The Wireless Wave.

In articles on wireless telegraphy such expressions as 200 meter wave lengths. 600 meter wave lengths, 15,OOO meter wave lengths, are constantly used. In reply to a correspondent who asks how the length of the waves is measured the Scientific American gives the following simple explanations:
 The length of an electric wave is determined by wave meter. The natural wave length of an aerial is four times it's linear length. just as the wave length of a note of q closed or gan pipe is four times the length of the pipe. and the wave length of the note of tuning fork is four times the length of the box which is resonant with the note. However, other consid- erations make 1t difficult to measure the wave length by a rule. and the wave meter gives a more correct result than can be found by measuring the length of the wire

GEORGIA TO BE IN FOREFRONT
OF NATIONWIDE PROHIBITION

Atlanta, Ca, Sep. 4.-Bone dry
! Georgia is going to be in the fore
front of the fight for nationwide pro
hibition when a campaign in behalf
i of the amendment to the federal
constitution is launched in this state
on September 8 for a run of six
weeks until November 10.
The campaign is one of several
hundred of it's kind TO be conducted
throughout the country by the Anti
Saloon League of America with the
cooperation of the various state lea
CUES, and the Georgia Anti-Saloon
/ League, of which James A. Christian
is superintendent, has secured some
of the most noted speakers in the Tn
tied States for the campaign in this
state.
Approximately IS per cent of the
| territory Of the United States has
| been voted dry, and about GO per-
cent of the population of the United
States has adopted prohibition. New
Mexico, Wyoming, Minnesota, Mis-
souri, and Florida have submitted
statewide prohibition by constitu-
tional amendment to a vote of the
people The ratification of the amend
ment for national prohibition, if it is
incorporate prohibition in the con
approved by thirty-six states, will
/ stitution of the United States.
Only ten more states are needed
to finish the job. In the dryest of
ten states which still have local OPP
ton, there are only 1000 saloons. The
last Congress voted the national cap
ital and the District of Columbia dry
and the law was approved by the
| President The same Congress also
passed law prohibiting the ship
ment of liquor into dry states and a
law prohibiting the carrying by mail
into dry states Of newspapers or
ether publications containing liquor
advertisements.
These facts show the wonderful
growth of the nationa prohibition
movement and the Anti-Saloon Lea
que of America expects to win the
fight for adoption of the prohibition
amendment to tho r leral constitu-
edition
