The plan is not so different from that already acomplished and popu- larized by means of the motion ple- ture camera. Explorers have gone out into the forests and flelds for the purpoe of bhotographing wild ani- mals in their natural surroundings. Why should not radio be utilized to accomplish for the ear what the cam- era has done for the eve? It would | appear far better to allow the birds to roam about With absolute free- dom and enjoy their singing than to keep them caged, Moreover, it would be a rare treat for the city dweller, who does not have either the leisure or _facilities to enjoy the country. There is no limit to which such novel procedure may bo carried to| fulfill the r-increasing demand for variety in all things whether radio, movies or the drama. Some day may see the broadcast station and the microphonn carrying over thousands of miles all the atmosphere of far-away Dplaces. The dweller will be ablo to hear the s pounding on the rocky coast Maine and be lulled to sleep by its monontonous and soothing roar. The city dweller. in the heat of a scorch- ing sun, may hear the shouts of hun- dreds at the bathing boaches and galn some D hological comfort in the radlo contact All these things are In the realm of the possible, while somie American stations have already gone so far as to broadcast circuses and barn dances.

Elght New Canadian Stations. Eight new broadcasting stations along the Canadian border have been opened recently in Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia. These new stations operate on waves from 400 to 440 moters, and should be heard by all fans In the northern half of the United States.
