GTON.-Grave, gray-beard-
w ed members Of the United States
senate committee on commerce list
ened recently with respectful atten-
ton to the arguments of a 13-year-old
boy in knickerbockers whose head
barely topped the table which sepa-
rated him and his dignified auditors.
The youthful orator was William E.
D. Stokes, Jr., of New York, and his
theme was wireless telegraphy and
telephony. He is president of the
Junior Wireless Club of America, Ltd,
and he is opposed to certain features
of the Depew bill, which provides for
government regulation of wireless tel
egraphy.
Master Stokes said the members of
his organization were amateur wire
less telegraphers, all of tender years.
He told the committee that the boys
favored nominal license fee for
wireless operators, the license to be
revocable for malpractice"
The boy lobbyists voice was youth
full, but his words were those of q
grown man and scientist and his
hearers smiled broadly at hearing him
roll f1uently from his tongue the
polysyllabic technical terms of his
craft. However, they paid respectful
attention to his arguments and ap-

NEW YORK.-That auto-suggestion
~ should play an important part in
the laying Of eggs is a new phase of
hen psychology for poultry raisers to
ponder on. Charles N. Wheelwright
OF Morris Park, L. l., has hen named

larger than pigeon eggs.
This egg is no bigger than a fair
sized hickory nut It would take 30
or 40 such eggs to make a nourishing
omelet.
However, the mere existence of this
egg is not half SO interesting as Mr..
Wheelwright's theory of auto-sugges-
ton, by which he accounts for the
gradual declension in the size of
Spotty's eggs.
Spotty, for almost a year, has been
moored in coop in Mr.. Wheelwright's
hennery, which adjoins the pigeon
house. Looking out of the coop win
dow Spotty is able to see the homing
and carrier pigeons disporting them
selves. She can also see the eggs laid
by the pigeons and the squads that
hatch therefrom.
Seeing these eggs laid by the pig

had a gradual effect upon Spotty's
mind. Her subconscious processes
have worked it out for her that if a

Then, in the order of events, he paid
