ATLANTIC CITY, May 3—The
thousands' of hotel men here this!
week for the sessions of the Sixth
National Spring Hotel Exposition
are agog over the announcement by
the [therman Hotels Company of
Chicago that the rooms of its new
Aiijbussauor-East structure will be
th. first in any American hotel to
be hooded with the ultra-Violet rays
of ua .iral sunshine.
At first, delegates were bewildered
. by the Chicago statement. Each
hotel m,: n believed that patrons of
» his hotel had ample access to sun
shine through provision of many
v "dov •. and sumptuous solaria.
x But the t ight of the mid-west hos
t:Ly to claim itself the first hotel
in the United States to take advan
tage of the sun’s ultra-violet rays
was granted when it was learned
that ordinary window glass does
not transmit this essential part of
i sunshine.,
This scientific fact was met with
many a long face and remarks were
heard to the effect that "our sun
How sun's health rays reach food i:i hotel's z-iiitrics.
porches are a myth, after all” and
‘‘all we have been getting is
skimmed sunshine.”
Ernest C. Byfield of The Sherman
Company announced that his pa
trons will enjoy an outdoor feeling
indoors; that they may acquire an
“all-over” tan for their children or
for themselves while sitting behind
glass; that food in their pantries
will be enriched and that their liv
ing and sleeping rooms will be more
than usually protected against bac
teria by the admission of the ultra- j
violet rays of sunshine through
vitaglass.
Upon learning of the perfection
of vitaglass by Prof. F. E. Lam
plough of Cambridge University,
England, Mr. Byfield»investigated its
ability to transmit solar ultra-violet
rays. The experience of English
hotels, hospitals, schools and office
buildings such as Lloyd’s and the
Midlands Bank buildings wras so
convincing that he immediately ar
ranged for installation of the new
window glass in the Ambiesador
East in all of its sitting-rooms,
sleeping rooms and pantries.
He reports that many patrons
hav;e beer, attracted to the hotel be
cause of the ease with which the
preventive and curative powers of
the sun’s ultra-violet rays will be
available, particularly for growing
children and for elderly people who
need an enriched b1 od content and
heightened resistance.
The theory of Pro:. Steenbock of
Wisconsin University that foods ex
posed to the undiluted rays of sun
shine acquire additional nutritive
qualities is responsible for the use
of vitaglass in the hotel’s pantries.
Several local hotels are pondering
the advisability of as "un
skimmed” sunlight to tin bm
modations, the number sge,
glass-enclosed solaria aiong the
boardwalk offering unusual oppor
tunity for cornering ultra-violet
baths, particularly for winter pa
trons.
CILIM NEW ALASK1
ANIMAL OF INTERIOR
There is now quite a family of
yaks on the Alaska College campus,
Professor Marchand said during his
J brief visit in Seward fast week. And
galloping about with this herd are
other animals called the galloyaks,
which to the unintiated is a cross be
tween the galloway cow and the yak.
In appearance the galloyak has
long shaggy hair and has not quite
as large a hump as the yak. The ex
periments being conducted thus far
in crossing these animals have prov
en very successful, and it is confi
dently believed a hardv animal will
j
be produced, which will thrive in
these northern climes. -
The original yaks which a;re now
in the college corral came from a
Canadian herd which in turn came
from the Himalaya Mountain region.
This herd always attracts much at
tention from visitors
