HOW ELECTRIC WAVES TRAVEL.
The Electric Wave. Motion in Wire less Telegraph and Telephony
 Little Understood
Electric News Service. )t


 At this time when wireless waves are carrying the news of history making battles across oceans and continents, encircling the globe, it is important that we secure better understa nding of this electrical pre- nomena.
 The waves of the sea. sound waves 1such as Inusic9, heat-waves, light-waves in colors or in paintings, all are wave motions, some complex and some simple, but all governed. by almost Identical laws. The most obvi- ous and well known wave motions are those of liquids. Such waves can be readily produced by throwing stone into a still pond. If the wind is blow ing,@ causing a succession of small waves, the circular waves caused by the stone will continue on until they idle out from lack of force; regardless of the wind. If two stones are thrown into the water the waves will readily cross each other and contanue on to their destina ton.
 Waves of the sea depend on a differ ent principle, and one of great inn portance in electricity as we'll. This principle may be stated shortly as fol- lows: When the current of fluid flows past a body which can oscillate, it will set the body in oscillation, and main tain it's vibration. Illustrations of this principle can be found, such as the

German engineers, it is said. took soundings over every square mile of the country around Vimy, -Givenchy and Carency. Some of them settled at Lans with their families and for years the work. went on. Then. ac- cording to the. story, the Germans declared that the exploitation of the vein could not be made to pay and retired French engineers who made similar investigations, however, found that the vein could be worked prof1tably,;, a company I was formed and shafts were being sunk when the war interrupted the work.
 In the meantime, 1t is said that every rise and every depression of ground, every quarry, ridge and gorge had been plotted on the Ger
 man staff maps in the triangle of the Mont de Virny. Mont de Givenchy and spur of Notre Dame de Lorette. where the Germans. have now es- abolished their strongest fortif1ca- tions to protect the plain leading eastward toward Lens and north ward toward Lille. The desire of the Allies5t to command that fiat country is what gives the greatest import ancer to the battle of sArras Or the battle of Artois. as it may eventually be called.

blowing of an organ pipe, the musical vibration produced electrically in, the DuddelI arc, and. the. whistling of g. stretched cord in the wind ItSwas by pAoperties of wave motion to the known facts concerning electricity that Clerk Maxwell was able to prophecy the production of electric waves, and to show that they would be identical with those of light. It re- mained for Hertz, however, to realize these facts in practice.
 Speaking generally, an electric wave is the forward motion of a condition of electric strain, which may. be ac- eompanied by to-and-fro motion of electricity along any conductors over which it passes. Electric waves, such ae are used in wireless telegrap phy, travel with the same speed as light, s186, ,000 miles a second. It is presumed that they travel much the same as waves in a small pondSwhen a stone is thrown into the water. That is, they begin at a small sc,lrce and flow out in succession of circular waves until their force is spent. But wireless travels in spherical waves, instead of on a single level plane such as water Electrical waves travel in direct pro- portion to their initial energy. That is the waves from a small wireless sta- ton will not travel so far as the waves from a larger station. Ordinary anna teur stations have working radius of only a few hundred miles The gov ernulent naval wireless stations can send and receive messages for, thou sands of miles.
 Electrical waves differ from sound waves in that they create no actual disturbance of the air. Sound causes wave motion in the air itself. Light waves and e1ectrical waves pass through the air without disturbing it in any. way. Of course, electric waves cannot be seen, but neither can sound waves. It is not the wave itself that is heardSin wireless telegraphy but the action, of the receiver which is inhu- enced by the electric waves brought to it by the aerial which, in turn, collects them from the air as they pass.

ARRAS REGION IS
 TOUCHED BY THE
 SHELLS OF FRENCH

Amiens, July 22=t@There is not a lump of earth the size of a shovel between Ecurie and Notre Dame de 'Lorett that hasn't been pIoughed by shells,'' said an artillery officer who took part in the recent French of fensive north of Arras. 'sThe in tense fire of our batteries is not, as is supposed by the uniDitiated who read of artillery due1s in the conn muniques, aimed at the eneny's bat teries; in the region Of the Artois the Germans chose their ground so well that it can not be hoped. except in rare instances, to reach their heavy guns until the lines are pushed back
 The real object of attack is the eneray's infantry and the field works duels but they are between the lighter field pieces; the heavy guns are well concealed in the numerous quarries, gorges and ravines of the region.
 Toward the northern limit of the recent battle field the ruins of mining properties. of Angres; I4ievins and Lens add to the natural shelters. German ortil1eryrnen knew this region quite as well as the French officers. They appreciated the strength of the Ar tois hills so well that they sent en- gineers, the French officers say, to study it between. 1906 and. 1910, with the ostensfb1e object of Investigating g whether it would be possible to ex- p1oit further to the southwest the coal vein Of the basin of Lens.

THE TRUST PRESS.-I wish to
add my opinions as to what is the
greatest fake in Chicago and this is
our daily newspapers excepting The
Day Book.
We, the readers of The Day Book,
had ought to join in appreciation to
the editor for exercising his liberal
ism, fairmindedness and honesty by
dealing with social problems. The
Day Book tells the truth and express
es the opinion of the people.
A special appreciation for the Pub
lie Forum. In what other daily news
papers in Chicago would we be given
a chance to communicate our radical
views as we have in The Day Book.
Our newspapers are organized
against their readers and the whole
community.
The newspapers ought to be insti-
tGtions of education, teaching the
truth, intelligence, sociability and di-
plomacy. Instead they are an organ
lied fake, hypocrits, false advisers,
provocators of hatred and agitators
for patriotism and war. rs
They claim to be friend of the
people and advisers to our great re-
public. If this is true, why do they
advocate war so much? Is war good
for us or not? Will we gain anything
by fighting Germany or will we lose?
They know well enough that we have
nothing to fight for.
We have been agitating for ma
tional defense and lately, especially
after Lusitania disaster, they keep
on irritating feelings of hatred to-
wards the Germans. Their headlines
read for instance, THE Cabinet Will
Decide Today" War or Peace De-

Wilson never thinks of having war,
