M, Johnson and his aesociates have been studying the movements and postures of normal sleeping individuals by a special motion picture camera which photographs the sleeper every time that he stirs. In a recent report to the American Medical Association, Dr. Johnson, Dr. T. H. Swan and M. G. E. Weigan describe one normal in- dividual thus faunc'. to twist and turn every few minutes all night long, as- suming one after the other no less than 33 widely different postures. Thousands of other tests, the investi- gators report, have shown this almost continual twisting and turning during sleep to be the rule rather than the exception. Only persons who have been heavily drugged lie perfectly quiet when soundly asleep. What- is still more remarkable, the majority of the postures assumed in bed by a nor- mal sleeper are shown by the tell-tale camera to be contorted postules, with the body bent or contracted and the spinal column bowed and twisted, as different as possible from the usual medical advice to lie straight and re- lax perfectly. Apparently, the Pitts- burgh investigators report, "the most restful night's sleep is characterized by the use of a considerable variety of bodily positions, all of which are con- torted; none of which indicate any - think like 'complete relaxation' of all parts of the skeletal muscular system, such as one may observe in a fainting person; but each of which appears to be well adapted to the relief of irrita- tion that was set up in the posture last taken, as well as in the day's activities."

Mr. Goldthwaite's plan was to produce synthetical musical sounds which have never been heard before. • The instrument operates by a glass disk, on which are recorded, photo - „graphically, a minter of concentric sound tracks.
