INVENTS RADIUM SCREEN TO
GIVE LIGHT TO SIGHTLESS

Pittsburgh, May 23.-Ethan I. Dodds,
chemical engineer of the American
Vanadium Company, has invented a
radium screen which he believes will
enable the blind to see where the
retina of the eye has not been entirely
destroyed.
He has applied for patents, but says
this is only a precautionary step in the
public's interest and that he will give
the world the benefit of his discovery
He demonstrated his theory in the
William Penn Hotel, blindfolding a

..I should think that you and Mrs
Stevens could think of some way to
help her get work. Isn't there some
thing original that you could try! me
woman sews well enough, doesn I
she?"
Eyes. very we'll. The trouble Is
that she hasn't enough, initiative to go
ahead and try new things.
why don't you help fix her place
up? You might ada some gimcracks
of some kind, and give her a French
name"
Helen threw down her embroidery
and looked at Warren for moment
Then she sprang up and threw her
arms about his neck.
A Clever Idea
Warren Curtis, you're dear. OF
course we can do that It's a won
derful idea I don't see how you
happened to think of it. or course,
we'u do that. Well give her real
nom de plume and just make her
branch out. Mrs. Stevens and | can
spread 1t around that we have made
discovery, and we can set her to copy
ing some imported models. All that
she needs is a little assurance
"Yes, buy some copies of the latest
fashion magazines; they certainly
feature wild enough models for any
one"
"Of course, and we can take her
TO real place and let the atmos-
phere sink in, before we tell her that
she is to become fashionable dress
maker. Why, perhaps we can make
the woman. Imagine, Warren, sup
pose we can help her to be almost
happy and contented. Why, ii will
mean just ever so much. I'd do
anything to help"
But remember" said Warren,
warningly. don't aim too high; you
don't want to be disappointed"
"Well be careful. But l simply
must tell Mrs. Stevens. dear. 1 can't
wait another minute"
"I suppose you'd like to begin to-
night. wouldn't you?"
Almost. Shall I ask the Stevenses
to come over for a game of cards?
mo, not tonight. I'm going to
bed early. Now don't talk for half an
hour. The telephone bill was too
large last month, and l don't want
another that size"

Chairman
CONTINENTAL
ARMY SUBSTITUTE

Washington, b. g, Jan. Plans
to strengthen the National Guard I'M
stead Of establishing a continental
army as contemplated BIZ the war de-
partment were proposed to President
Wilson today BY Chairman Hay, Of the
house military committee. MI Hay
would not reveal how his suggestion
was received BY the president.
Under Mr. Hays plan, the National
Guard would get regular pay and a
provision would be included iii the
army bill for taking 1t into the regu-
lar army in time OF war. HE said that
at first this plan would bring only
about 10000 men into me regular
army, but that he felt sure that with
in two years there would be 100000.
The plan also proposes 70 increase
the present regular regiments OF in
fantry to war strength instead OF add
ing ten new regiments as planned BY
the war department, Mr.. Hay thinks
that would give the same increase IN
the regular army without adding to
overhead charges.
A tentative army bin, drawn up BY
Mr.. Hay after conferences with war
department officials, now includes the
continental army feature
President Wilson has endorsed the
entire war department plan, including
the continental ARMY. Today's de-
yeIonment was the first indication Of

Mr.. Hays views were taken up at to-
