Although unemployment relief is
not mentioned among the seventeen
points set out for legislative action
AT the special session starting July
7, it appeared unlikely today that
this world important topic can be
kept of the program.

It is pointed out that unless the

Indiana will be ineligible for federal
aid to the unemployed. if it is to
be doled under the Hoover plan.
Hoover advocates that federal
relief be given in the form Of long
loans to states.
Might Set Up Corporation
It might be possible for the state
10 set up some quasi official COR
porstion to handle such funds. This
would be brought about by legisla-
tive action. such as has been taken
in the past in creating school and
armory holding companies and the
like. These permit the state to 60

politicians can point with pride 10

a custom still followed in remote
country parishes, to assemble the
whole congregation, particularly the
younger element, under the leader
ship of the beadle and church Off
GERS, and trace from bourn to bourn
the limits of. the parish.
The struggling procession fol-
lowed the line like a pack of hounds
on the scent of a fox. 1t was a
great day for the children. but the
elders, too, had some entertainment,
for when an old mosscovered stone
post was discovered one of them
would pick up likely lad and
bump him so severely against it that
he would always remember it. 1t
was essential that future beadles and
church wardens should be able to
hand on to their successors exact

Old Society of Mariners

Records seem to Indicate that the
corporation of Trinity house, Lon
don, was originally a society Of
English mariners founded by Sir
Thomas Spert with headquarters at
Deptford. says an article in the
Montreal Family Herald. There is
no doubt that it obtained its first
charter from Henry VII in 1914, and
was authorized by Queen Elizabeth
about half a century later to erect
beacons and other marks on the
coast for the guidance of sailors.
Its duties today are concerned with
the management and maintenance
of lighthouses, lightships, beacons
and buoys, and the supervision of
pilots. 1t owns a fleet of 10 yes

special flags, the Masters flag, the
Ensign, the Jack, and Burgee, all of
which bear the four ships symbol

Upholsterer Word That
Has Changed in Meaning

We all understand the ''upholster-

pares covers for furniture and who
Is also an expert at stuffing it. But
this meaning is long leap from it's
early significance, to which, how
ever, it bears figurative relation

Originally the holster" was hid
ing place or covering, as in the
holster used for a pistol, for in
stance. And it was from this con-
nection that the words holster" and
"holstering" gradually came to be
employed to describe the process of
measuring furniture for covers, pre-
pairing the covers, stuffing the fur
niture and therefore hiding it so to
speak, that is, hiding its real self.
Add to this the fact that the man
who stuffed and covered the furni-
ture frequently held it ''up" for sale,
and we have a logical evolution of
the modern word "upholsterer" in
the sense in which it is used to-

Walking "Cane" Had It's
Origin in the Orient

The ferula or staff of fennel wood
was one of the earliest supports
used by elderly persons because it
was long, tough, and light. The des-
ignation of "cane" so generally used
in this country originated in the
Orient, where hollow palms and bam-
boos were naturally used for walk
ing sticks. Pope's Sir Plume prided
himself on the nice conduct of his
clouded cane, while Gay celebrated
in verse the strong cane and the
amber tipped cane. Henry VIII had
one cane garnyshed with sylver
and gilte. with Astronomie upon it."
and another "garnyshed with gclde,
having a perfume in the toppe." An
cient Egyptian walking sticks made
of cherry wood, with carved knobs,
have been discovered. Comedy canes
having heads carved in the grinning
likeness of Punch. Merry Andrew,
and Toby Fillpot still can be found
in the shops. 1t is said that a col
lector of canes in Madison, Neb., has

First Wireless Valve
Was Edison Discovery

Many years ago Edison was ex-
perimenting with electric lamps, try
ing to discover how the blackening
of the inside of the bulbs came
about in those of the old carbon
type. He found that if a plate of
metal was sealed into the bulb and
electrified positively, current passed
through the vacuum from the fila
ment to this plate. He noticed that
the current always travelled from
the filament to the plate; nothing
could make current pass in the
opposite direction.
He thought nothing of the discov-
cry. and no use could be found for
it, for it was many years before
wireless was to be heard of.
Before we can hear anything of
wireless signals the waves must
be rectified. Each wave consists
of a push Of current in one direc-
tion followed by a pull in the other
RectificatiOn means straining out
the pulls and leaving only the
pushes. All early methods Of doing
this were complicated and unsatis-
factory.
Then Prof. J. a. Fleming had an
inspiration. He made the first wire
less valve in which a filament and
plate were placed in a vacuum in
side a glass bulb.
The Edison effect was harnessed,
for the valve would respond only
to the pushes and automatically
eliminated the pulls. But for the
invention Of the valve there would
have been no broadcasting today

Awesome Hjorund Fjord

A short summer cruise among the
fjords of Norway will sometimes
bring the tourist to the Hjorund
ford, twenty-five miles long and
two miles wide in parts. Here he
will see some of the most impress
sive scenery in Europe, for the un-
scaled Sondmore Alps raise their
peaks about the rock-rimmed
waters. Norwegians and English
climbed year after year. gradually
conquering the heights, but the
grandeur is not diminished, and at
twilight. the effect is awesome.
When Norway was visited by the
"Black Death" in the Middle ages,
the entire population of the ford
perished, and the present inhabit-
ants are chiefly descendants of
Scotch immigrants who came to fill
the houses left vacant.

George Washington University
conferred an honorary degree upon
Senator Daniel o. Hastings, of

special exercises were in honor of
