Its first great impetus. His life his

tory Of radio communication.
Senatore Guglielmo Marconi. G. C.
V. o., l.. l.. d., Disc. M. I. II. f., was
born In Bologna, Italy, April Is, 1874.
His mother was Irish, while his father
was Of family whose mechanical
ability was marked. After an edu-
cation at LeghOrn and Bologna, the
young man interested himself In the
problem of wireless telegraphy, start
Ing his research In 1895. He went to
England and In 1896 took out the first
patent ever granted for practical
system Of wireless telegraphy, by the
use Of electric waves. His early ex-
PSs'sCheS III Eukiuiu were uuue NJ

Marconi saw w. H. Preece and
ut his request made some experiments
for officials Of the postoffice. Some
further experiments were made in
May. 1897, In the Bristol channel,

Down, distance Of nine miles,
On the invitation Of the Italian
government Marconi afterward went
to Spezia where land station was
erected, which was kept In constant
communication with two Italian bat

IL miles. For this Success the Ital-
ian government conferred upon Mar
conf the honor Of knighthood. After
a return to England further expert
ments were conducted and on July 20,
1897. the first radio company was
formed and two permanent stations
erected. In 1893 wireless reports of
yacht races In Kingston were made
and proved the usefulness and adapt

WILL YOUR GIRL
WE'D A FARMER.
Farming Never Offers ''Insult Of

Wants Daughter to

Wife.
(By Farm Bureau News Service)

(By Farm Bureau News Service)
The discipline of farming, and
the education it gives in the ele-
mental things of life are turning
out a race of forceful, broad.
minded self reliant men and
women. 1t is worth while.
That was what one farm
mother wrote in answer to the
question, Would You Want Your
Daughter to Marry Farmer?'
She wrote as if to her own
daughter:
Dear Mary - Your letter say
ing that there is nothing that
you want so much as chance at
farm life with David, makes us
very happy.
Lies values are not measured
by such standards as ease OF
living, fashionable clothes and
carefully tended hands. Service
makes living beautiful. There
is no reason why a farm woman
should neglect her personal ap.
Dearance. Your splendid health
and David's, with your fine ideals
for home and community life
would make you shine anywhere
Both of you love to work and
are especially adapted to country
living. Your tastes are domestic
Your love for animals and garden
ing will make you in sympathy
with David's ventures in crops
and cows. You delight to see the
sun rise!
both of you understand that
it is the discipline of the farm
the insistence of it's duties, the
certainties of IT'S penalties and
the great fact that you are work
ing with Nature in the things
that make the world go, that
make the farmer a broad self.
reliant. forceful individual
Strength is refreshed daily be-
cause he is dealing with the ele
mental facts of life.
DO not be disturbed because
you cannot start with all the
labor-savers. Things were shabby
when we began. Half the fun OF
having things is in working
intelligently for them.
