Coal Often Referred
to in Pages of Bible

In the authorized version Of the
Bible-the English translation made
in the reign of King James 1.-The
word coal represents no less than five
Hebrew words. The first and most
frequent word is that meaning a live
ember, burning fuel. In II Sam.
% :9-13, 'coals Of fire" are put meta
phorically for the lightnings proceed
ing from the Almighty. In Prov. % 20
there is the proverbial expression,
"Thou shalt heap Goals Of fire upon
his head" which was adopted by st.
Paul in his Epistle to the Romans,
1920, and by which are metaphori-
cally expressed the burning shame and
confusion which men must feel when
their evil is requited by good. In
Prov. 1921 are these words: "As
Goals are to burning Goals, and wood
to fire, so is a contentious man to
kindle strife" Here the word coal
clearly signifies fuel, and the fuel
meant is probably charcoal, and not
coal in the common sense in which
we use the word.

The sheriff nodded and led the way

the long fur of the others chaps
wrapped both arms round Slade above
the knees and dragged him back. His
hand found SHADES throat and he
squeezed down on 1t as the man raised
both knees and thrust them against

but he was jerked q foot from the
floor and Harris jammed his head

But Slade was out Of the fight.
The sheriff struggled to his feet as
Waddes tossed Morrow back from the
door and slammed 1t shut. He closed
with Morrow but the man eluded him.
He dared not shoot with friends and
enemies struggling all about the black
pit of the little room.
Morrow leaped one way, then the
opposite, as the sheriff CROPPED for him.
Alden turned toward a rattle at the
stove as he heard Slade's head crunch
against the wall under Harris savage
thrust.
"Down him!" Waddles reared.
"Tear him down! Tear him down! I'm

From the corner by the stove an
iron pot hurtled across the room for
the sound Of the voice and crashed
against the wall foot from his head.
A second kettle struck Alden in the
chest and he went down. Waddles
saw the light vanish from the window,
then reappear. Morrow had made
headlong dive through the little open

Waddles swung back the door and
sprang outside as Morrow vaulted to

The freight wagons ratified away

wheels on gravel died out in the dis
lance as Harris and Billie finished
their breakfast.
The hands had come in from the
roundup the night before, prior to
the return Of Harris and Waddles
from their mysterious two-day trip in
response to the sheriff's message, and
Evans 'lau led them to Brill's for a
night of play. They were due back at
the ranch in the early forenoon and
Harris had allowed the freighters to
depart before the others arrived.
"What did Alden want?' Billie
asked, referring to the trip from which
he and Waddles had returned late
the night before.
1--WE made call on Carp" he said.
"He had some good news we've been
waiting for"
"Then Carp is Three Bar plant"
she said.
"He's a q. s. plant" Harris correct

us to get something on Slade-to
gather proof that he's behind these
squatter raids of the last few years
and the ones they've aimed at us up
to date. He couldn't get shred that

The. girl started to question him as
to Carp's activities but after the first
sentence she became aware that his

other than her words. he had thrown

known Of Edison's association
with the invention of the radio.
1t is quite evident that Edi-
son, as early as 1875, had hit
upon the fundamental principle
which lies back Of the radio.
Absorbed IN his other inven-
tons, he did not press his dis
covery, and in consequence did
not actively enter the radio
field until many years later.
It seems that In 1875 Edison
discovered b force hitherto I'M
known to him, to which he
gave the name Etheric Force.
This is q phenomenon, not
known before that date, caused
BY electric waves ia free space.
This discovery of etheric
force by 4 Edison has been
termed "the birth of the radio, z
since without q knowledge Of
this force the radio might not
today be an accomplished fact.
In 1888, say Marten and
Dyer, Edison while experiment.
ing with his electric lamp, made
another discovery which plays
9 most important part in every
radio set.
He discovered that an indie
pendent wire or plate placed
between the legs Of the fila
nlent Of an iYlcande descent lamp
acted as q valve to control the
flow Of current.
This was called the Edison
Effect. for which q patent was
issued to him in 1883. This dis
coVcery covers the fundamental
principles on which every radio
tube is based"
Every one. nowadays, is IA
miliar with the affectionate or
contemptuouS way in which the
radio announcer, in broadcast
ing q program, refers to the

In 1875 Edison invented the
carbon telephone transmitter,
an invention which made tele-

The present microphone Is
actually q glorified form Of the
