However, the experiment is still In the laboratory stage. When the process is pcrfe.HeJ. the dust of the air end even coal dust will take part in the procedure, he said. Prof. Knipp took a vessel In which the air had been saturated with moisture.

Whvn 'he expanded the air, the moisture turned Into fog. Then he introduced the presence of dust ty lighting a match stick near the retort and allowing the carbon smoke to filter in. Immediately, the fog turned Into rain. "If the rain over the city of Chicago were right at the saturation point," Prof. Knipp said, "and we wanted rain, all we would have to do would be to blow some of the city smoke into the air."

Moreover, what Is heavy one day likely to have evaporated into vaporous nothingness the next.

After two and a half years of work, "Noah's Ark," the most ambitious production yet attempted by Warner was finished this week.

"Noah's Ark" in Its screen dramatization embraces two stories a biblical one and a modern one and between them is drawn REPORTS GAY WEEK "Tampico" Cast The complete cast engaged by THE use of the word effervescent in the description of a book Involves risks to which the critical guild has not paid enough attention. A glass of ginger ale effervesces, but alas, goes flat in the process. So does champagne and sparkling burgundy, not to mention a gin rlckey or other heady beverages.

Mr. McKenna's story is certainly served up In a hollow-stemmed glass and it bubbles all the way through. At the same time, it goes a little stale. On second reading, doubtless Mrs. Forbes' book would do no less.

I don't know, because I haven't read her book a second time. The critical criterion for a current book Is apt to be low. One reads on the covers of books that the British reviewers are constantly hailing some new pot-boiler as the novel of the century. Alas, we Americans, enthusiastic though we are, are, none the less, apt to be hypercritical. It Is partly due to the fact that we are afraid to show our enthusiasm.

The reason, of course, is that the critical guild in this country Is eagerly expectant upon the receipt of a new book, and eagerness and expectancy don't go with the blase personal attitude of the European critic, who wean a blank eye and a pale expression about the gills as though to the manner born, for all that his writing is about two degrees above the effusive estimates printed in a New York City high school Journal. Not the least of the higher critics gone noisily Pollyanna Is Mr. John Galsworthy, who has sold himself out to Trader Horn without a blush, for all that the gabby old fakir is, at least in his latest endeavor, no better than an old tramp, spinning out whoppers for the benefit of guileless critics and a public that still believes In Santa Claus.

The other night we were strollln" on the Boardwalk, first- on one foot, thtn on the other, as Is our when we were attracted to a motley crowd gathered in front of a stage on which a woman was speaking. 8h was holding a bottle In one hand and what appeared to be a cake of soap in the other. She was talking glibly, in a conversational manner, and evidently was saying somcthln? of interest ai the crowd was markedly attentive. We drew closer.

"You people are not unintelligent, but you are a most credulous lot. You beiieve everything an advertisement says. Millions of dollars are spent annually to buncombe you." She said she was a graduate of an unnamed university, and her husband was a doctor. She had made a study of the scalp and hair, and conducted not a beiuty parlor but a clinic on 5th ave. and 42d st.

It was patronized bj people who had money and were willing to pay any price so long as their skin troubles were cured. She ridiculed the makers of certain well-known, widely advertised soaps. She deprecated the use of these soaps as tending to harm the skin rather than beautify it.

Suffice It to say that the feeling persists that this pillar of the more earnest criticism has become entirely too en-thu'iastlc about things that really don't matter. I must confess that I liked Mr. McKenna's book. In fact, I have liked everything that he has written. He bubbles like new wine.

He concocts situations that offer endless variety of theme and he rarely fails to score in one variety or another. Fancy a wedding arising from a father-in-law's discovery of his daughter-in-law in a man's bedroom, trying to find a way out of cheating at cards. Small wonder that the public library Is worried. If a woman will discuss card-sharping In a man's bedroom in the early morning, she might easily be turned to the discussion of something else In the early evening. Satan Is constantly seeking mischief for the idle, and bedrooms are his happy hunting grounds.

Doubtless this hint might send a lot of weak-minded persons off to purchase Mr. McKenna's book. I will say no more, for there Is reason to suppose that this reviewer Is no more strong-minded than he ought to be. Illegitimate children are a reproach to society. Thanks to certain national advertisers, they are no longer necessary, but Mr.

McKcnna, bcln? an Englishman, probably was not acquainted with the fact. Novelists are apt to overlook Important commonplace things like that. Even Israel Zangwill, more careful than the rest, overlooked the fact that It Is now possible to determine within an hour of the death of a murdered man and built up a whole novel on the assumption that it would be a perfect crime If you could get a man drugged after having him close his windows and lock his door and then burst In and slay him while his wife waited outside In the hall at luncheon and bridge at the Pros pect on Thursday.

Far different is one's estimate of "The Balloon Buster." While serving my country at the front and wishing devoutly for an end to the wsr, being something of a physical coward who had a great respect for the accuracy of the German field pieces, I saw German balloon busters bust some of our own sausage-balloons. The thing never thrilled me.

It was like shooting down a rabbit with a long-range rifle. The balloon never had a chance. Archie crumped for all he was worth and machine g'ins rattled all over the place, but the Germans always seemed able to slip away. They even came over at night and rode down the beam of a searchlight and spattered a little lead earthwards with no apparent damage to themselves. They enraged the ground forces, who, for all the boasting that every unit on the American front had some marksman who had shot down an airplane, were peculiarly helpless underneath those winged stingers.

doubt the A. E. F. air forces received an unfair reputation from the forces, who envied their comparatively comfortable quarters and their obvious Indifference to military discipline. But it was an lm-prsslon on the ground at the front that our aviators were always making whoopee In Paris or asleep on feather mattresses miles behind when the Germans came over.

I have heard that the Germans cherished the same Idea about their own flyers. Nevertheless, Norman S. Hall has made of Frank Luke an heroic fljure. Luke was accused, most Jealously and apparently fal.sely, ol claiming an air victory he didn't get. It soured him and he went forth to show his command.

He showed them. And lost his life In a dogfight He had guts and the killer Instinct, without which no soldier can hope to be of service to his country. He rolled up an appalling list of victories and died to win decorations. Although Mr. Hall leaves a good deal to be desired as a writer, the material has not suffere i In his hands Luke was a Bayard of the air, a gallant figure In a machine-made war.

His legend had the authority of reality. Hall has preserved it and re-lted the opportunity to make of Luke a shadowy tradition, as Impossible as Siegfried. Filled with prejudice against balloon-busters of all nations, Hall's book left me warmed up to Frank Luke. "Brook Evans" (4', Gibbs; Double using the soap and bllevlng in the ummonn lu.
