new word, RADIOTRICIAN. For

the public bears the same relation
to radio that the electrician bears to
electricity and electrical instruments
and equipment. Through intense
study, Mr.. Keller has mastered the
underlying principles of radio, this
strange and newly discovered power
and the intricate and delicate instru-
nsents that radio reception involves.
Every radio set is certain to need
this service sooner or later. Often
much pleasure is lost and great vex-
alton endured by reason of some
slight maladjustment of the set, or
through some fault in its installa-
ton. You should not tamper with

done his full share toward every
to the progress and development Of
the city. He has been one of the
movement and enterprise that looked
most generous citizens, employing
his means in every worthy cause, but
prospecting in spite of innumerable
benefactions.
So today, after the storm of three
decades, the ups and downs of COM
mercial pursuits, he stands as the
foremost citizen of the town, with
large family, every member Of
whom is making a mark in some high
calling and living up to the best ira

1t might be of interest to our many
readers, (some of whom are strang-

thing of the lines and brands fea-

Among these we might mention Hart,
Schaffner & Marx Clothes for young

young; Printzess suits, coats and
dresses for women and misses; Ed

men; Dobbs hats for men; Fawne's

is restored to natural functioning.
Hair after the permanent wave
process is nearly restored to it's
natural conditions and responds
thereafter to the natural heat of the
body and natural moisture of the
atmosphere. On an extremely dry
day damp brush will increase the
curl instead of taking it out. These
things all go to prove that nature
will assist the permanent wave"
1t is openly admitted by skin spec
ialists that activity of the body lends
brightness to the face and makes one
appear young, still there are signs of
age that appear even with healthy,

give-away lines and flabby muscles
are reTedied. The treatment chosen
by the Nannett Beauty Shoppe is the
one which is the best suited for each

Hanoums voice was deep, grave, dignihed.

And the All-Seeing stepped aside for Dolly
to enter the room, where he, with the aid Of
the spirits Of the dead, unveiled the mysteries.
The other two settled back to wait. The
girl in the rocker was big-eyed with excitement.
A wedding trip at Atlantic City is pretty
exciting at any age. But at l9. when you
love some one as Cathie loved Jim, and when
every hour is a golden delight, it makes your
cheeks pinker than usual, and your red mouth
always about to break into a smile. This
coming to q fortune teller was an adventure.
Jim had gone of to talk to old Mr.. Wander
grin. So she started walking. And as she
walked she turned over and over in her mind
the offer Mr.. Vandergriff was making her Jim.
Would he take it, and go away up into the
Canadian woods? And then she saw the for
tune teller's sign, and just decided to come in
and see If he would say anything about 1t.
People said these men really knew. Maybe
HanOum would tell her something she could
repeat to Jim, which would convince him that
a man should take these chances, and that his
wife didn't mind roughing it In wilderness.

friends and enemies agreed that she bad great
power over Carter (who wasn't distinguished
for being strong -minded) and had more than
once routed ambitious ladies who had thought
themselves practically at the altar steps.
So you see now what Mrs Reggie's problem
was. Should she go out to Reno and divorce
Reggie? He would let her, because he always
gave her everything that she wanted. And
should she then, bold and beautiful, and per-
haps little clnging and fearful, present herself
to .Carter-free and waiting for him to make
good all the promises he had murmured under
the great white moon in the South Of France,
or under cover of Markets orchestra at Pierres?
But what about Carter's wife? There is such
an advantage In actually being the wife. Mrs.
Reggie went cold with the fear that Carter's
wife wouldn't let him go. That Carter wouldn't
make her let him go. No use to try pinning
him down now. Men didn't like that. She
knew Carter. But maybe It was worth the
chance Of the divorce? He did care for her
now. But what if his wife L? And then
what could Mrs. Reggie do e. ?
Well, you can see that she was confused and

Fifteen minutes later Dolly came out from

would seem. While the impaSsive Hanoum
beckons Cathie into his sanctuary you may
just as well follow Dolly.

way back to her room led her through

Sandy was sprawling on the tumbled bed,
dealing himself poker hands, when Dolly
burst in.
Look, Sandy I'm telling you. That Cleve-
land job is out. Nothing doing. 1 won't
try it. Not for anything!"
Yeah? Lose your nerve again, eh? What's
biting YOU anyhow? Some sweet-faced old
lady adopted you because you look like her
little Minny, who died the first year Of the
Civil War, 1 suppose, and you don't need
money no n1ore?"

my head for a change. See? just been
down on the Boardwalk to Hanoum. And
YOU can't laugh of what he says, because

Unexpectedly, the cold finger of fear touched
Sandy, too All this talk of 10 years in Jail
wasn't healthy.
For an hour they talked it out And at
the end of the hour the emeralds of Mrs.
Rice were safe from an inside robbery, for a
while at least Though probably that lady,
quite unaware would never be grateful to
Hanoum the All-seeing.
About this same time Mrs. Reggie Banks,

CATHOLIC HOSPITAL
LEADERS ASSEMBLE
Raising of Educational STAN
dards of Stats and Nurses
Is Set as Keynote.
The raising of educational standards

The raising of educational standards
of hospital STATS and schools of nurs-
ing was established as the keynote Of
the fifteenth annual convention of the
Catholic Hospital Association a6 the
United States and C@nada, which
opened a four day session at Catholic
University this morning.
The sessions themselves were begun
with solemn pontif1cal mass in the
Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
and of which Most Rev. Pietro Puma
soni-Biondi, apostolic delegate, was
celebrant In the opening session,
which was held in Maloney auditorium,
under the Craftsmanship of Rev. AL
phonse M. Schwitalla, dean of the st.
Louis University School of Medicine and
of the organization for the coming year
and its history was stressed in an adj
dress.
Three major undertakings were rec
commended as the associations program
for the coming year by Father Schwi-
ITALIA. A study OF hospital finances with
respect to cost of medical care, sur
vey of the Catholic schools of nursing
as institutions for learning for both lay
and sister nurses and study OF the
religious vocation to the various orders
and congregations, with a view to as
certaining the supply of novitiates who
would be available for hospital work,
were the three recommendations.
In recommending the hospital finance
study, Father Schwitalla cited the
Catholic hospitals convictions that, be-
cause they have the services of sister
nurses, without customary salary ex-
penditures, they are able to accomplish
more than some other institutions for
the same outlay. He admitted, however,
that students of hospital finances are
not always able to agree with his belief
and asserted that this implied criti-
cism" demands a thorough study of all
facts involved He denied that hospi-
tai cost is the paramount issue, con-
tending instead that the improvement
of hospital care by raising the stand
ards OF education for the institution
staff is the primary problem.

RECORDS READ
IN HEDRICK CASE
Minutes Of Supervisors Meetings
on Water Installation
Produced.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP,
STAFF Correspondent Of The Star.

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT
HOUSE, September 2.--William H
Duncan, clerk of the court, was the
first witness called by the prosecution
today in the impeachment proceedings
against Supervisor B. M. Hedrick of
Arlington district. The proceedings
were brought by the organized women
voters of Arlington County who
alleged irregularities in the installation
of water and sewers in Waycroft sub
division, which Is owned by the Arling-
ton Investment Corporation, of which
Hedrick is managing director.
Reading Of Records.
Duncan's testimony was restricted to
the reading of the records of certain
meetings of the Board of County Super
visorS at which the question of a Way
croft water and sewer installation was
brought up.
The first of these occurred on April
Is, 1929, when the minutes of the board
showed that the taxpayers of Waycroft
indicated their desire for water and
that the county engineer was author
lied to design the proposed system and
supervise its construction, provided the
taxpayers pay a sum that the engineer
deems sufficient"
Another reference showed that on
December 10. 1929, 1T appears that
the board has installed water and
sewers in Waycroft subdivision and that
payment has not been made" This
matter, according to the records, was
referred to the boards counsel for the
necessary action.
Another of the records showed that
on April II, 1880, counsel for the Airing
ton Investment Corporation appeared
before the board of county supervisors
with notes totaling $9.175.78 to cover
the costs of these installations, that
the notes were payable 30 days after
date, and that Supervisors Edward
Duncan and e. G. Turnburke voted to
accept the notes, Hedrick not voting.
Judge Browning Sitting.
The case is being heard by Judge
Alexander r. Browning of Orange, who
was designated by Gov. Pollard to act
IN the place of Judge Walter r. Nc
earthly, who presides over the local
circuit. Attorneys for the State are
commemorative Attorney William C.
Cloth and Burnett Miller of CHlpeper,
who was employed by the organized
women voters to assist In the prosecu-
tion Hedrick is being defended by
Commemorative Attorney Wilson M.
Farr of Fairfax County, and Capt.
Crandal Mackey.
While a number of technical queS-
tons had to be settled before the taking
of testimony began, thereby delaying
the proceedings to some extent, IL is
hoped by both sides that the cases may
be concluded today.
