SmHh A Lipaoomb, Aqanti Electric Motors Run by the Sun Fur nish Light and Power. Electric power from sunlight appears more wonderful than harnessing the streams of wind. Yet we know some thing of the vast heat of the sun. Solar engines for operating pumps have been In use In different parts of the earth for several years now, and their value In warm climates, where the number of days of clear sunshine averages high, must steadily Increase. One of the most successful of these solar machines Is located near Los An geles to Irrigate fruit land, says a writer In St. Nicholas. An automatic stand carrying great reflectors follows the course of the sun as regularly as the best telescope ever made, and the sun’s rsys sre thus reflected on s cen tral point, where the boiler of s small angina Is located. Within an hour aft er sunrise the heat of the snn raises ths temperature of the water to tbs boiling point and thr - creates steam, and ths pumping mtu uiuery begins Its day’s work and keeps it up until sun down. The power of the sun for heating has only been faintly appreciated by scien tists in tbs past, but ths prediction la mads now that if all ths coal should give out ws would soon be able to run much of our machinery from ths pow er of ths sun. yirith BOO mirrors prop- oily arranged to focus ths rsys upon one point a temperature of mors than 1,000 degress has been obtained. This almost equals one-fifth ths highest tem perature recorded by the electric fur nace, which is considered today the moot powerful heating apparatus over A# these is po limit to the Proposition to Increase Efficiency of College Inetruotion. To broaden the minds of both stu dents and professors In American col leges Professor Rudolf Tombo, Jr., reg istrar of Columbia university, has a unique plan modeled on a similar one now In use in Germany. He expects to propose it to the As sociation of American Universities at that body’s next meeting. “The education of the average college student lacks broadness,’’ said Profess or Tombo to a New York Evening Mall reporter. “Both undergraduates and professors are confined to the limits of their own institutions of learning. It <s the duty of InstrHotors to Impart to students not only book knowledge, but the learning that comes only through experience. “Professors who spend their lives shut up la ods college amid the same surroundings do not acquire -a large grasp on life and methods in other communities. Not having this wide range of experience, they are unable to Impart it to the students. The result Is that the education of the young men In our universities lacks range. “I know of but one way to correct (bis evil. Let professors and instruct ors circulate between colleges. Say, for Instance, let a man spend a year at Yale, and then a year at Harvcrd. and then perhaps a year at Leland Stan ford. Such an interchange of profess ors would tend to broaden ths minds of the instructors and students as well. “Tbs teachers would be enabled to observe methods and conditions In widely differing parts of the country and thus would get a grip on the ne cessities In ths communities In which they were situated. 1 bsllsvs by this method, which would ho o practical amslgomstloo of the Improvements and ideas of ths whole collegiate kingdom of ths Unit ed SUtes, that wo would obtain tbs acme of rooulto. “A similar plan between Franco and this oountry la being talked of, and al ready our profomom Interchange with these of Germany.
