Professor Wood demonstrated a

which produced ultra violet rays
invisible to the naked eye. His au-

through a wide angle telescope de-
vice which caused them to become
visible and to take on a phOspheor.

Professor Wood said the govern

to produce a light which would be
visible to those who knew Of it but
would be invisible to the enemy.
The discovery was made shortly
after the armistice, the speaker
said, explaining that it would be
used primarily in signalling, but
probably could be developed into
many other uses
Either airplanes, battleships or
land forces could use it for signal

used ON aviation fields for night

MUSIC CHIEF OF MAJOR
ARTS, DECLARES EDISON
Has Elevated II to
Highest Sphere, Inventor
Asserts

Music, according to Thomas A.
Edison, is the greatest of the major
arts, and she Is devoting all his en-
ergies and resources to it's introduc-
tion into every home in the country.
There are several major arts, and
of these music, in my opinion, is the
greatest" the famous inventor de-
clared in a message read by his son
Charles before the Edison caravan
convention in New York city recently.
"The masterpieces of music appeal to
practically everyone, because the ap-
peal is in a language that is under
stood by everyone.
"The influence of music has here
toforc been restricted, because music,
unlike books, could not be multiplied
at will and distributed throughout
the world, at a cost within the reach
OF every one. The phonoGraph did
much to change this condition.
II have been quoted as desiring to
see n phonograph in every American
home. What / want to see in every
American home is music, so realistic
and so perfect in its rendition as to
be an unending source OF benefit and
pleasure. To this end l am prepared
to devote every energy and all the re-
sources at my command"

The dominant theme OF the Eastern

held in New York city was the in
creasingly important place music Is
occupying today in the life OF the in

keynote struck by many OF the
speakers was the corresponding ne
cessity for making larger provision
for this study In the schools.
The statement that the New York
board OF education was demanding a
substantially increased appropriation
for music teaching was received with
enthusiasm by the visitin Dschool mu-
sic officials, as was also the assertion
that music is the most vital element
in public education, made by Carlton
V. Gibson. superintendent OF schools
in Savannah. Georgia. who added:
I'VE shall find in the next five years
in Industrial centers that group sing
ing will quiet labor conditions better
than machine guns"
Among the most popular sessions
were those on school credits for pri-
vate music study, the teaching OF
music appreciation in the grade
schools. school violin classes. tnN

BRIGHTER PROSPECTS AHEAD.
Washington should soon find herself
equipped with a bigger physical plant
for civics-one with beauty in its set
ting that will not make her blush at
comparison with smaller communities.
And what we need is a normal, pro.
gressive, cooperative program that
will continue tho awakened civic
consciousness that brought all the
people together, with one accord. in
the stirring community events dur
ing the war.
We've been bound around with
some red tape--but the color is grow
ing roster as time passes, and with
brighter prospects ahead the red tape
should change its hue to ''couleur de
rose" and more liberal policy
should be used in the service of this
outdoor field as a community recrea-

We do not need the organ. We
have our hi - school orchestra, the
orchestra Of the Washington College

than Mr.. Freeman. About twenty-five
years ago DR.. +. Ziegfeld brought
Mr.. Freeman 10 the writer's studio at

Mr. Freeman was then studying the

"In former years, spurious labels
were put into new commercial instru-
ments, not with a view of defrauding
or deluding purchasers, but rather to
indicate the model after which the
violins were built, and thus after
these violins had been kept within
certain families as heirlooms or FAM
lily relics, when they were unearthed
some difficulties were encountered
in picking the genuine from the imi-
tations, but in thirty years of deal

StradVari or Amati that was un-
known. l have examined a least o.
900 violins. and have vet to discover
Stradivarius, an Amati or a Guar

collector or some other authoritative

1T is fact that no genuine Stradi-
varius has been unearthed either in
this country or in Europe in over
