tain a delightful touch of humor de-
spite the narrowing events of those
fateful days, yet his journal teens
with the tragic significance of those
events. Burton J. Hendrick, in an ar
ticle entitled, "Airplanes to Win the
War;" describes "our opportunity to
help our allies to quick victory"
Every month without control of the
air means at least 100000 casualties.
Five months will kill off as many men
as we are now preparing to train for
our new army. Delay in building a
vast air fleet big enough to blind the
German army is akin to murder"
Vernon Kellogg, of the commission for
relief in Belgium, tells of the Difficult
ties encountered in getting England
and Germany to make the agreements
and concessions which rendered pos
sible the relief of the starving civil
ians.

Cleveland, O., Aug. Am organ re-
cital few years from now will be
actually a recital of words besides
music And the organ will do 1t all.
For the last ten years. Prof Day,
ton G. Miller of the Case School of
Applied Science here, has been at
work inventing an organ which will
actually sing words. He has already
formed combinations of pipes to speak
the vowels and to say mama" and
papa" s45 +.-.
II have only to perfect the instru-
ment to say some simple sentence
says DR.. Miller. Then the problem
of having an orchestra and chorus in
one-will be solved -. ~
DR.. Miller has invented one compli-
Gated machine, he calls the phonedeik.
To make the organ speak, DR.. Mil
Ter says he had to analyze the simp-
lest sound first, into its component
parts. And to do this he had to see
the sounds. Hearing them wouldn't
do. a..
So he invented the phonedeik which

shows you in black and white, the
sound you speak into it. The writing
is in cross strokes of various shapes,
each sound having different stroke,
which Dr. Miller calls curve"
DR.. Miller photographs these strokes
runs them through machine that
analyses them into their simplest
parts, puts them on another compli-
Gated instrument that checks up the
analysis, builds his organ pipes to
correspond with the mathematical cal
culations and produces sound from
the organ like that spoken into the
phonedeik. .-... -.
I'm my study of sound" adds DIR.
Miller, 81 find there are certain fun
damental sounds, as ah, oh, 90, and
others, around which consonants are
placed to form our words. 1t would
be easier to learn to speak if words
were spelled as they are sounded.
1T is possible to develop this idea
into production Of universal scien-
tific language, based on a certain
number of fundamental sounds, east
