BELIEVED In SAFETY FIRST
Small Ruth Wanted to Be Quite Sure
About Her Proprietorship OF
That Apple Pie.

There was never any haste at Aunt
Dorothea's table; consequently Ruth,
the youngest of all the nieces and
nephews who gathered at Hunting
Hill in the summer, had learned what
to expect. Everything was served by
Aunt Dorothea herself, and age had
strict precedence.
There came a day, however, when
Ruth. returning to the family dining
room after a season spent in her room
with sore throat, found at her place
a little delectable apple pie, so small
that it seemed as if it must be meant
for her alone. Nevertheless, she de-
termined to be cautious.
"Am L" she looked anxiously to-
ward the head of the table, where sat
her awe-inspiring relative-"am l to

speaking range Of the fifteenth an

which closed in San Francisco yes
terday, had a radius Of 5000 miles
from the platform of the exposition
auditorium in the civic center.
This was made possible Though
the utilization of radio. Proceed
tngs of the entire gathering from
the Rockridge radio station. In
Berkeley. were broadcasted through
out the country. This station had
a range that extended as far as
Honolulu on the west. Alaska on
the north. Mexico on the south and
Ohio on the east. Under the most
favorable conditions It has also
been heard as far east as Long
Island.
As far as Is known this is the
hrst convention to date that has
utilized this most modern develop
ment of the science of communica-
tion- This Installation of numerous
microphones around the speakers
platform was In progress. A direc>
telephone sending set was used so
that the speakers voice was trans
mitted directly from the platform
to the sending station and thence
to the air without any relays.
Realtors in Toledo who found It
impossible to attend the convention
made arrangements to listen in to
the opening address of their fellow
townsmsn. Irving B. Hiett. presl-

Similar arrangements were made by
other boards who entered a repre-

this as an important innovation, as
II enabled thousands of realtors

the deliberations of the convention
to hear first hand the important

One of the biggest parties was

AMUNDSEN'S MAIL COSTS MUCH MONEY
 TO UNCLE SAM

A facetious official in Washington connected with the postoffice depart ment, has issued statement, which has been officially promulgated by the department and which reads as fol lows:
 "This is to inform Mr. Amundsen, Arctic explorer at Wainwright, Alas ka, that he had better put mail box on his igloo and do it quickly. If he does not MT. Ned Nusuninger, his postman, having heard of the no box no mail order of Assistant Postmaster General Bartlett, will breeze right by MT Amundsen's igloo some morning in his dog sled and the explorer will not have a chance to get any more mail for about two months.
 "The Postoffice Department has made it's annual authorization of emergency mail service for $50 miles from Kotzebue to Point Barrow, Alas ka. Wainwright, where Amundsen has already settled down, according to press reports, to enjoy delightful winter, is a suburb of Point Barrow, which is famous as the ultimate in postoffices. It is but a stones throw from the North Pole.
 "Mr Amundsen really ought to treat this postman well. He ought to give him whale steak for dinner and a cup of warm coffee, for it is certain ly costing the government enough to deliver mail at the door of his snow bungalow. The order states that the carrier shall transport mail not to ex- ceed 500 pounds on the northward trip and mail not to exceed 250 pounds on the return trip at $150 pound. The trip costs SIPS if full weight is car ried. That is merely the cost of the last leg of the journey of Mr. Amund- sens mail There is the expensive steamboat transport from the states, then the journey to Fairbanks by rail and another sled haul to Kotzebue by way of Nome.
 "So, MT. Amundsen, be good to your postman and mail early and often
