INCREASING NUMBER OF CARS
Legislature Finds 1t Difficult to Keep

Finding Stolen Autos.

Few public garages are complying
with the law requiring the registra-
ton of all automobiles brought in for
storage or repairs, Secretary Of State
Emmerson Ullinois) declares.
The legislature, Secretary Emmer-
son asserted, is finding difficulty In
keeping pace with conditions brought
about by the increasing number Of
automobiles and the garage registra-
ton law was passed as an intended
aid to the recovery of stolen cars.
twenty-five years ago, the secretary
pointed out, there were four automo-
biles in the United States. Today the
number is netting like 1O,5OO,OOO.

POISONED GLUE FOR BIBLES
Particular Protection Necessary for
Books Intended for Circulation in
the Gilbert Islands.

Not only must Bibles be attractively
bound and well printed, but some Of
them must be perfumed, peppered and
poisoned as well. Bibles going to the
Gilbert islands contain in the binding
glue and the paste which fasten the
cover mixture of oil of cloves, cay
enne pepper and corrosive sublimate.
This is to ward off a certain worm,
peculiar TO these islands, which de-
stroys the bindings of books. Twelve
hundred such Bibles have been sent
recently by the United States Bible So
ciety on their 15,000-mile journey to
Ocean island by way of Sydney Aus
tralia. Rev. d. Hiram Bingham, the
famous missionary translator, gave his
life to the preparation of the Bible In
the Gilbertese language.

"JUST JOFFRE"-THAT'S ALL
Evidently Great French Soldier Is
Also Gifted With a Certain
Sense of Humor.

Lord Curzon, the British foreign
secretary, arriving in Paris, found the
passenger elevator at the Quai d'Orsay
station out of order and cheerfully
adopted the suggestion of the station
master that he might use the freight
elevator. Just as the elevator boy
was slamming the gates shut, there
came rushing toward the lift thick
set, elderly man, breathing heavily.
He made as if to enter the elevator,
but the attendants waved him off.
II am just as heavy and as old as
your lone passenger" the man de-
clared, "why should you refuse to take
me up?"
Because this is Lord Curzon," re
sponded the railroad man impress
sively.
ooh, well, that's all right" replied
the stranger, making for the stairs,
I'm only Jotfre.'
He was given a lift.

SALLlES ADVICE WAS GOOD
Pekinese Dog Was Due for Rude
Awakening if He Went Too Far
With That Cat.

AS present to their first baby Map.
Henry Vaughn and Mrs. Vaughn,
who moved to New York from Spar
tanburg, S. c., were given a fancy
bred Pekinese dog. They moved out
to the country for the summer, and
sent for Sallie, the old negro cook, to
come up and look after the baby and
Ming Toy, the dog.
Ming Toy had never seen a cat be-
fore. SO, when a big tomcat came to
the back porch Ming Toy, in the
strongest bark he knew, promptly
bayed the cat, showing great bravery
for such a foolish-looking dog. Sallie
locked out the back door.
"Ming Toy she advised, "1emme

If counterpOise is not used, the
effect on the antenna resistance can

In no case will the curve showing

allow bumps in the curve to lead one

some nearby object will cause the
antenna resistance at certain wave
lengths to show fictitiously high wave

The Clock.

Boss No. told Smith never to watch
the clock. SO Smith came in half an
hour late and was fired.
Boss No. 2 told Smith that he must
watch the clock, so Smith quit prompt

Boss No. 3 left it to Smith, who
watched the clock carefully in the
morning and ignored it at night, so he
became slave"
Finally Smith chucked the clock out

TIPS TO THE RADioIsT

Radio concerts are being given
in public parks all over the
country.
An international union of radio
operators has been founded in
Brussels.
A boy in Plainfield, N. J., has
built radio set the size of a
match box.
Radio concerts are proving of
decided benefit to inmates of in
stitutions for the insane.
In Montana radio is furnishing
entertainment to the oil well
drillers during their idle hours.
The most nOrtherly wireless
station on the globe is probably
at the village of NOOrvik, just
inside the Arctic circle, with
population of 800 Eskimos.
An Oklahoma doctor who has
large number of hospital pa
tients maintains radio outfit on
his automobile so that he can be
instantly reached if needed at
the hospital.
In the case of the new receiv-
ing apparatus that goes on the
throat another slang phrase be-
comes legitimate. To say "He
got it in the neck" now means
receiving radio.
Mr.. Edison took out a radio
patent as early as 1881, but he
says it is difficult to say who
should be called the inventor of
the wireless. He thinks it has
just been "built up
Another feature Of radio has
come to light. In these days
of the dry dinner guests are
able to remain comfortably at
home and hear the after-dinner
speeches, cutting them as short
as may be desirable.
Cattle are now skinned by
electricity. New as to cattle,
perhaps, but many radio fans
have been skinned by sellers of
phony stock for some time past.
The United States naval OBJ
servatory sends time signals to
Australia by radio.
1t is now said that cOmmuni-
cation with Venus would be en-
tirely within the realm of possi-
bility were it not for the great
cost. DR.. Abbott reports that
the cost of sending radio waves
to Venus would be enormous.

it were surrounded by clouds

COLONEL GREEN A RADIO FAN
Son OF Hetty Has an Elaborate Ap-
paratus at His Home in
New Bedford.

Round Hills, the country home of
Col. Edward III. r. Green, son of the
late Hetty Green, at New Bedford,
Mass, sounds like a haunted estate
since it's owner has been bitten by the
radio bug, says the New York World.
In the sun room of the house stock
quotations, weather reports, music and
speeches flow all day from the receiv-
ing station there. In the boathouse
come the booming tones of the ampli-
fer.
That's all there is now, but Colonel
Green has not done yet. Within few
days his new six-room studio, housing
the most complete broadcasting sta.
tion in the country, will be nnished.
Colonel Green is not enjoying his
radio pleasures alone. The first try
out of his truck was made few days
ago, and 1t went rolling about the
neighborhood reeling off concerts and
talk from Newark and Schenectady
for the delighted farmers.
But the amplifier is the cOlOnel's
pet. This is just such a machine as
was used to make President Harding's
inaugural address audible to the 1885,
600 gathered about the capitol. At
Round Hills the sound win be plainly
heard over a radius of five miles.
Anybody who has a set of two
good ears has all the required receiv
ing apparatus" the colonel says. 'I'm
so interested in this thing that l
haven't time for anything else. I'm
like a child with a new toy, who can't
be induced to put it down."

A Man and a Million.

Charles Garland, a Massachusetts youth a
year ago was bequeathed 81 900 900 by the will
of a relative. Garland % years old and
had impression that money was filthy lucre
which honest people should shun. He decided
that he would continue his life as an humble
mechanic, remain in the small house which he
had, read philosophical literature, help the
people of his neighborhood with kind words
and charitable deeds, and tell the probate
court that he wouldn't accept the cash legacy.
But in the year intervening Charles Garland
has become the parent of sweet little daugh-
ter He has discovered that money isn't ever
evil or good in itself. If he doesn't care for
Iuxuries himself he would not object if his
good wife and baby daughter could have the
best things in life. He has discovered that the
poor people of his neighborhood cannot buy
coal and potatoes and meat and vegetables and
milk with good words which are given them
He realizes that he might as we'll have that
81 900 900 the state, and he has a notion
that if his chief motive in life is to be of as
much service to humanity as possible he can
accomplish much more with the fortune left
him than without it. So Garland is to accept
the legacy. A year ago Garland was man
who knew little of practical life and who could
not hitch theories up with practice He
radical SO many young men are radical with
out knowing reasons for his radicalism. He
was honest in his convictions, but had shall
lowness about his practical opinions. Today
he is a with family has learned of the
hard things of life, has worked a year as
mechanic and farm helper and knows some
thing about money, and he has discovered that
while money is often abused and misused the
fault lies not in the money, but in him who
may use it wrong.

Newberry Holds Senate Seat.

+ Truman H. NewBerry holds his seat in the
United States senate as member from Mich
{ jgan. He won by margin of only four votes,
46 members of the senate supporting the reso-
Tuition for his retention and Al opposing it-a
narrow escape for the gentleman from Mich
igan, to say the least.
The charge against Mr.. Newberry was that
money won his election in Michigan, and the
resolution by which he seated yesterday
added color to that charge by condemnatory
reference to the large expenditure in the New
berry campaign. But Mr. Newberry says he
enters his new duties with conscience clear
of any wrongdoing.
Still Al members of the United States senate
believe that Mr.. Newberry was elected by meth
DDS that should disqualify him for membership
in the senate The public is practically of one
mind the case, and that is that Mr.. New
berrys campaign was deliberately financed.
Doubtless many men have been elected to
the United States senate by the same alleged
irregular practices employed in behalf of Mr..
Newberry, but that does not remove the odium
attached to the election of the latter Laws
never will make men honest in elections.
Newberry fought for senate seat in the only
way he and his friends believed would be sue
.cessful And they won out Others will use
the same tactics that used in. behalf of
Newberry, and some of them may lose their
seats but most of them will get by just as
Newberry has got by.
= We would like to think of all elections as
honest, but they will never be wholly honest
until men can be found who will refuse to cor
ruptly money and it will be impossible to
find men who are not for sale.

The Friendly Robin.

The New York judge who fined a man $75
for killing six robins which he intended to
have served in a robin pie will receive silent
vote of thanks from innumerable city folks
and ruralists who value the robin and the laws
protecting robins There is no more neighbor-
ly bird than the robin. 1t seems to prefer to
build its nest in somebody's yard even at the
risk of seeing it's young eaten by the cat There
are few birds more ornamental than the robin
among the species that frequent parks and
lawns and gardens. A readbreasted robin on
a freshly moved lawn is thing of beauty and
a joy to persons who think of birds other
wise than as filling for meat pies. Orintholo-
gists explain the delight of robins in well
trimmed lawns. They find it easier to procure
earth worms where the gress is uniformly short
than where it is long or weedy. The click OF
the lawn mower is an invitation which the robin
accepts gladly. Neglect your lawn and your
neighbors who trim theirs have the robins as
their guests.
Pie makers and market hunters used. to kill
robins on the roost. Nowadays the law gives
the robin the protection of the courts. 1nas-
much as the courts provide that protection
they protect householders in the possession of
handsome and cherry companion.

Russia Without Courts.

1t is claimed that the most serious obstacle
to the resumption of American trade relations
with Russia is the lack OF courts IN that coun-
try. Things looking better in Russia right
along private property rights are again being
recognized and the soviet is getting down to
earth in a most encouraging way. But still
there are no courts and, until there are. the
outlook for American business in Russia will
be bad.
The American business can't do bust
ness without courts When he has court to
fall back on he will go to any quarter of the
globe and build railroad, a bridge a smoke
stack. But without a court you couldn't get
him to open d haberdashery. Let's hope Rus
STA gets some courts without delay. AS soon
as she can be sued she do business with
us. We've got the goods, we've got the price,
and our terms will be found attractive. But
without a court get to in hurry in
case we need an injunction a writ of re-
plevin we must really decline to show our line
in Russia
