PHONING ACROSS
OCEAN is NEXT

London.-Within six months we
may be speaking to New York
Cleveland, Chicago, San Francisco
and any of the other towns of the
ing when the whole world will, thru
united States.
The time is rapidly approach
the medium of wireless, be on in
Simultaneous speaking terms. The
prospect is a dazzling one, both from
a commercial and social view, and it
opens up endless possibilities.
We are going ahead with the con-
struction of the wireless stations,
and possibly by next autumn we
shall be in position to open the
service with the United States.
The working will be quite simple
as far as the public is concerned.
You will ask for the telephone num-
Der you want in any of the Ameri-
can towns. The message will be laid
on the wireless and transmitted
across the Atlantic, where our sta
tions will tro sfer it to the Ameri-
can lines. Messages will travel at
the rate of 100000 miles per sec
ond; communication will be instan-
taneous.
We are going to bring every coun-
try in the world into telephone COM
munication with each other-not in
an indefinite time, but very soon.
The rates will be cheap, possibly a
shilling a minute.
In year or so we hope to estab-
lish regular telephone communica-
ton with Australia and London will
be able to speak to Melbourne or
Sydney as easily as New York. In
dia and Egypt will also come into
the service.

What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF AcclpENTsi

THE high-brows, the scientific in
i vestigators Of dream phenomena.
have invented q fearful and wonderful
word for the art Of taking Omens
from dreams. The call 1t oneirOmancy
five syllables, accent on the second.
Freud, in answer to the question,
Does the dream have any value for
a knowledge Of the futureT" would
substitute 'fOr a knowledge Of the
past" for "the dream originates In
the past In every sense. He adds In
his Enthusiastically involved and
transcendental manner ITO be sure the
ancient belief that the dream reveals
the future is not entirely devoid Of
truth. BY representing to us wish
as fulfilled the dream certainly leads
us into the future, but this future
taken by the dreams as present. has
been formed into the likeness of the
past by the indestructible WISH" Read
that over several times and perhaps
you will see what the learned profess
sOr is driving at.
The ancients, especially the Per-
SLAMS, Egyptians and Greeks who
erected the foretelling of events by
dreams into an art, divided dreams
into different kinds, only one kind of
which would literally come true and
would not interpret the dreams of
people who had been drinking. And
some modern soothsayers refuse to
regard as prophetic dreams caused by
indigestion or alcohol. Bishop Syne-
sius, who lived in the fourth century
and will be remembered by all readers
of Charles Kingsley's Hypatia, wrote
a treatise on dreams in which he
states thatas no two people are alike
the same dream does not have the
same significance for everybody and
we must find out the meaning of our
dreams for ourselves. All of which is
well to remember when we consider
the dicta of the modern mystics in
regard to such dreams as say those
of accidents for instance. Some mys-
tics say that to dream of seeing or
being in an accident merely means
that you are to have an unexpected
meeting with some acquaintance;
others that 1t is a warning not to
travel for while. According to still
others to see an accident in dream
means short-lived worries and to
dream of being in one, slow but
sure success in life.

CLERK ALMOST KEPT
JUDGE FROM BALL GAME

San Francisco.-Judge Thomas F.
Graham recently sentenced the clerk
in his court, William H. McNulty, to
five days for contempt of court be-
cause of a momentary lapse from his
customary Difference to the judge.
The sentence was subsequently re-
mitted and McNulty instead was CIV
en- a reprimand.
McNulty's error occurred when
attorneys in the estate of c. H.
Ward requested a continuance and
the clerk set the hearing for April
6.
AS soon as McNulty announced
the date, Judge Graham sternly adj
Judged the clerk guilty of contempt
and imposed the sentence.
The clerk stared at the Judge in
establishment. Then ray of light
dawned.
The 1920 baseball season of the
Pacific Coast league opened on April
6, and as Judge Graham is former
president of the San Francisco team
and a regular baseball FAM" he al
ways attends the opening game of
the season, therefore the judges &C

SECRETARY PAINE
BACKS STATE u.

John Barton Payne, new secretary
of the interior, Friday ruled that the
claims of the University of Idaho to
lands on Lake Occur d'Alene, orig
inally set apart for cadet camp
site, are still valid, Notwithstanding
homestead entries which north
Idaho attorneys attempted to make
on the assumption that the state
had lost right to the land.
Legislative negligence tells the
whole story. The land was set apart
for the state at the original appraised
value. One legislature approved
an appropriation for its purchase but
did not offer enough money. Fol-
lowing legislatures, thru several ses-
sions, failed to make a new appro-
priation.
When the north Idaho attorneys,
Morgan, Boom and Rogers, began
their action, the state board of edu-
cation notified the department of the
interior of its intention to purchase
the land and explained the delay.
Fridays ruling recognizes the
state claims with the proviso that
the next legislature must make the
proper appropriation and purchase
the land.
Because of it's timbered condition
and lakeside location the land in
VOWED is especially valuable and de-
sirable.

PRAISE FOR AMERICAN NAVY.
Emerges From the World War Strong.
er Than Ever.

hingtOn-IncOmpa stronger
and more efficient than ever before,
the American navy emerged from the
world war second only to that of
Great Britain and far in advance of
any other foreign navy in ships, in
men and every element of strength
Secretary Daniels declared in his an
nual report.
With IS capital ships-12 super
dreadnaughts and giant battle cruis-
ers-under construction, all represent
ing the last word in naval construc-
ton, and several superior to any fight
ing vessels now in commission, the
navy is pressing forward to greater
things" Mr.. Daniels said.
The actual cost of the navy to the
nation during the war was placed by
the secretary at S2,9S2 100000. Dur
ing the next fiscal year, he said, the
navy's needs will be approximately
S573. 131 ,254. or approximately 100000
600 less than the sum asked for dur
ing the present fiscal year.
Recommendations by the secretary
for the betterment of the service in
Guided:
Extension of the course at the naval
academy to five years, so the midship-
men may spend one year aflOat as
enlisted men.
Immediate enlargement of the naval
establishment on the Pacific coast, to
take care of the new Pacific fleet.
Temporary increases in pay of Of
ficers and enlisted men and increases
in amounts allowed for Communication
of quarters and other allowances.
Government control of wireless
communication.
Expansion of the naval service and
continuation of the present policy Of
a separate air service for the navy.

BOY SCOUTS END
DRIVE FOR FUNDS
Continued from page one

and the Springfield school made up
subscription of $14.70 earlier in
the week, which added to the high
school donation brought the total to
$22.70.
Then on Saturday afternoon, to
wind the thing up, eight boy scouts
of Blackfoot Troops No. 1 set up
stands at the post office, the First
National bank, Boyle's hardware
store, the Rowles-Mack store and
Murpheys cigar store to give the
public chance to help. A generous
response resulted in an accumula-
ton OF pennies, nickles, dimes, quar-
tiers and half dollars in the amount
of $27.S5, bringing the drives total
to $5005.
Each stand was equipped with a
tripod formed with three Springfield
rifles, stacked according to army
regulations, and with a German or
American helmet hung upside down
from one of the bayonets to catch
the change in. At each stand was a
large poster indicating the object
lof the solicitation. The boys who
had charge of these posts were: Ellis
Murphy, Cecil Miltenberger, Gerald
and Robert Stewart, Pierce Taylor,
Howard Campbell, Graham Parkin-
son, John Hale. Most of the boys
wore their official scout uniform.
1t is not too ambitious to suppose
that for some Of these children
there will be a trip to France some
day, and those who do 60 and be-
hold the result of this little drive
will be able to take a certain amount
of pride in the fact that they helped
to build the great statue, of which
they will find the French people very
proud.
