Telephone Secrets
Explained to High
School Physicists

Telephone subscribers of the next
decade should have far better
NhoWledge of the actual workings of
ne telephone system than their seniors
toaay. The Physics club of New
york, an organization which includes
Practically all of the instructors of
rcIysical sciences in the Metropolitan
scholastic zone, celebrated its annual.
election and business meeting by max
ing an inspection of the laboratories
OF the Western Electric company at
foS west street, New York city. The
most modern transmission develop
nents were thoroughly explained to
The educators, a fact which is sure to
DC reflected in a more comprehensive
understanding Of telephony among
their many thousand students
The new machine switching devices
which are now being introduced and
VIII automatically make connections
between subscribers seemed of partic-
ular interest to the professors. They
also spent considerable period watch
ing the manipulations of the repeaters
which have made possible the trans
continental telephone.
The Western Electric authorities
demonstrated the actual development
OF the telephone by taking the visitors
through the museum where they have
on exhibition the actual first inven-
tons and their various stages Of inn
provement right up to date. The gen
Grafton of electric current by means OF
Rochelle salts and the application OF
this Phenomenon in the use of its
crystals both as telephone receivers
and transmitters were eagerly studied
the teachers.
TAT enc conclusion of the inspection
trip the Physics club convened for it:
annual election of officers. The new
executives are all prominent in New
York high school circles. Morris
Meister, formerly instructor of physic:
at St1yvesant high school and now a
Teachers college Columbia university
was elected president; Guy r. Thorn
as OF New Utrecht high school. Brook
lyn. was chosen secretary; while tn
new treasurer is c.. w. Lockwood, in

merchants carried so complete a line o.
electrical gifts as may be found il
their shops now. There are doubles.
many electrical gifts not listed her,
which they can get for you, in cas-,
they have not already stocked.
The best policy for the Christina

while stocks are complete, while tn
store forces are not tired out, while /
is possible to get what you want b.
special order to the factory in case it

PORTABLE ELECTRIC HEATERS
AS COAL SAVERS

ECONOMICALLY the electric heater now
has much more to commend it than it
did in the days when coal could be OBJ
tanned for Sc or 81 a ton. In those days
it was considered that the cost, of heat
ing a home electrically would be many
times as much with electricity as with
coal, but now that the price of coal is
two and one-half to three times what
it was, the discrepancy in coSt is much
less marked. Where power is avail
able electric heaters offer an almost
ideal arrangement for the early months
of the winter season.

IN DAYS GONE BY

A temperance lecturer displayed to
his audience two geraniums. The first
had been watered in the usual way;
the other had been dosed with alcohol
and it's foliage was shriveled and
sparse, its stem twisted and its vital
ity decayed.
Now, ladies and gentlemen" cried
the lecturer, what can you say to a
demonstration like that?"
Its all right, and If / were a geran-
ium," said q shabby man at the back OF
the hall, I'D stick to water; but, you
see, I'm not a geranium. Minneapolis

GIFT SUGGESTION LIST
FOR CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS

Christmas will soon be here. There
are not many more days remaining
until this happiest of all days of the
year rolls in upon us.
There has always been one feature
Of the Christmas season, however,
which has been hardship on the gift
buyer. That has been the uncertainty
as to what to buy. So numerous are
the many useful gifts displayed in the
stores that it has become a perplexing
matter for the man or woman desir
ing to buy presents to make a selection.
Therefore, nothing is so welcome to
the tired Christmas shopper as a real
list. This suggestion list
should for the most part be composed
of essential or comfort giving articles.
1t is Just as easy to find such a gift,
and undeniabIy more appropriate, than
to give some useless foible.
In these days, when, compared with /
the luxury and comfort given for the /
price. nothing is so inexpensive as cleo
tricity, it behooVes the gift purchaser to |
carefully scan the list of electrical |
gifts. For the benefit of all, there is /
herewith listed some suggestions in the
way of electrical merchandise which |
is on display at practically every cleo |
tricaI store. The electrical merchant |
will gladly show you these "gifts" and |
explain the merits of them. Cut this |
list out and carry it with you when you
start your Christmas shopping.

MADE GARLIC LIKE FLOWERS

Yea. Verify, II Must Have Had Pow
erful Kick.
Who he Is and what he had to drink
are unknown.
This much is known: The man,
dressed as Adam was supposed to
have been, whom Patrolman James
Bray of Oakland, Cal, excavated from
garden of garlic at Fifth and Ches-
ter streets one night, knew how to dig
and how to snore.
Under the influence of strong drink,
the man had entered the garlic patch,
Invested himself of his clothing, folded
everything in neat pile and then had
dug a hole deep enough to hold him.
He heaped the dirt about himself
until he was firmly packed In with
the exception of his head.
Then he went to sleep.
The mans shores directed Bray's
attention his way. Bray all but strfn-
bled over the mans head. A few min
utes' further digging and he had freed
the man.
At the hospital 1t was said he would
live. Bray holds to the theory that
the man thought he was summing HIM
self at the seashore-he was that
happy.

BRITISH To DEVELOP
ANTARCTIC WEALTH
Imperial Expedition, to Leave in
June, Will Seek Scien-
tific Data.

The scientific exploration and COM
mercial development Of the regions
lraversed will be the main object of
the British imperial antarctic expedi-
ton, which will leave England in
June for FIVE years exploration In the
antarctic, during which an attempt
will be made to reach the South
pole by airplane. DR.. John l.. Cope,
the surgeon and biologist In the Ross
sea party Of the Shackleton expedi-
ton. who will command the new expe-
dition, has given the purposes Of the
journey as follows:
l. To ascertain the position and ex-
tent of the mineral and other deposits
Of economic value already known to
exist in Antartica Through the scien-
tific reports Of Bruce, Mawson, Scott
and Shackleton) and to obtain data
for their practical development as
to a further source of imperial wealth.
2. To obtain further. evidence Of
the localities and migration of whales
Of economic value, and to create Brit
ish industries in this trade.
8. To investigate the meteorological
and magnetic conditions In the Ross
sea area and at Cape Ann (Enderby
laHd) in connection with their influ-
ence in similar conditions in Austral-
asia and South Africa, respectively,
That such results are of great econOm-
ic value has been proven by the station
established by the Argentine govern
ment for similar purposes in the
South Orkneys.
A. To circumnavigate the antarctic
continent.
5. Generally to extend the knowl-
edge of Antarctica, especially with a
view to obtaining further scientific
data of economic Importance.
The cost of the expedition Is esti-
mated at f15O,OOO.
Capt. G. III. wilkins, chief of the
scientific staff to the Stefansson expe-
dition, will accompany Doctor Cope
as chief of the scientific staff for the

Turing Fields.

Five arrests have been made in the
last two days for watermelon steal
ing. The first two arrests were Wins
low Couro and George Gleghorn, two
local boys who were caught in patch
between Ell Centre and Holtville They
were kept in the county Jail over night
and let go the next day
The other three arrests were Harry
Smith, o. B. May and Charlie Sinarl,
three boys from Portersville, Cal.
According to their story the three
boys were working at home when some
one told them that wages as high as
$3.50 per hour were being paid in Inn
perial Valley for farm laborers. They
left home and when they arrived here
found that all reports were false con-
cerning the enormous wages in the
valley
After going from town to town they
ran out of gas for their car and had
no money for anything to eat. Last
night between Ell Centre and Calexico
they found a watermelon field, and be-
ing hungry, they entered it and ate a
few of the choicest melons. The owner
caught them and had them arrested
for stealing his melons. A prelimin-
ary trial was held this morning in JUS
tice of the Peace Mavfield's court.
Justice Mayfield withheld his decision
until he receives corroboration of the
boys statements. He will give his de-

Justice Mayfield stated that anyone
caught stealing watermelons would be
prosecuted just the same as if they
were stealing money, as the farmers
are depending on their water melon
crops for their living and could not
afford to have nightly marauders
stealing the crops. The watermelon
growers are requesting the authorities
for protection against melon thieves.

LIFELESS DRIVER
AT AUTO WHEEL
(By Associated Press)

SAN DIEGO, July 14.-With life
less driver at the wheel, an Essex
automobile meandered on and off the
highway for about 400 feet before
coming to stop in ditch near AL
pine yesterday. The machine was
practically uninjured.
The body of James E. Powers, al,
of Campo, was in the drivers seat
when the machine was found in the
ditch. The man who found the car
and it's lifeless driver reported his dis
covery to George Either at Alpine
and Ether called Coroner Schuyler
C. Kelly.
Coroner Kelly traced the course of
the machine from where it first left
the highway to where it stopped in a
ditch. The automobile after leaving
the road, travelled alongside the high
way for short distance, turned bac',
on the road and then left the highway
and headed for the ditch where it was
stopped by the wall of earth.
When the coroner arrived, the car
was in second gear. There was no
hill at the place and an explanation
for the machines being in interned-
late gear was lacking. 1t was thought
that Powers felt heart ;ttac,,
coming and stopped, but started agair
and had shifted only to second geai
when he lost consciousness.
That it was heart trouble that
caused Powers death was the belief
expressed by the coroner. No mark.
were found on the mans body tx
show that death had resulted from
any but natural causes. The bod.
was brought to the Johnson-Sauni un
dertaking establishment.
