THE JAINA GAZETTE the most practical means for ozone production is from the aciion of an electric brush discharge which occurs when a current is passing between two electrodes through an air gap and a solid dielectric. The brush discharge is characterized by its peculiar noise, its blueviolet colour, its gentle flow, the production of the so called electric wind, and above all by its remarkable property of converting oxygen into ozone.
The apparatus illustrated uses this method of producing this extremely active gas which is then bubbled through a column of the water to be treated. The same apparatus has been adapted to the purification and deodorization of air and for the purification of water in swimming pools. Manufacturers of bottled beverages are turning to this method of insuring the purity of the water they use.--" Forward."
Looking for the Ark A search of Mount Ararat by aeroplane in order to bring Noah's Ark to Chicago as an exhibit during the proposed 1933 World's Fair is suggested by Mr. William Strong, a former President of the Chicago Chapter of American Engineers, who offers to form a corporation to finance the expedition.
" If Noah's Ark was built it may be in existence to-day", said Mr. Strong. “It grounded on a mountain, where the rateness of the air would check decay."
The possibility of the Ark having resisted the action of the elements since it went aground is good according to Mr. Strong, who is a well-known flyer and a member of the Moody Bible Institute Alumni Association.
"If Noah's Ark could be brought to Chicago would it not prove a drawing card ?'' asked Mr. Strong.
“Wooden chariot wheels have recently been unearthed in Mesopotamia and they are estimated to be 5,000 years old. That being the case it is safe to say that only fire or earthquake, or an avalanche could have destroyed the Ark.
