published a rather patronizing article about a MT. Edison, an American, who had made an electrical lamp. A toy lamp" was the description used. The magazine assured it's readers who might be owners of shares in gas companies that they need not fear competition from this "toy lamp"
 Another of these amazing "toys" was the first telephone. It was as patronizingly receiv- ed as the electric light and came into practical use almost as suddenly. Television in it's field of light transmission is even more startling than was the telephone in sound trans mission. It follows along the path of discovery opened by the sending of photographs across continents by wire and under seas by cable.
 The seeing-and-talking wire is here, and both sound and image are now moving by ra- dio on a single wave length. New chapters are being writ ten in it's development. Trans mission is being heightened and simplified.
 Ten years ago it may have seemed that communication by electricity and ether was ap- preaching the end of the chap ter. Then came radio. That in- fant has become another giant. Wireless telephony came with it, and continents talk now to continents. The transmission of images was being developed at the same time. A burst of new discovery has broken over the world of electricity like an avalanche.

BUSINESS ON THE
 UP GRADE

Improvement must take place in industry before purchasing power can gain and permit more liberal buying by con. sumers. Outside newspapers tell us that from indications in wholesale and manufactur- ing markets, this improvement is under way. Buyers are num- erous in the various markets and, while their operations may be of the testing-out kind, the volume of their advance orders is fairly satisfactory.
 The key industries are furn- .ishing the best evidence of im- provement at present. With the start furnished by the auto mobile business, the steel in- . ;dustry has gained additional impetus from sales to railroads and agricultural implement makers. Building specifications also have been good, especially for engineering projects. If these keylines continue to furn- -ish such favorable reports, the groundwork is laid for the pre- dicted return in the general economic situation.
 All in all, 1928 promises to smash a tradition by bringing new prosperity in a president ial year. January saw it off to a good start and everything points to eleven months of peak production.
 Already the nation seems to have fully recovered from the brief spell of depression with which 1927 closed. Perhaps that was breathing spell for a year of unprecedented pro. duction and consumption.

SPRINCTIME.

Already there are signs of approaching spring, although officially it is not due to arrive 1ntil March 21.
 Spring is the season of rein carnation, rejuvenation and radiant life. It is only to man hat January 1 represents the birth of a new year and the calendar year is an artificial structure. With plant life and that of the lower animals the coming of spring is at once the birth of a new year and new
Hyder weekly herald., 1928-02-18

life.
 Humanity recognizes and speaks of a new year as from January 1 but nevertheless ob- serves it from the first breath of spring. After the departure of the drear and stifling winter and with the coming of refresh ing and magnetic spring there is new life and new hope ere ated in the breasts of men and women. Spring brings great plans and high resolves which only winter can demolish or deter.
 It is not sufficient to say that the homing instinct is convent ent in the spring. It is natural and not to be gainsaid by man or beast. Spring urges the bird to build it's nest, the animal to burrow into it's mother earth and man to plan his home, but neither bird, beast nor man knows or asks why. Spring is the one and only irresistible force.

sound OF a revolver skimming across

He was Just IN time to sec Glory Law

erably. HenneSsy was not to be en-

didn't know Just how severely the man
was wounded; but he did know that
Hennessy had lost his gun.
And then started the battle. Once he
heard scraplng along the top Of some
crates piled against the side of the ship.
He craWled TO meet II and in the black
ness he and Lawson exchanged shots.
Another time Lawson tried to shift posi-
tlon TO where he might command the
alley In which Kerry was sheltered.
Two bullets from the watchman's auto
matte sent him scurrying back 20 the
other side Of the hatch. Time seemed to
creep: yet Dave Kerry knew that not
20 minutes had elapsed since he had
nattened Grogan and precipitated the
battle
He moved some OF the cargo and hid

essayed one more shot when Lawson
exposed himself for a moment. He
missed. and Glory's answering crack
came perilously close And then Dave
Kerry realized that he had exhausted
the last cartridge in his clip.
There was only one thing for him to
do to remain under cover, hoping that
Lawson did not know he was bereft of
