Scores of Dogs Die in
 Epidemic of Influenza

Wooster. O., May 24-Has Reynard fallen a victim to the flu? Wayne County hunters who stalk the woods in Winter, using dogs to
 chase the foxes from their hiding
 places explain in this way the re-
 markable decrease in the number of the woods widest denizens. A scourge of epidemic closely
 resembling the flu that proved so deadly to humankind a few years ago has been killing hunting dogs in this
 part of Ohio recently. Veterinar- ians are battling the epidemic, which resembles distemper in an aggravat- ed form.
 Owners of high-p priced hunting dogs are the principal sufferers. Nu- merouS dogs in this vicinity have died Many others are i'll. Foxes were plentiful last Fall Dur 1 ing the Winter, however, when big hunts were staged. the number caught was much smaller than in former wears Dog owners who have been irving to train young hunting dogs during the past month or two declar- ed it is almost impossible to pick up a fox trail in this part of the State. which normally, shelters hundreds of foxes
 That inf1uanza has almost annihi-
 lated the fox population and has
 spread from them to the hunting dogs
 is the explanation offered by local fox
 hunters.

 New York. May 24-Electricity iss being "harnessed" to a multitude of medical science utilities designed for the proIongation of human lives.
 The applause for so many years di- rected to electrical destruction of hu- man beings and other material ob- jects now may well be turned to the accomplishments in fields Of construo- tiveness.
 Through use of an ,electron enana- tor. the invention of William H. Woodin, Jr., New York's Volunteer Hospital now is enabled to alleviate pain. The new device, in use for the first time, is being applied daily to the aches, and pains of hundreds of patients in this temple of medical science"
 Until a few years ago." explains Woodin, tthe atom was accepted as the most infinit esimal portion into which matter could be divided. either in fact Or by calculation. It repre- sents the chemists unit It was the utmost in minuteness-until the dis c.overy of the eIectron. We are told that million or more electrons may be encom passed within an atom but that they should not be considered as diyisble parts of an atom in the sense of particles of matter but rather as minute representations of electrical energy; as the tiny forces which en- ergize the atom.
 Reasoning from that hypostasis, it is not difficult to appreciate the sig uificance of that which is commonly referred to as bodily electricity Our bodies are composed of innumeraole atoms, the areas of which are strong or feeble in proportion as they are provided with the retentive of this fundamental energizing factor
 s-Our health, thought and daily varying condition of being may. by Lxeer11y analytical and retrospective mind be scheduled, classified and at tributed to certain relatively obvious factors among the notifications of living and yet the conciussops.

London. May 24-England is catching the radio craze.
 The London newspapers are now printing long columns of matter ex- tracted from the American press out lining the rapid advances which have been made in the use of the radio telephone in the United States. The British press is urging that develop ments be made along the same lines in England.
 One radio concert has been given in London in the last two months and it caused a mild sensation. but de- spite the urgings of the press the British people do not seem to be rapidly absorbing the radio enthu- siasu1 of the Americans.

seemed to be settled at the game for
the evening. Surely it would be all
right to slip away for a very little
while, Sally told herself The run to
the road house and back couldn't take
more than an hour, at this time of
night, with the roads clear. And it
was in such good cause that she was
going!
Rex met her on the veranda, and
together they went the back way to
the garage and slipped away in his
( roadster. Once out on the wide, moon
lit highway, Sally drew long breath
of relief.
The road was clear, wide, white
ribbon stretching up over the hills in
the moonlight. They flew over it, the
engine purring so softly that it's
sound was hardly noticeable. And
Sally found it easy to believe that

somehow things would be arranged so
that they must turn out right.

presently There ought to be an an
swer by the time we get back, and by
this time tomorrow we can be on our

Yes" agreed Sally. She felt sure
that Claire would never dream of re-
fusing to accept an invitation from the
Mallorys; she would consider it
feather in her social cap. Sally smil-
ed at herself then; not so very long
ago she would not have dreamt of go
ing to the home of people whom she
did not know, on so casual an invita-
ton. Now she was delighted to do so!
When they reached the Blue Kitten

lights were low, and lifting, seductive

the little dancer at the road house
whom she had promised to help.
"She doesn't really belong in such a
place, and is there only because she
is in desperate need of money, and
had no other way of earning it." she
explained. 1t seemed needless to tell
