Peter Rabbit was in high spirits when
he reached the Green Forest. A full
stomach will put almost any one in
high spirits. Peter was most anxious
to find his big cousin. Jumper the Hare,
and tell him about tile good things
he found in Farmer Browns barn and
how that barn could be entered through
a little swinging door. He rather hoped
that Jumper would go over there with
him.
But It was long time before he
found his cousin, Jumper the Hare. In
fact, Peter was quite tired out when
at last he saw Jumper in his white coat
hopping along down the Crooked Little

Splendid Record

On December 27, at 7:S0 P. NJ, KOMO passed it's ten thousandth hour on the air in slightly less than two years time. In 1927 K0MO was on the air for 4752 hours. At mid night, December 31, 1928, KOMo in creased it's 1927 record by 562 hours as the result of a grand total of 5314 hours on the air in 1928. 10000 hours of broadcasting in less than two years time is believed to be a record for American stations, espe- cially when it is considered that none of this time was taken for broad casting photograph records or simi- lar devices for mechanical reproduc- tion of entertainment. The only semblance to mechanical production, in the entire two years time, were few brief extracts from movietone accompaniment to film dramas shown at the Fifth Avenue Theatre, Seat tie, but even this has probably to- tailed less than 20 hours, during the entire 10000 hours broadcast
 This record of achievement. is the result of one of radios most unique organization Totem Broadcasters, a group of twelve large business con- cerns of the Pacific Northwest who have formed themselves into a pro ducing group to arrange and broad cast commercial programs and av- eraging from four to six programs of an hour per week each. A survey completed by the National Associa- tion of Broadcasters showed that among 1000 Watt stations, KOMO for 1927 had the greatest talent cost of any station in America. This cost was $150,000. It is believed, from all indications, that this figure has been greatly increased for 1928.
 Although KOMO is, in no sense, key station of a net work, many of it's programs have been broadcast jointly with other Pacific Northwest stations. KOMO is also associated with the National Broadcasting Co. and it has received from the National Broadcasting Go. networks all of it's major programs.

Inferi0r1ty
Stand Wrong
to1" Women
BY Mrs. WALTER FERGUSON

I have followed the work OF a GER
tain woman columniSt for eighteen
months and during that time have
not read one word in praise OF
women. All her remarks about her
own sex are derogatory. She must
suffer from a strong inferiority COM
pick.
One of the most astounding things
in the world today is the fact that
so many women are ashamed OF
their sex. No wonder We receive
small grace from the hands of many
men. We are in a state of perpet-
ual humility ard wear a constant
apoIogetic attitude. We are women,
and not at all proud Of the fact, 1t
seems.
This, to my notion, is a rotten
state of things. Periodically in his
tory women have gone through an
upheayal of this sort. The girls sup
press their femininity and take
from themselves some charm and
magnetism they never can again re-
gain, while the women cut off their
hair. yell for trousers, and prance
about in a futile effort to cnvince
themselves that they are exactly like
men. Many of them honestly believe
that they have improved themselves.
And where does this sort of thing
generally get us? Positively no.
where. It's sensible to enjoy the
freedoms which were once 50 I'M
Justly denied us. It's pleasant to
know that false modesty and pru-
derry have disappeared and that we
now are permitted to choose our
professions and to shape our desti-
MES, as it were. But it is neither
natural nor sensible that We should
bewail our state Of being and be
ashamed that we are women.
