the Chamber Wireless Institute, 2O4G

but has no fear Of the indisposition OF
the deep.
'I've been on pleasure trips down
in Chesapeake bay" she said on the
pier before she stepped on the gangway
of the Grecian. "At times was

All the old songs of the sea will
have to be rewritten since Miss Cora
7. Weber, 1920 North Gratz street,
a wireless operator, has taken to sailing
the bounding main.
Miss Weber, who ''shipped" on the
Grecian, a passenger and cargo ship,
for Boston, Saturday afternoon, was
the first woman to 60 to sea to do u
mans full job and draw a mans pay.
Her duties and accommodations are the
same as those of male wireless
operator and she is expected to hold
down the job like regular sailor.
A few women have gone to sea to
assist wireless operators, but they only
Listened in" on the messages and did
receive and send messages, clean and
repair apparatus, and do all the neces-
sary work around the wireless "shack."
Can't Get Male Operators
The Marconi Company, which en-
gagged Miss Weber, finds it almost i'm
possible to get men for the position.
They have five ships in port for every
operator in their employ. and were very
glad to accept Miss Weber's offer to
help them out.
This not very ancient "mariness"
holds a first class commercial wireless
license, number 1866. which she took
out in Baltimore some months ago.
She will begin at salary of 500 n

PLAN END OF ZONE FARES
Meets Representatives OF
Jersey MuniclpalItles Today

When Thomas N. McCarter, president
of the Public Service Railway Com
pany, meets representatives of the New
Jersey municipalities in his Office at
Newark today plans for the abolition
of the trolley zone system will be dis
cussed. Conclusions arrived at will be
placed before the Public Utility Com
mission at Trenton tomorrow.
Representatives of the municipalities
have declared repeatedly that the zone
system is a failure and they will not
tolerate it. Mr.. McCarter has reversed
his position upon the zone system and
now favors its retention. His attitude,
he explained to the commission, is based
upon increased fare receipts.
The decision of the Utility Commis-
sion, after the result Of the conference
is placed before it tomorrow, is expected
10 settle the matter finally.

y course or dessert is a thing
to be welcomed, and hothouse
grapes from Belgium are something
different and delicious. Henry r.
Hallowell & Son, Broad Street below
Chestnut, have immense perfectly
shaped punches of them, the third

which these grapes were produced
are over 300 years old. Their roots
are outside the hothouse, so that no
injurious dampness will reach the
grapes, and while still green, the
punches are clipped so that they will
mature to perfect shape. Each grape
is busted with camel's-hair brush
to preserve its exquisite coloring.
When you see the grapes at Halo
