TAKING A HEAVY o l.

Many a man Wis would he appall-
ad and start II supreme battle for life,
il his doctor told him he must die
within five years of tuberculosis or
cancer, will keep right on buying aud
consuming Illicit liquor. Yet death
within five years is promised for the
majority of those who persist in drink
ing the supposedly pure bonded"
liquor with which the country is now
flooded.
Analytical chemists, and not all of
them the sleuths Of prohibition, either,
have been analyzing samples of the
alleged pure stuff now being sold all
over the country. They find it TO be
either green whiskey or gin, improperly
compounded, or old stock adulterated
and tempered with to increase the
quantity. Almost without exception
the resultant beverages are found to
contain chemical elements which have
the pleasant faculty of driving the
oxygen from the blood as surely, if II
little more slowly, than su%ffocation.
Five years Of this process, say the
chemists, and then the graveyard.
The persistent patron of the boot
logger who thinks he is smarter than
the government, may be right i'll that
he is not apprehended in his law-break-
ing. But he isn't any smarter than the
Grim Reaper. for the stuff he prides
himself on getting away with is grad
ually getting away with him.-Aber-

JAZZ.

w. l.. Mayer, vice president of the
American Federation of Musicians, in
an article appearing in IA recent issue
of n of the prominent musical maya
zines, devotes several paragraphs to a
dissertation on jazz music and jazz
players, finding fault especially with
the musicians themselves who go so
far as to conduct themselves like a
bunch of intoxicated clowns and "as

keeper of n sanitarium for the feeble

recommended that stations of only
moderate power be uSsd, spaced mt dis
tances of not more than 1000 nautical
miles, the intermediate stations acting
as relays for the more distant.
There have been heated discussions
In England regarding the relative
merits Of the ~high-power, long-distance
transmission systems In comparison
with the moderate power, intermediate
relay systems. There can be NO doubt
that the system Of intermediate sta
tons Will give by far the most reliable
communication, largely on account of
the small variability Of signal intensity
at shorter distances And probably
for government purposes, where re-
liability Is of more Importance than
volume of traffic carried, the system
Is superior.
'The plans of France for extremely
long distance communication are cen
tered around the huge transmitting sta
ton now being completed Mt ste.
Assise, between Fontainbleau and
Paris. This station Is expected by its
promoters to communicate with Sal
gon, Indo-C China, $500 nautical miles ;

stations Of the Radio Corporation of
America will be completed this year
at Bogota Bay, Colombia, and In Cuba,
and the great Buenos Aires station
will be In operation In mid-1923, says
e. j. Nally, president Of the company,
who returned a few days ago from
conferences In Europe Mt which q
working agreement was reached among
the great wireless companies Of Eng
land, France, Germany and America.
From any part Of the United States
wireless messages may be relayed
speedily to Buenos Aires, South Africa,
Java, Calcutta or Melbourne. when the
radio building programs Of the great
American and European countries are
completed. At present France has the
most powerful station in the world In
the A~merican-built Lafayette towers
near Bordeaux, but this will be super
seeded by the end Of this year by the
Port Jefferson station Of the Radio
corporation, which will be the most
powerful station in the world. The
station under construction ut Ste.
Assise, near Paris, will be second.
The British wireless chain connect
ing England with the empire will have
n station comparatively close to
Argentina, and that will be the sta
ton at Bathurst, in Gambia, on the
extreme western point Of Africa,
where the continents Of Africa and
South America maize their closest ap-
proach.
