Here is a tip for users OF radio: If
you want to get cheaper rates and
quick delivery, file your radiograms in

You will secure as good, If not better,
service than from regular messages
filed in the afternoon. This is be-
cause traffic piles up around or

Nova Scotia is strong for its old

lar its native sons stray from their
birthplace, they are apt to get back
eventually, sometimes frequently, to
u" scenes Of their childhood.
Halifax undoubtedly is the central
point in the province for these OBJ
serTan"es: and this year especially
the city is celebrating on an exten-
siVe scale, for it is it's 175th birthday,
For eleven days, ending August Is.
Halifax Will be celebrating, and the
events for these eleven days are
known as carnival, with land and
water attractions. and a great influx.
not only of homccomers, but visitors
from other parts of Canada and from
The United States.
Tuesday morning, August 5. a fleet
OF WarShipS including II. NJ S. Hood

Another way in which radio may
serve the public is by installing
transmitters at fire headquarters and
receivers on fire engines. trucks and
other apparatus, so that the fire chief
may keep in constant communication
with his company commanders.
Formerly firemen and mobile fire
units were obliged to leave their sta
tions with measer information as to
the fire reported, but now it is pos
sible for headquarters to keep in
touch by radio with apparatus en-
route to or at fire. Such a syst en-
provides the transmission of detailed
orders, and also for recalling ap-
paratus or redirecting it to other
places If necessary.
A practical example of what can be
done in this line of development is
seen in a recent dispatch from Aus
tria, where the fire department is
planning to use radio in place of
some 1900 kilometers of wires and
cables to insure more efficient public
service. United States Trade Com
missioner Zwickel reports that for
the past six months experiments with
radio transmitting apparatus INSTALL
ed at the main Vienna fire station and
receivers on six fire-fighting vehicles
