R. L. McCarty, North Gate watch repairman, has since last November owned such a machine which, by amplifying and analyz­ing the ticks, determines the psy­chological and physiological needs of a watch. The rate of ticking for r. twgnty-four hour period can he determined in thirty seconds by this ingenious machine.

In 2V6 minutes the watch can he gi\en a complete battery of tests including I. Q., personality, and mechanical efficiency or de­ficiency as the case may be. The results are recorded on a graph in a code coherent only to the opera­tors of the machine.

Ads for the machine show a wild assortment of dote on a graph which mean, “My hair spring needs adjusting badly," and I have a headache, while a regular wavy line is translated into, “Feeling fine and running right on the dot."

About thirty-five pounds in weight, the machine looks some­thing like a radio receiver and works on an electronic principle. McCarty’s Western Electric Unit can be used to check watches in five different positions of up, side­ways, down and swinging to and fro. A watch runs 20 to 60 seconds slower when being worn than when
