SUGGESTIONS IMPROVE RADIO RECEPTION

A few simple suggestions from radio engineers
as to the value of overhauling and putting in first
class shape, radio equipment for summer use
have materially aided in overcoming static
troubles. The further suggestion that radio USERS
during the summer, take advantage of programs
from broadcasting nearer home instead of trying
to get China or Timbuktu has increased the use of
radio equipment and added greatly to the pleasure
of listeners.
Announcement is now made that it is virtually
assured that the radio audience in the United
States may nightly listen to radio programs
broadcast from England, in the late fall and
winter of this year. as the result of an agreement
made between the British Broadcast Company
and the Radio Corporation of Americba This will
give further incentive to radio fans to perfect and
tune up their equipment for winter programs. In
commenting on the arrangements David Sarnoff,
of the Radio Corporation of America, says:
Il am confident of the ultimate technical sue
cess of international broadcasting and its un-
measured possibilities for public usefulness as an
instrument of international goodwill and world
peace"

is just coming into more general use and IN con-

The gas furnace controlled automatically and

an important part in miladys toilet and does work

The home with the interconnected telephone to

it is interesting to note that they contain no con-

mon laborer in the United States can enjoy today.
We have read about the Roman baths and seen
pictures of big fat Romans walking down into
them but it is pretty safe to say that they were a
chilly proposition alongside of the American
bathroom with it's instantaneous hot water heater
ready for use at any hour of the day or night. In
cidentaly the truck driver or millionaire of today
can have the same type of bathroom equipment at
a modest cost, but only Roman emperor could
enjoy the pleasure" of Roman bath.

King Snake Squeezes
A Rather to Death

Wheatland, Sept. A battle be-
tween a king snake and rattlesnake
was observed on the Wheatland flats
recently by Colorado farmer who is
tending beets there.
The farmer had caught a small king
snake and was carrying it in his
pocket, knowing the reptile to be non
poisonous, and thinking to set it on
any field mouse he might find. Soon
after he encountered rattlesnake, the
third he had found in the same field
He says that no sooner had he pulled
the king snake from his pocket when
the rattlesnake spied it and satrted
away. The king snake almost immed-
lately overlook it, and fastening on
its under jaw, whipped its coils about
the rattlesnake's body, squeezing it to
death.
The true king snake is an inhabitant
Of the south, and it is believed that the
"snake killing" reptile found here is
usually the chain snake.

 The Reformation Lutheran church of this city, last evening awarded to Contractor \. P. Lcavitt the contract to construct an $6O,00 church build ing on Court street,
 The financing Of this congregation is as remarkable a story as the fi- nancing of the Children's Home by the Rev. D. ]. E. Klingberg. In the latter case a property worth almost a million dollars has been built IF without a cent being solicited. In the former case a church will be built for sSO,000 without a cent being ac' cepted. except from members of the congregation in good standing.

The pastor of this church is the Rev. Frederick w. Schacfer. Mir. schaefcr who has had wide e>rori- ence in fhe building up Of mission churches, has been an exponent all his life of the belief that church members should assume their full individual responsibilities in the f. nancing of their own churches.
 Why should we go into the restaurant business, even for one night?" asks Mr. Schaofer. We don't pay taxes, but the man who has a restaurant on the corner does. " If we want to build home for our- selves we don't hold a fair and ask our neighbors to contribute, why should we ask others to help Us build our churches?"
 And so the church will be built and paid for by the members of the congregation. It will be one story and basement structure covering a plot Of ground about 100 hy 42 feet The plans were drawn up by Earl K Bishop in the office of Architect b k. Perry.
