WORTH IF RADIO. .|S AMPLY PROVEN
Biu Shrine Parade In Wash- ington Aided By Ether
 Waves

WASHINGTON. June 16.-Radio has proven it's worth as an entertainment on q stupendous scale never before drea med.
 The thousands who went back to their homes in all parts of the coun- try from the Shrine convention here carried back new ideSs of radio ap- plication which will probably lead to wide adoption of the novel but very practical use which helped to make the convention such success as much through entertainment, as by its actual aid in handling the crowds.
 The tremendous throngs which lined Pennsylvania avenue on the day of the opening parade were en- tertained as they waited for the pro cession by program of music, car ried to every oint by hundreds of broadcaSting horns, attached to poles every few feet of the way. The music was as clear and distinct as if the instruments and singers had been right on the spot-and 1t would have taken hundreds of orchcstras and singers to reach the crowds as the radio did.
 In addition to that, the spectators were kept informed of the progress of the parade, by an announcer at the central station.
 "The parade is now at the corner of Pennsylvania and Ninth street." told those who were sitting in the stands in front Of the White House several blocks away that they had not much longer to wait.
 Police Directed.
 The radio network was also used to direct the hundreds of special po- lice officers all along the line of march, so that traffic congestion was prevented and the way kept clear for prompt movement of the parade.
 The wide disseminating system proved very useful in another way carrying President HardinE's several speeches. to thousands in all parts of the city who were una able, on account of the crowds, to find q place near enough to hear his voice. During the course of one of the speeches. an in speetion from one end of Pennsyl- vania avenue to the other revealed hundreds of people sitting comfort ably in the grandstanrs listening to the Presidents address, as his voice came through the air by radio.
 In the cool of the evenings, when there was a lull in the program of entertainment, hundreds of people gathered in the grandstands and lis by operatic stars and special orches- tras from the central station.
 By the demonstration here radio established itself as a means of en- tcrtaining a whole city full of peo- ple. as well as directing them in con- certed action for the benefit of all. Future develooments along this line will be numerous and almost reVo- lutionary.

IRISH TO CENSOR MOVIES

DUBLIN, June 16.-(By Associated Press )-The Irish government is es- tablishing q rational censorship of cinema pictures. Hitherto managers have been carving on such censor- ship as was provided in England, and many films were unCcnsoTScd, but there was no uniformity and some public complaint of the exhibition of obiectionabl films.
 The new censorship will supersede all others. Every film must be cen sored by the national censor. and the exhibition of any uncensored film will be punished by heavy penalties.

Mrs. Peary Unable
to anticipate in
Celebration.

VWYHILE elaborate preparations
" are being made to cele-
brate the fourteenth ami
versary of Admiral Robert e.
Peary's discovery of the North
Pole tomorrow, Mrs. Peary, widow
Of the great explorer, is in the
South fighting her way back to
health. An attack of grippe and
two bouts OF Influenza left her in
weakened condition, so her
physicians ordered her South, and
for several weeks she has been
established at Summerville, s. G.
She is now greatly improved, but
will not be allowed to brave the
climate of Washington until the
spring is really here.
Since Mrs. Peary,s daughter,
Mrs. Edward Stafford, has two
husky sons who take up most of
her attention and could not get
away from Washington for pro-
tracted period. Consequently Robert
Peary, jr., left Bowdoin College
his fathers college-where he is
q student, to spend the spring
months with his mother. He ex-
poets, however, to make up his
studies during the summer
months and will graduate with
his class. Mrs. Stafford made a
flying visit to her mother recently
and found her greatly improved
and well on the road to recovery.
Because, however, of the ILL.,
ness in the family. the Snow
Baby"-Mrs. Stafford, who was
Miss Marie Anighito Peary, has
always borne that soubriquet,
since she was born north Of the
Arctic Circle-there will be no
social aspects to the celebration
of this historic anniversary, as
there were last year. On that
occasion Mrs. Stafford gave a re-
ception at the Washington Club
for many Of her fathers old
friends and for the group of
scientists and explorers who were
here for the ceremonies, Mrs.
Peary receiving with her.
The memorial exercises tomor-
row are to be held at the Peary
monument in Arlington, and will
be conducted under the joint
auspices OF the Navy Department,
the National Geographic Society,
and the Robert E. Peary Ship AIT,
Veterans of Foreign Wars. Mr..
and Mrs. Stafford and Admiral
