Intimate Glimpses of the Valleys Alley

sary Is for him to take pen in hand

a fight Of many. many years, will

The engineer OF In Our Valley

that Hoover be asked % give TIN pen

Valley. 1t would make a souvenir
worth ~treasuring.
Wisconsin delegates to the Valley

They were favorably impressed with
the section, according to reports.

and the flood is definitely past. 1t
Is thought that there will be no
more flood periods in the Valley for
many months - but then, one can't
always tell what the Rio Grande
will do. However. heavy rains in
the section drained by the river are
not anticipated for several months,
and melting SHOWS will not be emp

Is really nothing to cause a rise.
AS for the rain - We don't say

we will say that TT shouldn't ough-

that.
Heavy rains in any of the next
three months will be an unusual
~occrrance. and an inspection OF the
weather bureaus files discloses very
few Instances Of this in the past.

The Once Over
HEATING BY RADIO
By T. I. PHILLIPS
(Copyright, l930, by The Associated Newspapers)

Copyright, 1880, by The Associated Newspapers)
The latest news is that a radio tube may soon re-
place the furnace, parlor stove and kitchen range for
heating purposes. Radio is seen as the heating plant
Of the future. 1t will ultimately give you entertain
ment programs. political speeches. news events. tele-
vision pictures, a hot fire and plain home cooking.
Whole families will be able to keep comfortable by
twisting a dial, and when a man suddenly feels a
little chilled while sitting in a draft during d blizzard
he viii know that something is wrong with his wave
length or b batteries.
Fever tubes will do the business. The room will
be equipped with condenser plates between the walls.
Heat waves will be projected through the human body.
inducing a fever which will make a tenant asleep in a
snowbank think he is having a nap in a Turkish
bath.
II you're cold you Just turn the dial until you get
a rush OF blood to the nead. If the gale is bowling
outside your window and you feel about to develop a
fever you will know that your radio heating system is
all right.
But if you still feel chilly you rap on the set for the
Radio Corporation TO send up more heat.
You may figuratively kindle the fire with Amos n
Andy. build it up with the Goldbergs, IA. 1t with the
gingerale hour and keep it going with symphony or
chestras, Literary Digest programs and political ad-
dresses.
What will the American Of tomorrow do for his ex-
ercise? Nothing used to keep him more active than
the care Of the old-fashioned coal-burning furnace.
When the chill winds blew, science stretched forth its
hand and offered but one instrumental good old
fashioned shovel. When the blizzard howled with
out, you knew the occasion called for more coal not
for more radio appliances.
II the fire went out during the night you had to
get UP in the cold and put in a laborious hour dump
ing the ashes and building a new blaze. 1t was moth
ing that could be done with an outside aerial and a
set Of dry batteries. Keeping the house comfortable
during the winter was an effort. not an amusement.
II you had difficulty heating the home you notified
the coal man, not an electrician.
But soft days are ahead. Metallic walls with con-
denser plates are to take the place Of the full coal
bin; and the axe, shovel, stoker and CRATE handle
are to be combined into an artistic dial combining
the hottest features of each.
The new invention heats the body instead OF the
room. Every person becomes an individual range.
But what the average man will want to know Is
whether, using the fever tubes, he can percolate the
coffee on his shoulders and bake a potato in the hol-
low Of his hand?

willfully. There aren't any words

And there aren't any words to

young man in q broken voice.
The girl sat as II frozen to the

Il DON'T don'ti"
Look at me. Judy. and tell me
you don't"
She tried to look at him. Every
nerve in her body was quivering.
There was so little space between

Judy was taken by surprise, and
her eyes gave Alan a welcome that
made his hand tremble as 1t closed
ove hers. He explained that he had
just walked across from the other
side. having taken his car TO a gar
age for repairs.
It's such a lovely day." he added.
Shall We take a little stroll?"
Il want to sit down" Judy said
pathetically. I'm simply dead
beat"
They strolled across the walk and
sat down. 1t was as warm as sum-
mer; a twilight OF pearl and blue
infolded them gently. The buds on
the trees were almost ready to burst.
Outside the park the lights Of the
traffic were like fireflies.
They sat in silence for quite five
minutes. Judy spoke first.
i saw you and Chummy at lunch
yesterday" she said.

issa said you were at Dickhread's.

"Clarissa enjoyed it. / think. She
won't let me take her about much.

about IL. You won't 20 anywhere
with me. I've asked Dumont out
heaps Of times. and he always has
some excuse"
WHY should YOU spend vour
money on us?" Judy asked. Her
voice was hoarser than usual. II
was talking to Chummy last night.
She ought not to stay with me n
longer. She ought TO find nice rooms
in some better part OF town. She's
not really one OF us. Of course. we
all adore her. but she belongs 10 a
different world. I think you ought
to persuade her to CO."
But I think she Is quite happy.
Of course. that Is, unless YOU don't

"Of course I want her: but I
don't think it's the place for her"
i think you're wrong. Clarissa

Judy suddenly.
