Show The Sea In Miniature. A model of ocean currents is to be exhibited ex-hibited at the World's fair which will possess great practical value. This model, which is a huge scientific tank, is made to represent the surface of the earth spread out on an area of thirty feet square, the ocean and seas being shown by actual water. Small streams of water are ejected through pipes under the model so that the whole body of water moves exactly as the ocean currents move. The direction of the currents is shown by a white powder on the surface of the water. Near the model will be placed a large map giving the fullest details of the force, volume and direction direc-tion of the various ocean currents. New York Telegram. |
