BRACE OF VISIONS

Brunette Dream Can Dance
and Blonde Answers
to Elizabeth"

To separate the workers Of the Dis
trict building from 81 In the space Of
half an hour is a feat worthy of the
highest admiration. When added to this
the sum OF 3 50 is extracted from the
pockets of the occupants of the press
room without the aid OF anesthetlcs or
blackjack the feat becomes one
worthy TO be recorded in the annals of
wonderful achievements.
Into the building there drifted two
visions, dream in black, and an equal
ly bewitching picture in brown-blonde
and brunette. Their entrance int othe
press room was a signal for a display
of gallantry. The Vi-Rinian who ac-
knowledges lJonesvile ss Home Sweet

being interrupted in the midst of a dis
course 10 which no one was paying the
slightest attention, Strengthened him
self and furtively smoothed his scanty
locks. The dean Of the press room
gave the visitors an approving smile
and the "Old-timers' arose from a re-
Ginning position on the lounge and Sig
nlfed that the visit was not unwel-
come. The blonde explained the OBJ
ject of the call. They were soliciting
subscriptions for a magazine, land just
because I like the way you part your
hair. old boy. Wen give It TO you for
three years for one dollar"
ProtestatIons that it was the day be-
fore pay day were OF no avail The
Virginian succumbed when the blonde
gave him a languishinG glance and con-
ided that her name was Elizabeth.
Abner fell for a dollar upon being IN
formed by the brunette that she could
dance. The dean and the oId-timer
contributed a quarter each, though in
order to be Fl on the deal the latter
was forced to make touch.
Having aided in the worthy cause the
reporters suggested TO The visions the
names OF a few shining marks. There
upon they departed and soon returned
in their wake Ralph Pratt. secretary TO
Commissioner West. Mr.. Pratt was
smiling notwithstanding he had been
separated but a moment before from a
dollar 10 which he later added a quar-
ter for good measure. Not only did Mr.
Pratt contribute his quota with near
cheerfUlness, but volunteered to pre-
sent the visions to others who might
be induced TO subscribe

TINE BY WIRELESS
TO AID HAHGATORS

PARIS. April 1S--A new use for wire
les telesraphy has been suggested by
Prof Bouquet de IA Brye at the Acad-
envy Of Science He proposed that tbe
wireless system should be utilized for
enabling vessels at sea 70 find their
longitude.
The Einel Tower in Paris can az
present send radio-telegrams 10 points
within a radius OF 100 miles. which
comprises the Mediterranean and nor
ton Of the Atlantic. Il A standard time
were signaIed from the tower all vessels
fitted with Aiarconi apparatus within
the radius could fix their longitude By
comparing Paris time with -heir own
Chronomete-s. and thus avoid the cou-
Dlicated calculations which are neu-
necessary.
The professor also suggested that If q
NarcOni station were established on the
Peak Of Tenerife. in the Canary isl
ands. which is about 1000 feet high. AL

the wireless time signals and navigation

Chicago Camera Club Exhibit
Proves Disappointing Collectic

In the assembly room Of the Capital
Camera Club there IS now on exhibi-
ton a collection Of forty phOtOgrs phs,
the contribution OF the Chicago Camera
Club 10 the print interchange OF photo
graphic societies
Following so closely the collection Of
the Photo PictOrialists Of Buffalo, the
work as a whole is rather disaqpoint-
ing. As in the Buffalo collection there
Is evidence Of the leadership, and the
trend in a single direction Of the whole
society Buffalo photographers ere
strongly artistic and their work Is 81 &
). tive Of temperament both in EXPIRE
so and selection Chicago seems 20
% Nv a belief that the enlargement OF
- commonplace or mediocre theme,
gives 70 such a subject artistic qualities
The mistake is apparent in this cOuec-
ton. Chicago is probably city with
greater abundance OF pictorial pos
sibilities than any other large city in
the country This has been proven by
some Of the collections Of lantern slides
exhibited by this society
IN portraitUre they show better eI-
amples than those submitted IN this
class BY many similar organizations
In this branch Of photography. they
are. however, far behind the standards
OF :he local society. which probably
leads in portraiture any OF the societies
connected with the Interchange.
