T1rrr's A Snng in tt1r Air

There's song in the air!
There's star in the skyi
There's mothers deep prayer,
And a baby's low cry!
And the star rains it's fire while the beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles King.
There's a tumut of joy
Der the wonderful birth,
For the Virgins sweet boy
Is the Lord of the earth.
Ay the star rains it's fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles King!
In the light of that star
Lie the ages impearled
And that song from afar
Has swept over the world.
Every hearth is afame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King.
We rejoice in the light,
And we echo the song
That comes down through the night
From the heavenly throng.
Ay we shout to the lovely evangel they bring
And we greet in his cradle Saviour and King!

VOLTA BATTERY
UNIQUE IN SHOW
So-CaIIed 'FooI-Proof' Bat
terry to Be Exhibited and
at Booth.

In Booth Is at the Radio Show
visitors will find an interesting
exhibit Of the Volta Radio Rat
terry, staged by the A. l.. Berg
man Company of Philadelphia.
The Volta has been styled the
ideal battery. 1t can be charged
anywhere without the aid of any
charging device. In addition to
being absolutely noiseless, it can
be operated under all climatic
conditions.
The Volta is a 2-volt primary
battery made in a single cell.
It can be charged by simply
pouring the liquid into the con-
tainer and within a few minutes
the battery is ready for work
This can be done at home at
nominal cost. The Volta hat
terry elements are interchangeable
and can be easily inserted and
withdrawn from the cell by the
user. 1t is considered fool proof
and no expert knowledge is re.
quired for assembly charge and
operation.

WASHINGTON, May 1-pespite
his sobriquet of Cautious Cal, :"
President Coolidge is jay-walker.
And jay-walkers, or so at least
the traffic experts tell US, are any
thing but cautious.
Anyway, just as the departments
were letting out the other evening
and sidewalks and streets were
damned with pedestrians and fliv-
verS, Cal decided to shake the kinks
out of his legs before dinned by a
brief hike.
Instead of following the side
walk, as he emerged from the east
gate of the White House grounds
on Pennsylvania avenue, to the
oross-walk where pedestrians are
supposed to cross, Cal struck
out of his legs before dinner by a
other side.
Brakes squealed and horns honk-
ed as drivers swerved or slowed up
to avoid collision. But Cal, flank
ed right and left by a service man,
held his course. At the middle Of
he street, he had to pause to let
stream of vehicles pass. At the
first opening, however, he plunged
III again and made the other curb.
Which incident may or may not
mean anything. At the time wit
messed it, however, it struck n e
that maybe Cal isn't so awfully
cauti ous after all. At least that
was one time when he certainly
took a chance"
