GOLDEN ACE OF
RADIO AGAIN is
PROMISED FANS
Better Reception Due to
LeSSening of SunSpot
Cycle.

BIZ Ifmcs SpcciGt
NEW YORK, April 18.-Another
golden age Of radio reception. bring
ing to the mind Of the DIX hunter
the halcyon months Of 1922. when
even a little one hundred watt sta
ton could be heard half way across
the continent, is about TO GAVIN.
But there IS a howl and whistle
menace threatening the listener on
the farm So 0. H. Caldwell. editor
of Electronics and Radio Retailing,
and formerly member of the fed
erai radio commission. told the
Western Universities Club at
luncheon meeting in the Hotel Bel
mont here this week.
The promise Of shrieks and howlS
menacing the peace of mind Of the
farmer and his family in their dial
ing for interesting programs lies in
efforts now being made to persuade
the federal radio commission to
make changes which would put
more than one station on present
clear channels serving the rural
areas.
Trouble Forecast
II these changes go through, said
Caldwell. they will set up hetero-
dynes and whistles, howls and
shrieks which Will render those
channels useless for farmers.
Return of the listeners paradise
this year on a visit which probably
will extend through 1881 is due,
Caldwell explained to temporary
subsistence of the influence of the
sun-spot cycle on the circumam-
bient. This cycle, a phenomenon
with which scientists have become
quite familiar, has a period running
from eight to thirteen years, or an
average Of eleven years between
minimums.
Trees Show Cycle
although radio has not been
studied long enough to connect its
cyclic vagaries fully with the sun
spot cycle, the effect of the sun-spot
period on many other things, such
as weather and rainfall, is well eS-
tablished. Records of the old Hud-
sons Bay Company, going back
hundreds of years, have shown that
the seasons of heavy pelts and furs
have recurred regularly every eleven
years, as the animals protected
themselves against the severe win
ters of those seasons.
Trees also show this eleven-year
cycle in their rings. A big oak, cut
down in Connecticut last month,
revealed strikingly heavier rings
every eighth to thirteenth year, in
dicating exceptional moisture or
growing conditions during those
years"

WIRE USED TO CUT
MARBLE IN QUARRY
Strand 1.4OO Feet Long Saws Huge
Slabs From Hillside.

NEW YORK, April ia quarter
inch, three-stranded steel wire, 1,400
feet long, driven by an old four
cylinder automobile engine, is saving
huge slabs of marble from hillside
in the Ozark region Of Arkansas.
Wire saving already has proved
its value in slate quarrying in Penn
sylvania, and this is one of the first
applications Of the method to other
fields, w. M. Weigel, mineral tech
nologist of the Missouri-Pacific rail-
road, told the American Institute of
Mining and Metallurgical Engineers
here.
Sand, handled into the artificial
crevice the wire makes, does the ac-
tual cutting The wire travels twen-
ty feet a second and cuts complete
section from the hill without wear
ing out and breaking. The entire
operation is carried on by one man.

MARION, o., April ia bud

As janitor of the Elite apart

In a more colorlesS calling.
The name of Coffey has appeared

His song offerings are created

During leisure moments, he i'm

The lyrics he huns while plying

duties. Then during leisure time
he writes the score.
He says he never has taken

technique of the piano and most of
the Stringed instruments. AS an

u. S. JUDGE UP
HOLDS USE OF ONE
MAN STREET CARS

Shreveport, La. (ILNS)-Federal
Judge Ben c. Dawkins, in a written
opinion here, enjoined the city of
Shreveport from enforcing old ordi-
nances forbidding the use of one-man
etreet cars on certain lines here. The
courts action followed the filing of
petition by the local traction COM
pany appealing for relief after the
city refused to permit it to operate
one man cars which, the company
claimed, was imperative in view of
serious financial conditions.
answering a contention that many
street car employees would lose their
jobs if one-man cars were permitted,
Judge Dawkins held that, in view
of the present plight financially of
the plaintiff company, if some means
to permit it to continue operation is
not found, it may be forced out of
business, with the termination of all

Showing General Knox
in Diplomatic Lipht

One thing about the World war !:
little or nothing has been said about
the soldiers going hungry. In this
department, at least. the old hard
ships seemed to have been successfully
eliminated. In contrast, one recalls
Washington at Valley Forge.
The plight of the Continental army
became so desperate that Washington
finally sent General Knox and Cap
tain Sergeant to explain their condi-
tion to congress.
1t will be remembered that General
Knox was very generously proper
toned and it happened that Captain
Sergeant was far from wearing tat
ters. One member of congress noted
this and remarked that In spite Of the
tale of starvation and rags he had
seldom noted a gentleman so fat and
one so well dressed.

"for out of respect, the choice was
made Of the only man who had an
extra ounce Of flesh and the only one
who had whole suit of clothes"

Surveyors Work

A geodetic survey is one Wh1ch
covers large areas and takes into ac-
count the fact that the earth has
curved surface. 1t Is usually called
control survey, because it furnishes
geographic positions and other data
for more detailed local surveys. In
ordinary surveying, the earth's curv-
ature Is ignored, and points of equal
elevation above sea level are treated
as being plane. This is satisfactory
for a local survey, but when several
independent local surveys are brought
together their lines are quite apt not
to fit unless each survey has been
made under geodetic control sur
vey.

HIGHER AGE LIMIT
IN SCHOOL FAVORED

Boston.-A proposal to raise the
compulsory school attendance age to
Is years is recommended by a state
legislative committee. Employers are
assured the plan is "good business"
for them.
"Such an advance" the report
says, would provide additional edu-
cational opportunities, enable boys
and girls to acquire higher social
standard and also give to the indus
tries of the commonwealth a more in
telligent and semi-skilled worker,
thereby enabling industry to produce
a larger quantity and better quality
of goods at little or no increase in its
payrolls."

She Picked on Him

The wheels of the divorce mill were
grinding out a heavy grist in court
when young man presented his plea
for a divorce on the grounds that his
wife had been unnecessarily cruel to
him.
Asked to describe the specific cruel
ty by the justice presiding, the libel
ant, in somewhat of an effeminate
voice, declared spiritediy: "She hit
me, she beat me, she hurled missiles
at me-" and so on.
The evidence concluded, the Judge
leaned over to his clerk and in an
aside which was audible to quite a
few others in the courtroom, inquired :
"Is there any request In this libel
for the libelant to resume his maiden

COURT BOOSTS RATES

Washington.-The United States
supreme court ruled that the Balti-
more Street Railway Company is en-
titled to return of 7.44 per cent,
rather than 6.26 per cent, as ordered
by the Maryland public service COM
mission.
The commissions order, the court
said, borders on confiscation and is a
deprivation of property in violation of
the federal constitution. The court
held that allowances for depreciation
should not be based on original costs.
A vigorous dissenting opinion was
made by Associate Justices Brandeis,
Holmes and Stone.

Visible Stars

The Naval observatory says that
the number Of stars IN the whole celes-
tial sphere bright enough to be seen
by the average eye on clear, moon
less night has been estimated to be
between six and seven thousand. As
one-half of this number lies below the
horizon. and haze near the horizon
hides many more, the total number
visible at any one place cannot greatly
exceed $500. The blended light of
many million stars in the Milky way
may be seen, but not the individual
points of light.
Display your loyalty to fellow trade
unionists by demanding union-made
goods and union service.
