A short time ago the Postoffice de- partment called for bids for a mail service to points in Prince William Sound and extending as far as Hin chinbrook, Middleton Island and Cape St. Elias, with Cordova as the start ing point, and supplanting the pres ent service out of Valdez. The pro- posed service, however, has been a. bandoned, according to letter from End Asst. P. M., Chase c. Grove, which reads in part as follows:
 "We have had careful inevstiga- ton made of the conditions affect ing the service. It is found that the route would be about 300 miles in length and that the increased travel would tend to impair the service had by the present patrons.

ITALIAN OPERA OF NERO
SURPASSES EXPECTATION

ny the Associated Press.
MILAN. Italy. May 2.-The produc-
tion Tuesday night at the opera OF
~Nerone.' or Nero" a posthumous
Nopera. by Arrigo Boito, surpassed the
expectations of those who for many
days had been waiting to hear this
work of the dead master.
The opera revealed a logical con-
tinuation Of Boitos characteristics
The score was refined and cleverly
combined with the striking diversity
and character OF each tableau. The
libretto was magnificent from lite
rary standpoint. while the cast of
characters was notable one.
The large audience seemed thor
oughly t. appreciate the work of the
distinguished composer, the produc-
lion IT which was considered as sur
4 passing the traditions Of even the
H renowned Scala.
Rosa Raisa. who PLAYED the role of
Astoria was in superb voice and gave
an exceptional performance Of an ex-
tremcly difficult role. both Vocally
and histrionically. Luisa Bertana as
Rubria was highly poetical vocally.

O. Aurcliano Fertile played the role
of Nero most acceptably.
Marcel Journet was powerful
Simon Magoe. while the flexible voice
OF Carlo Galeffii as Fanuel was full
nf tenderness. The bassn Ezio PionZa
had the part Of TigeIlino.
The opera was staged with excel
lent decorative effects and costumes.

when. 1t reaches that point it can
still be used in the amplifier circuit,
but it should not be used in the de-

The practice Of connecting two run
down batteries together in series is
not a good one. A rundown battery
introduces considerable resistance in
the circuit. so that no advantage is
gained in that way.
Use Full Battery.
A 45-volt battery should always be
used in toto, that is, as a 45-volt
block, without taps being taken at
the intermediate taps provided on
some of these batteries. If taps are
taken, part of the battery is run down
faster than the other part, and the
battery will have to be replaced while
some of the cells are still in good
order.
No information can be given as TO
the period of time that a battery will
last. That all depends on the type of

The G battery will last for long
time. Its useful life is practically
equal to the shelf life of the battery,
that is, the time it would last if it
was left unused on IL shelf. The rea-
son for this is that all it does is to

IDEA MAY PROVE POPULAR

Inc newest application of the dis
semlnation power of radio broadcast
ing Will be demonstrated tomorroU

ade HlnShaw, noted operatic i'm
preSairIo and singer. leads the most

voice IS broadcast from station WIZ
ot the Radio Corporati ton of Ameri-
ca in New York.
MT. Hlnshaw, who is internationally
hnoWn as former Metropolitan
opera singer, and 4 producer of
operas, delivered radio address from
VIZ two weeks ago. and at the con-
cluslon he requested his unseen audi
ence TO join with him in singing
america. The number of letters
Whlch ne received after the broadcast
ing proved that hundreds upon hun
ureds OF his listeners had joined him.
ana upon the success of that rather
impromptu experiment was born his
!uea OF national. and eventually in
t,IHdtlonal. community singing
through the agency of radio.
In MIR. Hinshaw'S own words. MY
idea is that through the radio it
would be easily possible TO have not
only the whole of the United States
sing together at one and the same
, time, but also eventually to have the
whole world sing together in some
song and create such a hymn of joy
and peace that it would produces "A
tremendous force for the good Of the
world. My idea the other night was
10 make the little experiment with
out saying anything publicly about ii
ahead of ting, in order to find out
whether the people would join with
me and WHETHER they would find that
they could sing right along with me
as they heard me through the radio.
i have convinced myself that this is
perfectly possible and that it is abb

Care of Radio Batteries.

Care of Radio Batteries.
1T is just as important to know the
capabilities and limitations of radio
batteries as it is to know those
characteristics about any of the
other equipment and instruments
used in radio receiving.
Batteries will do many things and
will stand up even under abusive
treatment. but it is well to know just
how far you can go before you take
out that last watt of energy that
spells ruin to the life of the battery
and disaster to radio enjoyment.
To begin with, it is necessary to
understand that a battery will not
last forever Storage batteries must
be recharged and cared for at fire.
QUent intervals and dry batteries
must be replaced when their useful
radio life is over.
Running Batteries.
Discharging storage batteries all
the way is positively ruinous to their
long life. If the practice is persisted
in it will not be long before IL new
battery will have to be bought. II
you use q storage battery hydrome-
ter should be a part of your equip
ment When fully charged the hy-
drometer should show a reading Of
from 1875 to 1900. . battery does
not reach it's danger point until ii
reaches reading of about l.150. For
best results in operation and economy
in battery replacement cost the bat
terry should never he discharged to
the point where its reading falls be-
low 1.200. Do not depend on the
number of hours the battery should
last. as calculated with ampere-hour
capacity Of the battery as a basis.
The hydrometer test is the best in
dication OF the condition of the bat
terry.
voltage test can also be made to
determine the condition of the bat
terry. A fully charged battery will
give a reading of about is volts
when discharged to a safe limit and
slightly over volts when completely
charged.
An ordinary pocket voltmeter can
not be used for test purposes, as 1t
is not accurate enough.
Voltage Test.
When dry cells are used y bat
teries. the voltage test is the best 10

for use. \ good volt meter should be

by, the 16-year-old son of the Rev.

Dover District of the Wilmington M.

Hospital, Wilmington, suffering from
a fracture of the skull. Gunby was
playing third base for the Wesley
Collegiate Institute team, of Dover,

mington, and had just taken his place
at bat in the fourth inning when the
first ball pitched to him by Laller, OF
the Goldey College team, hit Gunby
on the left side of his head. He fell
unconscious. Officials Of both col
leges hurried the youth in an automo-
bile to the hospital, where it was
found he had suffered a fracture OF
the skull. He had regained conscious
ness Monday. His condition contin-
ues serious, however. Gunby, who is
a student at Wesley Institute, hac
made hits the first two times he was
at bat, and had just taken his place
at the plate for the third time, wher
the accident happened.
