THE future possibilities of the wire
less" seems to be unlimited. The
- whole scientific world has focused
its attention upon the radio waves, and
already there is promise that the present
toys of wireless telephone and telegraph
will be the least important Of the uses to
which the wireless will be put for the con-
venience and benefit of mankind.
Perhaps there has been no more impor.
tant recent development than the assertion
by Nicola Tesla, the distinguished cleo
trician, that he is now prepared to trasmt
power by wireless Up to the present time
wireless waves have not been harnessed 10
power. The waves of ether could be agi-
tated to record sound but it has not been
possible to project an electric current by
wireless so that it would run a motor or
operate factory or heat an electric cook
stove.
II Mr.. Tesla is not mistaken in his very
definite assertions the mechanical meth
DDS Of the world are on the eve of being
considerably changed.
Mr.. Tesla declares that he is now pre-
pared to undertake the construction Of a
wireless power plant which will transmit
energy to any point of the world, however
distant with a loss not exceeding per
cent. The importance of this is at once
apparent.
Most OF our railroads haul more cars Of
coal over their rails than any other kind OF
freight, and most Of the shipping along
our coast consists OF coal barges. II enor-
nous power plants can be set up at the
mouth of the coal mines and the heat,
light and power distributed by Mr.. Tesla
through the air, what an enormous saving
OF time and expense and waste this will
be-no coal cars TO load, haul and dump,
no coal to be carted around to the various
factories along the line of the railway, no
coal to be wasted in the locomotives
which haul the coal cars and bring them
back empty to the mines!
But this is not all.
The water power which now runs to
waste in Natures waterfalls in remote
regions will become available If Mr.. Tesla
can shoot the power through the air to
distant cities from towers erected near
the falls in mountain and wilderness.
OF the personal utilitarian value OF
power transmitted by wireless, Mr.. Tesla,

HARDING SCHOOL TO
BE COMPLETED
IN MAY

The latest addition to FL Centro's
public school system, the Harding
school at the corner Of Vine and Sey
enth streets, is rapidly nearing compile.
tion, and it is expected that the con-
tractors will be, able to turn over the
new building to the school board some
time in May.
Bonds for new school were voted
two years ago and sold by the city
last year. The general construction con.
tract was given to Jarboe & Murray Of
Holtville, who also built the new East
Side school, voted for at the same
time. General construction work was
completed in February, and since that
time the subcontractors have been busy
putting In heating and lighting systems
and completing the interior work.
The new school is Of steel lath and
plaster construction, with stncco exter-
ior finish. The center of the building
is two stories in height, tile roof, with
q one story wing on either side. At
present IA classrOons will be finished
with room for four more in the upper
story of the main building which will
be completed as the needs of the school
demand. A large corridor runs the
length Of the building with seven
classrooms on either side opening onto
it.
The large and spacious rooms are
well lighted and ventilated, each hav-
ing five large windows in the outer
wall, with transoms the length of the
room opening onto the corridor. The
upper half of the rooms are finished in
beaver board, tinted cream color,
which harmonizes with the woodwork
and affords a restful background for
the children while at work.
a combination school library and
hall is made possible by folding back
the connecting doors between two
rooms, with q stage for public exer.
cises.
The building, which is entirely mod
ern throughout, was designed by Don
Wells, an adequate heating system has
been installed to make the rooms COM
Portable for the children during the
cold weather. The floors and wood.
work are of hard maple.
1t is estimated that the school will
cost approximately $4,000 when com
pleted and will provide much needed
relief for the present crowded condi.
tion Of the Wilson and Olive street
schools. This makes the second modern
school erected in Ell Centre.
