Shortest Electric Wave
Is Only Ten Meters Long

| Complete electric waves only ten me
ters long, believed to be among the
shortest ever produced, have been de.
veloped by an electric oscillator In
vented by j. P. Barton, sophomore
student at the University of Minneso-
ia. The electrical engineering depart
ment is beginning experiments to de-
termine whether this current is prac-
tlcable in radio communication.
The waves compare with ordinary
lengths of from 100 to 24,OO0 meters
used in radio communication, while
wave lengths in power transmission
are frequently several thousand miles
long.
One advantage of the short waves
Is that they can be used more effec-
lively In classroom demonstration
than longer ones can.
Ihe Burton oscillator generates pro-
nounced standing" current so that at
one point on a wire several amperes
are measured, while a few feet awav
no current Is perceptible. Another of
Its freaks is that short circuits ON the
wire do not seem to affect it.
Waves from the new oscillator have
the unusually high frequency of 30
1OoOOO cycles per second.

Failure to Vote Harmful

One OF the recognized difficulties in
this country is to get all the good"
citizens 10 90 to the polls. II has been
established that very large numbers
OF potential voters fail In each election
TO go 20 the polls
Doctor Tigert. In his address before
the American National council In New
York made the following significant
statement in this connection: Il doubt
II weak or undesirable public official
has ever been elected by larger ma
Jority than the number OF good clti-
zers who failed to vote IN the election.
agree with the statement | heard a
public speaker make the other day.
when he said that he had ten times
as much respect for the man who voted
ten times as he did for the man who
did not vote at ALL"
Instances were cited by Doctor
Mann where grating politicians were
able to continue In power because
only 81 per cent of the voters turned
out 10 take part in an election. These
same grating politicians we're cast
out, he said, when only S5 per cent OF
The voters went to the polls after CON
ditlons had become such that they
were goaded into fulfilling their duty
as citizens.

Fan Helps Burn Coal

Fuel experts for several years past
have been preaching the use Of smaller
sizes Of anthracite coal such as pea
and buckwheat. for household use.
They state that these sizes OF coal
have nearly the same amount OF heat
producing units per ton as the larger
sizes and point out that they are ma
terially lower 10 price Some people
find that the smaller coal burns ad-
mirably IN their furnaces except on
occasional heavy damp days. Then. a
furnace stocked with small-sized coal
simply VIII not burn brightly enough
TO produce the desired heat on such
days an electric fan win come to the
rescue. Open the ash-pit door, set The
electric fan directly IN front OF H.
Then connect II 20 one Of the con
Fenlence outlets In the cellar and turn
on the fan With the added draft pro
vided by the fan the small-slzed coal
VIII burn just as II the weather con.
ditions were normal.

governmen1 Mr.. Ferguson is on g
short vacation.
Civic affairs have been freed OF
political chains and men who have
been successful In business are OF the
helm Mr, Ferguson declared.
The nucleus OF the government is
W. r. Hopkins. city manager, and five
department directors besides Mr.. Fer
guson.
Ar. Ferguson, who is an architect
and engineer never has been In poll
ties, and Mr.. Hopkins forgot big COM
merciai ventures when the council Sc
lected him for the clty's head.
The council also elected a mayor
He receives $500 year the manager
$4,000 and the department heads
$500. Cleveland is the largest city
with city manager government. Mr..
Ferguson said
MIR. Hopkins and his directors have
obtained the cooperation Of the coun-
ell u tweniy-six elected members and /
Of the people because we are not in
teresged in politics" Mr.. Ferguson said.
-Ciiy officials are giving Cleveland
more service because they choose
workers according to ability rather
than political qualifications OF course,
you can't cut out politics entirely in
a city whore IL has relgned for years"
Mr.. Ferguson told Of Cleveland's gar
5age reducing plant, where $50 tons
we're being handled a day at no loss.
The process Is one Of reduction to

~WARY GRAHAM BONNER

; 1t was all very well for people to
talk of happiness, but they did not
know as much about 1t as Mother
Coyote.
In the first place there was her mate
He was so devoted He stood guard
outside the den-far enough from ii so
that he could mislead those who want
ed TO find out where it was.
He could get food for his family and
he was SO unselaSh. No matter how
tired he was he was always ready to
help Mother Coyote and the babies
Even when he had hurt himself at
one time he did not think about that
but only Of now he could keep the
little ones safe, and so keep Mother
Coyote from worrying and fretting
herself and making her dear little
coyote self unhappy. as she would
have done had harm befallen them.
Once they had had to move. It was
al very well to love the old home den.
They did not want TO move.
They hated leaving the dear, famil- !
lar sights which they had grown to
love.
They, too. loved their home. They
did not want another
They were not restless, nor anxious
to move. II was a nuisance-espe-
eially when they had been so contented
in the old home
They were not anxious for change
OF view or anything of that sort.
They did not want a bigger place
they did not dream Of great palace
home
But they had had to move, as their !
home had been Observation-Disclosures :
