WAR AND NAVY DEPARTMENT

Washington, Dec. ia definite re-
commentator for consolidation of
the War and Navy Departments has
been made to President Harding by
Walter F. Brown, chairman of the
commission on reorganization of the
government departments, Secretary
of War Weeks said today.
Under the Brown plan, the two de-
partments would be combined into a
department of national defense, with
one man as the secretary or head of
national defense. There would be
separate under secretaries for the
war department and the navy depart
ment.
Then the two departments of war
and navy would be stripped of their
many activities that are not essen
tial to national defense.

WIRELESS SURGERY

Strange things are done these
days through wir less telegraphy
1t is gratifying to be able to re-
cord says an editorial writer in
American Medicine New York;.
that the worlds first honors of
performing a wireless surgical
operation and curing illness by
wireless prescription go to a n
American physician, DR.. w. S.
Irwin, ship surgeon on the liner
President Adams. He tells the
story in the following para
graphs:
DIR. Twins feat Of wireless
surgery, which passed almost
unnoticed at the time, occurred
nearly e years ago, long before
broadcasting became a household
word. At the time, while sailing
in the Caribbean, DR.. Twins
ship picked up a wireless message
reporting that a seaman on a
distant vessel was in a critical
condition, his leg having been
caught in some machinery, and
asking for advice.
DR.. Irwin Immediately respond
ed with a minute message advis-
ing the amputation of the crush
member, and directing the OPP
GRAFTON in a series of detailed in
structions. The operation prov
ed a great success. During a re-
cent eastward trip of the Presi-
dent Adams a wireless message
was picked up by that liner re-
porting a sailor on another ship
far out at sea to be on the point
Of death from pneumonia. DR..
irwin Immediately got in touch
with the captain Of the ~vessle,
which proved to be the freighter
Hickman, and got a satisfactory
diagnosis. He then wirelessed a
prescription.
The task then became compli-
Gated and prolonged. DR.. Irwin
requested a report Of the COM
plete list of drugs to be found on
the freighter. The reply soon
came, and the surgeon found
that the supply was extremely
limited. However, he made the
most of the situation, as it was
to dispatch the neces-
sary indictments, and for the
next three days messages were
exchanged almost hourly be-
,Ween the two steamers.
On the third day, DR.. Twins
were rewarded with a
,heerful message stating that
he seaman was responding to
ne treatment and was gradually !
'egaining his strength. The mod !
I'm bard in quest of epic mater !
al could not find a more alluring 5
heme than this battle against :
leatl by wireless. The achieve
nent is a notable one, and it |
pens up a vista of enormous (
disabilities. !

NO SUBSTITUTE YET

Radio is about fifteen years old; the
telephone is about forty years old;
the telegraph is about sixty. All are
methods of instantaneous commune
cation, but none of them has shown
any signs of displacing Printing.
The typewriter is just fifty a
old; the m~ultigraph is much younger.
Both are methods of communication
on paper, but instead of displacing
real Printing, they have simply in
creased the demand for it.
The railroad displaced the ox-cart;
the automobile has already made a big
dent in the railroad; perhaps the fly
ing machine will do something to the
automobile. But Printing, which is
older than any of the things just men
toned, goes on better than ever because
it is fundamental to every business
and to almost every human pursuit.
Art, Science and Industry depend upon
it; Literature could not exist with
out it, and Advertising, which is the
literature of business, was created
by it.
In four and a half centuries the
methods, the technique and the lux
iliaries of Printing have been inn
proved and elaborated, but the base
of the craft-type and presses-still
hold to the original ideas, You may
look and wait, but as yet there is no
sign of a substitute for real Printing.

PRODUCTION OF ROAD MATE
RAILS INCREASE

An indication of the increased de-
mand for road building materials as
reflected in the figures for the pro-
duction of sand and gravel in the state
during 1921, which were recently re-
leased by the Department OF Con-
~servation and Development, is shown
in the figures compiled by that de-
partment in cooperation with the
U. S. Geological Survey, covering the
production of stone for the same
period. The total production OF stone
in New Jersey last year was 6S4'zo'
short tons, valued at $2,653,OSS, or
4,4S7 short tons more than was pro-
duced the preceding year. The pro-
duction of trap rock showed an IN
crease of 1920 short tons, while
the production of limestone was 49,
ITO short tons less than the year be-
fore. The former was used chieny

Philadelphia College Professor
Addresses Board OF Trade
Music, Speeches, and Matters of General Interest For The
Whole Island Discussed

Secretary Smith disclosed that the
Pennsylvania Railroad had informed
men interested in this project that the
company would electrify their road
from Philadelphia to wildwood in the
near future. With this advantage, the
support of the speed line to Whining
ton and the passage of the Road
Bond issue (the latter of which will
insure our getting the ferry line to
Lewes, Del, and good roads from all
parts of the state), Wildwood will have
better transportation facilities in
every way and the hotel is nearer to
being a certainty instead of a hope.
A letter from Secretary Dillon, of the
Wilmington Chamber of Commerce,
told of a dinner to be held in that city
on November 14th, and the secretary
stated that anyone desiring to attend
should give his or her name to him in
the next few days. He mentioned the
Pennsylvania Railroads float in the
Atlantic City pageant last September
and stated that the Board was now
planning to send the queen of the
Baby Carnival to represent wildwood
in the pageant in Atlantic City in
September, 1928. An appeal to the
members to support the Humane So
ciety Of Five Mile Beach, and an
urgent request that people who had
pledged to the advertising fund pay
their pledges, closed the secretary's
report.
Two well known personages were in
the audience as guests on Thursday
night. The first of these was Damon
G. HUMPHREYS, Mayor of Woodstown.
The second was Elmer Guy Cutshall,
an instructor in the University of
Pennsylvania, and an active figure in
the Methodist circles of Philadelphia.
Mr.. Cutshall was the speaker of the
evening and stating that he was not a
business man took for his topic "Per-
s~onality, in Religion, Business and
Life" Mr.. Cutshall gave an inter-
esting talk, to say the least, and gave
ideas and facts that were new to his
listeners.
The usual luncheon followed the
meeting.

or a Waterman's fountain pen to any,
one who found a hall for the order to
meet in. Acting Inspector Kirk was
next on the floor and he promised the
visiting members that with proper CO.
operation he felt that Wildwood AS
sembly in eve years time would
equal. if not surpass Palmyra's record.
Recorder Treen next told of the work
he had done, and referring to Mr..
Charriere's symbol of the recorder
being the hub, he promised that if this
were true at the end of his term of
office he guaranteed that he would re-
tire, knowing that he had done his
work to the best of his ability to make
the Artisans Order in Wildwood a
success.
Charles ]. Kfnsell. acting chairman
of the Entertainment Committee, was
the next speaker, and he told about
the big masque ball held in Philadel-
phia recently at which his wife repre-
sented Miss Wildwood" in the beauty
contest. MIR. Kinsell stated that he
believed the interest in the order
should come first and the social side
would follow as a sequence. Trustee
Lanning Myers gave a brief but pithy
talk of the growth of the order. COM
pairing it to the acorn that grows into
the great oak, said he believed Wild
wood would do the same. Finance
Officer Getsinger suggested that the
candidates could be brought back into
the order NV tho 1aao1 oc1o-.t1.
ing their second medical examination
charge. Chaplain Harrison told a
couple of amusing stories in which he
suggested that the real way to get the
local members working was to give
them the proper tools and (picking I'D
the knife and fork in front of him.
"Ihese are the proper TOOLS" he said.
Conductor Hoke stated that he had
been negligent in the past but prom
1sed to attend meetings in the future.
Charles Page told of the difficulties
his committee had encountered in To-
eating a hall and stated that the final
selections disclosed the third floor of
the Wildwood City Hall, or else the
rear of the office of Walter Treen. G. A.
ASOooINdm SIdIeu tndC ne believed the
big way to get the local order moving
was to set the Entertainment Com
m1ttee to work. Brothers Carter.
Baker, Pagan, McClaren, Marriott and
every member of the order present re-
sponded with a few words until the
Master Artisan again faced wildwood
Mack" CMcCracken). Mack stated that
after hearing from the members he
felt he could truthfully say, without
any Irish "blarney" that it was the best
combination of men he had ever seen
at a meeting of the order. with your
cooperation and boosting you are
going to make the local Assembly a
success, but you are going to make
Wildwood what you want it to be, and
what | now believe it to be, The best
seashore resort on the Atlantic
coast"
oyster cocktail, soup, creamed oys-
ters in patties, cold sliced ham and
chicken salad, coffee, cake and ice
cream were served. The next meet
ing will take place in the office of
Walter Treen on November 10th.

EAST FALLS PROVES EASY FOR
WILDWOOD

The East Falls Professionals proved
no match for the w. A. C. basketball
team last Saturday night when they
met in the Casino Danceland cage. In
TACT, the visitors were so easy that
Wildwood did not even get good prac-
t1ce as a result of the game. Interest
IN the game a small amongst the
spectators and cries of Send in the
second team" were heard throughout
the Warrington, who was ex-
pected down with the Professionals
could not get here and his absence
was felt by those who had come out to
welcome this former wildwood PLAYER.
The rival team, although a good fast
team and good passers, had no eye
for the basket and so. ever when
chance gave them the opportunity to
score, they failed in the attempt
Wildwood, on the other hand, were
out to pile up a big score and this
they did. Every member of the Wild
wood team scored during the evening,
and all had their scoring down well
with the exception of HUI. "Ott" was
"off his game" Saturday and with
many opportunities scored but once
Ashton the East Falls center, was the
star of the visitors, but three field
goals in the last half were all he
could manage to drop in. The pre-
liminary game was of more interest
than the big game of the evening. The
second team, strengthened by Bitters,
met a team of youngsters playing I'M
der the name of the Versailles" and
they gave the second team a hard
fight. At the end of the first half the
Versailles led with a 7-6 score. The
second team started in the second
half, however, and managed to carry
off the victory with a 31-14 tally.
The scores and lineups of both
