Sir Oliver Explains Theory
That Man Is Built of Atoms
Lodge, Scientist, Predicts Day When Energy Taken
From Invisible Source Will Supply Mankind
With Force Such as Is Inconceivable To-dav
Sir Oliver Lodge was purely the
scientist in his address in the Schu?
bert Theatre last night. Those who at?
tended the meettng expecting to hear
of the survival of man were disap?
pointed. It was obvious, however, that
the audience was mainly composed of
? ? ttiTTc men and wonem.
Hi subject was the energy of the
: torn, Tho magic of his metaphor and
arm of manner threw a new light
on t ? dullei t of scient ?tic facts. He
did i it t ravi ! far in the field of specu?
lation and gave ample warning when
::,. branched away from the accepted.
T .? atom, according to Sir Oliver,
contains explosive power compared with
TXT is abut as dangerous as
COl ' .n wool.
here is intrinsic energy in its con
?: ution greater than any molecular
, ?., ..?.- known to science. It is the fun?
damental composition of matter, and,
th? re fore, of our bodies. An ?.unce of
atom b;ts more energy than 1,000 tons
of coal, and if i* could be utilized
would raise the Gi rman luivy and put it
... ton of the Scottish mountains. But
?I keep: itself quiet, he declared, and
defie: sei 'ntific invest ?gal ion,
"As yet wc have found no means of
getl ng at its energy," sai.I Sir Oliver.
??II may give us a little spontaneously,
but we do nol know hew to stimulate
it i act ?vit;,. 1 believe, however
i ihi rinsic energy some day
will be utilized, and then extraordinary
? : may happen. There are 500,
000,000 atom to the cubic inch. There
are as many ar om ; in o i himbleful oi
water as 1 re are thimblefuls of w a t'ei
in the Atlantic Ocean.
"They are Hying about like bullets ir
the air. The pressure of the air if
t ?ally i i.e bombardment of atoms. W?r

! tho wonders about u<. We are virtu?
ally built of atoms, and when we in
i investigate the atoms we really invcs
? tigate tho unit of which our bodies are
i composed."
Sir (?livor declared that the atom
now held the scientific field. It is as
true that matter is built with atoms
as that a lions?.- is built with bricks,
! he said. Ilo traced how its measure
| monts first came to lie determined by
comparing it with the spider's web,
1 spunglass, quarter fibre and soap bub?
bles. Another means of determining
its size was by spectrum analysis, \\r
said.
"The size of the atom is such that it
always will elude our senses and never
bo seen through a microscope, because
it is so much smaller than waves of
light. One hundred million atoms are
needed to he visible through a micro?
scope, and the smallest number of
atoms which can be detected even by
spectrum analysis is 25,000 times the
number of the earth's inhabitanl
Then Sir Olive;' 17/cceded to make
his audience laugh by saying that Jherc
was gold in sen water. They ntr^ht 1"'
: skeptical, he said, but he persisted thai
his deductions were correct, although
he would not advise any one to boat
gold mines on the strength of them, as
- there were only 50 000,000,000 atoihs of
gold in ti drop of sea water, or a
?ift ieth of a grain to the toll.
Sir Oliver prohesied that helium is
: going to be an element of importance
in the aerial navigation of the future.
Me referred to the possibilities of
obtaining quantities of it from Amer?
ican hot springs. U might have had
an appreciable bearing on the war, he
said, luid there been a knowledge o?
how to use it.

Burglars broke into the Richmond
Borough National Bank yesterday
under the very noses of the Stapk-ton
police. There was about $100,000 in
the safe, but tit" burglars got none : f
it, largely because they wasted tin 1
time hunting for il in tellers' desk
instead of doing a workmanlike job on
the safe in the first place. They ap
parently had time only lo drill two
three-quarter-inch holes in the safe
dooi before daylight overlook them.
The burglary was discovered at 5
p. in. when William Kuilman, the jani?
tor, went lo the hank to attend to the
fires, lie had been there at I a, m
for the same purpose and saw no signs
of int ruders.
The-bank is at 577 Bay Street, oppo-I
te the Stapleton railroad station, and
t!ie building ^occupies half a block.
Directly behind ?I is the police station,
so close that its windows afford a view
of the interior of the bank.
Nothing daunted by the risks and
the apparent security of the big bank,
the burglars effected an entrance by
breaking a window. The windows are
protected by iron bars, bui t he I?,: 1 -
end aboul two feet below the top of
each window. The burglars climbed to

John O. Rockefeller jr., addressing
the members of the Bible class of the!

day, deplored the possibility of a uni
vi rsal six-hour day.
"When tve hear people talking of
the six-hour day," said Mr. Rockefeller,
"we have '?> stop and wonder what'
would happen, i tell you I don't be

?.. n uch idle i ?me on our hands.
"When my children ask ine some?
times, 'Papa, A'hy an you ahva,v kept
so busy'." 1 reply, and not without a
good bit of interest and seriousnei ?,
(hat I keep busy because I realize thai
the devil has lots of work '"or idle
hands."
Favors Golden Rule in Trade
Mr. Rockefeller spoke on the val uc
of telling the truth, saying that truth?
fulness is as necessary between indi?
viduals as between nal ions, "l'm i ot
f:ii; ;,; " that tho golden ago has come
in hi; iness," he continued, "bt t despite
v hat you !" a v .- ?me men say now and
then honesty is the best policy as well
as the nee' pol icy. I know il is di ffi

pretty safe rule is to give th?' other
fellow a little the best of il when in

Store hours?9 to 5
Broadway at Ninth, New Yorji
Good morning!
This is January 26!
The weather today will
probably be fair.
Now and then a
stranger visitor
to this City and this Store enthusi?
astically bursts out in speech, say?
ing, "Well, you have
Considerable of a Store"
and not infrequently we hear some
one say of the Store, "How do you
ever conduct it?"
The above paragraph, written at
a breakfast table yesterday, was
strangely answered in yesterday's
mail from Amoy, China, received
in the first mail of the morning, as
follows:
"Tong-an, Amoy, China.
"13 December, 1919.
"I am an instructor in the above
school. During the war I read
your advertisements in the New
York Herald, sent by my home
folks.
"All of us Americans over here
were inspired by the little pieces
from home. May I tell you that,
way back as far as 1903, 1 bought
an oil stove from you for 75c. and
had it shipped to China? On the
route it was damaged, and when
we wrote home to you about it
you gave us credit for the full
amount. We repaired the stove,
and it is still in use, though it is
beginning to show its age. It
shows, however, to the Chinese
what an American business stand?
ard is and what the phrase means
when you advertise yourself as 'A
trustworthy house.'
"I wish further to add that I
bought a bathrobe in 1903, and an
overcoat in 1902, which I have
here. Great stuff they are made of.
'"Thank you for good ser?
vice and for the good example you
and your employes set us. May
America develop a spirit of true
democracy that even China may
share in its blessing. It is a fine
patriotism that you are setting in
your business methods in favor of
our old home methods."
We have acknowledged the letter
from our friend in far-off China and
thanked him for the pains he has
taken to write us.
We have letters like the above
from many parts of the world that
bring us great encouragement; and
it must be so more and more, be?
cause the Store is constantly im?
proving.
(Signed)

Swings into its Second Week
Never was such a week as this last.
Never such buying. Never so great
satisfaction expressed by the people.
And all because there never was so
GREAT a sale of furniture. And the
things that made it great were the
things that make for greatness in
everything. We'had to WORK for the
furniture for our February Sale.
There was mighty little furniture in
the country. Every shop has a long
list of unfilled orders. We have. And
the demand for furniture is growing.
War time sacrifices are no longer
necessary. There is a renewed yearn?
ing for comfort and beauty of the
home. Interest in furniture has
mounted to unprecedented heights.
Furniture was needed. We HAD to get it. We went to work as we never worked be?
fore (because when there is furniture to go around, it COMES to Wanamaker's anyhow?
?and we GOT IT. ' '
Our special purchases, added to our regular stocks, total
More than a million dollars' worth of GOOD furniture
which we are selling at savings of 10 to 33 per cent.
The QUALITY of this furniture is the world standard
set by Wanamaker's 34 years ago. The VARIETY is
tremendous. It cannot be matched anywhere else, not
even at regular prices. The SAVINGS are real and tine.
Whoever anticipates furniture needs and provides for them
in the February Sale will act with prudence and foresight.
Today there will be new lots of furniture on
the two galleries. All sold stocks will leave the
lloor tonight.
There is more waiting to come. It will differ
in style from that now on the lloor?but the styles
will be good. And the furniture will be the same
good Wanamaker quality.
There will be furniture, for the bedroom, liv?
ing-room, dining-room, library, hall, den?plenty
of it?in the woods and finishes wanted today.
There will be plenty of salespeople to
help you choose, and to give you any in?
formation desired.
You may choose now and take now,
or, if it suits you better, yon may choose
now and have your order entered a? of
February 2nd.
This is a sale of SERVICE.
Fifth and Sixth GaUeries, Nsv; Building.

If you are coming to the February Sale of Furniture
today, take the time to see these rugs. A further disloca?
tion of industry, caused by the Bolshevik invasion of West?
ern Asia, means few rugs, and few rugs mean high prices.
There are 205 rugs in this sale, all priced below present
prevailing rates.
