She majored in music during her four college years, studied under Mime Schu- mann Heink on. a scholarship, studied at the Cincinnati Conser- vatory of Music, and is in her fourth year at the Curtis Institute of Music In Philadelphia, where she went as a scholarship student on the recommendation of Fritz Reiner, noted maestro.

One of the most remarkable feature
of the move to the State. War an .
Navy Building was the job done by tht
cable men. A 100-pair cable wa
pulled into the subbaSement OF the
building from a manhole in the White
House grounds to take care of the.
stations in the White House proper and
the few stations left in the Executive.
Offices A 400-pair cable was run
from the subbasement to the new
switchboard room on the second floor
of the building. To this cable was
tapped on the 100-pair cable from the
White House and a 200-pair cable
which was run 10 the State. War and
Navy main frame room in the sub
basement.
At this point was picked up the
underground feeder cable for trunk
and tie lines and for the various pri-
vate lines associated with the White
House telephone service Besides these
cables two 50-pair cables we're in
stalled to serve the press rooms and
the Executive Office clerical force at
the new location. The cross-connec-
ton box in the new location, as well
as the new switchboard and other
equipment, was installed In accord
ance with standard specifications.

was accomplished. Even the wood

Francisco and Toxic, now spanned by
radio phone, is more than 5000 miles.
Mr.. Coolidge was the first Presi-
dent to open phone service with for
eign country. Back in october IL.
1928, the New World President and
an Old World ruler, King Alfonso OF
Spain, chatted together regarding the
future peace of the world and ex-
changed fluctuations. During the novel
diplomatic tete-a-tete each executive
was comfortably seated in his own
capital city, Mr.. Coolidge in Wash
ington and King Alfonso in Madrid.
They spoke together in ordinary con-
versational tones while a 5,000-mile
telephone circuit between the two
capitals brought the respective heads
of their governments to within frac-
ton Of seconds distance apart, vo-
cally speaking. King Alfonso. it is
interesting to note, spoke perfect Eng
lish.
On April 3, 1890, Mr. Hoover in
augurated radio-telephone service to
South America. Seated in the cabinet

with the Presidents of Chile and Hun

their respective countries. In addi-
ton, conversations were exchanged
among various dignitaries of Chile,
Uruguay and Argentina.
This newly inaugurated radio chan
mel, which spanned roughly $500
miles between New York and Buenos
Aires, became a mammoth trunk line
The long lines department of the Bell
company established the special in
stallation necessary. Short wave sta
tions in Schenectady, Pittsburgh and
New York City circulated the proceed
ings in Europe and Asia. Thus both
hemispheres we're able to hear this
service extension from one continent
to another.
WHENEVER Presidents go on their
vacations it is invariably neces-
sary to have special telephone equip
ment Installed for their convenience

Of them remaining on the Job all
night. Repairmen, cablemen, switch
board men and installers soon began
to function as well-organiZed unit,
carrying out the orders of their
superiors. Supplies and equipment
were already on the way from the
storerooms and in less than two hours
after the first alarm sounded service
on all eight of the White House central
trunk lines was established.
COMDR. JOEL r. BOONE. official
~ White House physician, Ghad his
Office on the ground floor. Here were
set up the eight instruments for the
trunk lines. Twisted pair wires were
strung through corridors and halls to
a cross connection box. the cable OF
which terminated in the switchboard
room in the basement of the Executive
Offices. Water was ankle deep in this
room and the smoke oppreSsively
thick. Nevertheless. connections were
made with the underground feeder
cable at this point and the first step

for the Presidents official household.
With outside service established. the
telephone men concentrated their
efforts toward the installation OF a
two-position switchboard in DR.. Boone's
office. Material and equipment were
available without delay. A 200-pair
cable was run across the lawn from
the Executive Offices to the White
House proper and in through a win
dow to a cross-connection box which
was being hurriedly constructed. All
night long the work continued at
feverish pace, so that by o'clock
Christmas morning the switchboard
was ready for service, with all lines
working perfectly. Nothing was make
shift about the completed job with the
exception of the temporary cable
coming in through the window. The
lob looked like an installation meant
to serve for years.
About Z o'clock on Christmas morn
ing, as President Hoover passed the
improvised switchboard. room on his
way to his daily madeline ball game,
he commented on the remarkable pro-
RT6cS Lklc IClCp1Ao44C AACA "SAS AAe-1>Ao'
But it was not until two hours later,
when he picked up one Of the White
House telephones, that he realized
that the entire service had been COM
pletely restored and had been working
normally since o'clock.
During most administrations, break
fast at the White House Is an affair
coveted by leading political giants and
distinguished men and women. No
wonder then, that the phone men were
thrilled by invitations not only to
breakfast, but to Christmas dinner as
well. Mrs. Hoover sensed the fact that
the workers we're missing out on their
Yuletide celebrations at home and she
made the men feel that she appreci-
ated the sacrifices they were making.
On Thursday afternoon. the day after
Christmas, it was decided that the
Executive Offices would have to be
moved to temporary quarters in the
State, War and Navy Building, just
west Of the White House grounds.
Phone officials we're asked if they could
possibly have the service ready at the
new location by Saturday morning.
Early Saturday morning, when the
White House operators arrived for
duty, they found o new switchboard

maintain at least one secretary at the
Executive Mansion in Washington.
At all times he must keep in close
touch with the Chief Executive
Therefore, in many instances an en-
tirely new communication system must
be set up between the actual, and the
Summer White House.
The installation Of this is old stuff
to the phone company's field workers
Mr.. Coolidge saw to that. The fact
that he was probably the greatest
vacation President We have ever had,
utilizing some five Summer White
Houses all told, meant that the phone
company had to build five separate
telephone networks between vacation
spots and Washington. Those at
Swampscott, the Adirondacks and the
Black Hills were perhaps the most
elaborate.
Mr.. Hoover followed the same gen.
eral procedure. Two circuits of copper
wire were strung for a distance of
about 80 miles from Orange. Va, to
the head waters of the Rapidan,
where his camp was situated More
over, in connection with this, several
miles of new pole line had to be built
so as to connect with an existing pole
line.
As for President Roosevelt, special
lines have already been set up for his
emergency use between Washington
and Hyde Park and also between
Washington and Warm Springs.
Then, too, as an emergency measure,
the Chief Executive customarily, on
all his recreation excursions, follows
the practice of taking with him an
operator who assumes charge OF all
telephone and telegraph communica-
tions.
There has been telephone service
at the White House since short time
after the first exchange was opened
in Washington, more than 81 years
ago. During the administrations OF
Presidents Hayes and Cleveland there
was only one line and it was said
that the executives rarely ever talked
over it. If anyone at the White
House wanted to talk to some high
official, the call had to pass through

To the Sonnet
BY SHERNA SHALETT.

The ballad is an easy road-a tune,
A faeon of old ,cine, a comrade gay,
md YOU may scalk it in a Summers day.
What time has cleared there is no need to brnne.
With shears of shado,O has the ,cily moon
Shortened the lyrics ancient 1Uay,
That silences acih song hold equal s,cay.
The ebic is a cro,cded road at noon.
But as for me, these things incomplete.
I love the sonnef's ualks and hedges neat,
The eradnaI ascent of its one hill
Until the traveller is spent and still,
The grateful breath, and after brief surrey,
The stately journey do,Vn its ferraced ,0ay.

Germany Sets Farm
Subsidy.

GERMANY, in its drive for agri-
cultural self-sufficiency. has estab-
lished two subsidies to aid in the de-
velopment of adequate supplies of
hogs and hemp; s3.2OO,OOO has been
allotted to stimulate hog raising, while
$4,000, 900 has been set aside to bring
about greater production of fax and
hemp.
Germany is far below her needs in
wool. The annual wool crop of the
nation is set at about 10000 900
pounds, while consumption is II times
as great.
