 10 Days Recess
 The senate oil committee took ten days recess last night after re- ceiving information which discredited two of the most sensational rumors which recently have come before it.
 The adjournment was announced after an executive session at the end of the day. It was explained that Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana, the dominant figure in the Spressing of the inquiry, found it nec6ssary to be absent from Washington for some days.

SATURDAY NIGHT BATH
STILL FLoURIsHEs

Dinner at noon has disappeared from
most homes; but the Saturday night
bath is still an institution, according
to a survey of gas and electricity COM
pany records made by the Rocky
Mountain committee on public utility
information.
In most homes, dinner now occurs in
the evening, whereas a few years ago
noon was the official time for this
meal. The charts by which gas and
electric companies record the outgo Of
their products indicate that o'clock
in the evening is the time when the
majority Of housewives utilize the
most gas and electric service. On Sun
day, however, noon is stin the most
popular time for dinner.
More gas for water heating purposes
is used between the hours of and Z
o 'clock on Saturday evenings than at
any other time of the week, leading to
the conclusion that the Saturday night
bath is still live and going concern
in great many homes.

"The Pigs in this pig pen and yard" {"
said Grandfather Porky Pig, have not
been paying me enough attention of
late.
II must speak to them about it."
So Grandfather Porky got up from
his soft bed of mud and, twisting his
little tail and looking at his splendid
fat body, he said:
"Grunt, grunt, Pinky Pig. come and
talk to your grandpa"
And to Sammy Sausage he said:
"Grunt, grunt, Sammy Sausage, come
and have words with your GRANDPA
ther."
And to Brother Bacon he said:
"Grunt, grunt, Brother Bacon, come
and chat with Grandfather Porky."
And to Master Pink Pig he said:
"Grunt, grunt come and hear what
your dear Grandfather Porky Pig, the
leader of the Pig Pen. has to say"
And to Miss Ham he said:
"Grunt, grunt, Miss Ham. Come and
hear me talk"
And to Mrs. Pink Pig he said:
Hurry along, Mrs. Pink Pig. Grunt,
grunt, hurry along"
And to Plnky Pigs mother he said:
"Grunt, grunt, waste no time in idle
ness. Porky Pig is about to give a
talk"
"If that's all you're going to give"
squealed Pinky Pigs mother, 81 don't
think I'll come"
So Pinky Pigs mother went on with
what she was doing-she was very
busy hunting for something TO eat.
But Grandfather Porky did not in
vite any one else in just that way.
"Grunt, grunt. little Black Squealer,"
he said, come to your dear old Grand
pa and maybe he'll tell you pretty
pig story"
"Grunt, grunt," he said to Sir Ben
jamin Bacon, "do come to the impor-
tant meeting I'm to hold"
And to Sir Percival Pork he said the
very same thing.
So all the Pigs were curious enough
to see what it was that Grandfather
Porky had to say to them.
"Grunt, grunt, squeal, squeal," they
all said. 1--WE are here. Now, what
is all the excitement?'
"rve been thinking for SINE time" )"
said Grandfather Porky, that none of
you pigs pay me enough attention.
"You forget that 1t always should be

He made a handsome bow before
Miss Ham.

TtlE radio Is the wonder Of the
L present. 1t has practically annlhi-
lated space. 1t has increased speak
er's audience far beyond the capacity
of any building on earth. 1t is esti-
mated that over q million American
citizens heard President Coolidge in
his address before congress last De-
cember. This was probably the largest
audience which has ever listened to
one man. Yet 1t is small compared to
what the audiences of the future may
be. In few years radios will be as
common as telephones.
But the radio has done something
else thri is greater than annihilating
distance or making all of our citizens
one vast audience.
1t has opened the ears Of the deaf.
Not all deaf persons can hear the ra-
dio, but some SO deaf that they have
not heard the human voice for years
are able to hear over the radio with
perfect ease. The New York League
for the Hard of Hearing is SO enthu-
slastic over the radio that It has
ITO SiuOioolhS Will dP
paratus carrying "a head sets. War
ren Pond, the president of the New
York league, writing in the Volta Re-
view. a magazine for the deaf says,
"When my radio was installed and,
sitting in my home, l heard clearly the
notes of song. the tears came to my
eyes. After living in silent land for
45 years, the spell was broken and
found new heaven and new EARTH"
Think what this means to the man
or woman whose ability to hear has
practically disappeared. to whom not
only the human voice but all forms of
music are forever silent. What is it
that makes 1t possible for the ear deaf
to ordinary sounds, to respond to radio
waves? Is there something about the
radio wave that Is different from the
ordinary sound wave and that pro-
duces vibration in the ear that Is
dead to ordinary sounds? We do not
know. hut we 10 know that the devel-
opment of tie radio and Its wide
spread use has brought happiness to
thousands of men and women who
have been cut off from the world of
sound for years. No one could antici-
pate that such Il miracle would take
place. The unexpected results of
science are sometimes the most mar
velous

Rice GroUcrs and Birds

Several years ago the rice growers
In California complained to the fed
eral government that wild fowl were
devastating their crops, and asked
for unrestricted shooting of birds
seen damaging the rice. Investigation
showed that the money value of the
wild birds lawfully killed FOR food
during the shooting season compared
favorably with the value of the rice
crop, without making any account of
the value Of the sport as recreation
Unrestricted shooting was. therefore,
denied, and the rice growers resorted
to other methods to scare away the
birds from their fields during the
closed season.
