DESERTED WIRES FOR ALTAR
Japanese Feminine Telephone Opera
y tors, superstitiously Inclined, In.
d, terferedE With Business.

p. The extent to which tradition and
superstition often interfere with Jap
anese business is, indicated by the
sudden increase in marriages among
telephone operators this year. One
of the oldest customs in Japan : Is
to assign the name OLA bird or an
animal to each year. The year 1920
!, was monkey year. which in Japan
csc ifs pronounced "saru.", Now, as
this also means ito 80 away" the ap-
prehension has arisen that girls mar
ried in that year, are very apt to be
deserted by their husbands. The fol
lowing year, however, is that of the
birds, for which the Japanese word
"tari'' means ITO take" Hence a
marked increase has been noted In

the matrimonial plunge. ]{,455pnr

Telenraphy by Taste.

Two radio engineers. Alfred y. Gold
smith and Edward Z. Dickey, have
recently condncted a series OF expert
ments withT@th object of determin-
J ing the feasibility Of reception OF
radio signals by the sense OF taste.
Electrodes were, made which could be
placed under the tongue II. such a way
as to cause taste sensation when q
source Of potential was connected to
them. Tests were made, using low fpo-
tential direct current, to ascertain the
amount Of energy and potential power
necessary for taste reception. The
reception Of actual signals from an
antenna was tried. 1t was found i'm
possible by using four stages OF am
utilization to obtain taste sensations
from all the signals the audibilty Of
witch was greater than 500 in the
3ietecfor circuit. The results obtained
thus Indicate that while from. an cleo
trieal standpoint it is possible to re-
5ceise RADIO signals by the sense Of
taste. the sense of taste is much in
ferior to that Of hearing or even Of
sight. az 4 Method Of reception,

EFFECT OF LIGHT ON EYES

Why should a watch dial be lumin-

In sunlight the pupils Of our eyes con

let in All the light they can. But our
pupils dofnot contract or expand in
stantly; they take fifteen minutes or
more even to 90 from their smallest to
their largest size. At night most st
us are in artificial light, which is sell
dom so strong as daylight, and conse-
luently our pupils expand good deal.
When we put out the light our pupils
do not have to expand far to enable
us to see we'll in the dark. y =

RICHARD CHARGED
TRAN TING
PRIZE FIGHT FILM
PROMOTER AND MOTION PIC
TURE PRODUCER TO APPEAR
BEFORE GRAND JURY TO
ANSWER THE CHARGE.

New York. July 25.--Tex Rickard.
promoter Of the July 2 fight between
Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpen-
tier In Jersey City, and F. c. Quinn
by. motion picture producer were
summoned to appear before the fed
eral grand jury today TO testify con.
cerning the alleged transportation OF
movies Of the fight into this state
from New Jersey in violation Of fed
eral law.
Mr.. Rickard declares he knows moth
ing of the transportation Of the pic
lures or plans TO show them here.
Mr.. Quimby also has denied any part
in their transportation, though admit
ting plans TO exhibit them. His con-
tention is that the federal law prohibit
ing interstate transportation Of pic
lures of prize fights does not apply
to the Dempsey-Carpentier bout as
that historic sporting event was a
boxing match and not prize fight.
Several hundred persons attracted
by advertisements and electric signs
atop a theater announcing first show
ing of the fight pictures last night
found the box office dark and were
unable TO gain any information as TO
when the actual showing would take
place.
1t was pointed out by some attor-
neys that no loffense could be shown
under the federal law unless the pic
lures aliegedly transported from New
Jersey were given public exhibition.
The only showing of the pictures in
New York so far has been private ex'
hibitions.
