The lad told Nally that he left
home yesterday morning and, by
hopping one freight and another
succeeded in reaching Alexandria
last night. He spent the remainder
Of the night IN the railroad yards
trying to hide In the shadows. and
came to Washington on truck

BE WISE AS THE OWL.

A little owl was mighty wise,
He always looked with both his eyes.
And when he looked he always saw
New things he d never seen before.
And what he saw with both his eyes
He ne er divuged nor scandalized;
He saw it ALL said not a word,
Forsoothe, he was a wise old bird.
When mortals see and spread the news
To neghbors, friends in 'parley-vous
They add thereto or take therefrom
A bit of fact which everyone
Repeats with added zest and vim
In tinted views of her him
Just what John Smith had never seen,
Just idle gossip-just dream.
So when you hear when you see
Be wise as owls can ever be,
The word let loose by idle tongue
Can't be recalled by anyone.
The mischief spreads like shafts of wheat
Before the tempest, and like the heat
OF forest fires consumes all things
We would preserve from sneers and stings,
From calumny, from jibes and lies
Which bury TRUTH which stigmatize,
And leave the heart crushed in its pain
Its normal self to ne er regain.
For are we not more than the beast,
A soul, mind, possessed at least
With heaven gifts beyond the herd
Of lowing cattle, singing bird.
If Gods small creatures gayly lay
Is breathed in air both night and day,
Why cannot humans now and then
Sing praises Of their fellow-men.
The adage true let's bear in mind,
There's good in all, let's not be blind,
That e en- in good there is some bad,
Perfection longed, is never had
One tongue God gave, lest with its
Another tongue may spread abuse,
So guard it well-the spoken word,
Be wise as owls, that wise old bird

219 Miller street, Trenton, N. J., tray-
eled from California to New York, via
the Panama Canal, there was not one
night in which he failed to tune in
radio station WOK. broadcasting from
Chicago on its low wavelength of 217.3

report Of this remarkable reception TO
the station director:
"As a sailor I wish to report that
you come in fine thousands of miles at
sea. Never lost you night from Los
Angeles TO New York City on oil tank
er, via Panama. No interference on

An unusual record of daylight recep-
ton was reported to station WOK by
r. A. Cole, 1904 Hermosa avenue, Los
Angeles, Calf. Mr.. Cole wrote:

Announcements During Big
Test to Give Calls
Frequently.

The frequent stressing Of station call
numbers by European broadcasters
during International Radio Week,
January 24-30, has been one of the
principal things decided on in an eff
fort to bring results of the broadcast
ing up to the highest possible point.
This was announced by Powell Cros-
ley Jr., chairman of the executive
committee for International Radio
Week.
THE lack Of call number stressing
last year was a serious drawback to
the good that was sought" said Mr..
Crosley. land every effort will be
made this year to permit the listener
in to know what station he is hearing
rather than to hear good reception of
the program being broadcast.
Last year many American fans
were successful in getting foreign re-
ception but often they had TO listen
to a program for as long as 20 minutes
before they were informed what sta
ton it was coming from. As much as
the ordinary fan likes to hear pro-
grams especially Of foreign source he
would rather. during International
Radio Week be permitted TO fish for
another station as soon as he has
found one.
1T is the thrill from getting sew
eral stations rather than simply for
eign program that the fan wants. Ev-
cry effort has been made to have all
foreign stations, during International
week, break into their programs and
announce the station call letters fire.
quently. In this way the fan who is
listening in because he likes the pro-
gram will hear the station announced
many times and to him this may seem
But on the other hand,
the frequent announcing will keep the
man who is fishing from waiting too
long before trying for another sta
tion."
international Radio Week. in 1926
will be the biggest radio event of its
kind yet staged in the world, in Mr..
Crosley's opinion
