DR.. Wightman is now conducting
two classes in radio at the Western
State College of Colorado, (this being
the new name exchanged for the old,
Colorado State Normal School), one
class for the beginners and one for
the advanced students.
As anyone is eligible to membership
in these classes il would, we believe,
be appropriate to call this fact to the
attention of the general public. Radio
Is new means Of communication that
will necessarily call for rudimentary
knowledge of its working principles

destined to be universally used within
a very short time.
The efforts Of DR.. Wightman and
others interested in radio at the pre-

to buy and install broadcasting sta

$500.

They Grow to Weight Of twenty-five
Pounds in the Province Of

Ecuador is fast becoming a great
fruit-grOwing country, said Frank Ed

the New York Times.
"PineappleS grow to q weight Of %
pounds In the province Of EsmeraI-
das," he declared. This Is about
twice the size OF the plneapNes grown
In Hawaii and shows that we must
have very superior soil. Moreover,
there Is no place in the world that
produces such large, thin-skInned,
seedless oranges.
indications are that the province
has also a considerable wealth In oil,
There are a great number Of oil seeD-
ages which would indicate a great pro
ductiOn Of high-gravity oil. The char
acter OF this oil Is higher than the IA
nous Pennsylvania oil, and has been
produced ia Ecuador for the last 300
years, but it Is only recently that mod
ern machinery has been used for drill
ing. with excellent success. One month
ago an English company brought In a
well Of 300 barrels an hour of SO grav-
ity oil. These conditions combine to
encourage immigration, which is stead.

TIME TO VIEW WITH ALARM
Startling Exploit Of Pennsylvania Girl
Whose Fianee Was in the
Sheriffs Custody.

Had an Oppenheim, a Chambers or
a McGrath written a tale a few years
ago of a girl who forced her way into
a sheriff's home and then, single-hand-
ed, freed her fance from the nearby
jail with the aid of the keys and a re-
vOlver she obtained In her hOusebreak-
ing, readers would have been amused
at the Idea a girl could do such a
thing.
But truth continues to make fiction
look silly. And times have changed.
The Warren (Pa.) girl who did that
thing is a type that the writers Of
shockers have not caught up with as
yet. There are policewOmen and
women deputy sheTiffs tOday-also girl
bandits. Milady in her emancipated
state both enfOrceS the laws and
breaks them. No task is too much for
her.
II the facts In this caSe were as they
are told, here was love laughing at the
lOcksmiths and the sheriff and all the
embattled array Of the forces Of law
and order. That's the way the movie
scenario writer's would look at il.
Many other persons will take that In
judicial attitude toward the exploit Of
this lass, too.
But are not the ladies going a bit
too fars Nobody. not even Judges and
jurtes, have objected very strenuOusly
so far to women shooting up their hns.
bands at odd times. even to their
shooting up other peoples husbands
But If they are to be permitted to
break open the jails to get theil
chosen ones out Of durance, OF what
use win be Jails or policemen or laws

ROBBERY sCARES MIDDLETOwN
Home of J.E. Walls Entered But Were
DiscOvered.-Theft At Townsend

Home of J.E. Walls Entered But Were
DiscOvered.-Theft At Townsend
At about 12.45 o'clock Monday
morning, of last week, two thieves
forced an entrance in the rear of Mr..
]. E. Walls home on South Broad
street, Middletown, and attempted to
rob it of its valuables. They had ran
sacked, the lower floors, in the process
finding the family silverware and pill
ing it up in the dining-room, and were
mounting the main stairway when
Miss Mary Short. sister of Mrs.
Walls, noticed the light from their
fiashlight and screamed. The burg
lars evidently thought the children
alone with Miss Short, for they did
not begin their retreat until Mr.. Walls
had been awakened by his sister-in-
laws screams and answered her.
By this time, the most of the neigh
borhood was aroused and the thieves
evidently thought discretion the better
policy, so they fled, leaving the silver
ware in their haste. The glimpses
caught of the'fieeing men revealed one
of them as quite tall and the other
rather short. But neither one seemed
to be lacking in fOotwork.
They were quite bold with their at
tempted burglary though, for they had
parked their car in front of Mrs. E. D.
Hearne's home, two doors below Mr..
Walls. They had some little difficult
ty in starting but were off before any
one could interfere.
Soon after their departure the
household ventured downstairs and
discovered the work of the fleeing
burglars, but were relieved to fine
that they had left empty-handed.
The neighbors who had been arous,
ed gathered and learned the details
from Mr.. Walls. 1t was the frs
burglar scare Middletown has expert
enced for some months and the towns
people are taking more pains in lock
ing up their homes each night.
Coincident with this burglary scart
is another, executed the same morn
ing and from the viewpoint of thl
thieves successful. This robbery wa
discovered by DR.. J. D. Niles, o
Townsend, when he went to his gar
age Monday morning and found h
had been relieved of his Essex Coach
Later in the day a Dodge Coupe wa
found near Ginn's Corner deserted
with one fiat tire and no license tags
This bit of evidence fits nicely wit
some other furnished in Middletowr
At about one o'clock a Dodge Coup
was seen parked in front of Mr.;
Hearne's home with all its lights out
1t was undoubtedly the same car tina
