lRomping Around

Radio Dial
By Listener-In

The late and absent broadcasters
threatened last night to gum up one
OF the two local programs which
win serve as demonstrations OK the
Capitol's broadcasting to the hun.
ired or more delegates assembled
here for the annual radio confer
ence.
Only the recently. installed wire
from the Radio Corporations New
York studio saved the early part
Of the program from utter shabbi-
AZ . o'clock, with Frederick VII.
liam VILE up, and the Wardman
Park Trio on deck, the program
took a turn for the better.
Here surely were two numbers
to please even the most fastldtous
among the visitors. Vile, without
doubt. can be presented by the
Voice OF the Capitol as the peer
OF the score Of persons who dis
cuss political affairs from the ma
TONS microphones,
And in the great vogue OF in
strtImentaI trios, Moe Baer and his
Wardman Park Trio can match vio-
lin, cello and plano with the best
Of them.
The recital by Evelyn Gribbon
fitted smoothly into the later pro
gram. Her voice is one OF those
which glide smoothly out onto the
air without any fuss or bother.
Miss Gribbon benefited. too, by an
excellent piano accompaniment.

inevitably supplant the present
chaotic condition, the broadcaster.;
or would.be broadcaster, with hid

do well to set about his or her

There win not be the opportunities

Now Id no time for any aspiring

The National Carbon Company

The entertainment was in the

ARTISTIC BiLLRoARDs

The methods used by billboard adj

and Increase travel hazards are Sc.
verely condemned by Franz 4. Aust,
landscape specialist of the Wisconsin,
college of agriculture.
That America has become the slave
Of the machine in promoting quantity
production al the sacrifice of quality
production. and that advertising has
led TO lower prices for the buyers and
better prices for the seller and the
workman, is Aust's contention.
Advertising has made il possible
for millions OF people in the United
States to get the best Of reading per
iodioals at less than the price of the
paper used in printing them, Aust
declared
LAS a friend of the native landscape
feel that the billboard nuisance
should be abolished. 1t is danger to
travellers, and in addition shuts off
beautiful scenic views which they
might enjoy.
.The ugly billboard Of no beauty,
the billboard that shuts off scenic Wis
tas, and demands the attention of tray
ellers, should have no place in the adj
yertising world.
But we must not overlook the bill
boards that have beauty and which
can and do fit into the environment.
Those that cover vacant lots and rub
bish piles are benefiting the commun-
ity in which they are used.

signed to assist in his financing than
has any other group. partly as result
of the natural growth of our present
financial structure and partly because
of the special agencies created by the
government during recent years The
list Of his credit sources Is a surpris
ingly large one, for he may borrow
directly from the savings banks, trust
may use the Federal Farm Loan

through state or national co-opera

access to the regular commercial
banks for short time funds; and of
course, participates as any other con.
sumner In the usual retail store credit.
Moreover, the Federal Reserve Act
has provided broad accommodation
for agriculture in it's text as originally
adopted and in the several amend

Through the courage Of heart-bro

cause Of his beautiful young daugh-
ter's suicide, is developing a nation
wide activity to discourage and stop
cigarette smoking amongst the women
and girls of the United States.
Women's Clubs everywhere are be-
F., ing enlisted to the cause which means
that the activities will be well organi-
zed nationally and therefore effective
It is pointed out that the health, vel
fare and the very strength of our ma
ton is being jeopardized by the terri
Bile habitforming indulgence Of Gig
arctic smoking by our women and
girls
The social position and prominence
Of the beautiful young woman who
took her own life during a nervous
breakdown, due, as her father says,
to "the whirl OF social life and cigar
cite smoking" resulted in the acton
now being taken.
Margaret Eliot Harding 23-year-old
daughter Of W. P. G. Harding, Cover
nor of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Boston, and former head Of the FEEDER
al Reserve System during the Wilson
administration, committed suicide in
her Boston home last week by shoot
ing. Although an attempt was made
by some newspapers to attach mys-
terry to the suicide, Mr.. Harding
came forward with a statement OF
facts, which obviously he hopes Will
serve as a warning to other, fathers
to protect their womanhood from the
danger of cigarette smoking. Mr.
Harding says:
The whirl Of social life and cigar
cite smoking finally resulted in a ner
volts breakdown, which | attribute as
the cause of Margarets death. warn
ed her repeatedly, but was unable to
change her ways She had been far
from well for seven or eight months.

The statement by Mr. Harding
brought forth quick action from an
unexpected source. 1t came in tele-
graphic report from Charleston, W
Va. from the very heart of the tohae
co-growing industry and was from
Gov. Morgan of that state.g who spoke
in no uncertain words He said
.I think Mr.. Hardings admission
over the cause of his daughters death
was very, very courageous, and
think he made it to warn others
against the terrible habit. In support
of his warning, | will say, if l could
stop cigarette smoking in West Vir-
ginia | would consider it the greatest
. thing / could do for my state.
Il think it is time the Women's
Clubs took an active part in cam
paign to stop the practice of cigar
cite smoking, and especially among
women.
You cannot legislate morals in the
people, know full well, but they can
be preached into them and that is
why L think the Women's Clubs can
render this nation great service by
taking up the fight
