UNDER THE NATIONAL 4
CAPITAL. By J. E. Jones y
Flimsy Building
Construction.
X **~x **x X X X X X X xM;


One night in January while an aud
fence was looking at the moving pic
lures in the best residence district of
Washington, the roof suddenly tumbl-
ed in and one hundred precious lives
were lost. Investigations followed to
fix the blame. AS an after-resrlt of
the tragedy seven theatres in the Ma
tional Capital have been ordered clos
ed, because the buildings are consid-
cred dangerous.
The Knickerbocker theatre was
spoken of only by its owners, who
operate many playhouses, as 'the pride
of the circuit" 1t was a beautiful
building, and the performances were
OF a high-class, appropriate in a fine
residential community. The public
never thought of the building as un-
safe, but when it became the scene
OF tragedy that shocked the nation
everyone recalled that it was only
shell" thrown up in the hurry of the
war. In that period SLAP slush" con-
struction received "slap-dash" inspec-
ton. Thousands of buildings of the
same character were built during the
war period and since. in all parts of
the country. Most of them will sur.
vIve, but some of them will likely
topple under weight of snow, or fail
to resist the pressure Of . heavy wind

RADIO STATION MAY BE
INSTALLED AT ELKO

A movement is on foot to estab-
lish radio broadcasting station in
Elko for the benefit of the people
of the county who may desire to
install receiving apparatus and en-
joy the concerts that are planned
from the county seat. No definite
word has been received as yet
whether the station will be installed,
but it would prove boon to those
in outlying sections for news and
entertainment.
Last evening Joe Gennetti held
a concert at his home and listeners
were able to pick stations both on
the coast and at Great Falls, Mon
tana. With a broadcasting station
in Elko with a radius of two hun
dred miles, people in almost the
entire state would be able to en-
joy the concerts and it would prove
wonderful advertising for the COM
munity.-Elko Free Press.

Judge Beeber, of Philadel-
phia, Urges Rotarians to
Exert Influence
REAP FRUITS OF
EVIL PROPAGANDA

That Il is the duty OF all good
American citizens to stand as unit
and combat the prevalent disrespect
OF the law in this country was as
serted before the Rotary Club today
at its weekly meeting and luncheon
in the Hotel dupont by former
Judge Dinner Beeber, banker,
lawyer and publcist, OF Philadel-
phia who was the guest Of honor and
chief speaker.
Judge Beeber asserted that II is
the duty OF a good citizen to sup
port law, even though he does not
believe in that law, until, through
force of public opinion, that law has
been repealed or amended so as to
meet with public favor.
He spoke Of the prevalent dispo-
sition to make light of violations OF
law, and called for a tightening up
Of good citizenship to combat not
only that dangerous state of the
public mind but also the crime wave
that is surging all over this country,
through a resurrection OF criminal
instinct due largely to the World
War
The speaker added that American
tolerance Of propaganda for several
decades past now is beginning to
bear its evil fruit and that It is as
tonishing that vast mass Of Amer
lean citizens looks with tolerance
today upon theft, robbery, violence
and all other forms of lawlessness,
Including violations OF the rights OF
property.
stand as a rock for the enforce
ment OF all law" Judge Beeber said
"and as Rotarians. collectively and
individually exert ourselves to pro-
duce respect for the law because II
is the law"
Judge Beeber was introduced by
Judge Morris, OF the u. 5. District
Court, he being chairman OF the en-
tertainment committee for the day.
The invocation was said by the
Rev. r. w. Trapnell. Harry J
Harlxins led the singing, William =

was not as active in protecting his
invention as he was in perfecting it,
and another individual reached the
patent Office ahead of him. The

however. and he was awarded the

ORIGIN OF THE
CABINET PHONOGRAPH

An interesting "scrap of paper"
incident came to light recently in a
decision handed down in a case tried
before the United States Court OF
Appeals az Washington. The piece
of paper in this case was torn.
soiled and much penciled dance pro-
gram such as printers carry in stock
and print to order. for social affairs,
with a tassled pencil attached. It
was Exhibit A" in a suit brought
to determine the ownership of the
patent rights on the familiar cab
met type photograph which has
superseded the upright piano in the
majority OF city homes and the par
lor organ in most country residences.
Previous to the invention of the
cabinet model the talking machine"
consisted of a box housing a motor
a turn table on top for rotating the
record and an immense horn, sus-
pended over all. for amplifying the
sound. This apparatus produced
the desired noise but the size and
shape of the horn made it cumbrous
and unsightly. Along about 1897
one John Bailey Browning. a Phil
adelphian with a knowledge of sound
idea Of putting the whole machine,
reproducing machines, conceived the
motor, record, horn and all inside
the box and illustrated his idea to a
friend by making a crude drawing
on the blank leaves of a program OF
dance, given by the State Fencibles
+ battalion, which they were attend
ing.
Later Browning made rough
but very adequate model of his ma
chine from boxes and scrap lumber.
This device was also shown in evil
dence and described in the courts
language as follows: "The inven-
ton in interference relates to a talk

parts enclosed in a cabinet. Prior
to the invention in issue. the ampli-
