It Is difficult indeed to find some
thing really new in radio communica-
ton. Things which are hailed as new
In the daily press are more often
apt to prove merely developments or
improvements along well-known lines,
and 1t Is In that class that the recent
tree aerial tests at Washington fall.
AS far back as 1907. experiments were
carried out in which trees were en-
ployed as aerials. In the recent tests
messages were received over quite a
distance by mean Of tree aerials. 1t
was also pointed out that messages
could be transmitted through the
agency Of tree aerials over short dis
tances. However, In view of the re-
markedly sensitive receiving apparatus
available today, the use Of tree aerials
Is no more remarkable than It was
back In 1907. with the relatively crude
instruments of that time.-Scientinc

More than 100000 escaped to the

The refugees In the Aegean islands

Greek government gives each refugee
six cents a day.
The Red Cross is devoting much at
tention to the prevention of further
epidemlcs, such as the typhus scourge,
which took such a heavy toll at Myth

Food Is scanty and costly, and most
of the refugees are underfed, even In
the large towns. Nearly all are In
rags. The hospitals are short of medi-
cines and other supplies, and have
been crowded by influenza cases.
Clothing, blankets and medicine are

who dared death in this dreaded
