GIRL HERE WINS
 NATIONAL PRIZE
Frances Orsen Writes Short Essay on Airplanes
 in Alaska

Frances Orsen, eighth grade pupil in the Juneau elementary public school, is one of nine national first-prize winners in the Our States Project" contest conducted by Current Events, publication issued by the American Education Press and circulated among all the public schools of the United States and it's possessions.
 Miss Orsen's subject was Air planes in Alaska" It was submitted last month and reads as follows:
 "The increasing use of airplanes is an important current event" in Alaska. Airplanes were only recently introduced at Juneau, but they have met instant favor for transporta- ton of both passengers and mer- chandise. Two airplane companies have been formed. One is the Pio- neer Airways and the other is the Alaska Washington Airways. Planes of both companies make trips to Seattle, Wash, and back and to nearby towns. They are kept in constant use by business men and for pleasure trips. There have been airplanes up near Fairbanks, but this is really the first time that airplanes have been stationed in Juneau"

radio equipment.
 For the picture itself, the trans mitting apparatus consists of a film protector of the shutterless type, which has been found to be ideal because an image can be projected direct from a scanning disk.
 In addition to the proJector, sev- eral lenses are required to inten- sify the beam of light, which like that for the sound track, passes through the film and falls upon a photocelectric cell. So that the pie ture will be transmitted in the proper sequence, a scanning disk similar to that for regular tele- vision, is required.
 Otherwise transmission and re- ception are not much different from a directly scanned living ob- ject.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 27.- One of the richest girls in America who eloped to escape the fuss and feathers" of big wedding soon will introduce to Washington society one of the prettiest girls in old Vir- ginia.
 Margo Couzens Chewing, daugh- ter of wealthy Senator Couzens, who startled capital society last February by sudd enly marrying William Jeffries Chewing, jr., a bank clerk, will sponsor the debut of her husbands cousin, Carol Herndon of Suffolk. ! What she ran away from her. self-the sparkling but sometimes fatiguing social round-the young heiress now arranges for her hus- bands charming young cousin.
 Mrs. Chewing, only l9, has con- tinued her social activities to some extent since her marriage, but only as the mood prompted her. The young couple has been occupying
 the palatial Couzens home in Washington while the senator and his wife have been at their Detroit home.
 An ardent sportswoman, Mrs. Chewning does a great deal of rid ing and takes part in many horse shows. Under her wing Miss Henr- don is assured debut fitting her youth and beauty.
 The former Margo Couzens was always so interested in horses and art that the family could not per- suade her to have debut, though most wealthy girls look forward to such an event almost from their cradles.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-Tele-talkies, sound movies sent py radio, are being reproduced on a. large screen in London theatre.
 Transmitted from the laborator ies of John L. Baird, British tele- vision pioneer, the pictures are both seen and heard in the Coli scum Theare, many blocks away
 The experiments, which are a part of a regular television pro gram, have as their object the de velopment of apparatus which will make it possible to transmit tele- talkies of topical news events as they occur. Twelve months ago MT. Balrd demonstrated at his laboratories |the radio transmission of a talking film with small home televlsor The next natural step was the the atre, with a paying audience. Transmission of the sound movie film is somewhat simpler than straight television, where an object is radio photographed" direct and the image sent over the air. For the tele-talkie the film is run through the television transmitter and both the sound and the picture are sent out.
 In his early investigations Baird found that the transmission of silent films provided little interest But with the tele-talkie the speech aided the picture as much as did the picture the sound, the combina- ton being superior in the opinion

of the experts to one or the other separately.
 Some of the problems of straight television are simplied in the case of tele-talkie. For example, the question of obtaining sufficient light to activate a photo-electric cell is almost non-existent.
 The talking film, like that for the movies, has on one edge ladder like band of photographed lights and shadows, accompanying the image The sound is reproduced by projecting a beam of light through this voice track upon photo-cell.
 As the film moves past the beam, it causes the light to fluctuate, the photo-cell responding by producing a modulated current. This is sup piled to a loud speaker through

Preserving AutoRraphs

To make indelble autographs that
are written in pencil, the bureau Of
standards suggests spraying with the
fxative used by artists for preventing
the smudglng Of crayon and charcoal
drawings. The fixative Is a weak
solution of bleached shellac in alcohol.
The color Is so pale and the film Of
shellac left on the paper Is so thin
that 1t cannot be noticed. BE care
full not to close the book or turn the
pages before the alcohol evaporates
and the shellac loses its tackiness.
Artists supply houses sell cheap
tin sprayer, but an old atomlzer for
spraying the throat can be used. The
solution should be well rlnsed out Of
the tubes with alcohol II you wish to
use the atOmizer again.

as there is now The president Of the

And After All, the Trip
Abroad May Be Put OFF

They are enthusiastic over the pros
pect of trip abroad. But there are
problems. Mother wants to go tour
list class on large, fast liner, but
father holds out for a one-cabin boat.
He feels that there the honor of the
family can be upheld. Grandpapa
never went other than first class.
Mother thinks 1t would be nice to
make tour including France, Italy.
Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, Hol-
land and the British isles. But father
Is for staying In Paris and London.
He reminds mother how tired she gets
when travelling. Besides, Paris will
be good for little Mary's French.
Mother, however, politely reminds ia
Their that he is going only as her
and little Mary guest, and therefore
his views are not particularly import
ant
Then there are the problems of the
canary and the puppy. Anyone, of
course, will take the canary, but the
puppy is more difficult. 1t would be
shame to send him to canine
boarding house for six weeks, where
he might be unhappy. Perhaps If
they hint to the Browns. The Browns
haven't so much that puppy could
destroy.
And little Johnny. 1t Is SO hard to
explain to him that he Is too young
to make the trip and that he will be
much happier with grandmama. He
weeps each time it Is mentioned and
begs to be taken along.
OF course, father must make ar
engagements to leave his business for
six weeks, and something must be
done about the house and storing the
silver and having some one cut the
grass and water the flowers, and fa-
Their and mother had better make
over their wills before they leave In
case anything should happen.
With so many problems 1t seems
hardly worth the trouble. But, after
all, they may not go. 1t is still just
possible that mother and little Mary
will not win the $1,000 first prize in
the slogan contest which is to pay the
expenses Of the trlp.-Baltimore Sun,

Put Il Up TO Her

The trend toward longer, fuller
skirts caused Lady Hamilton to re-
mark:
"Strange to say, IT Is the men who
are behind the movement. l incline to
the opinion that while they may enjoy
the attire of the modern flapper, they
do not approve Of prevailing modes
for wife and sister.
"A fashlonably dressed lady was
towing her husband through one of
London's smart shops. Her scant frock
literally showed good form and more
than once the man clenched his fists
impotently as some male turned and
stared rudely.
Suddenly the wife paused before
some stunningly dressed models and
exclaimed:
"'John, l positively ought to have
more clothes!
"'Tll say you ought chortled hubby,
and I'll buy them for you II you'll
wear them"

Worlds Maximum Population

Prof Robert X. Kuczinskl OF Ber.
lin, one OF the recognized authorities,
has stated that, assuming that there
are 15,000000,0O0 acres Of arabic land
and that IS acres on the average are
sufficient to support an individual, the
maximum population Of the world
would have to be placed ut less than
10,000,000,000. "Eyen allowing for the
conceivable advances in technique, and
assuming that all human effort will
be directed to the maintenance Of
maximum number OF people" he says,
ut seems impossible that the earth
could sustain more than six times It's
present population, or about 1900
100000 people,"
