San Francisco Voice in Test Carried 5000 Miles to Z Arlington.

Washington, Nov. 4.-The call of q bugle, the chime of bells and the voice cf man were swept across the continent from San Francisco toda Y {" he hurled out over wide stretch of ground about Arlington National Cemetery with every note, every janEling vibration of the bells and every spoken syllable as distinct as though sounded q hundred feet from tho listeners ears. Yet the sounds originated in San Francisco the speaker stood on the roof of tho great civic auditorium there and the music camc from phonograph records played on the building on which he stood for an audience three thousand miles away.
 It was the formal dress rehearsal of the mechanism by which Presi- dent Hardng's voice, as he speaks the nations homage on ArmistiCe Day over the casket of America's un- known dead from France will be car Tied to an audience awaiting before the amplihers in New York and to another gathering in San Francisco to share in Americas great day of tribute.
 High officers of tho army and the olticialS of the American Telephone X Telegraph Company, which is making this contribution to the memory of the dead soldier, had no doubts of that success after the first sentence spoken at San Francisco was clearly audible to them at half mile distance from the ampiifiers on the amphitheater at Arlington.
 Similarly, there was long reading of Speeches from the stage of the amphthCater here to be carried out over the wires to san Francisco Tne few who witnessed the test first listened to this from every point about the great marble structure to a distance of more than half a mile. Every syllable pcnetrat ted clearly to every nook and hollow, making it certain that hundreds of thousands could hear the Presidents address, the prayers and the singing and music on ArmiSticc Day standing anywhere in the grounds about the structure.

One of the interesting developments has
been the change in the mems point of view
under the melowing influence of hospitality,
fresh air, green fields and the quiet of the
open country One boy who has done bit
of thinking remarked that he guessed there
would not be any Bolshevism among the ex-
service men IL the Government would send
them all out into the country and teach
them to work on the land.
Another man said: "The war took away
most of my ideals. and 1 didn't care much
what became of me since / got shot up but
this place has taught me there is something
worth working for after all. and l mean to
succeed in spite of my handicap"

programme in many communities and give

old, but judicious repairs have preserved its
Revolutionary quaintness, and the furnish

There have been picnic suppers and clam

houses have furnished season passes, and
the hotels have extended hospitality.

CAPACITY for self-government of the sort
England France and the United States have
developed has been disclosed in striking
fashion. But one is still safe in the con-
clusion that Germany is unlikely to return
to the old order and that she is far less
likely to follow the Russian example.
Even more heartenng has been the Rus
sian development. After two years the press
of the world has ceased to reflect apprehen-
sons OF a new Bolshevist offensive. The
rally of the Poles under the walls of Warsaw
has proved as fatal to the imperialistic pur
poses of the Reds as the battle of Sobesld
under the shadow of Vienna was for the
Turkish invasion a few centuries ago. If
the Reds have succeeded in overcoming
wrange and thus destroying the last do
nestic threat to their regime they have by
the Treaty Of Riga accepted frontiers which
throw them hack vast distances from the
lines they occupied two years ago.

Chasing a Bear

A NY one who has seen bear walk
~ knows how slowly he seems to move,
and his run is n shufiling, lumberng
gait that Is comical To witness unless ne
happens to be running after you. But
bear moves pretty fast notwithstanding
appearances. and the grizzly, which looks to
be clumsier than the brown or the black
bear. can cover ground faster than the
average horse.
An Arizona sheep rancher was riding in
the foothills when he saw a big. awkward
silvertip. lie had a rifle. but was not certain
he could kill the bear at one shot and knew
that he would get into trouble II he missed.
SO he gave a regular cowboy yell and the
bear started away in alarm.
The man gave chase. at the same time
keeping up the piercing yell, and he soon
noticed that the grizzly was getting further
away. He continued the chase for nearly
two miles. until the bear disappeared In the
mountains. and he had not gained a foot.
In going back over the trail he noticed
places where the bear had made jumps OF
fifteen or twenty feet, and the ground had
been cut up by his claws so that it looked
