Fifty miles out from New York uty

mobile parties stop for the few bites
that always take many dollars before
running on into New York, but IL 1t
were not for the wireless station the
town would never BE- heard Of.
Near the ocean, dropped In q mos
quito infested field, the great Telefunk-
en- station sprawls over 100 acres. A
mile away 1t looks Ike huge spider
web, with all its slim poles reaching
into the air, interlaced with slender
wires.
The little low building is rigged on
every side with towering poles-an-
tennae, as they are called. Five hun
dred feet high they stand-almOst as
tall as the Washington monument.
From these wires radiate the electric
waves that leap to Germany. Great
blocks Of cement, big as corncribs, are
set In the ground, and to them are an

The message Is dashed ACROSS the

Their Distances.


While lecturing recently TO an audi

explained how astronomers measure the
distances of the sun, moon and stars.
The importance of squint was eX'
planned with the aid OF "A match and a
cigar Purting the cigar in his mouth
and Lighting the match. he told them II
was by squirting that he judged the
distance ut which TO hold it.
Then, taking another cigar. which
was about twelve inches in length. he
explained how in that case II was not
necessary To Squint 50 much, as the
point OF distance 10 be measured by the
eyes was further away.
This was done 10 illustrate the fact
that, just as the brain calculates the
distances of things seen by means of
the angle of the squint, so astronomers

when looking AT them.
Two Telescopes are placed apart at an
exactly measured distance. The astron
