WASHINGTON-Th new seasonal

The senator has just returned from
a personal survey of conditions in his

is not very dry and the vets back

the senator, as he will tell you
himself

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
EMANCIPATION

EMANCIPATION
I am glad that the girls of the
present
Have reliable wills of their own,
And do not regard man as serf in
clan
Once gazed at King on his
throne;
I am glad they can work out their
problems
And cheerfully go their own way
And not dare to reveal what they
inwardly feel
Till their husbands have told them
they may
In the pale mid Victorian era
All girls were extremely supine,
They hung about men in the attitude
then
Of the feeble and weak clinging
vine.
They dared not express their opinions,
Or even to purchase a dress
Without the consent of some arrogant
gent
Who held them IN VaSSal dureSS.
A woman, I hold, is creature
With mind quite as good as her
mates,
Who can stand on her own if one
let's her alone
Despite her soft feminine traits.
1 am glad she's been freed from her
bondage,
Lives her life at her own sweet
accord,
And can flout the stern law once
regarded with awe
Which held that her man was her
lord.
I can easily hold this opinion
For I wed in the marital school
When women were taught that, for
ever they ought
To submit to the masculine rule.
And though I am glad that the
ladies
Today are so utterly free
To lead their own lives as co-equals
and wives
They are too independent for me.

TEACHER HERE
70 YEARS AGO
VISITS The CITY

Nina Belle Hurst, school teacher,
sport writer and globe trotter, is
visiting Douglas for a few days on
the tail end of trip to England and
France. Miss Hurst is visiting Doug
las especially because twenty years
ago she taught in the Douglas pub
lie schools. Those who met Miss,
Hurst yesterday remarked that time
had changed Douglas but must have
hardly touched the charming school
teacher.
She tells with joy of having wit
messed the worlds series, how she
arrived in New York the day before
the great game there, of how she
took a wrong train to get to the
ball park and of how she flashed
her card as a sports writer for the
Sawtelle Enterprise, little Cali
fornia newspaper, and was given a
press pass to the baseball classic to
go and cheer from the press box.
Miss Hurst tells that they were
lust opening the Gaosden hotel the
last year she taught here that @
avenue was not so very big then and
not nearly so clean nor imposing.
She names over the names of
teachers who were here then and OF
townspeople, many of them gone
now although she discovered last
evening that there are still two or
three teachers in the city who were
in her school twenty years ago.
The traveller will visit the different
schools of the city today through the
courtesy of Superintendent j. E. Carl
son and will address the student
body assembly at the high school
Miss Hurst told the Dispatch reporter
yesterday that she was getting
"great kick" out of visiting Douglas
after seeing London and Paris and
the worlds series and is going back
to her school work in Los Angeles
somewhat regretful that she cannot
transfer back to the town where she
taught when the town was young
as she still is.

Plan Would Number Channels Instead

In order to put an end to the ques-
ton of whether freQueneies shall be
measured in kiloeyeles or wavelengths
in meters-both said to be confusing
to the listening public-a specially ap-
pointed committee of the National
Electrical Manufacturers association
is now seriously considering the pos
sibility of recommending to the fed
eral radio commission the simple al
tentative of giving numbers to wave
If the new system were to prevail,
an announcer would then say, "This
is station K0A of Denver broadcast
ing on Channel No. 9. The idea of
numbering the channels has been ad-
vaneed by R. H. Langley of Cinein-
natl, who has been made chairman of
the committee designated to study the
question.
The confusion which comes from
the widespread use of two different
units for the same measurement has
not only bothered the general radio
lublie, but has even hindered radio
engineers.
The adoption of such a scheme has
a number Of obvious advantages. It
would mean simpler scale on re-

Care of the Eyes
Since vision is entirely matter of
light, it follows that we cannot be
too careful in having light of the
proper kind and amount upon the OBJ
jeet under view. When reading, for
example, the light should fall on the
page over the readers left shoulder.
The best kind of light is that which
most clearly duplicates daylight. The
light should be steady (neyer flicker
ingl and of medium intensity. A too
bright light is almost as Objectionable
as one that is too dim. The best is
diffused light from overhead. In
looking at any object it should be
held perpendieularly to the line of Vi
sion. The eyes should be rested every
few minutes by closing them or look

Radio Broadeasters Aid in Gunfire
Sound Tests

The British air ministry has req
uisitioned the services Of broadcast
ing to determine the distance at which
gunfire can be heard. At a given
time tie DaYentry station will send
out eight dot seconds. At the eighth
second big gun viii be fired at Shoe
buryness and listeners are then asked
to discard their earphones and listen
for the report. carefully noting the
time between the firing Of the gun
and reception of the sound.
It will be recalled that during the
war this method was extensively used
on the western front for the purpose
of locating hostile artillery, but was
futile under certain weather condi-
tons. It is also suggested that radio
might be used for carrying out on an
extensive scale experiments on the
speed Of sound in air.
Radio waves travel for practical
purposes simultaneously with light,
but the velocity Of sound is an I'M
certain quantity, depending on various
factors. not the least of which is the
direction and velocity Of the prevail
ing wind.
