A CARD.

On last Thursday afternoon the SUI
preme sorrow of our lives came upon
our family, by the sudden taking
away of our boy by drowning, and
the subsequent anxiety and suspense
ioI day and half following the
fearful tragedy, until the recovery
of the body of the love Gaze Itom
its watery grave. Our hearts have
been wrung with sorrow, our lives
have been made sad and desolate by
reason of tins great calamity that has
overtaken our boy he was so full of
buoyancy and life, in whom our hopes
had been conferred, and who gave
every promise of successful life.
But our hopes have all been shat
tered; and today all of us father
and mother, brother, wife and little
daughter of Arthur Mize stand APP
palled, shocked and saddened by his
sudden and untimely going away.
1t is tragic to contemplate how lit
tie we really know of sympathy, love
and interest those about us entertain
toward us. Through the days of our
deep affliction there has been a con-
slant and continual manifestation of
sympathy and desire to help and to
share our sorrow with us that has
touched our hearts deeply, and will
ever remain a sacred memory to US.
We search in vain to find words
to express the emotions and graft
tude and appreciation that stir our
hearts towards all those who minis
tered in any wise to us. To that al
most numberless band of heroic men
and boys who toiled day and night,
undergoing the severest strains,
/ endangering their lives, and enduring
fearful hardships, until the recovery
! of the bodies. we can never thank
sufficiently. Especially impressed
have we been with the fact of that
universal sympathy, which manifest
ed itself in the numbers who came
from distance t2 help, from both
towns and country most of them
strangers to us, to labor unceasing-
ly and heroically toward the same end.
Their sacrifices in our behalf shall
remain a sacred memory to us
through all the years of our lives.
The finding of the two bodies and
their return to their homes brought
US fresh evidences of the desire of
one and all to share our sorrow, to
seek to assuage our grief, and give

There's the little transmitter,

pointed out Dick. The radiophone
transmitter, proper, is located in a
little room under the roof overhead.
There are a couple of operators, for
it contains all the elements of actual
transmission. When this studio is to
broadcast it is connected by this
switch over here with the radio sta
ton upstairs. Here's a wire tele-
phone to it, too"
Garrick hardly needed to be told
Garrick looked curiously at the
little hole in a cylinder dangling
from an adjustable stand in front of
him.

prefer to stand? All right. How's

Let's go!"
Ruth Walden and Vira Gerard OF
Nonowantuc, Long Island, were kid
mapped in house boat, the Sea
Vamp,' from Duck Harbor, Long
Island, tonight, about 9 o'clock"
The attendant nodded to Garrick
that in his opinion he was no novice
in handling the affair.
Slowly and distinctly Garrick
launched into a brief description of
the house boat and followed with a
detailed description of Ruth and Vira
and his own suspicion that the Sea
Vamp was now somewhere in the
Sound, probably on its way east.

they all started off toward the corn
field at once.
"There he is" cried Ben, pointing
to a silent, motionless figure in an
old, tattered coat and torn hat.

by the police-for stolen cars-miss-

enthusiasm into the crushed Dick
and with success.
