unemployment than any city of its size
in the United States. They add that theil
problem is to get labor to work. rather
than to get work for labor. Much of the
labor hereabouts is Mexican. With high

San Antonio's knowledge comes from long

San Antonio is more Spanish than any
other city in the United States. With
the Alamo, the Missions, the great old
cathedral, the palace OF the Governor,
now used as a Chinese mission, but still
bearing on its walls the coat of arms
Of the Hapsburgs, the last Hapsburgs in

restaurants, where a good number Of
Mexicans eat at crude tables while food,
highly spiced, is cooked in crude ovens,
or freplaces by their side; with much
of the old side by side, with much of the
new to be found in the old part Of the
city; with tolling Of cathedral bells to
mark each passing hour, as the hours
have been marked for centuries in San
Antonio; with pattos in many stately
old home, a delightful one in the Men

the present on evry side, San Antonio
has a character and charm all Its own.

TELL LOST SHIPS
WHERE They ARE
u. S. Radio Compass Sta
tions Able to Guide YES
sells Bewildered
NEW METHOD is
VERY SIMPLE

BOSTON. - Radio compass sta
edons, maintained by the United
States Navy at more than 100 places
along the Atlantic, Pacific and Great
Lakes coasts as aids to mariners in
foggy weather. have robbed the sea
OF many Of its victims, say New Eng
hand seafaring men.
Last year. with but 20 stations in
operation, the naval men informed
the captains OF 1874 fog-shrouded
vessels Of their location and thus en-
abled them to. lay their courses to
their ports Of destination. An aver
age time Of four to six minutes was
required to make the calculations
upon which this information was
based.
How a wireless station on shore
can tell the master Of a vessel lost in
the fog just where his vessel is seems
something like a miracle TO a lands
man, but It is simple enough to the
operators Of the system. It works
this way: The radio operator in a
compass station on shore picks out
OF the air the letters 20 T +" flashed
from a vessel lying perhaps 100 miles
tional code of these letters mean.
What is my true bearing" and
queries are coming to the shore sta
tion with such increasing frequency
as to testify to the dependence which
ship masters are placing on this
modern aid TO navigation.
once the signal is heard the radio
operator adjusts his radio compass to
meet the direction whence IL comes.
This compass is merely a rectangular
coil Of wire mounted on a vertical
plane and fixed to turn so as to face
in any direction. II acts like a me-
chanical ear and from II the operator
can tell clearly in what direction the
vessel lies from him. other stations
along the shore act in the same way
These report to a central station and
compare notes.
The distance Of the ship from the
shore can be told approximately by
the wireless operators by the
strength OF her signals.
II the ship lies East from one sta
tion and South from another. the
point where these lines cross is tn,
ships location. Once this is done
the wireless operators on shore hav,
only to tell the ships master his po.
sition in terms Of latitude and longi.
tude.

LITTLE VISITS WITH

grosbeak. In some localities he is
called "potato-bug eater" and he
richly deserves a welcome from
everybody. Although the name Is
not high-sounding, and bird should
be welcome in ones garden II he
eats those loathsome beetles.
1 looked over my small potato
patch early one summer evening,
and noted many potato bugs that
deserved death. The two-sticlSs-
and-squash method is sure, but
messy, and I abhor II, so 1 decided
to send the bugs on b ythe poison
route next morning.
I arose with the birds-or thought
I was doing so-to get in my deadly
work.. But as went into the gar
den 1 frightened up Mr.. GrosbealS
and his sober-looking, quaker-ar
rayed mate. Investigation revealed
no potato bugs. although I looked
underneath as well as on top Of the
leaves Ny featherd friends had
beaten me TO the slaughter, and 1
knew 1 could now trust them TO take
care of the potato patch as long as
they resided in the neighborhood .
They picked a home site in an apple

bug to fatten in my garden.
