Wrinkle-Proo Shirts Among
Novel Devices Just Patented
Non-Skid Tire and Telephone System,
Which Connects by Voice Alone
Also Claimed by Inventors.
Willis B. Morse of Washington was

Willis B. Morse Of Washington was
awarded patent for an improved
type Of electrical surgical instrument
for removing tonsils, combined
tongue depressor and electrode for
the electro-coagulation OF tonsils. u
The method now followed, 1t is ex-
planned, involves attaching an elec-
trode somewhere on the body, pref
erably inside the mouth, and insert
ing an electric needle against the
tonsil. Part of the tissue is coagu-
lated, and in a few days sloughs
away. In this way several opera
tions are required to remove the
entire tonsil.
In each case, the application states,
two men are employed. the surgeon
and an assistant to keep the tongue
OF the patient depressed so that the
operator can work The combination
Of depressor and electrode, it is
claimed, will make 1t possible for one
man to do the entire Job.
Secret Communication Device.
To Franz Wrede OF Charlottenburg
Germany, was issued a patent for
what the inventor claims Is the one
certain method Of secret communi-
cation-an electric transmitting and
receiving mechanism which are syn
chronized according to a previous
arrangement. Other stations may
pick up the signals, but without the
proper synchronization they have no
meaning. The receiving apparatus
is small so that it may be carried
in the soldiers knapsack and set up
Immediately on the field.
The ordinary shirt achieves new
dignity in the description given in
the application for a patent on a
device to keep it from wrinkling In
exposed places. 1t is described as
"a single unitary portion or plu-
rality Of portions of fabric. united
into a single unitary member. pro-
viding two free edges which, in Gus
tomary construction, are positioned
in relation to the sleeves Of the gar
ment so that such edges will, when
the garment is worn. be at the front
Of the wearer. These edges then
have been made q part Of them OF
secured to them by means of which
they may be retained close together
while the garment Is worn. Gus
tomarily this means Is comprised OF
buttons sewed to or otherwise at
tached to one free edge. and at the
other end openings for the reception
OF such buttons.
Has "Rigidifying'' Process
when the edges are thus but
toned together it Is a we'll known fact
that during the wearing of the shirt
it is a common occurrence that, il
OF the ordinary soft variety, the
bosom Of the shirt due to its plia-
bility will take on all sorts of shapes
distorted from the desired fiat ap-
pearance; a condition which, OF
course, Is undesirable for one who
seeks to be well dressed"
The inventor would overcome this
defect by "rigidifying means" to be
attached to the shirt between the
collar and the vest where it shows.

The non -wrinkling shirt and the
-skidding tire, the telephone sys-
tenn in which connections are made by
shifting gear are among the devices
upon which patents have been issued
during the past few days
The non-skid tire, for which q
patent was granted upon the applica-
ton of Walter Josky of Hamburg,
Germany is an ordinary tire painted
over with "a solution of resin in Or
ganic solvent which becomes a very
sticky material as soon as 1t comes in
contact with water. The motoriSt
carries a small can with him. When
he runs into a rainstorm or an Icy
street he simply paints his tires. The
Wetter the road, according to the
application, the more sticky they be-
come. Besides. the glue-like sub
stance picks up sand forming an
abrasive surface.
| AS soon as the tires become dry the
coating loses its sticky quality, the
application claims.
Washington Inventor.
The patent on the automatic gear
shift was granted to John w. Connors
of Washington The three forward
| shifts, the application claims, require
only one motion Of the shift lever and
the clutch. This puts them in first.
| AS the cars attains the appropriate
| speeds the shifts to second and high
are brought about automatically, with
out further attention on the part Of
the driver The other shifts are
brought into play by speed respon-
sive mechanism"
E. H. Sandleman and Fred G. Filby
| Of London, England, were granted
| a patent on voice operating switch
ing" described as in a telephone
transmission system, means under
control Of voice currents for the trans
mission of an auxiliary preliminary
signal with the commencement Of
| talking and an auxiliary following Sig
nal upon cessation Of talking"
All telephone systems now In use,
whether operated with dial devices or
by switchboard operators, require me-
chanical switching from the sending
to the receiving line, 1t Is stated in
the application. With this device. ap-
parently, the voice itself will set up
| the proper electric impulses to lake
the desired connection.
Patent for Insulating Walls.
A patent was issued to Roy r.
Graves Of Kensington. Md. for q
method Of constructing heat-insulated
walls for houses The method, as de-
scribed. consists essentially OF a dou-
/ hlp u-ol1 covered both SidaS \,
wire mesh and filled up with some
loose insulating material. The mesh
then is given a coating of cement ap-
| piled fOrcefully so that 1t will pene-
trate within the loose insulating ma
terial and tend to keep 1t In place.
| Other insulating devices, the applica-
| ton claims. are almost prohibitively
expensive, although one-half the heat
lost by radiation from buildings passes
| through the ordinary type of wall.

WHEN ACTIONS SPEAK
LOUDER THAN WORDS
By Hans Rasmussen

In the commissioners proceed
ings, printed last week, a few more
names appeared of men who had
received their pay for service rem
dered as special deputies at the
time Sheriff Madsen marched his
gun-carrying and water-squiuting
brigade against the farmers. The
two left-overs are Chas. Erman-
finger ard Martin Nelson, the UNI
dertaker.
When you look over these pro-
ceedings you will notice that not
a word of protest has been raised
by any of the county commission
ers against paying of these claims,
which, with those paid month be-
fore, amount to quite sum.
If a county commissioner is not
in harmony with problems coming
up before the board, he has the
right to register his protest and
have it printed in the proceedings
so people may know just what
stand he has taken. He has the
right to vote "nO" on any claim
presented, and have his vote re
corded.
Not one word can be found II
the commissioners proceeding
showing that any one of the com
missioners had the slightest OBJ
lection TO farmers being met wit
loaded guns, chemicals and water
By allowing the claims to go thru
all three commissioners put theil
, OK on Sheriff Madsen's transac-
! tions. Although some of them ar
now doing a lot of explaining TO
reelection purposes, the fact re
mains that they paid the bills.
