Often the baby, even when at
verys young age, will attempt to get
his hand to the ear when panied by

Heat is one of the simplest and
best remedies. The child should lie
with the ear against a hot water
bag. or a warm flannel cloth. Be
careful that the heat is not enough
to burn.
If this does not help, syringe the
ear with warm water. 1t should be

SUN AND MOON GIVE
LESSON IN RADIO

New York.-This generation on Sat
urday played out it's last card from
the deck of astronomical experiments
when t concentrated every hitherto
undiscovered scientific yardstick to
measure the effects, electrical, baro-
metric, Photographic, aerial and mag
.netic of the eclipse of the sun by the
moon.
In the large pattern of history this
card, the last to be drawn for several
centuries, was a trump, notably along
the east coast.
Off the Atlantic coast, the Los An
geles scared aloft with AZ men aboard,
equipped with every invention for the
study of the heavens From Mitchell
fiefd, New York, airplanes roared up
ward above the clouds until their oc-
cupants had an unobstructd view, and
down at Dayton the intrepid Lieut..
John A. MacReady, with an aerial
photographer, Lieut.. E. c. Plant, went
up 21,500 feet to get front seat for
the show.
For something like two hours nature
furnished the laboratory and the major
equipment for some mighty interest

ture, jumping rabbits corona"

Since the birth of broadcasting
radio operators, professional and anna
teur, have known that radio reception
on long wave lengths was clearer and
more regular in the night than in the
day.
Saturday nature stepped forward
and obligingly turned off the switch

passed in front OF the sun. 1t was

learned:
The suns rays are responsible for
the reduced power of broadcasting

Or, more formally: Ionization of
the air in the daytime due to the suns
rays causes absorption of the electro
magnetic wave.
For the first time in radio history
broadcasts in daylight from America
were caught in England. Not only
that, but stations in England picked
up clear as bell tones, messages from
Melbourne, Australia and from Mosul

Intense Cold Kills
Hundreds in Mexico

Mexico City.-After six days of in
tense cold, rain and continuous storms,
the sun lifted the curtain of mist and
fog, revealing a sight not seen in the
valley of Mexico for a generation. All
the high peaks are covered with snow.
Mount Popocatepetl, which had been
stripped completely of snow by the
heat of the volcanic eruptions. is now
covered with white robe and bridge
of snow connects it with White Wom-
an peak, 20 miles away. The snow
line has crawled full mile down the
mountains.
There is intense suffering among
the Indians living in the higher alti-
tudes around the 300-mile rim of the
valley of Mexico and reports from
there tell of hundreds of deaths among
the lily clad poorer classes, among
whom no doctor lives because of the
poverty of the population. Pneumonia
has begun taking its toll.

COOLIDGE WANTS
S62,O00,O00 GUT
Urges Government Officials
to Help Keep Down
Expenditures.

Washington. The now familiar
economy theme, with plea for still
further cuts in government expendi-
lures, was the keynote of President
CooIidge's speech before the semian-
nual meeting of the business orgapiza-
ton Of the government.
The meeting, which was attended
by the heads Of all branches of the
government service which have hand
in the spending of the peoples money,
was broadcast by radio, the first time
one of the governments business meet
ings has been sent on the air. The
President said
Presidents Address.
so far as it is within my power
propose to continue my efforts for
economy in federal expenditures. What
we have done must be considered only
the beginning"
He pointed out that expenditures Of
the fiscal years 1921 reached $685..
100000, while those for the present
year will probably be kept within 49,
534,00O,000 a reduction of $1,000. 00O,-
600 in four years.
The President asked officials to keep
the government costs for the present
year within the billion dollar
limit. On the basis of present estt-
mates, this will require a cut of about
$62,O00,000 by the end Of June.
Results Answer Critics.
During the same four years he con-
tinued, there has been a reduction in
the public debt of approximately 49,
l9S.OOOOOO. This has resulted in a re-
duction of the annual interest on the
debt from S999,0OO00O to 1865, 900 900,
a saving of $134,00O000 each year
Tax reductions therefore have
amounted to about 100000, 900
yearly, according to the President.
If the practice Of economy is not
popular, the results of it are viewed
with tremendous satisfaction" he said.
Let those who are inclined TO scott
at it, those who are inclined to refer
to ii as cheese pairing, look at the
results it has accomplished. They will
find there an answer which is complete
and overwhelming.
AS the country grows, an honest,
reasonable increase in the cost of gov
eminent is expected. That increase,
however, must not be timed to keep
step, dollar for dollar, with the in
crease in revenue"
The President said that if the budget
program was upheld by congress in
this session, he would be able to rec
ommend further tax cuts in the next
budget.
In order TO carry out this project, he
asked the officials TO keep the govern
ment costs for the present year within
the three-billion-dOlla limit.
For 1926 he prophesied surplus Of
more than $373,OOO,OOO, adding that
any increase in receipts or decrease in
expenditures would swell this surplus
for the benefit of the taxpayer
AS part of the economy program
President Coolidge recommended a cut
in the governments payroll, and the
elimination of unnecessary employees.
Brig Gen. Herbert NJ Lord, director
of the budget, also addressed the
meeting.
