EDISON LAUGHS AT
DURooUIER THEORY

The French electrician, M. Duro'
quier, has a theory that the explosion
which blew up the Volturno and that
which blew up the La Liberte while
she was lying in the French harbor'
was caused by the collision of two
wireless waves in the air. In his ex'
periments he has found that when
wireless waves cross one another,
they cause certain interference
With Hertzian waves he has exploded
little glass bulbs of gas, he asserts
Two wireless waves got into a fight
at exactly the place occupied by the
Volturno at the time of the disaster
Edison, when the theory was put
ND to him, replied: ut is possible
that wireless waves are the cause OF
ignition under rare conditions.
think the statement of Duroquier Is
fanciful." At the Marconi office the
construction engineers said he did moi
think there was any scientific basis
for the notion.

facilities are better than here" To
the ordinary person this incident
would seem most commonplace; in
fact, similar conditions, no doubt, ex-
list In many Southern small-tOwn COM
munities, but the cause for same
should not be allowed to exist, and the
remedy is to a large extent in the
hands of those people residing in and
around the towns.
II stands to reason that the town
whose merchants are prosperous will
afford a good market for the products
of its vicinity, and the town whose
buying and selling activities will nat
urally afford ample educationa: facili-
ties, thereby not only holding its old
residents, but offering strong induce
ments to contemplative newcomers.
The number of stores land the fl
nancial condition of same) in town
depends entirely on the amount OF
patronage accorded the local mer-
chants, and where all wants are sup
piled by these local mercantile estab-
llishments, the condition is governed
by the law of supply and demand.
Every dollar spent in your locai
stores benefits you as well as every
other individual residing in your
community, as a portion of that dollar
will find its way to some municipal
development. II should require no
argument to convince the most skepti-
cal persons that they are doing their
community serious injury every time
they make a purchase elsewhere.
If a resident of some distant city
should ask you for a donation to a
fund to be used for the development
of his city, you would, no doubt, re-
fuse to comply with his request, with
the explanation that you are interest
ed only in the upbuilding of your own
town and community and that he
should confine his solicitations to his
particular locality alone. You would
be absolutely right in so doing, and
your action in the matter would re-
ceive the Enforcement of every right
thinking person in your neighborhood.
In the very face of these facts, GER
tain per cent of small-town people &C.
! cede to identically the same request
above mentioned, but a little differ
emily put; in fact, they make dona-
lions of this kind every time they
make purchase away from home, and
when the articles wanted can be had
to as good advantage in their local
markets, there is absolutely no plausi-
BILE excuse for sending or going away
for them.
Every small-town merchant can,
and should, offer merchandise in his
particular line as good as can he OBJ
tanned elsewhere, and ris prices
should be the same.
There are many people living IT. cur
smaller cities and towns who prefer
to shop in the larger city stores Their
impressions seem to be that their 10
cal stores, being less pretentious, can.
not give them as good values, styles,
etc. If this class of buyers realized
the fact that standard or trademark.
ed-advertised lines of goods offer the
same style and quality, and sell for
the same prices in their local stores
as in the largest city stores, they
would patronize their home mer.
chants in every instance.
