footcandles are available in a given room heat rays and noses professor sir leonard hill of lon don hs been telling the world that there are noseopening and nose- ciosing rays both infrared the sun bright lamps coal fires and gas flames are noso openers while all dark sources of heat aro nose shut ters hill even found a noseclosing effect at a distance of forty feet in a 300watt gasfilled incandescent lamp with a screen of cellophane interposed he covered a hole in a piece of card board with tva square inches of the horny layer of the skin and found that it shut the side of the nose to which it was exposed even when held in front of the face at a distance of tmentyseven feet from this particular lamp these conclusions were so startling that the department of scientific and industrial research and the medical research council of england decided to repeat hills experiments hill proved to be wrong nature has fortunately provided us with two nostrils says the author of the slightly scornful report and it is possible to breathe through the one and at the same time to utilize the other for measuring inspiratory and expiratory pressures so the somewhat skeptical experimenters connected the second nostril by a rub ber tube with a sensitive pressure- measuring instrument which mads a record on a moving chart in a dark room blindfolded subjects sat close to a dull electric fire or an electrically heated panel that did not glow at all fhey closed one nostril with the connection leading to the in strument and breathed through the other in another room records were taken without their knowledge now and then an electric lamp screened by glass was svitched on and off from outside the room to illuminate faces no evidence was found that the lamp acted as a nose opener this was true even when some subjects were tested who had difficulty in breathing because of abnormal air passages professor hill objected blindfold ing was wrong he argued it hujht have inhibited the subjects the testing committee started a new series of experiments blind persons were now selected because they were obviously uninhibited by light more over they were tested in an aircon ditioned room so that the temperature and humidity could be controlled seated in a comfortable armchair and screened from drafts and most of the rooms light each blind subject faced one of a pair of electric fires at a dis tance of g feet o inches the testers were diabolical enough to run tho fires silently on a trolley behind screens of tin and wood contrived so that the subject could be irradiated by each fire in rrn onj fire was very bright and the other very dull thirty blind men thus exposed eight or nine minutes to the bright fire three minutes to the dull one showed no difference in their reactions so far as noseopening and noseclosing were concerned it remains for vjs to state that we have found noseclosing to occur not only with a dull electric fire but also with a bright electric fire and mir- abile dictu with the clinical gas lamp which is esoecially commended by sir leonard hill concludes the report undersea eyeglasses dr robert e cornish of the in stitute of expermental bology of the university of california finds no dif ficulty in reading newsprint under ater thanks to glasses of his own design goggles for divers are no thing new their glasses arc simply small window panes without any re fracting properties cornishs on the other hand are true lenses that bend tho light rays just as he wants them to bend to improve seeing in the journal of scientific instru ments dr cornish tells how he came to resort to lenses most of our focus ing for good seeing is done with he cornea or outer transparent coating of the eyeball and very little with the socalled crystalline lens light usually passes through air when it strikes the watery liquid with which the eye is filled it is bent or focused but in water there is no proper bending or focusing water without water within is the reason there must be a difference between the two bending or refracting media this explains why to swimmers who keep their eyes open under water every thing is a blur it also explains why ordinary goggles or window glass im prove vision between the glass and the cornea is ai- so long is we have air and water seeing is fairly good but reasoned dr cornish why not treat the eye under water as if is vision were defective and prescribe lenses for it just as an oculist would he did so with the result noted such lenses should have value in saving life where it is
