A wish ex- pressed and your voice is where you desire to send it. In thigservice distance is elimi- nated and inconvenience is avoid- ed. The answer is prompt and time and money are saved. For detailed information as to rates and classes of service avail- able consult the telephone direc- tory, or call the ‘Long Distance” operator. Every Bell telephone is a Long Distance station.

Pres- | ently a brown one with light-col- ored stripes and a bluish tail is traveling over the crumbling wall, running into crannies and out again. Now it stops to look at me with its jewel of an eye. And there on the rustic armor is a third one, match- ing the unpainted wood in hue. Its throat is white, but when it is in- color. On two sides of me, beyond the orange trees, is thicket of | small oaks and cia citinattn hammock, I suppose it is called. In all other directions are the pine woods, with their undergrowth of saw-paliretto, The cardinal sings Carolina wren. The chewinks, the blackbirds (a grackle just now flies over, and a fish-hawk also) with the bluebirds and the pine-warblers, are in the pinery. From the same place comes the song of the Maryland yel- low-throat—Bradford Torrey. SORRY HE SPOKE Farmer Mash—What nice dark hair you’ve got, Mrs. Hawkins. My wife is a whole lot younger than you and her hair is gray. Mrs. Hawkins—Yes, and if you were my husband I’d have gray hair too. BRIDGE OVER GRAND CANYON Visitors to the Grand canyon of the Colorado are now able for the of the gorge in comfort. The gov- ernment has thrown a suspension bridge 500 feet long and 5 feet wide across a narrow portion of the can- yon a short distance above the wa- ter. It is not an automobile bridge, but will serve foot passengers and burros very well, For many years these will constitute the only traffic This bridge entailed an expenditure of $25,000. Up to a reasonable limit no expenditure will receive more support from the public than the case of the national pleasure grounds. PRIVACY FOR WIRELESS Privacy of wireless communica- tions has been made possible, ac- cording to a report in Popular Me- chanics Magazine, by a method which is the discovery of an electri- cal engineer in the employ of the Ukrainian government. Utilizing his idea, messages may be sent to a definite receiving station, without danger of their being “picked up” by other operators. It is reported that the same man has also found a way to straighten out and group the “locked power lines” of the mag- netic field ipto parallel rays, which can penetrate mountains, thus avoiding the necessity of high an- tennae.
