Wireless Telephony.

Wireless telephony comes home to
a good many people. The telephone
has become so tremendously popu-
lar since its development by Dr.. Bell
some thirty years or so ago that
every advance, whether theoretical
or practical, has distinct interest.
Roughly, about one person in
twenty in the city districts is a
telephone subscriber. Are they to
be benefited by the wireless tele-
phone? 1t doesn't seem likely.
More plausible is the conclusion
that telephony without wires will
serve particular emergencies rather
than the general intercommunica-
ton to which the Bell system has
accustomed US.
It is the remarkably widespread
and serviceable intercommunieatio
furnished by the several great tele-
phone companies that has made the
telephone so popular in this coun-
try. But it has required no less
skill to bring about this uniform
service than it did TO invent the
telephone itself.
This leads to the point from
-~aAnh the weakness of all these
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1907-11-15

notwithstanding novelties, such as
the wireless telephone, becomes APP
parent. The beauty of telephone
service lies In the system, not in
any particular apparatus. 1t may,
indeed, be possible some day to
carry on spasmodic communication
by wireless telephone between Wash
ington and Chicago. but the world
that the telephone serves is critical
and arbitrary, and accustomed to
the detailed and often valuable in
formation which is furnished by
the central exchanges.
The telephone service furnished
today either at long distance or To-
cally is by no means ideal. But the
telephone is still young; it has
faults that are being overcome little
by little; every year brings some
improvement. The wireless tele-
phone viii have its special uses, no
doubt, but it can hardly ever sup
plant its more ordinary and tangi-
BILE prototype.

Going to the Suburbs.

Another aspect OF country life in Mas

IS no empty dream that New YORK anu

sight when there will be no real coun-
try life In Massachusetts, and no coun-
try problems as distinguished from
city problems. The macadam road, the
trolley car, the automobile with gdsOlene

tween city and country.
Thus the Boston Globe.
A good many problems viii be
solved by the coming Of such a con-
dition.
There viii be fewer farm women

There viii be fewer boys and girls

There viii be fewer city milk

There viii be less theater-going

Dense Black and Gray Smoke. ="

indianapolis and Chicago are hav-
ing trouble with the same dense
black and gray smoke" which has
been known to disturb Washington
now and then
In the great city by the lake the
law was aimed at the evil, not the
smoke. Light gray smoke was per
United at certain hours; dense
black smoke was forbidden at al
hours. But the new mayor was not
satisfied. He decided that the ordi-
nance interfered with business. So
It has not lately been enforced.
The result Is precisely what was to
be expected-the old order has come
back, and the improvement is a
understanding. clear-eyed memory.
In indianapolis they are debating
whether to try Or 10 stand still But
they have come to realize from the
experience Of their neighbors in
Chicago that the enactment of law
is not enough. The real question is:
Shall the law be enforced?
Washington offers evidence not
only that the evil can be corrected
but that smoke can be practically
abolished from city air. 1t does
not undertake to prove the wisdom
Of such an extreme, however. Its
experience is cited only to show
that honest officials with a rigorous
law can accomplish the abatement
even of smoke. Lately its inspec-
tors have been able to do this with
out resorting to the questionable
practice of smoke and automobile
inspectors everywhere else-proviRg
their case on their own say-so
They have taken 20 photographing
the smoke, and at sight Of the mega
tive even the most doughty defen-
dant has been known to wilt.
Let Chicago and Indianapolis take
heart, therefore. But let them not
follow quite so far. For a little
smoke is a mighty good thing for a
city that would provide its boys
with employment and keep the
profit of manufacturing its supplies
largely in home tills.

HOSPITAL TOOK
300 DRINKS"

AS indicating the extent Of alcoholism
in the District of Columbia, it is stated
by George s. Wilson. secretary Of the
Board Of Charities, that last year the
several emergency hospitals and the
Washington Asylum Hospital treated
more than 500 such cases. This state
ment Is contained in a report to Com
missioner West
Mr.. Wilson states that there are no
persons confined in st. Elizabetn's sim
ply as inebriates, but are held there only
when insane.
In numerous cases." ne saws. "aIco-
hOlsm Is q cause of insanity, but. as I
understand the matter, persons who are
insane as a result of alcoholism are
proper subjects for a hospital for the in
sane, and not for an inebriate asylum. %
Referring to the number of cases of
alcoholism in the District, MI. Wilson
says;
There IS no way of determining WITH
out an exhaustive examination how
many Of these cases are chronic, and il
is not known known how many different
persons were represented in these 500
cases. Doubtless there were very many
Tepeaters, because il is a well-known
fact that the same person is likely to
turn up in the alcoholic ward again
and again so that the 500 persons do
not represent anything like that num-
bGr of separate persons. The board has
never been able 10 make an inveStiga-
ton sufficiently exhaustive to deter
mine with any degree Of accuracy the
number of persons in the District of
Columbia who might be cldssed as

The man behind a newspaper
Is the man who gets the news,
Who reads the plot Of human hearts
And tragedy reviews.
Who breasts the storm on winter nights
And rushes through the rain
To tell the sum of happiness,
OF sorrow and OF pain.
No laurel ever crowns his brow,
The world declines TO praise,
He moves unnaticed and unknown
In crowded human ways.
No soldier in the ranks more brave,
No patriot more true,
A rare devotion is revealed
In all he tries TO do.
And while no bugle blare may lift
His merit to the skies,
The world has lost a hero when
A good reporter dies.
