Captain Billiard said:
All that is necessary to complete
the operation is to throw a switch in

instead of stopping at the base of the

1t Grew From Wires.
1.-The recent completion of the trans
continental land telephone line gave
the telephone engineers the idea. 1t
is chiefly question of electric current
to create the electric waves to trans
port the sound. 1t was found that the
electric current in a wire became toe
weak to perform its functions after a
certain distance. Four booster sta
tions were established between New
York and San Francisco to strengthen
the current when it began to grow too
weak to carry the vibrations on the
d;aphragms in the telephones. The
result was that the current never grew
inadequate to create the necessary
waves. The engineers, I think figured
that they could save wire expense and
other charges by having these boost
err stations supply the current to wire
less station and that happy thought
solved the problem"

RAILROADS UNDERPAID
They Should Receive IL Million More
for Carrying United States Mails.

New York, Oct 25.-An estimate
that the railroads are underpaid to the
extent of 100000 for carrying the
United States mail was contained in a
report made public today by the spe-
cial committee of the Merchants asso-
citation, which conducted an investiga-
ton of that subject.
The committee figured that the
railroads should receive in addition to
payments now made 100000 a year
for the use of their compartment mail
cars; $2,2OO.0O0 a year for side serv-
ice, which consists of transferring mail
to other railroads and between certain
stations and postoffices; and about
$500, 600 a year on weight allowances
because of the parcel post system put
into effect since the last official tests
of freights carried by the railroads.
The investigators suggested that
payment should be made for weight
with provision for annual instead of
quadrennial weighings; payment for
compartment car space upon the
basis now in effect and that railroads
be paid for their transfer service or re-
Heved of the requirement to give side
service.

TO PREVENT WAR
Nations Must Cut Down "Sup.
ply of Cannon Fodder"
DIR. Anna BlOunt Strong for
Control of Births.
To BRING UNIVERSAL PEACE
Women Must Assert Right to
Reject Motherhood.
Physicians VIII Tell Them
How, Eugenic Advocate Says.

Chicago, Oct 25.-wouId you pre-
vent future war? Then limit the size
of your family. Cut down the supply
of fodder for cannon"
Briefly stated this is the war pre-
ventive prescribed by DIR. Anna Blounl,
president of the Chicago Eugenic So
. ciety, in an address before the Chicago
Society of Anthropology Sunday in
COrinthian hall, Masonic Temple.
That war is principally caused by
pressure of population, forcing nations
over boundaries and into conquests for
more land to support it's hungry
hOrdes and to establish "a new place
in the sum-" DIR. Blount amply demon
strated by citations from history, past
and present.
And how will you limit the size of
families and thus eradicate the
scourge of wars?
Repeal Federal Laws.
Repeal the federal statutes prohib-
iting dissemination of methods of
birth control
Then prevent epileptics. the insane.
feebleminded and otherwise unfit from
reproducing their kind.
Action should be taken immediate
ly to bring about the desired result,
according to DR.. Blount.
And when the birth rate of nations
is under perfect control and races are
not restricted on breathing space, war
will be of historical interest only-one
o. the curious monstrosities of the
past
Under universal peace women Will
be absolutely free
Patriotism will be planetary, not
merely national. Politics will be of
the world Globe rule will supersede
that of country The world will be
ruled by one hand. Laws will be made
by one parliament and enforced by one
police department. Rivalries will be
interplanetary, not international
such is the ideal of a world society
whose families are limited in size.
But before such state can obtain.
women must assert their rights" said
DR.. Blount. They must be free from
the shackles of convention. They must
be able to say whether they shall be-
come mothers. They must know how
to control conception
IF a girl, loving too well, attempts
to hide her shame by killing her un,
born child, we call her a criminal, and
rightly" She continued: II do not be-
lieve in abortion as a method of BIRTH
control.
Moral restraint is one method
which | dare to mention and which
any one may mention 1t means prac-
ticaIIy celibacy OF the other methods,
I shall not speak, fearing $4,000 hne
and imprisonment. They are obtain
able from other sources. Certain OF
our fashionable and popular physi-
clans will gladly give explicit direc-
lions on payment of the requisite fee.
To Control Balance.
1.-The law of Nautilus, that popul-
ton increases at a much faster rate
than does the food supply of the world
has not been disproved. Until we
nicely balance population with means
os sustenance, wars are inevitable. And
until scientific methods of regulating
conception are common knowledge we
cannot control the balance.

THE BOHEMIAN GIRL

There is little wonder that there are
not more comic opera companies on
the road. Saturday matinee and night
the Boston English Opera company
headed by Joseph Sheehan presented
THE Bohemian Girr' before two rath-
er small audiences The reason for
the manifestation of such little inter
est is not hard to find. While the com
pany sang the opera well there was a
dramatic intensity that was lacking.
The absence of the punch in operas
is causing the lack of interest.
When the bohemian Girl was in
its prime as a favorite opera of the
American stage there were no motion
pictures. Now the movies have edu-
Gated the public to demand a dramatic
thrill. An opera is so made up that
the dramatic effect is sacrificed for
the music and singing. The new gem
Grafton of theatergoers demands the
thrill of intense scenes and when this
is missing the show goes flat This
may be one reason for the apparent
Indifferent reception that was accord
ed Sheehan'S company.
By the old timers, who like the style
of comic operas, the piece was well
received and there were many in the
two audiences at the Grand Saturday
who were well pleased with the sing
ing of the company, which was very
well done. Sheehan, although much
too robust to cast a glamour over the
character of 'HThaddeus," the lover of
the Bohemian Girl, sang his part we'll
his Irish tenor voice being of pleasing
line" the daughter of Count Arm
HEINZ was particularly likable in her
part.
