PRESIDENT TO HAVE
|. GREATEST HOOK-UP
Washington Birthday Speech
to Go Through 81 Stations.
Wires to Be Guarded.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, February S.-One-
sixth of the population of the United
States and many thousands in several
foreign countries on February ~ Will
be able to hear every word Of what the
present occupant of the White House
has to say of the first President.
Calvin Coolidge will address, through
81 radio stations, more than 20,O0O,OOO
lstenersin when he speaks before the
joint session of Congress at it's OBJ
Servance of Washington birth 1913
years ago. 1t will be the biggest hook
up that has ever heard a President, or
anybody else, speak.
WaShington'S sole communication
with his people was through few
small newspapers of local circulation
and through letters to governors.
Skilled persons hidden from the radio
audience will keep Mr.. Coolidge's voice
moving clearly along the gigantic net
work of wire and air lanes.
Watch Out for Faults.
More than a hundred men engaged
in the broadcasting must be alert to
the slightest fault in the mechanism.
The number of telephone company
employees occupied in watching the
lines for wire trouble, stepping up
the weakening current at various
points and facilitating transmission
will run into the hundreds. A large
force Of road crews will be sent out
along the line where they can be
reached instantly for any repair work
found necessary during the program.
The Presidents voice will be put on
the wires in Washington and carried
to New York to the studio of the
National Broadcasting Co. Here it
will be sent through labyrinths of
coils and wires, magnified, clarified
and redistributed to stations outside
of New York City.
At various points East, South and
West cities will tap the wire, take the
voice to the radio studio and send it
out over the ether.
Other Preparations Made.
Monitors, skilled listeners with head
sets, will be stationed at hundreds of
points to listen for the slightest in
terruption.
In each of the hook-up radio studios
experts will take the voice off the wire.
magnify it, iron out the kinks and
guide it into the microphone.
Men will stand with hands on con-
trolls ready to vary the frequency ac-
cording to the report of the monitor
or the registration of the meters.
Notwithstanding the various han
ding stages, tho unseen audience will
receive the Presidents voice less than
thousandth of a second after his
words have left his lips.
The program begins at 1890 pm.
Eastern standard time. London will
receive the Presidents words over a
special short-wave transmission from
stations KDKA at Pittsburgh and
WGY at Schenectady.

Whether the year 1890 or the year
1881 A. D. is the two thousandth ami
versary of the year 20 B. C. is a sub
ject that has been agitating the Brit
ish press. The Times says 1890 but
one of its correspondents, Doctor
Glover by name, maintains that it is
1881.
The latter view is based on the
theory that, among other errors, his
torians have mistakenly omitted the
year zero from their computation of
time on an A. D. and B. c. basis. The
system now is that the morning after
December 81 B. c. was January A.

The first moment Pearce set his
eyes on Dorothy Elston, the pretty
milliner, with her sweet, winning ways,
he fell in love with her. He got his
old uncle in Marden to employ Els
ton. The uncle was an eccentric re-
cluse, something of scientist and
had q vast collection of curiOs and was
a good deal of a naturalist.
Two months went by. Pearce made
good many visits to Marden. He
got on famously with Dorothy Elston,
and her brother was keeping away
from his enemy. His employer had
sent him away from town on a mission
of Importance one evening, and Pearce
stayed with his uncle that night, leav-
ing early in the morning before his
uncle was awake.
Serious news reached him in his
own town before nightfall. His uncle
had been robbed Of large amount Of
jewelry. The fact Of Pearce being at
the house and leaving as he did, led to
gossip, and then suspicion. ElStOn
could prove that he was absent when
the old man, now turned sour and
suspicious, had been robbed. The lat
ter did not prosecute, but he ignored
his nephew and former heir after that.
Elston returned to Marden greatly
perturbed over the charge that affected
the man who had been his best friend.
All one day he prOwled about the old
house, trying to figure out how and
why his employer was robbed.
At last Elston rested suspicion upon
stranger who had come to the town
the day before the robbery, and had
been found acting suspiciously on the
public streets the ensuing evening.
The man was serving a thirty days
sentence for the misdemeanor.
One day another stranger met Els
ton and scraped up an acquaintance
with him. He informed Elston that
the man in Jail was a friend of his.
I want to get some money to him
so he can buy little necessaries," ex-
ylained the. man. you're acquainted
here and you can get into the Jail.
Just give him the money, will you
ah, yes, and this cigar"
Elston assented. The mission would
enable him to get closer to the pris-
Oner. On the way to the Jail, how
ever, he happened to notice the cigar.
1t felt soft in the center. He sus-
pected something and investigated. It
was to discover note packed into
small compass, tandsreading:
II can't hang around here for fear
Of exciting suspicion. Your share OF
the loot is hidden in the loft of the
old shed back Of the house we robbed"
Immediately Elston set the officers
on the trail of the man who had given
him the money and cigar. He was
captured, confessed, and Pearce wAs
restored to the good graces Of his
uncle.
Donald Pearce blessed the hour he
had reclaimed from the dregs the re.

name, and led to his gaining the dear.
