All of them, from the heavy walrus

a general move against hair on mems
faces in any sort OF design. Propa.

FIRE WINS DURING FIGHT.
Rival Brigades Battle Over Rights
With Hose Streams.
Of the Associated Press.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
BERLIN.-Farmhou stables and
agricultural machinery were the vic.
tins of flames near Illkofen, Bavaria.
because the fire brigades from two
rival towns pointed the water hose at
each other in fight over jurisdiction.
In response to the alarm the fire
brigades of Regensburg and lllkofen
arrived at about the same time. There
was solemn parleying at first. the
crew of each brigade claiming that it
had the sole right to quench the fire.
As arguments proved ineffective. the
lilkofenera reinforced their point of
view by ternng on tho hose against
the Regensburgers. These replied i'm
kind. and snOn merry battle of
shower baths was on.
Meanwhile the farm buildings
burned to the ground.

Summer radio-which means an
infinite variety of short entertain
nnent pieces-will be the order Of
the loud speaker this afternoon and
evening from all sections of the
continent. Lighter types of music
win prevail-but there will be quite
q variety of that and in addition
to that several things that are not
of a musical For instance, this
afternoon Martin Never will declaim
on the Romance of Steel from
WEAF and WRC for fifteen min
utes or more-and there is real
romance in steel, prosaic as the
idea might sound.
At o'clock the regular Smith.
Bonian Institution talk will be given
by T. T. Belote, of the National
Museum and will deal with the
coins Of Asia, which has many of
them of widely different character
snd fascinating history. Alice
Hutchins Drake. whose talks on
art in Washington have been fea-
lures of WRC for many months,
will give series of stories of
stained glass windows branch of
art that few people understand or
have acquaintance with.
It may be that the speaker will
call attention to the fact that the
famous Leyendecker brothers, whose
magazine cover designs are well
known, were first trained in stained
glass production and belonged to a
family of stained glass producers

PRODUCERS HAVE
DONE FINE WORK

The work of Henry Fiske Garlic
ton in preparing these scenarios
and OF Gerald Scott in staging
them has been of the highest order
and the manner of presentation by
the cast of actors has been in keep
ing with the work of the producers.
We hope this series will he resumed
later on. We're promised one more
episode for the afternoon of July
4, and we're hoping WRC will
broadcast it. The thanks of ali
listeners are due the promoters of
the series and we're taking the
liberty of extending their best
wishes and heartfelt appreciation for
what has already been done.
The most impressive bit of broad
casting last evening was the an
nual convention church service of
the American Guild of Orgarists
from Epiphany Church, which
WMAL gave to the waveIeneths.
A combination of a religiuos and
musical program unusually wei
presented by the choir of Epiphany
Church brought an odd instrumental
arrangement to loud speakers with
the voices OF the choir. the organ.
trumpets. trombone and kettle
drum.
The regular programs OF wRC
and WMAL for Tuesday were well
presented, as usual. In the nut
side wavelengths we heard the last
of the Don Amaizo features from
VIZ, and. at KDKA, our old friend
Elias Breeskin, was heard in one
or two violin numbers that were
pleasing.

HISTORY SERIES
IS FINISHED

just 4 BIT more noise disturbed
the ether last night than has
been the rule for week or so.
but there was not enough noise
to eclipse the programs that
came from all sections with
clarity and volume. Some fad.
ing was noticeable and the whis-
tllng and other forms of inter.
ference were likewise prominent.
But there were good programs
to be found and dial twisterS
should have made a good logging
night Of it.
However similar we may have
found the voices of Sam Houston
and Andrew Jackson and General
Grant and Theodore Roosevelt in
tone and texture and infection, at
the same time there are quite a lot
OF us who will regret the ending
OF the most interesting series of
radio dramas called Great Mo-
ments in History" which were com
pleted last evening with the story
OF the battle of San Juan Hill from
WRC and the other National Broad
