Sharp Boundaries: Rule for Tempering Pianos and Organs.— Tune middle C to desired pitch, then tune F— fifth below—sharp of C, until between C and F, there result three beats in five seconds. Next tune A-sharp — fourth above F-sharp of the latter, until there results one beat, each second. Next tune G—fourth below middle C — flat of C, by one beat a second; then tune D — fifth above — flat to G, by three beats in five seconds; A — fourth below — flat to D; E — fifth above — flat to A; B — fourth below — flat to E; F-sharp — fourth below — flat to B; C-sharp — fifth above — flat to F-sharp; G-sharp — fourth below — flat to C-sharp ; D-sharp— fifth above — flat to G-sharp, which will make D-sharp as sharp of A-sharp, as the latter is sharp of the first F tuned.
WITH GARDENS a sense of enclosure is important. On small lots the boundaries may be those of the property or even plantings or other pleasant features on a neighbor's property, for when I speak of boundaries I mean not those of the lot but those that limit the view. On larger grounds the boundaries to views may be well within the property lines.
The scientific staff of the university consists of approximately 300 established scholars working in the biological and medical sciences, related fields of the physical sciences, the behavioral sciences, and mathematics. Research laboratories in the various fields are under the direction of senior members of the staff with whom younger members are associated. Sharp boundaries are not drawn between departments, and interdisciplinary studies are well developed. In both teaching and research, the regular staff of the university is supplemented by distinguished visitors. |
