trtatcst peril and that of the world la Ig

there were 200,000 t'llter.vtes In our first
1,000,000 soldiers. Ignorance Is not merely
in obstacle to progress. It Is an element
at destruction It Is the fertile soil In
which Bolshevism Is bred. It Is the capital
which herded to the polls politicians of n
tips with which we are all too familiar. In
Its lees Illiterate but equally dangerous
itage It constitutes the clement to which
Btnepspers who advocate political ownership
,cf publlo utilities and the means of produc

Philadelphia, JIay 20. 1021.
During the fiscal yenr 100, 430,001
Immigrant eltens were admitted and 11,703

Measuring Altitudes
To the Kdltor of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir Please tell mo how they meaaure the
height of mountain.
WILLIAM T. MOriTON.
Philadelphia. JIay 20, 1021.
The height of mountains or other alti
tudes can be ascertained by barometric ob
servations, showing tho pressure of atmos
phere at the lower and higher levels. An
Instrument called the mountain barometer
I. graded especially for this purpose tt
can also be Cone with a leveling Instrument
and theodolite, but either way requires tech
nical knowledge.
Questions Regarding Angles
To the hdilor of the Evening rubjlo Ledger-
Bl Suppplemental to the questions asked
In mv communication of May 20 I would
ask "H. Jf " several others. '
riret. What la nn "angle of elevation"?
Second. How does It differ from an
"angle of depression"?
Third. Tou say. Letting X equal height
of balloon and Y equal th distance to the
elation due south of It, otc, etc., and then
you give the value of Y In the last pnra
graph a. 3018 47 feet, that Is, the hypotenuse
Y Is shorter than the altitude of tho trl
angle, which Is Impossible. How do you ex
plain thla? near In mind, you say that.Y
Is the distance from the balloon to the sta
tion due south of It (meanlnr the balloon).
Therefore, tt must be the hypotenuse,
t Fourth. Why do you assume that angles,
whether "even" or odd, should Indicate to a
(urvayor that tho ground on which he Is
measuring a bate lino Is a-, level plans or
otherwise.? Buppose the angle "of eleva
tion" were aay OS degrees HO minutes 10
seconds from the horizon to the balloon at
one station; would this affect tha contour
of tho ground?
Fifth. I. It not. a fact that you have con
fused "angles of elevation" with the angle,
at the upper vertlce. of the two triangles,
when In fact they are entirely different?

There are no specialists who treat bash

do out as much as possible ln tho company
of others. Practlco forgetting' yourself, and
cultivate tho habit of not thinking that
