WIRELESS CONCERTS GIVEN
BY BOYS CLUB MEMBERS

A wireless concert was given not
long ago by members of the Ocean
County Wireless club for the enter
tainment of the Farm Bureau, at
Toms River, N. j. This club which
was organized by the county club
agent had succeeded In getting a
central receiving station installed in
the courthouse. The program, which
was heard by the entire audience by
means of an amplifier, came from
Newark, N. ]. 1t consisted of oper-
attic solos, orchestral selections, a
speech, and the market report for
the day. At 10 p. m, the audience
set their watches by standard radio
time given out officially from Airing
ton, Va, near Washington, D. c.
This central receiving station is
one of the achievements the boys
in the wireless club have been work
ing toward for some months. The
club was organized shortly after the
United States department Of agricul-
ture began sending out market re-
ports by wireless. Under the general
supervision of the county club agent
it has developed to membership of
SO boys in all stages Of wireless
knowledge and equipment. Their
original intention was merely to
broadcast market reports. but 1t soon
became evident that central sta
tiOn was needed that would take
high wave messages which could be
relayed at a lower wave length to
those having small sets.
As the club acquired better appar-
atus It was able to expand its activi-
ties, and since the initial concert the
boys have taken a complete wireless
equipment about the county to DIFF
ferent community meetings and Civ
ing as many people as possible the
thrill OF hearing music that Is being
played miles away end the satisfac-
tion Of receiving authoritative mar
ket information Of value in the farm
ing business.

ELK HORN GUN STORE
ENTERED BY ROBBERS

The Elk Horn gun store on Oak
street near Main, owned and operat-
ed by Robert Middleton, was burglar
lied early this morning by some un-
known parties.
Mr.. Middleton locked the store
and went home at about 1915
a. m, and was not aware that the
store had been robbed until he came
to open up this morning, when he
found the glass in the front door
broken near the night lock The
thief or thieves had reached In
through the broken glass and un-
locked the door, entering that way.
Apparently 1t was some one famil-
lar with the place who knew where
the various articles were located, for
they took three revolvers that could
be carried in the pocket and left sew
eral much better guns that were too
large to carry except In a holster,
The guns taken were one rs call
Der automatic Colts, one .32 caliber
automatic Colts, and one 1920
Smith and Weston. Ammunition for
the two automatics was taken, but
a box of ,3S long cartridges was taxi
EN-, probably by mistake, for the 30
20 gun.
Besides the guns, one or two pock-
ct knives were taken. and probably
some other small trinkets which
have not yet been missed. The cash
register with about $12 in 1t, was
left untouched.
Police are investigating the case
and hope to be able to locate the
guilty parties.

VETERANS BUREAU
OFFICES TO HAVE
DISPENSARIES

One hundred and forty dispen-
saries will be established by the
United States Veterans bureau In
the various district and sub-dlstrlct
offices, II the recommendation of
the bureau are accepted. These dis
pensaries will be equipped with dem
tai. physiotherapy, X-ray, examining
room. laboratory and pharmacy fac
ilities. This recommendation has
been long contemplated as the dis
pensarles are necessary adjunct OF
these offices Of the veterans bu-
reau. The present personnel of
these offices will be utilized as far
as possible, and 1t Is expected that
In many instances no additional per-
sonnel will be required to operate
these dspensarles. In many in
stances also no additional space Will
be required inasmuch as the present
property now being used by the Of
flces of the veterans bureau through
out the country will be taken advan-
tage of.
The establishment OF these dispen-
sarles with their dental equipment
will to great extent dispense with
the services Of private dentists who
have hitherto treated the claimants.
Previously practically all the X-ray
laboratory and pharmacy services Of
fered to the disabled veterans has
been supplied by private institutions,
With the laboratories owned and op-
Grated by the government 1t is ex-
pected that q considerable economy
will be effected.

Breaks Cafe Front

Rev. w. Judson Oldfield had the
misfortune to have his car try to en-
ter the Tavern cafe via one of the
large plate glass windows at the
front of the Tavern Monday after
noon at about 3 o'clock.
Rev. Oldfield had driven up in
front of the restaurant and had shut
off the engine without throwing 1t
out of gear. and had left the spark
on. When he got out of the car, he
spoke to F. +. French, who happen
ed to be there, and the conversation
led to the discussion Of the Chevro-
let car which Rev. Oldfield had just
gotten out of. The clutch of the car
seemed to always take hold with a
jerk, Rev. Oldfleld told Mr.. French,
and the two went to the car and
raised the hood and were examining
the engine, When IL was decided TO
turn the engine over slightly by the
aid OF the starter.
Rev. Oldfield went around to the
side of the car and reached over and
pressed the starter with his hand. 1t
responded at once, and being In gear,
the car started forward and did not
stop until 1t hit the window and
door, one wheel against each. How
ever, the door opened and the glass
in it was not broken.
The axle of the machine was con-
siderably bent by the impact, but no
other serious damage was done to
the car, and no person was hurt.
