Text Appearing Before Image:
e end ofa strip nailed to the top of the ladder, and projecting from itabout 10 inches, was horizontally suspended by a thin stringan ordinary kitchen funnel—its wide opening facing the group—and in such a way that the end of the stem of the funnel justrested against the front of the bulb. All that was now neces-sary to make the exposure was to impart a sudden motionto the funnel of ample force to compress the bulb. This was done by the rifle bullet. To insure sufficient re-sistance the stem of the funnel was solidly plugged with apiece of wood to the near end of which a penny was glued.At a signal the gun was fired by Jack Johnstone, the son ofthe hostess, and with so true an aim that the bullet struckthe penny without touching the sides of the funnel. Thescheme worked perfectly, but to me the strangest part of theexperiment was that the bullet after doing the work it wasmeant to do, had just enough force left to enter the bulb, butnot enough to go through. It is still there. 254
