Brosdcastfng programmes can be successfully supplied to all
tenants IN a large apartment house by using one control room, 1t is
demonstrated by Charles v. Palermo, who is now using the system In G

Restoration Camp

Camp American Legion" new res
toration camp for veterans established
through the instrumentality of the Lee
gion department of Wisconsin, was
dedicated at Tomahawk lake recently
before an audience Of 1900 persons.
"Since the close of the war;" said a
Legion official. hundreds Of men have
been discharged from hospitals with
the advice from the staff physicians to
get out into the open. The advice was
not taken because the average former
service man has no money to spend
upon a vacation. AS a result they went
back to their old jobs and within a
matter OF months were back at the
hospital with broken health again.
This big summer camp at Tomahawk
lake will provide the needed environ
ment for large number of convalescent
veterans"

successfully through a revival service
without consulting him, and there was
never a political scheme in the county
carried through without his being on
the inside.
He was a good story teller-direct,
humorous, individual. I've seen a
crowd about him of ten at a village
street corner or when the men were
resting at noon in harvest time, every
ear strained to catch his words. and
every man shouting with laughter at
his tales.
He knew everyone within twenty
miles. any everyone whom he knew
had a good word for him. Children
told him their troubles, mothers named
their babies for him, men out Of luck
and out of work came to him for help,
and young boys asked his advice and
took it. No one was too low or too
Insignificant for his consideration. No
help that he ever gave was offered
with the idea of reward, yet he was
seldom left out of any social gather
ing in the town or the community. He
said himself once that he thought he
had ridden more miles in a motor car
than anyone living who did not him
self own a car or drive one.
If anyone was sick he sent for John.
If nyone was in trouble 1t vas John
to whom he came for advice-yOung
girls and old women, wild boys and
shrewd men. the child and the gray
beard found in him an unselfish friend
and a helpful adviser. No n ever
heard . him complain or grumble or
find fault at his humble lot.
When he died the village was crowd
ed with those who came to look on
his kindly face and to follow him to
his last resting place. They were the
children with whom he had played
and with whom he had walked hand
in hand through the streets they were
the women whom he had helped and
the men by whom he had sat when
they we're wracked with pain; they
were the friends he had made through
his daily ministrations Of toll and help
fulness.
There was no sermon; there was no
need of one. John had nev belonged
to the church. Only the minister
prayed and read:
Come. We blessed Of my Father, in
herit the Kingdom prepared for yon
from the foundation Of the world: for

JOHN
By THOMAS ARKLE LARK

by bnOmAS n OGAhN
VKTHEN l count up the everyday
Wv heroes whom I have known
those simple unselfish souls who meet
the sorrows and the sacrifices of a
life of toll uncomplainingly and we'll
/ always think of John.
His was, indeed, a very unheroic fig
ure. He was round shouldered and
thin, almost to emaciation, and his ILL
fitting, ill-kept clothes hung loosely on
him and served to accentuate his phys
ical defects.
Heehad v had any real home so
far as / know. He had boarded for
thirty years with Mrs. Baynes, a
worthy woman who did the village
dressmaking and thereby supported an
incapable husband. John had taken
care of her little garden, had looked
after the few chores about he place,
had kept the premises and the house
In repair. He seemed more a guest
than otherwise, though he occupied a
bare little room at the back of the
house and paid his modest weekly
board bill with regularity.
He did not always follow a regular
business. In early life he had been a
farmland; later he ~apprenticed him
self to a barber. and in recent years
he had kept an untidy barber shop at
the edge Of town, but trade was pretty
slack excepting Saturdays. Frugal
wives peal him out Of his earnings by
trimming the hair Of their husbands
and children; the work was sometimes,
crudely done, but a penny saved Is two
pence earned, and there was no evil
dence of an inflated currency In the
village. He could adapt himself to va
rious sorts Of work. He was a host
in himself at the time Of spring house
cleaning, welding the paint brush skill
fully within and without the house,
putting on wall paper, and acting as
general carpenter and repair man.
Sometimes in the summer, utilizing his
early training, he went out into the
farming district and lent his hand at
haying and grain harvest and thresh-
ing.
He was full Of sympathy, and ready
70 sacrifice his W desires and inter
ests for the good Of others. He had
a ready wit, a keen insight into the
characters Of men. a strangely simple
accurate judgment. He had no knowl-
edge of literature, he was not much
given to religion. he was quite ignor-
ami OF political science, and yet the VII
lage teacher always dropped in to see
John when he struck a hard snag; the
minister would never have got quite

Origin of Wheat

The wheat plant nowhere is found
growing in a wild condition. Investi-
gators have been obliged to fall back
on pathological data, such as the
names of wheat in the Oldest known
languages, and the writings of ancient
historians. These point to Mesopota-
mia as the original home of wheat.
From there its cultivation spread from
China on the east to the Canaries ON
the west. In the western hemisphere
wheat was not known until the Six
teenth century. A negro slave be-
longing to Cortes is said to have
brought the first seed to North Ameri-
ca and the first grown in South Ameri-
ca was introduced by a Flemish monk.

Mining Men in Alaska
Make Use of AirpLone

1t is becoming a common occurrence
for mining men to use the airplane for
trips between mining camps In the in
terror of Alaska and also in north
western Canada. Norman L. Wimmler,
placer mining engineer of the United
States bureau Of mines, recently flew
from Fairbanks, Alaska, to Eagle, an
airline distance of about two hundred
miles, in less than three hours. says
Compressed Air Magazine.
Two modern airships now make reg
ular trips out of Fairbanks-thus
bringing that center within a few
hours travel of Tolovana, Kantishna,
Salaha, Circle City and other mining
districts on the Yukon.

Zen Has Rooster PIunaes

Or. Harry Beal Torrey, lecturing at
the summer classes of the University
of California, told the students that
he had been able to grow rooster
feathers on a hen and clothe a rooster
in feminine gart. The change was
brought about by. administering cap
suIes containing thyroxin, he ex-
planned. Doctor Torrey has devoted
some years to the study Of the thyroid
and pituitary glands and by controlling
the effects sof the glands he has been
able to change the pigment of the
feathers, and by injecting hormones
into the blood could make a chickens

F. BARTON IS
NATIONAL

James F. Barton, formerly assistant
national adjutant of the American
Legion and prior to that for several
years adjutant of the Iowa depart
ment, is now national adjutant. He
succeeded Russell Creviston of In
diana, who retired at the end Of July
after a connection of six years with
the national organization to become
field director for the War Mothers
Memorial association at Washington.
The new adjutant has been active in
the Legion ever since its formation.
He was chosen commander of Fort
Dodge post 40, Fort Dodge, Iowa, be-
Minneapolis in 1919. He became adju-
tant of the Iowa department in the
fall of 1920. Prominent members Of
the Legion in Iowa say that a large
part of the credit for making and
keeping the Iowa department n of
the best in the Legion belongs to jim
Barton.
Ten days after war was declared in
1917, Barton entered the service. In a
month he was promoted to captain. He
saw service overseas for IA months.
He was discharged at Camp Dodge,
Iowa, August 8, 1919. He was a star
athlete at the University of Iowa,
where he captained the basketball
team in his senior year. He took a
law course there.
Mr.. Creviston, Immediately follow
ing his REIMBURSEMENT of the duties OF
national adjutant, went to Rome,
Italy, as secretary of the American
Legion delegation to the Rome con-
gress of Fidac. For that purpose he
was granted a special leave of alb
sence from his work as field director
with the War Mothers Memorial asso-
citation, which is seeking to erect a
great memorial in honor Of the moth
ers of the men and women who served
in all the wars in which the country
has taken part.
Resolutions Of appreciation of Mr..
Creviston's services with the Legion,
together with a watch and a past ma
tional adjutant's badge as tokens of
personal esteem, were presented to
him on. behalf of the national execu-
tive committee. The resolutions, drawn
by a committee composed of Past Ma
tional Commander Henry D. Lindsey,
Past National Commander Hanford
MacNider and Donald Strachan, recit-
ed Mr.. Creyiston's long and able serv-
ices to the national organization and
the vision and understanding which he
brought to his duties.
Mr.. Creviston, whose home is at
Marion, Ind, helped to plan the
first national convention Of the Legion
at Minneapolis. He became assistant
national adjutant in 1920 and was pro-
NOTED to the national adiutancy in
February, 1924, following the resigna-
ton of Lemuel Bolles. He is a gradu'
ate of Indiana university.
