdaange-in position of the limbs or the
Bead. The sleepers retired at eleven
o’clock' and arose at seven in the
faorning. Factors designed to pro-
Bnce sound sleep, such as quiet and
■pqA, ventilation, were carefully
Smtched. In only one of the observa
tebfiß'Was the period of quiet more
hours long. The observers

the telegrams and cables of sym
pathy from abroad. Os outstand
. ing interest is the fact that the
Japanese Ambassador, in the name
of the Japanese people, insisted that
the United States accept assistance
: from them. Chairman Payne ha 3
! disclosed that Ju3t after the dis
i aster Japan, through the American
. State Department, offered to make
a popular appeal to her people for
■ subscriptions to aid the Florida
: sufferers. The American Red
! Cross, it was stated, had not
: thought this step necessary. Sub- j
a day of hard work interfered with
sleep in at least one observation.
Some subjects rested more during the
first half of the night, while others
enjoyed greater benefits from the last
half and other periods. The tendefley
of the subjects was to exhibit less
activity during the first hour of slum
ber after settling down to rest, but
this steady rest began any time from
ten minutes to two hours after re
tiring.

Correct C-Battery Voltage
Important
Correct C-battery voltage in the
audio-amplifier circuit of any radio
receiver is important. The battery
should have the proper voltage in
order that the amplifier tubes may
asceive the correct grid bias: an in
correct value will cause distortion.
The C-battery voltage should be in
creased if tho B-battery voltage is
raised, at in the practice of adding a
power tuba in the last stage. Assum
ing that tie normal total B-battery
voltage was SO before the power tube
was added, and a 4%-volt C-battery
was used, the power tube should
have a plate voltage of 135 and at
this voltage a 9-volt Obattery must
be used. The proper CWoltage for
the tube is specified by the Ibanufac
turer and should be followed care
fully for best results.

New Hard Steel to Lower
Cost of Machinery
A new hard steel, which can be pro
duced at less cost than present alloys,
recently was developed by a steel mill
in the Pittsburgh district and given
the name of “jalcose.” Its surface is
extremely hard while the interior is
tough but ductile, making it suitable
: for automobile and machinery parts
where there is severe wear, repeated
shocks or great stresses. Because of
the comparative softness of the inte
rior it can be machined more easily
than pure hard steel.

■ dor, in addition to a substantial
- personal contribution to the relief
i fund, forwarded 10,000 yen, the

Airship’s Altitude in Fogs
Measured by Echo
Almost every aircraft is provided
with a barometer or similar Instru
ment for determining height, bat
many of these have proved unreli
able beyond. a certain altitude sad
many accidents in fogs and in dark
ness have resulted. A German |
ventor has adapted the echo method
of sounding on steamers to the air
ship and the airplane with good
suits, it is reported. The method j*
essentially the same as that used CB
water. Sound waves travel from *a
emitter on one side of the ship, strike
the ground and are reflected bade
where they are registered on a re
ceiver at the other side of the craft j
