tanning instructions which they could
not get before.
Radios usefulness in emergencies
has not been confined to the sea alore.
Many still remember the horror of the
first news of the terrible earthquake
in Japan which spread destruction
and desolation through the richest
section Of that country and laid low
telegraph and telephone lines, cutting
the section off from all contact with
the outside world.
1t was radio that closed up the gap
in that case and came through with
the news Of the disaster and brought
help from every part of the world to
the stricken ones.
What Radio Has Done.
We do not have to go outside of our
| own country to find examples of what
radio has done in emergencies. Only
several years ago a destructive bliz-
zard swept through the northern half
of the United States, cutting down
telephone and telegraph lines all over
the section and leaving tie-ups of
! trains wherever it passed Many Of
the largest centers in the section. such
as Chicago. st. Louis, Kansas City
and Omaha. as well as many other
| important centers. were completely
cut off from the rest Of the country.
| Here again radio jumped into the
gap. Regular musical and b. .oadcast
numbers were suspended and the
broadcasting stations and amateur
stations bent all their energies to
| bring through messages Of vital i'm
portance.
Radio has demonstrated it's useful

Radio Closes In the Gaps.-Part III.

After radio has closed up the gap
that existed between isolated ships
and stations on land and on other
ships. it proceeded to find to what
uses it could be put on land.
Few Of the pioneers who were inti-
mately connected with this new sci
ence, but who thought of it as limited
strictly to use between ships and be-
tween ships and land stations ever
dreamed that it would become as gen.
orally used as it is today on land.
The story Of broadcasting is so well
known that little need be said of this
new power in shaping the ideas and
ideals of the people of this and Other
countries. Through broadcasting there
has resulted a newer appreciation of
music by even those in such humble
circumstances that they cannot afford
to pay the price of admission to the
music centers.
Easier Than Reading.
Lstening-in over the radio to talks
and lectures by prominent educators
and political leaders Is much easier
| than reading their speeches in the
newspapers, magazines and books,
and many are the men, women and
children who have been benefited by
these talks.
Many a farmer has been helped
materially in his planting and care of
his crops by the up-to-the-minute
weather reports that are sent out
regularly by many broadcasting sta
tions. The prices of live stock and
farm products that are broadcast
regularly from many stations have
saved farmers and breeders from
being cheated out of thousands of dol
lars by INSCRIPTIONS spectators.
These are services which are being
used to advantage by the farmers.
Courses by Radio.

announced that in a vision the Lord
had instructed the Shakers to pro.

its people and blessing upon Day

presently two elders appeared on
horseback in the streets Of Lebanon
and galloped up and down calling the
curse of the Lord upon the village
for the intolerance and bigotry of its
people. Later in the same day, the
two elders appeared on a street in
Dayton. and waving their hats as
they rode called upon the Lord to
bless the town and its citizens.
