Horse A Practical Joker

Have horses sense of humor? "A
South American doctor has one which

A few minutes later the bell rang
violently. The al looked out,

bell rang. At the third ring the
doctor concealed himself behind z 4

the bell-rope.
Then, to his astonishment, he saw
his horse lift up his head. seize the
rope between its teeth and give it a
violent pull. After, that the doctor

THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER AND THE MODERN HOUSEWIFE
CONCRETE TOWERS
TO FIGHT U-BOATS

LONDON.-Mystery surrounding
the huge concrete towers built by
the admiralty just before the ar
mistice was cleared UP when Lieu
tenant Commander Kenworthy, dur
ing debate at the commons, ex-
planned that they were new anti-sub-
marine weapons.
Towards the end Of the war the
admiralty completed two tremendous
concrete structures, much like dis
proportionate pill-boxes, weighing
thousands of tons, at channel ports.
Ten other towers were under con-
struction when the armistice was
signed. Work was slowed on them.
but finishing touches were put upon
the completed towers.
When the excitement Of the war
had died down, the government was
frequently questioned as to the pro-
posed use Of the towers. 1t was evil
dent that they were to be sunk on
the bottom of rivers or in shoals at
sea.
The government consistently re-
fused to say what they were for.
even after one Of them had been i'm
provised as a lighthouse and the
other, at Shoreham, Sussex, after
attracting thousands of visitors, re-
manned in the harbor unoccupied.
During a debate on admiralty ap-
propriations in commons, Lieutenant
Commander Kenworthy urged that
the remaining tower be lowed to sea
and sunk. Incidentally, he explained
their use.
During the submarine campaign.
it was vitality necessary to keep open
the Straits of Dover, the main chan.
mel for troops and munitions from
England to France. The admiralty
invented the towers to combat the
submarines. They were to be towed
| to sandbanks along the straits and
sunk. They would have been occu'
pied by the anti-submarine crews,
where, reinforced by steel, they
would have become island forts.
The towers, the admiralty thought
| would provide much more efficient
| weapons than patrol boats, which
were forced to seek shelter during
rough weather. On the towers
would have been mounted search
lights and guns, which would have
swept the channel for miles around
In addition, there would have been
apparatus for the detection of sub
merged submarines by sound, and
| there would have been keys" for ex
| ploding minefields through which
| the passage of submarines was sus
| pected or established.

Food Riots Expected
By Authorities in
Vienna, Austria

VIENNA, Observation-Disclosures Is ex-

LACED to follow the recent demon
strations. Following the recent ex-
change panic during which the
crown dropped to nearly 10000 to
the dollar the price Of bread has
risen from 1900 crowns to more
than 1000 crowns. This has driven
the people to desperation. Angry
crowds are gathering and violence
is expected.
The shopkeepers are preparing for
a siege and the government has is.
sued a decree forbidding trading in
foreign monies. This has caused a
small panic among foreigners here.
They cannot pay their board bills or
buy tickets to leave Vienna. The
hotel Hobbies are crowded with Cor
eigners, among them many ,Ameri-
cans, all discussing the possibility
of riot and all wondering where
they can obtain enough crowns with
which to buy food.
The police are out in force and
are said to be determined not to per-
nit recurrence of the events of
last winter. The people also re-
member the disastrous effects of the
December riot upon the business of
the city and hope to avoid any repe-
tition of it.

ways pointed to the true north.
After making the rounds Of the
ship we came to the conclusion that
everything on board was run either
b. radio or electricity with the ex-
ception, possibly, of the captain,
crew and the engines. We remark
ed upon this apparently complete
installation and our host immediate
ly began telling us how a call sys-
te has been arranged in all parts
of the sh.I so that an order spoken
by the captain could be heard all
over the ship. Smiling he went
further and told us that the time
vas not far DISSENT when radio
would supply the sources Of energy
for many types of motors and it is
not outside the realm of possible
ties that it will be an accomplish
ment by the present generation.
We felt that here our interview
ended, so with one parting ques-
ton that we had kept in reserve we
stepped up to the gangWay, ready
to make a quick getaway if it was
not well received. Much to our re-
lief it only brought peal of laugh
ter from Marconi and s staff Of
engineers who had gathered around
him. In the following way he clear.

"And now you have the whole

the ever ready smile accompanied
by friendly goodbye. Thus ended
an interview with the man who
astounded the world and who in
turn has been astounded by the ac-
tivities Of the great American pub

of understanding he continued: 1.-THE
one thing most valuable to the radio
experimental is a super developed
sense INSTALLATION. Without it there
is very little hope of progress. In
all of my experiments the plan was
perfectly clear and the goal OF my
efforts had already been attained
mentally long before I started on
the actual experiments to prove the
practicability of my schemes"
At this juncture we were inter
rupted by the presence Of his secre-
tary, Mr.. Margini, who had just
come up to announce the arrival OF
my photographer on board.
This interruption brought me back
with a sudden start to a realiza-
ton of the work on hand, which was
Immediately sensed by my host, who
suggested that we visit the radio
room on the deck below.
AS he swung open the door to the
wireless cabin, which is located on
the forward part Of the main deck

appointed dining saloon, we got our

his various instruments and he re-

This brought up the subject of his
experiments in directing wireless
waves in any desired direction, which
seemed to touch just the right spot.
His whole countenance lighted up as
| he delved into the working of this
experiment with it's so-called radio
deflectors.
"Thaeresults," he said, obtained
by reflectors appeared to be so good
that I attempted to try out my old

ships near dangerous points. This

We next turn our attention to the
big loop aerial which occupies the
center Of the cabin. The loop con-
tains some 100 odd turns Of wire,
and has through a series of taps a
range of from fifty metres to lone
$4,000 meters. The loop has been
the centre of many recent expert
ments, and works in conjunction
with the instruments which can be
seen in the foreground on the right
hand side of the picture. This in
strument is one of his own design
ing and is known as the Marconi di-
rection finder. On the far side of
the cabin, on the port side Of the
ship, can be seen one of the most
complete and powerful continuous
wave transmitting sets that has ev-
er been installed on board a ship.

Marconi's Own Conner
Going the rounds Of the cabin
Marconi enthused as he passed from
one piece Of apparatus to another,
touching them with the fondness Of
a man who loves every wire of their
weird construction. Passing on
around the cabin he finally brought
up in his own corner, where on q
desk lay intermingled with little
pieces Of strange apparatus, forElu-
las and scraps Of torn paper, some
embryo invention that will add TO
the already long list of honors which
have marked every step of his dis
tinctive career. Good humoredly he
posed for many pictures m this
studio, which any enthusiastic raGio
'Ham" would gladly give ten years
tanned over this route. g
While we were attentively listen
ing to the description Of a small
audio tube which Marconi had pick
ed up, the party was joined by a
youthful looking man, who seemed
to enjoy every word shat was spoken
by the master radio experimenter.
After an exchange Of compliments
