They May Like It

Citizens Of Camden, N. J, take great pride. apparently.
In the fact that it has mounted in the tower Of its city
hall a loud-speaker which can be heard for five miles.
Describing this modern marvel. Popular Science
Monthly says:
AT twelve o'clock noon the chimes of Big Ben ring
out-not from the English towers of Westminster, where
the famous bell swings, but from the city hall. The tone
OF its English prototype is reproduced without a bell at
all, through an electric device that initiates bell sounds.
THE top of the city hall is a veritab!e loudspeaker
tower. Through it's 100 dynamic speakers not only the
ringing of bells, but speeches and monograph records
are broadcast over the city. They can be heard for q
distance of five miles. So great is the vibration of air
when the speakers are going that a visitors clothes flap
in time to the music. and entering the tower containing
the strongly vibrating air is like walking through mud.
Beneath the loudspeakers, which are invisible from
the street. is a control room. Here are microphones
where a speechmaker may address the city; electric phon-'
ographs OH which may be played records of Belgian
chimes. for ampnfication through the loudspeaker tower;
and the mysterious wooden box containing the electric
mechanism for duplicating the sound of Big Ben.
ITO place the speakers so that all of the sound would
not be DETECTED down into the streets Immediately around
the tower was a difficult problem in acoustics, requiring
months Of experiment."
Camdenites doubtless brag about this equipment but it
would seem rather a difficult thing to live with. Inag-
inc a Camden mother just getting q fretting child to
sleep when the community loud-speaker bats forth with
THE Kings Horses or some other equally idiotic piece.
Imagine having to listen to a political speech whether
you wanted to or not and on a subject about which you
had decided opinions Of your own. Think how it must
handicap so gentle an art as that of making love. Pic
ture the ardent swain about to whisper the important
words into a maidens receptive ear when the loud-speaker
turns loose a warning on the pers of marriage.
The thing is all right for Camden, N. J., If the people
there like 1t, but we hope a popular vote will be taken If
the suggestion is made that one be installed, say in the
proposed new capitol building.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Leather Poisoning

Question: M. K. writes: II am a
shoe worker, and my hands continual
ly become cracked and sore. Doctors
have diagnosed it as leather poison
ing" and say it cannot be cured. l use
benzine, ether, etc, to clean shoes,
and wonder if this has something to
do with it,"
Answer: The cracking Of your
hands is probably due to loss of the
natural oil from the use of the ether
and benzine. Try soaking the hands
in hot EPSON salts baths twice a week,
Is to 20 minutes at a time. Follow
this by rubbing with olive oil. The
oil should be used on the hands every
day afte- contact with ether, benzine
or other fat solvents. If possible, use
rubber gloves while engaged in this
work.

but I do not recommend the form used
in medicines. There is a slight
amount of arsenic in carrots when
used unpeeied. Use a properly bal

the medicinal arsenic, and have no
bad results.

Beauty Becoming Important

Thirty years ago H. G. Wells predicted that "thirt,
years from now the ordinary mar will be a mechanic
That was IN the day Of horses, when not a man in q
thousand knew the rudiments Of machinery. But to-
day almost every householder has a practical knowledge
Of gas engines. electric refrigeration. radio and electric
wiring.
Now comes Ernest Eberhard. editor of an architectural
magazine. to assert that 30 years from now every business
man will be an artist. To bolster his prediction, the
truth or falsity Of which cannot be proved now, he as
serts that the truly successful business man of today
must have a considerable degree Of artistic appreciation
and understanding.
The past generation has been a period of intensive in.
venting and building Of new machines. household ap'
planes. steel-framed buildings and public works. Be-
cause Of practical necessity Of supplying these thing:
quickly, their possibilities for beauty were largely over.
looked. But today business is learning that beauty ha.
a high sales value. Eberhard points out.
The machine man has invited the artist into
conference just as the ordinary man once invited
the machine man into conference. Advertising
had to be made beautiful. and hundreds of
thousands OF dollars are being spent for art of
notable quality. And there are now specialists in
making products and machines beautiful. Why?
Because the public Is coming to prefer the beau
tiful.
Every automobile is sold as much on its
beauty as on efficiency. The colored kitchen
utensil, we'll designed. outsells its more homely,
A6fab companion. People today may not be con-
scious Of the lack Of beauty in a product. but
they are certainly conscious of its presence and
they have proved that they will buy on the appeal
of beauty.
This all means that soon a new generation
will be In our midst, a generation with a fine
conception Of art and beauty, a conception so fine
n that it unquestionably will pervade all business.
And SO, the business man brought up in this at
moSphere must Of necessity himself be an artist
If he IS to survive the stern competition of q
business world actuated by beauty"
At least one important fact in the American scheme Of
things lends truth to this forecast. This is the dom
ination of nearly all American markets by women pur-
chasers. It may seem absurd, but the probabilities are
that women probably buy more mems shirts than do
men. When it comes to the various forms of household
equipment. her judgment usually obtains greater recog-
milton than does that Of her menfolk.
And there is no question Of the appeal which beauty
makes to women. The fact that they contribute some
thing like a billion dollars a year to the pockets of beauty
specialists and the manufacturers of identifying articles
proves that.

1927 Loans

Reports by the federal government indicate that 1927
loans were made by the department of agriculture to
North Dakota farmers who needed assistance as a re-
suit of the drouth.
Al the end Of the present crop year the government
will send its agents into the field to collect those loans
and it is the sincere hope of everyone in the country
that the farmers of North Dakota, as well as those else
where in the nation, will find it easy to pay in full and
have q competence left for themselves besides.
The making of these loans was a praiseworthy thing
for it enabled many farmers to keep their heads above
water a while longer and to hang on. waiting for a turn
in their affairs which will open for them the road to
prosperity and contentment. But. after all, it was only
a makeshift. The thing which the farmer needs most Of
all is more for the products which he raises. If a solution
is found for the problem of how to translate the things
he produces into an adequate financial return. the ne
cessity for such loans in the future will be greatly re.
duced and everyone will benefit.
That New York ~gangster known as Legs Diamond
was shot again but still is alive. Maybe he is just prov
ing that Diamonds are really hard.
There Is one thing about the business depression, fewer
persons are being killed at grade crossings this year. May
be the whoopee era had a good deal to do with accident
statistics.

Downward Blow Is
Necessary TO Pitch

To put baekspin on a ball. it is
necessary that the ball be hit a
crisp downward blow, taking turf
after the ball has been sent On its

the right foot. For this shot Roland
Mackenzie uses a slightly more
open stance with the heels just a
few inches apart. He pivots very
little and keeps his hands close To
