MUSIC BY WIRELESS.
Tina Lerner's Playing on Board Ship;IIeard
on Other Vessels 500 Miles AWAY.

Imagine sailing on ship in mid-ocean
and being able to hear your favorite pian-
Ist In concert that she is giving on board
vessel hundreds of miles away! The
possibility is not so remote as one might
surmise, for ON Washington's birthday
last, lima Lerner, the distinguished Young
Russian pianist, gave a recital on board
the Ventura on her homeward Journey
from Honolulu, and enjoyed the unique
thrill of feeling that her music was being
heard by wireless operators on board pas
senger and freight steamers as far as 500
miles away.
In the concert room where Miss Lerner
was playing, a tranSmitter was placed,
and by means of recently perfected
wireless telephone apparatus, the music
was sent out over large radius.
The experience of listening to this con-
cert was far more novel than participant
ing IN the demonstrations which have
recently been tried successfully, when
singers and speakers in San Francisco
were heard at meetings and banquets in
New York and other cities. At these
functions the guests were provided with
telephones, through which they heard
every tone distinctly. Even the applause
that the singers received on the Pacific
Coast was accurately transmitted, and all
the thrills that attended the real concert
were felt by this 'tproxy audience" on
the other side of the continent.
That, however, was over telephone
wires To play the piano while isolated
in mid-ocean and have the notes float
through the air and bring pleasure to
those far distant, does much toward the
complete humiliation of space and causes
us to wonder what tomorrow may bring
forth.
When we are far from homeland think
OF the loved ones left behind, shall we
be able to commune with them through

FLOWING LINES.

The new sport wells that go so perfectly
with the sport hats that everyone wears
are in perfect accord with the emphasis
given to long flowing lines. The striped
border of the veil especially designed for
the beach, motoring, travelling and all
outdoor uses, adds to the allurement and
effectiveness of the sport suit. Coming
in matching or contrasting color tones
that set off or harmonic with a costume,
and loosely adjusted this veil can be
thrown back at will and the draperies are
as fetching off as over the face.
BRAID AND SATIN
Satin dresses are stylishly trimmed
with braids this season, either narrow
soutache or wider fancy braids.
