coming spelling contest.
A thorough lesson in "Accidents
and Emergencies" was held in all
the grades this week. What to do
in case of "fainting, choking, burn
ing and scolding; how to care for
person who is drowning, etc., al
so how to manage patient with a
broken bone. Perhaps we found
that what not to do is as important
as what to do. We found one
rule to ibe very good. "Do not get
excited and work quickly" We
also learned what to do in case of
fire, or in case ones clothing catch
es fire. The little folks learned the
more simple rules, and to call an
older person at once in case of
danger.
Next week. is safety first" week
in our school, we hope to have
many interesting discussions.
The past week in history, we
purchased the louisiana Territory,
and went on a journey with Lewis
and Clark exploring this territory.
We saw Napoleon attempt to
rule the world and saw the disast-
er that was brought about through
the cunning and desire for power
of this one man. We fought the
war of 1912 and purchased Flor
ida from Spain, and now we turn
our attention westward.
The eighth grade has been

Ed Backus, Minneapolis, millionaire lumber
man. has sent broadcast the state eek
planning" the reason why he is supporting Mr.. Low.
den for President, as against Herbert Hoover. In
his latest publicity release he charges that E. E.
Smith, "Big Ed" he dubs him, has conspired
with the Isaac Walton League, to get HIN IN bad
with the people of the State by questioning the
purity of his motives in supporting Mr.. Lowden.
The inconsistency of the statement far Ed
Smith is concerned is that he is old time and
close personal friend of Mr.. Lowden and is support
ing him at this time. AS matter of fact Mr..
Lowden wanted Smith to handle his campaing in
Minnesota If the rest of Backus' broadside is not
any reliable than that portion referring to Ed
Smith, it is very largely ordinary bunk.

Community packing of farm pro-
ducts is an important feature of
many cooperative marketing assoc
iations. When competent and dis
interested men have charge of the
packing they can grade the fruits
or vegetables to insure a Standard
lied and reliable product which will
come to be known on the markets.
When the crop is large enough, or
when many growers in different
communities are cooperating, it be-
comes possible to advertise and
expand the market with only a
trifling expense assessed against
each unit of sale.

USE CONVALESCENT
SERUM AS REMEDY
District Doctors Experiment
With Treatment of Infan-
tile Paralysis.

Experiments Of a highly important
nature. involving the use of convalescent
serum in the treatment of mtantile
psra,vsiS one Of the most dreaded and
battling diseases known TO medical
science. are being conducted by a COM
mittee of specialists representing the
+ District of Columbia Medical Society, 1t
+ became known today.
AT the same time the Medical Society
fastened to correct any impression that
there is an epidemic in the District or
even any condition that would sug-
eest fears Of an epidemic. So far rs
known "a health authorities in the Dis
trict. the few isolated cases here are
certainly no cause for alarm on the part
Of the public or mC iical profession.
In view of the reports Of a number
of cases Of infantile paralysis in vari-
Gus sections of the country and as
suggested by inquiries as TO the situation
in Washington and its vicinity" it was
announced today. "the Medical Society
of the District of Columbia has APP
pointed a committee TO give special
attention to the subject, The commit
tee fees that there is no reason for
unusual concern on the part of resi-
dents OF this city. as the number Of
cases developing here is not greater
than is common at this season,
Statement of Committee.
The careful study Of the disease III
other sections during the past few
wears has convinced many of the lead
ing medical men that much may be
accomplished in the treatment OF the
various stages Of the Illness to lessen
or prevent the effects so well known
and 10 improve the condition OF the
patients in whom paralysis of a more
or less serious degree have occurred.
The committee stated.
1T has been a part OF the work OF
this committee to take steps to make
available ma erial for the carrying out
of these measures which are believed
to be most effective.
1T is likewise one Oh the chief aims
Of the committee to be III a position
10 cooper; to the best advantage
with recognized health agencies II the
need should arise It is, however.
again emphasized that these plans have
been adopted merely as precaution
which seems wise even though there
appears only the remotest possibility OF
any need of the operation.

convalescent serum in the treatment OF
disease and its prevention under cir
cumstances in which epidemics prevail.
II is an established fact that pa
tient who has recovered from infantile
paralysis is wholly immune from the
disease. Consequently, blood obtained
from these patients, 1t is believed. can
be used successfully in innoculating
others against 1t and In preventing
many of the injuries from paralysis
developing from the disease. Many of
these injuries of a nature to render the
patient an invalid for life, often result
in death.
The committee on infantile paralysis
OF the local medical society is conduct
ing experiments along these lines in
common with the research work con-
Quoted by health agencies in other
sections of the country.
Serum Being Saved.
As pointed out by the Rockefeller
Institute, supplies Of the serum COM
pounded from the blood of patients are
being deposited at strategic points

who have been innoculated with the
virus. The disease is still so hard
to control that no experiment. have
been made involving the incubation of
human beings with the virus.
1t is not so difficult to obtain the
blood of patients who have recovered
from infantile paralysis as it would
seem. the local committee indicated.
In Washington, as in every section
where the disease is known, there arc
numerous persons who have formerly
been afflicted with the disease either
seriously or slightly, as the case may be.
While the use Of the serum is still
in the experimental stage. the Rookie
Teller Institute and others who have
studied its effects thus far are hope
full that it will be fruitful of hcnc-
fetal results In fact, it is considered
wholly important to keep in reserve

now and hung in glorious profusion over
1~r shoulders as she walked toward the
fence, where big Ben Judd was standing.
II, had been leaning on the fence heli
an hour now, and Thursa's smile
seemed to indicate that she would not
be an unwilling sacrifice to Miss Tim
mer1 scheme.
After all. big Ben Judd would not be
the worst husband In the world. The
farm he had inherited from his father
was a noble one, and his mother. who
kept house for him, was a pleasant little
lady Thursa would easily rule her and
rule big Ben, too.
Having decided to be matchmaker
Miss Thinner let her mind dwell on
ways and means. Ben Judd was sure
to make a success CT life, because he
knew what he wanted and how to get
it, He wanted the best farm in the
county. stocked with the best cattle and
horses and hogs and chickens. He
owned the best farm now, the first farm
beyond the village, of which Miss Tim
mer's cottage was the last house. and
his house, his barn. and other build
ings were already as near perfection as
buildings could be, painted until they
seemed vanished, roofs tight and every
convenience Installed. Ever since he
had been small boy he had been a
constant visitor at Miss Timmer's. so
unconventionally at home there that he
called her Aunt Emmy" After the
nieces came TO live with Miss Thinner
he treated them as If they were his
sisters.
AS q matchmaker Miss Thinner
hardly knew how to proceed. It was not
very easy to show Ben that he was
especially welcome, since he had been
more TRAN entirely welcome for so many
Jears The normal procedure would be
10 give a party and invite Ben to the
party, but unfortunately, that would
not mean much to Ben because he
would never think of Miss Timmer's
giving party and not inviting him.
On a party, however, Miss Thinner re-
solved as she looked out of the WIN
dow, and, as Thursa was to have
birthday the next week, the occasion
was supplied Ben could be invited to
supper before the party. and that
would show him he was to that extent
at least preferred young man.
y
TT was almost noon when Thursa
came in, and Miss Thinner had gone
down to prepare lunch. Miss Thinner
glanced at her as she entered the
Kitchen. Thursa was so beautiful that
her aunt almost caught her breath
What we're you and Ben talking
ahout?" Thursa's aunt asked. You
seemed very much interested in some
thing"

Other sets were ordered, and the
yards were busy building stations along
the coast mostly on lighthouse reserva-
tions, because the Navy had no land
of its own to build on.
IAN electrician who had been with
the tests at Washington was ordered
to the Brooklyn Navy Yard as instruc-
tor, and by September. 1908. enough
electricians had been taught code to be
assigned to these shore stations
The sets in those days were 60-cycle

The coastal stations were about 200
miles apart. The Navy looked forward
to the time when it could reach all our
ships and outposts from a single station.

distance record was 1877 miles. in 1907,
when the feet sailed around the world,
the Fire Island operator held two-way
communication with the Connecticut
and the Missouri as distant as 1890
miles, which in those days was remark
able distance.
About 1907 the department became
interested in greater power. The Fes-
senden Co. had been experimenting
with a l00-kilowatt spark set at Brant
Rock, Mass. The Salem and Birming-
ham were assigned to test work with
this station, and on the strength of
results the department purchased equip
mant from this cOmDany.
Then the problem arose as to where
these transmitters should be installed
Money was available for towers and
building but no suitable site could be
obtained. Congress was not interested
in radio and would not appropriate a
building site. So for two years this
equipment lay in storage at the wash
ineton Navy Yard.

ground belonging to the Fort Myer
reservation for station site. 1t was
less than the Navy wanted. But a
slice was better than nothing.
