DO ANIMALS DIE
AND GO TO HEAVEN?

Editors Note: Judge McWorter
was asked by friend If he believed
that immortal life belonged to man
alone. This is his answer:
''Why should the spirit of mortal
be proud?" Why should man be SO
vain as to hink that he alone, out OF
all the myriads of created forms of
life, endowed with the attributes Of
Immortality? He alone, we are told
in noly Writ, grieved his Maker and
caused him to regret that he had
created man at all
Why deny to other forms OF life
the immortality we claim for our
own? Why assume that in us alone
the Creator planted those virtues
which are worthy Of perpetual ex-
istence?

1t is an altogether mistaken
theory that transportation in the
United States is dependent upon the
continued work of men at present
employed. While it is true that
transportation would be greatly in
convenienced and delayed by the
sudden quitting Of the present loco
motive operators, it would be far
from impossible to secure men in
their places.
Experience in the past when rail-
road operators have gone out, has
demonstrated that it is practicable
to fill their places with men who can
give satisfactory service. Every sta
tionary engineer whether operating
an engine in a factory, a saw mill, or
logging camp, on construction
job, or elsewhere, has had training
which gives him a thoro understand
ing of the mechanism of steam
engine, and the operation of loco
motive requires only such additional
training as the ordinary man can
secure in less than week. More
over, since automobile traffic has be-
come so general, men who operate
trucks or even passenger automo-
biles have such general under
standing of mechanics as will enable
them, with very brief instruction, to
acquire facility in the operation of a
railroad locomotive.
Keeping these facts in mind the
people of the country need have nc
great fear of the consequences OF
any threatened walk-out of the rail.
way train men. Such walk-out
would necessitate discontinuance oil
some trains temporarily. Passenger
traffic would perhaps be limited
and some classes of freight placed
under an embargo. Delay of this
kind, however, would be but tempo
rary, and within very few weeks
at the most, the interstate com
merce of the country would be NOV
ing at it's normal rate.

YAKIMA YIELDS NOT

The temper of the people in the
face of a railroad tie-up is we'll

cial club of Yakima, Wash. The
members are practically all fruit
growers, and stand to lose heavily If
they are unable to get their produce
to market before, it spoils. They
have expressed their willingness to
lose their entire seasons crop if it
is necessary to "show that the law is

financial disaster If they are unable
to get transportation when their
crops are ready to be moved, but

with the strike. kilograms have
been sent President Harding urging
him to settle the strike 'on such a
basis as will be to the best interests
of the American people as a whole"
The organizers Of the strike
thought they could bring sufficient
pressure to bear on the American
people to force them to demand a
compliance with the strikers de-
mands. Just the opposite effect has
been produced. The greater the suf-
fering and financial loss that the
strike occasions, the stronger is the
determination to fight to finish the
men who are responsible for the
outrage. 1t is not the habit OF
Americans to yield under coercion, q

SHORT FLASHES

The first national radio COM
pass station on the Great Lakes
was recently installed. Other
stations will shortly be in serv-
ice when the graveyard" Of the
lakes will have lost its terrors.
It is claimed that John Hayes
Hammond, Jr., and DR.. 3. L.
Chaffee have invented an appli-
ance that insures secrecy in
wireless. The system is based
on principle Of producing char.
acteristic waves to which only
especially equipped receivers
are responsive.
Secretary Hoover's force of
"ether cops" may take the form
of special government detect
ing stations where aerial COM
passes could be arranged SO as
to detect the direction from
which interruptions come. BY a
series Of relays, the government
station nearest the violating
amateur could be notified and
the source of trouble stopped. J.
Now the fans in England are
having a hard time with their
air. According to a report from
England there ara only 5000
authorized amateur operators in
the United Kingdom. The Lon
don Daily Mail states that the
reason for the arts tardy
growth is the fact that "hann-
pering and senseless restric-
lions in this country prevent
wireless amateurs from getting
practice. The old fogies Of the
army and navy air forces are
afraid of the amateurs and use
their influence in having the
postoffice authorities impose i'm
possible and vexatious restric-
lions that limit the field"

USING ELECTRIC LIGHT WIRE
Experts Tell the Safe Way to Employ
This System for Radls
Receiving.

Since the announcement that the
bureau of standards of the depart
ment of commerce had perfected a
method of employing electric light
wires in place of aerials, considerable
Experimenting has been done by varl-
GUS amateurs. some Of whom have had
good luck while others succeeded
only in blowing a large number OF
fuses.
Engineers of an eastern electric light
company have offered the following
suggestions to amateurs:
Successful results have been
obtained so far only with audion DuiD
sets. Crystal sets receive the signals
Int for some reason they are very
!. weak and indistinct.
"Second-No set should be used on
this system without air or oil nlled
condensers, placed in series with either
the antenna circuit or the ground
circuit-preferably In the antenna
circuit.
@rhird-A fuse not heavier than
one.half ampere should be used IN
series and just ahead Of the antenna
connection.
"Fourth-An ordinary separate de-
tachment PLUG. e., one with two
blades connecting the two separate
halves Of the plug-is used. Only one
wire is run from this plug, the other
binding screw left undisturbed. This
single conductor wire should be long
enough to reach from handy electric
light socket to the table where the
instrument il located and should
terminate in the fuse mentioned above.
In case an externally connected con-
denser is used, the circuit should be
run from the fuse to the condenser
and from the condenser to the anten'
ma binding post Of the receiving set.
I'm sets where the condenser Is
I, huilt into the instrument the connec-
tion from the fuse Is run directly to
the antenna binding post. All other
connections should be exactly the
same as for conventional overhead
aerial receiving.
"Screw the attachment plug INTO
the electric light socket and tune as
usual. In case no signals are received
reverse the blades in the attachment
plug by simply pulling the alta nment
