KENNEDY GETS THE FAVOR

Service for substatiOn.

Congressman John L. Kennedy has re-
ceived word from Third Assistant POST
master General z. c. Madden that the
internationa branch OF the money order
service will be placed in operation No
vember ], at station 1, South Omaha. This
Is in response TO a request from Mr.. Ken
nedy, calling attention to the fact that
many Of the people OF the neighborhood
are Bohemians, who buy a great many
foreign orders and who frequently are un-
able 10 transact their business I'm the Eng
fish language. Mr.. Kennedy estimates
that foreign money order business among
the Bohemians at this station will amount
TO 81 600 monthly.
This is a matter greatly appreciated by
these people. Station ] was established
through the influence Of Congressman Ken
nedy and the concession OF the internal
tional service is a great benefit. This is a
matter TO which Mr., Kennedy gave much
attention. exciting his best endeavors, be-
cause he was convinced IL would be a good
thing for his constituents, who were so
anxious for It.

say of some OF the club programs and out

In looking over the outlines of study of
a great many clubs, the committee has
been obliged to confess that, while sin

many show lack of sequence, and many
more seem to us to be too miscellaneous
to effect the best results.
Having received many Inquiries for study
outlines, also for information on topics
which often seem without much value. ex-
cept for the discipline of research. the
committee has thought It advisable to pre-
sent some subjects which we hope may
be helpful to those clubs which are not
already provided
We have prepared four programs which
will be distributed. the subjects being THE
Development of the Modern Novel" Study
Of United States History The Modern
Drama" and THE Women OF the Re-
Nuisance and of the Salon." the last
subject being chosen with especial ref
erence to younger women's clubs-a need

TWENTIETH CENTURY MARvELs
Prof. Patty Lectures on Radium,
Wireless TeIegrsphy and
LIQUID Air.

An interesting lecture, accompanied with
equally interesting demonstrations was
given Thursday evening at Creighton uni
versity auditorium by Prof. w. B. Patty,
on the subjects of Wireless Telegraphy,
Rad'Im and Liquid Air" The lecture was
given before a large audience under the
auspices Of the Creighton University Ath-
letic association.
Prof. Patty adds to his qualities as a sci
enlist that OF an orator and the faculty Of
divesting his talk of verbose scientific
technicality and at once puts himself on
the best terms with his audience. Hts
first experiments were with wireless teleg-
raphy which he illustrated with a COM
plete set OF sending and receiving appa-
ratus. He showed that the principle lay
wholly in the transmission of ether waves
to and from instruments similarly attuned.
He believed that the time would come
when wires would be relegated to the scrap
heap and that the wireless system would
be the only means of the transmission OF
electrical energy for communication. light
and power.
Prof. Patty had with him six tubes If
radium. The lecture room being dark
ened for the purpose, he gave several
highly interesting experiments with it, par
ticularly as regards its peculiar qualities
in disseminating light rays as well as
recuperating itself without any apparent
loss of energy. He believed that the capa-
bilities of radium were illimitable as an
energy, both as curative Of cancer. tu-
berculosis and other diseases, but its pres
ent applicability as a curative agent was
in it's infancy, as It would be likely to de-
stroy the life OF the victim before it would
get in its work on the bacteria 1t was
intended 20 destroy.
His liquid air experiments were numerous
and replete with interest, and were similar
to those demonstrated in all liquid air ex-

more than ordinary interest, for the story
of the struggle of the young violinist for
recognition is in some degree akin to that
of Whiteside himself. And, to his credit,
like Helmar, he has refused to advertise
his eccentricities to secure attention to his
art He may not be able to command sue
cess, but he deserves IT,
The story told in THE Magic Melody"
is a good one, and aside from certain pal
pabe crudties, IL works out well for the
uses to which 1t is put. Its heart interest
is strong. and its human side is genuine
In the role of the young musician, fighting
his way in the world, Mr.. Whiteside adds a
certain comedy element to the situations

his sardonic comment on some ways Of the

ton. is the guest OF the convention. Mrs
Ella w. Peattie. formerly president Of
the Omaha Womans club, made the prin-
cipal address Of the literature session
Wednesday. her subject being The Sunday
School Library" She said:
No child who is to become a person of
taste and lover OF truth should be al
lowed to roam unguarded through the
maudlin monstrosities Of the poorer sort
of Sunday school libraries. The poverty
stricken style OF the greater part Of the
books to be found IN the Sunday school IL
brartes, the fictitious awards bestowed upon
virtue, and, above all, the misrepresenta-
lions Of life are distinctly injurious.
Every one of us must be aware of the
cruelty OF keeping children upon peptonized
milk exclusively after their teeth are cut
and when their bodies are growing We
petulant children quite unit to hold their
PAGES IN the vigorous world. But we COM
NIT an equally great offense II we feed
the intellect of our developing young peo-
PIE upon what may be termed 'peptonized
literature.
II IS absurd. too. TO try TO keep the
knowledge of sin and sorrow from them.
They must know the true story of the
OF victory Let them have the laughter
and the tears, the cries of victory and
defeat. and let them become aware Of
the splendor of literature and the struggle
from the first and they love y the dragon Nn
slayer, but what is the poetry of their
early youth must become the noble realism
of their fuller understanding.
