Five years ago Thursday this coun- try entered the war with Germany. Mothers were crying, patriots were profiteering, bond drives, Red Cross drives, etc. were booming.

Meanwhile Martin had Joined Hilary

a hermitage, where he meditated ten
years, and finally returned to Poitiers
with Hilary. where he erected the
first monastery in Gaul and directed
It for several years. Elected Bishop
Of Tours against his will, he con-

Forcing River to Dive.

A NOVEL piece Of engineering was
\ not long ago completed in con-
nection with the building Of an avia-
ton field in England. The site Sc
lected was a pleasant piece Of coun-
tryside, consisting of q wooded park,
bisected by a little stream about
thirty feet wide and two feet deep.
This waterway is largely artificial in
character. It was constructed mainly
along a branch Of the River Colne
in 1888 and 1889, between Longford
and Hampton Court Palace, with or
namental fish and water ponds, and
it was used for this purpose until
recent years. It is eleven miles long.
The decision to convert the park
into an aerodrome made 1t necessary
to divert this river. which, being
raised above the level Of the ground
where it crosses the park, presented
an obstacle as well as a danger. Had
the river been running in q natural
bed below tho level Of the ground.
instead Of in an artificial channel
above the ground level. it could have
been merely covered over. The need
for putting it at lower level led to
the decision to carry it underground
through the aerodrome by means Of a
reinforced concrete inverted siphon,
and this plan having been approved
Of, a detailed scheme was got out.

heard in exalted moments, seemed
always as proceeding from the woods
near killala bay, where he lay hid

bound for England.
When Patrick got home safely the
overjoyed Conchessa wished to keep
him with her. The self-reliant, hard
trained hero Of twenty-one obeyed
his parents. but taking risks had be-
come natural to him, and the breach
in the wall of Severus was tempting.
Twice he was captured while ad-
venturing into Picts' country, and
twice again he escaped. His mother

Patrick who removed his mother to
the protection Of her powerful Uncle
Martin, for fifteen years past the
Bishop Of Tours?
In any case, it is plain history that
Patrick went to Tours, where he en-
braced the monastic life, and Uncle
Martin, opulent bishop OF that bril-
liant center, obeyed and venerated

wireless receivers has been SO greatly
increased in recent years that it is
possible even now to possess portable
apparatus capable of receiving sig
nails from high-powered stations
many hundreds of miles distant. but
this is quite a different matter from
transmitting signals. For wireless
transmission it is still necessary to
raise a wire a considerable height
above the transmitter, and if serious
distances have to be covered, 1t Is
also necessary to have a source OF
electrical power greater than can be
at present conveniently carried by an
Individual. How near we have ap-
preached the ideal of a portable
transmitter was demonstrated by the
Marconi company a few months ago,

seven or eight miles. In this case
the aerial wire was hung from the
branches of a small tree near the
roadside and the apparatus employed
was stored in a small space at the
back of the vehicle.
One thing is certain, the science OF
wireless telephony will not stand
still. Like the ordinary telephone,
it is passing through a period when
it lacks official encouragement and is
dependent for its salvation entirely
upon those who are engaged in its
development.
In twenty years the mysterious all
