Richard Mansfield, I'd, torn by
his mother about little more than
month ago from the Provincetown
Players in New York, is planning
now to take up In serious way the
work of war relief in France. He
announces that he will sail soon for
France, where he will join the
American Ambulance Corps.
The son of the great actor, who
is only eighteen years old, ran away
from school in Connecticut last De-
cember and was welcomed by the
Provincetown Players. A part was
given him and he was learning 1t

wings, seized him and carried him

yet, wireless inventors have almost always
'futilely battled against those very dis
turbances when trying to solve the prob
lens Of communication without wires. 1t
may be that this boy has surmounted all
the obstacles that are at present battling
the engineers.
Earl Hanson has been experimenting
with electricity and taking out patents
since he was twelve years old. The dem
Onstration that he gave to the mayor of
his city, the president of the telephone
company, and others showed that his ap-
paratus could send music, talk of any
kind, whispers, and signals without wires,
even though all around him the air was
broken and split by the operations of
other stations.
The young man gave receivers to

able achievements is that he uses very
low frequency wireless waves in new
way. All the great sending stations of
the world are enabled to send signals
without disturbance from other local sta
tons only by using very high frequencies.
The Arlington station uses so high tone
that the sound in the telegraph receivers
resembles the tone of a high-pitched bell.
This requires great deal of current and
very powerful sending station.
Words and music have often been sent
limited distances by wireless telephone,
but rarely has this been possible when
any other wireless station was using the
air. The greatest drawback to wireless
telephony and telegraphy has always
been that the air is one great Sine and
that it is usually busy.

How to Grow Sponges

Unless you have tropical sub
marine garden you can not grow the
ordinary animal sponges, such as
those for sale at the corner drugstore;
but if you would be satisfied with a vege-
table sponge that will do everything an
animal sponge can do, grow them your
self. A vegetable sponge can be grown
as easily in the United States as pump
kin or gourd-in fact, it is the interior
of certain type of gourd which grows
on the luffa plant.
The luffa plant requires long, hot
summer, but it can be started in a cold
frame early in the spring and then be set
out in the same manner that cucumbers
are handled. 1t is beautiful vine, and
a decoration to any garden; but, best
of all, there is money in the gourds.
An Ohio woman sold more than thou
sand vegetable sponges from her vines
last summer to garage company in her
town for use in cleaning automobiles.
She uses them for dsh-rags, scrubbing-
brushes and the ordinary purposes OF a
sponge. They are so tough that it is
difficult to exert enough effort on one
to wear it out.
The luffa gourd is approximately four
inches in diameter and about foot long.
The interior is composed of thick, tough
fibers, which, when sundered, make the
sponge. By cutting the husk in quar-
tiers the interior mass may be lifted out;
then spread it out on a roof to dry and
bleach. When bleached it forms hairy
mass, whichis as hard as an animal sponge;
but as soon as it is placed in water it
swels up, and becomes soft without los
ing it's toughness. 1t feels to the touch
like coarse Turkish towel.
The luffa gourd is grown in the South
for purposes of decoration and is known
there as the Californian okra. In the
tropics the luffa gourd is used, when
young and tender, in soups and meat
stews, and is sometimes preserved by sun
drying.
Experiment with vine next summer
the seed dealer will answer your call for
luffa seed.

they sounded sad farewell to our joie de vivre.
Then onward came the irresistible gray flood =.
Liege, Namur, onward, onward, and faces
very anxious at Bos- Colonies.
But do you know, we kept to accustomed
tasks-those of us who not called to serve la
Patrle: it helped to assure minds.
Each day my comrades and l worked making
Djer-Kiss,-trying to forget for the moment the
world outside IN,
Then came the Battle of the Marine We could
hear the rumbling and muttering of the cannon,
terrible in the distance. Precaution earth-works
were thrown up at our very door. Refugees poured
n-in twos and threes, in families and with little
ones;-they came dazed and forlorn.
1t no longer the moment for accustomed
tasks. Every hand was needed to help these I'M
happy ones. And for the first time we closed our
parfumerie
But when six weeks had passed, the thunder of
the everlasting had died away. One could
hear it then only, faint and very distant, when the
wind blew gently from the East. A place for each
refugee had been found. Everything had been
arranged. And again there need of occupation.
Then did we begin to make Djer-Kiss.
And since those days in 1o14-of the Battle of the
Marne-we have never stopped. Our parfumerie
has never been closed
For you must know that there are many of us
who can only serve la Patrie by-what is it the
English say?-" keeping the home fires burning
And we go about the accustomed tasks finding it
good to keep minds and hands employed. -
So it is, my good friends in America, that every
paquet of Djer-Kiss comes direct to you from
France, and from only.
And as we work over here in Bots Colonies de
Paris, may you know that we find help and diver
sion for our thoughts in preparing to please YOU

has absolutely given up hope of ever ex-
tinguishing it. Patches on the mountain
side glow in fame; wisps of smoke rise
from crevices. The whole interior of the
hill seems to be afire. In reality it is
only a vein of coal that is slowly being
consumed. As the fire progresses the
side of the hill caves in to the depth of
the vein.
Every device that Summit Hill knows
of has been tried in the effort to put out
the fire, and water has been pumped into
the mine almost continuously for sixty
eight years. If you have an idea as to
how 1t might be put out, run up to see
the fire chief, for he is well-nigh distraught.
The price of coal is still going up.
