RADIO STATIC MAY EXPLAIN OLD SOL
That and Fading Being Studied
 Relative to Sun

Philadelphia, Dec. 2S (P) - A knowledge of the structure and &C., tivity of the sun may be obtained in the next 25 years by a study of the i static" and fading" of radio, in the opinion of Dr. Michael I. Pupin,
 professor of electromagnetic at Columbia university, and retiring
 president of the American Associa- tion of the Advancement of Science. Addressing the associations an- nual convention last night, Dr. Pu- pin said he regarded static" and fading" earth currents in submarine cables as ines. ages" of solar activ- | ity which the mind of man could not appreciate, but which the coming 25 years of progress would probably decipher.
 Dr. Pupin also said he felt that
 within a few years the American method for almost instantaneous long distance telephoning would be
 duplicated on the continent of Eu-
 rope and that through the increas- ed facilities would proceed the hu-
 man interrelationship which fosters l peaceful emotion" He remarked , that he did not think of what science
 would do in the next war, but only
 of what it would do to prevent the next war.

Sarah Schuyler Butler, Daughter of Columbia President, Says Day of Feminine Crusader" is Definitely Over and Fair Sex Now Must do Real Work.

New York, Dec. 2s R-A plea that women who desire to make themselves felt in politics next year take a new year resolution to drop feministic and seX-conscious ideas and get down to work" was voiced today by Sarah Schuyler Butler.
 Miss Butler. who is a daughter of Nicholas Murray Butler, presi- dent of Columbia University, has been prominent in New York state political circles for some time. She is vice president of the republican woman's state committee.
 ''The day of the feminist crusader in the United States is definitely over," said Miss Butler, "and the only way now for women to function fully in the political field is for them to start at the bottom and learn the game from the ward canvassing stage on up.
 ''There are only two ways for q woman to get invited to important political conferences" she explained to the Associated Press. "One is for her to be so influential that she is necessary, which is unlikely, and the other is to inspire the leaders with confidence in her political judgment Womn need practical experience in the chores of ward and district word and they should be judged only by results as men are"
 Miss Butler said there is a great need for women in politics. and they are taking more interest every year. They do detail work painstakingly and, she has observed, they are cap able of great loyalty. Frequently, she added, they are likely to consid- CT politics the main interest of life, and not as only a one of the neces- sary elements of being good citi- gen."
 ITO devote the wholeaof ones life to politics." she said, 'is to warp ones point of view. Yet we find that if we don't keep our women workers busy between campaigns we lose them to other organizations, other drives, campaigns, and move ments, which will make use of their surpus enthusiasms.
 "One of the greatest lessons which women should learn" continued Miss Butler, lis party loyalty. Wo- men should realize that the two party system, with all it's faults, is the best instrument to date for democratic government. Unless the people have parties, which it can hold Responsible as it would an in dividual, the result is something like Mexican chaos, or kaleidoscope ministries as i'll France.
 And in working for party, a woman binds herself to abide by the will of the majority in the organ ization.
 "Non- partisan organizations com- nosed only of women are as out of date as the suffrage movement
 Miss Butler said she felt that it was because women in this country are still likely to be very feminlstlc when they go into political work that they do not get such "dignifled and desirable publicity as they do in England. There, she added. their activities are taken more as mat ter of course.

DROP FEMINISM AND SEX IDEAS.
 ADVICE TO WOMEN IN POLITICS
WIZ TO BROADCAST AWARDING OF PRIZE
Elihu Root to Get Wilson Peace
 Request Tonight

New York, Dec. 2S R-The Woodrow Wilson foundation peace prize for 1926 will be formally pre- sented to Elihu Root at dinner at the Hotel Astor tonight on the roth birthday anniversary of the demo- cratic wartime president. Mrs. Will son plans to attend.
 The award was given to MT. Root, Norman H. Davis. president of the foundation, has announced, for his l work in 1920 in the creation of the permanent court of international justice. In addition to cash prize of s25,o00. he will receive the Wood row Wilson award medal.
 The former republican secretary of state is the second person to re- ceive the Wilson award. Viscount Cecil of Chelwood, Great Britain's chief representative to the league of nations, was awarded the founda- tion prize in 1924 for meritorious service to peace through justice. Tonight's program will be broad cast from WIZ at o'clock. MT. Davis has said of MT. Roots selection for the Wilson award: "The growing prestige of the world court and its success in pre- serving peace through the settlement of international questions of a jus ticiable character has demonstrated the importance of the services he rendered in 1920. His ambition for world peace has long been mani- fested."
 The Woodrow Wilson foundation was established Dec. 23, 1920. from funds collected throughout the United States.
 A previously unpublished letter of Woodrow Wilson. in which he com- mended Governor Alfred E. Smith to an unnamed but well known citizen of New York" has been made public. The letter, written in February 1919, congratulated Presi- dent Wilson on his trip to the Yer | SdlllSS pttCc COliISl CilIC, pue "a pressed misgivings as to Tammany Halls affiliations with the newly elected governor of New York.
 T hope and believe" wrote Presi- dent Wilson, that you will not be disappointed in Governor Smith. He is a man who has stood quite apart in a great many ways and I believe he feels in an unusual degree the impulses and compulsions of the changed order of the nations and | the worlds affairs"
 The letter was made public last night on the occasion of meeting 1 in Albany of local subscribers to the Wilson foundation. Mrs. Wilson at tended the meeting.

|HUDDLE AND SHIFT
 MUCH CRITICIZED
Eastern Officials Set Three
 Seconds for Change in Rules

New York, Dec. ,27 R - East ern football officials agree that something should be done about the shift and huddle.
 Meeting in annual session until early this morning, the Eastern as- sociation of intercollegiate football officials devoted much of its time to criticism of the huddle as slowing up play and of the shift as mak- ing it difficult for officials to deter mine legality. AS a result, a sug- gestion will be made to the rules committee that on all shift and huddle plays, after the players have become set, they shall remain in their rearranged positions for three seconds before the ball is snapped. The eastern officials went the Western Conference one second better in their suggestion. the westerners having decreed a two- second halt.
 If the rules committee agrees with the officials in another sug- gestion, referees and umpires will be given wider latitude in impos- ing penalties for unfair play not otherwise provided for in the rules. Rule 21, section g, now provides a five-yard penalty and the officials would see it amended to provide a proper penalty"
 Limitations placed on the for ward pass during the 1926 season, including five yard penalty for a second incompleted pass during one series of four downs, were not ef- fective, in the opinion of the off, cials. A suggestion will go forward to the rules makers that the exist l ing limitation be changed or abol- ished. The suggestion will not in clude proposed remedy for the deficiencies.
 l A provision previously in effect but not now in the rules providing that an offside player touching a punted ball should be penalized five yards and touchback de- clared if the offense be committed within the ten yard line. the off, , cials thought should be restored. No fault was found with the working of the try for point after touchdown.
 A suggestion was made that a clearer definition be given in the rules as to proper equipment, es-
 pecially cleats.
 Eight minute periods were favor ed for junior and elementary school games.
 David L. Fultz, (Brown), of New
 York, was elected president of the association, succeeding Walter R.
 Okeson of Lehigh. Dr. Edward J. O'Brien, (Tufts), of Boston. was made vice president, and Arthur V.

had left him alone and did not act
mad" at all.
OF course, often he was sadly dis
appointed when they went of and left
him and he would show how he want
ed to go, and he would look so eager
and so pleading.
But yet when they came back he had
quite, quite forgiven them. He showed
no touchy manner at ALL Nor did he
feel anything but forgiving.
Still there was one thing Nip could
not understand. You see, he liked to
play and to be so companionable He
liked to go everywhere and he be-
haved well when he was taken out
But he did not care about doing
tricks and he didn't see just why he
should
There was one trick that was just
too silly for words. He wondered why
they wanted him to do it.
They wanted him to stand on his
hind legs.
Now he could jump up and stand
that way for second or two but to
stand any longer was too absurd
In the first place, people expected of
dogs what they couldn't or wouldn't
do themselves.
Nip had noticed that people never
asked each other to stand up on one
leg and to stay that way for quite a
little while.
When some one gave some one else
candy, for example, they didn't ex-
pect the person receiving the candy
to go around standing on one leg.
And that was no more foolish than
to expect dog to stand on two. Half
the number of his legs amounted to
two. just as half the number of a per
sons amounted to one.
So Nip's idea was that 1t was very
foolish trick and he didn't care about
doing it.
After lunch was over he and his
little master used to make rush to
the couch for both felt sleepy, but
both tried to occupy most of it. They
always did share 1t pretty fairly but
each made rush for it to get there
first Nip used to lie with his head
on a red pillow and his right black
ear looked so nicely upon the red. But
he was lighter sleeper than his mas
ter and woke up If he heard any
sounds, moving his head about, watch
full, very watchful.
But oh, that was a silly trick, that
of standing on two legs. Nip certainly
had his own ideas about thatl

In the Pageant.
When even the most exhaustive research dis
closed the fact that no authentic picture, por-

toga Wagon" in which the tide of American
expansion rolled westward, pilgrims Learning
to Fertilize With FISH" the earliest example Of

of this special work. Even more striking is the
fact that Mr.. Ogden took two and half years to
prepare series Of seventeen pages of tllustra-
lions depicting In color approximately 240 exam
pies of the uniforms worn by officers and men
in the army and navy through all the wars, as
well as the uniforms of their opponents. This
alone cost more than $4,000, but it presents fund
of historical information which has never before
been available to historians and writer's.

the basis, publication Of 1.-THE Pageant Of Amer
lea" was then begun In fifteen volumes, each with
approximately $50 illustrations and 10000 words
of text. Although the Pageant is pictorial his
tory it is not history in pictures alone Each
volume begins with an essay outline in which
the historical development to be pictured is
swiftly aud graphically described. Each chapter
deals with group of pictures In sequence with
short introductions and short captions under the
picture which tie together the pictures in the
presentation of the main topic-an illustrated

In keeping with the dignity and Importance
of the subject matter is the craftsmanship which
went into making these books Special paper,
printing the pictures from half-tones instead OF
from electrotypes made from half-tones and rum

NIP's IDEAS

Nip had been having a beautiful
time at the beach. Nip was fox ter
rier and he had had the honor of play
ing with big, handsome, wise aire-
dale all that morning.
Fritz was the name of the big aire-
dale and the latter had been swim
ming a great deal, whereas Nip was
not very fond of swimming.
He could swim but he wasn't the
one to rave about it.
As for the airedale, he swan races
with his mistress and always won so
easily and without any effort at all,
even when he held back and tried not
to go quickly.
But Nip had been playing with him
on the beach and Fritz had been so
nice with the younger and smaller dog.
He had not been rough and yet he had
played so that Nip had felt he was
having a wonderful time with the big
dog, and he had not felt that the big
dog was above him in the least.
Then Nip had run races in the sand
and had played and jumped about,
spoken to perfect strangers in his cor
dial little way, jumped up at them and
even kissed some of them as he greet
ed them.
After the morning at the beach was
over and they had gone home to most
delicious meal Nip took nap. But
when he awoke he thought he would
like to chew little bit and began to
chew on a pillow.
Now Nip had doll, funny old doll
which had always belonged to him and
which was for him to chew. So when
ever he started chewing anything else
member of the family came rushing
to Nip and saying:
"Nol No! MOI Naughty Nip. Chew
your doll"
Then they would give him his doll
and Nip knew that he was supposed
to chew that but nothing else. He I'M
derstood great deal.
He was just as friendly and nice
when the family came back after they
