 made even more distinct by means
 ground lenses to sharpen and inten- sify each light flash given off by a "g1ow discharge lamp which re- ceives these electric impulses. It is all a highly complicated,

 wire television is from the final,

 What Wires Carry.
 Two of the eight pairs of lines carry the teIevision image im- pulses each way. two take the ac- companying speech, one is used for synchronizing the two sets, two are the service wires over
 which orders are transmitted for the operation of the outfit. and the eighth pair is kept ready for

 These eight pairs could be re-

 Ut would be great for lovers. !, Of course, they would lave to be in New York, and would have to take tEeir places in the only television tOoths available. One is back of the auditorium in the building the Bell telephone Laboratories, the other Is hone & Telegraph Company, about two and half miles distant.
 The special booth in which each sits is only fa.ntly aglow with a hreenish yellow light. Tn front of each is a small sign over an orange led background, Watch This Space for Television Image" while from directly in front and overhead 8 beam of rurpie light is directed on the face.
 On each side and above Is a series of 'electric eyes" A micro phone and loudspeaker take the place of the regular telephone trans- hitter and receiver.
 While each sits waiting Tor the call to be completed, and wondering what will come next. television en- gineers are making the necessary ad- justments at each end. arranging the apparatus In each booth to send and receive a visible and recognizable image.
 All set, the call is completed, the two persons see each others image and begin to talk. The image of each appears to he about 10 feet away and about eight inches square although 1t IS actually two Inches square and quite close. The voices seem to come out of the images. so that ca ch persons finds himself talking directly to the image.
 While each talks, the process of two-way 'television goes on by means of two discs in each booth. One disc above ''scans'' the face before 1t with a purple beam of light, while the other disc below helps reproduce the image of the face at the other end of the wire. Both discs are kept in perfect synchronism by special motors.

REPORT Of ARIZONA
INDUSTRIAL COM.

The fifth annual report Of
the Arizona Industrial COM
mission, showing the COM
mission is doing slightly
more than 70 per cent of the
compensation insurance
business in the state, was
laid on the desk of Governor
Geo. w. P. Hunt this week.
The report, based on a re-
cent survey of all activities
of the Commission by Prof.
A. H. Mowbray, head of the
insurance department of the
University of California, dis
closed the commission is
writing compensation insur-
ance at cost, and that the
overhead expense of the
commission is less than 7
per cent.
Mowbray survey report,
which is part of the annual
report to the governor, finds
the commission in sound
financial condition."
That the commission sis
prompt and fair in settle
ment Of the claims incurred
under its policies;" that
rates are proportional to
the risks assumed, applied
without discrimination ;"
adequate records are we'll
and accurately kept" and
that management of the
compensation fund of the
state is marked by econo-
my and efficiency.''
The report shows more
than $500 new injury cases
were handled during the
past year; that the Arizona
state fund has grown during
the slightly more than five
years since its creation un-
til today it is the fourth lar
gest of the competitive state
funds in the United States
and that the Arizona fund
has the lowest overhead eX-
pense both in total and on a
percentage basis of any of
the largest funds.
Total assets of the COM
mission are given as $4,219,-
764.03.
During the past year, the
report shows, a total of ST.
727,542.06 was disbursed
either in current benefits or
to the several reserve funds
such as catastrophe, hospital
and benefit reserve for ac-
cidents already incurred and
being paid upon.
The loss reserve, as of
August 20, $2,798,97O.33 to
take care af the payments
to disabled men or their de-
pendents on awards which
have already been made, is
found to be most satisfy

Assets of the commission,
as listed by a recent audit of
the compensation fund by

everybody tells an editor how to run news

PLAN TO FEED THE HUNGRY

In other coulmn Of this issue will be
found plan of the Legion post at Chandler to
plant winter garden for the purpose Of help
those in need of food the coming winter. This
is an excellent idea and one that should be
adopted in every community where winter
gardens can be raised. The enterprise could be
made self-supporting by the sale of the surplus
garden truck and the money used for the pur-
chase of groceries for those in destitude circum-
stances.
There is a large amount of idle land in this
town which could be used, which the owner
would undOubtly donate the use of free.

Mentally he has advanced to the point Of ac-
tive looking about In q new situation, Of look

expressions.
After five months In the world, the infant
initiates friendly and angry facial expressions.
II he loses q toy, he looks for Il and tho
plaything Is taken from him, he exhibits .
defense reaction m protest. His increased
bodily control permits him to turn from back
to side and TO grasp an object In view with
one hand
Sitting with support and the ability to dis

are achievements at months. Showing dis
pleasure at unsuccessful grasping and initiating
sounds are other characteristics Of behavior

The T-month-old child begins crawling

expressions with his own little gestures Of rage
or friendlineSs which show the grtmaceS are
not . mere imitation.
CRAWLING and sitting alone are charac-
teristics Of physical development Of the
average infant at months. One sign
Of his developing mentality Is revealed By the
child's commencing TO choose his toys instead
Of accepting without choice the one presented
TO his attention. II the chosen toy Is removed,
the child shows signs Of diSpleasure and per-
sists In his mood for while thereafter.
At 8 months the infant Is so aloof from
strangers that he must become acquainted be-
fore he extends his usual greetings. He also
tries to arouse the attention of adults upon
occasion and shows that he understands simple
gestures made to him. His mental activity Is
evidenced by curiosity to see hidden object
For the 10-meRth-old baby, Prof. BUTLER
has devised q simple memory test. A toy, con-
siSttng Of bali and box, given the child
to play with for five minutes. This was then
taken away and the box returned alter 80
seconds with the bali missing. II the child
remembers he locks for the BAH and shows
surprise because it is gone. At 10 months the
child Is able to stand with support.
At the end Of IL months the child Il mem
tally advanced to the point OF pulling an OBJ
1ect from the floor by the string which moors
the toy to his cradle. He has learned to be
afraid Of unfamiliar things and initiates
