FIRST MEETING OF WIRELESS
COURSE VERY FASCINATING

The fascination of wireless teleg-
raphy firmly attached itself to several
scouts and scoutmasters last Tuesday
scout wireless course was held at
scout headquarters. When those fel-
lows heard messages from Paris Lon
don. Mexico City and other far dis
tant stations, they decided there was
no chance for them until they learned
more about the wireless Five scouts,
ranking from eagle down to second
class. and thrce assistant scout mas
tcrs went up to the wireless room
at the court house and listened in
on messages being sent out by ships
and land stations in some very far
away places OF course. tho scouts

interested beginners Each person,

listened to the faint buzzings that
came over tho aerial. Each one firm

this privilege. each member must bo
able to send and receive between
twenty and twenty-five words per

but every scout is confident that he
will not be one of those who will
be restrained from entering the wiro-
less room because they have not
learned the code. There are places
for a fcw more scouts and officials
in the class. Any scout who has
passed his first-class test or any SEC

Mast For Amateur Wireless

Tho amateur wireless station has
been greatly Influenced by the war.
Methods employed in radio work in
the field are being initiated, moro
or less. even in the smallest stations.
Take. for example, the metal masts
used in the field sets. This method
of raising the aerials is at once so
simple and efficient that amateurs
have been quick to initiate It.
1t lis possible to erect very sorv-
iceablc and satisfactory mast by using
few lengths of common iron pipe
such as may be purchased at any
hardware store. By using pipe of
different size n telescope mast may
be readily constructed. In some cases.
such masts have been raised as high
as "A hundred feet. which Ia sufficient
for ordinary purposes. If the mast
goes higher it is. OF course, noces-

The Southard Verdict

It is outside jurisdiction but will take the liberty of induging in comment on the verdict in case Mrs Lydia Southland, convicted of the murder by poison of the last decedent of long series of husbands. The earlier decedents all went hence supposedly by the same route There was some testimony as the circumstances of the demise of some of them. though Mrs. Southard not trial the murder of those who succumbed earlier
 We believe enough poison found in the anatomy of Meyer the last who died to kill horse. It also testified that Mrs. Southard had pur- chased poison that kind. also shown that before the body of her husband was laid away, she was taking steps forestaH public curiosity the of his death. It also shown that Mrs. Southard had had strong notions that of tn. duties of the husband almost condition precedent to matrimonial relations with her, take out plenty of life insurance.
 All this seemed to constitute pretty strong case against her. The jury seemed been i'm pressed. It felt that she was in culpable to the death of Meyer that she not wholly innocent the matter of his taking off: in short. that she had something to do with it. It could not therefore acquit her outright Juries must make some show sometimes of observing the oaths admin istered to them. So this jury found her guilty of murder the degree, of which she plainly not guilty according to the evidence We think that any supreme court in the land would reverse this verdict as contrary to t,e evidence But probably the supreme court will not have opportunity to pass it. Mrs. Southard alone go to the preme
 It is impossible to commit murder in the second degree by of poison. Murder by poison is murder in the first degree nothing. Of course. poison may be administered accidentally but that is not murder.
 We suppose though that those who are concerned in the enforcement of the laws ought thankful that it did to the jury to find South guilty of horse stealing.
