such a loud, mule-bray that 1t

What A Boy Did
With A Toy Radio

The human voice has been trans
mitted across the ocean only twice.
and the second time occurred few
weeks ago, when 15-year-old boy
sent message to Scotland by
means OF a toy radio telephone, es-
tab!ished In a little shed in back
of his keyport IN. JD home.
1t was quite an achievement, we
will admit, to send ones voice over
a distance of $500 miles; it is
greater achievement to do it with
only a toy instrument. The boy
who accomplished this feat first be-
came interested in wireless about
year ago. AT that time he brought
home part of an apparatus, meant
only for amateurs to play around
with. He collected bits of appar-
atus and studied them, and learned
to send messages to friends a
couple of blocks away Then he
realized that to be successful, he
should have more definite knoWl-
edge, so he took up two months
course in wireless school in New
York and learned many details OF
the work. 1t has been a pastime
and a hobby, not real job as yet,
but out Of his use of odd moments
this boy has become familiar with
a wonderful new invention, and has
already made for himself reputa-
ton as a wireless operator.
We all have spare moments. Do
we turn them to account1 OF course
we feel that having spent most OF
the day in study, we are entitled to
some recreation. That is true, and
we work all the better if we do re-
lax and enjoy ourselves at the
proper time. Many of us. though.
find our keenest enjoyment in in
dulging some hobby-just as the
boy mentioned above loved to fool
with wireless apparatus in his
spare time. 1t is likely, though.
that even while we are enjoying
ourselves in some such fashion as
this, we are not getting all the fun
we might out of our particular
hobby. There is lot of fun to be
had in finding out things, and IL
We make practice of mixing a
little study in with our pursuit OF
a hobby, as did this boy, We will
find that we are getting more real
enjoyment out of it and acquiring
some very important knowledge as
well-From the editorial column Of

beasts out. But when Billy saw
them coming he ran up the altar
steps into the pulpit, and Betty ran
through the first door she saw open,
which proved not to be the outer
door, but one which led into the
room where the choir boys dressed.
When Betty appeared there, the
boys laughed and screamed and
drove her out into the church
again, and kicking up her heels she
ran out of the church, braying for
Billy. When Billy saw her go he
ran down the altar steps, upsetting

Farmhouse Near
aurora Burned

Aurora, Or, July 13.-The house on
the Lew Prahl farm near here, which
was occupied by Mrs. McInness, was
consumed by fire early Wednesday
morning, together with most of the
| contents. The origin of the fire is un-
known. The alarm was given through
the Aurora telephone office and many
citizens along the line rushed to the
scene of the conflagration, but were
unable to render much assistance. The
entire upper part of the house was
enveloped in flames before the fire
was discovered, and although many
people responded to the call, little as
sistance could be rendered.
The property is said to have been a
total loss, as there was no insurance
on the house or furniture.
Little hope is entertained for the re-
covery of Charles Zimmerman, 50
years of age, who was injured a few
days ago by fall from a cherry tree
in his yard. Mr.. Zimmerman is con-
fined in a hospital in Portland and
late reports are to the effect that he
is not recovering as rapidly as was
hoped he might. Owing to his ad-
vanced years 1t is believed that he will
not recover.

Dallas, July 13.-The fire at the
Willamette Valley Lumber companys
mill is still burning but only the
heavy timbers and the foundation of
the mill remain to burn out There
is little danger of the fire spread
ing. at this time. Crews of men are
on the watch day and night and it
will only be few days until these
crews can be dispensed with. The
estimated loss of three hundred thou
sand dollars has been reduced since
the invoice has been taken of ma
terials which were destroyed by the
fire, to total loss of one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. The plant
was fairly well covered by insurance
and the work of rebuilding will be-
gin according to authentic reports
as soon as the insurance is adjusted
and the burning embers permit. On
ly few trucks which were used for
transferring lumber about the yard
and few thousand feet of lumber
were lost. The boilers of the mill were
not materially damaged and cannot
be considered loss. Most all of the
mill hands will be employed in re-
construction and, at the present time,
in cleaning up the debris. The log
ging operations in the logging camps
from where the mill got it's supply
of logs will not be discontinued but
kept operating at full capacity. The
light plant, which is adjoining the
mill. depends upon the fuel from the
fuel from the mill to furnish heat for
their plant. This at first
seemed to be big question confront
ing the light and power company but
the partially burned timbers are be-
ing used to upply fuel for the light
plant and will undoubtedly be suffi-
cient to last until the new mill can
begin operating. There is, however, a
possibility of many of the
homes in Dallas being seriously af-
fected as a good many of them de-
pended upon the mill for their wood
supply. No doubt the price of cord
wood in and around Dallas will in
crease, due to shortage and demand
