Radio know it today is auickly assuming an ever-increasing fleld of usefulness in our everyday lives. It ministers to our educational needs as well as to our desires for light entertainment. It brings us messages from the pulpit, from the stage, from the legislative chambers of our governing bodies and from the classrooms of our great universities. It serves the business executive, the newspaper and the varicus gov- crnment agencies which are con- stantly gathering news for our benefit. It brings us all the news of the world “hot off the bat.” Just consider the marvel of hear- ing the words uttered by a speaker five hundred, one thousand or more miles away 'even before his words ave reached the rear of the hall in which he is speaking. It has eliminated in no small de- gree the dangers which have so long beset travelers in isolated territories and on the broad expanse of the ocean’s bosom. It has given the mariner not only the aid so necessary in times of dis tress, but has afforded him, through the means of the radio compass, a means of finding his exact location; a pro- tection against the dangers which Dbeset the navigator who does not know his exact position. Savesx Ships at Sea. We no longer read reports of lost vessels or great disasters as we formerly did when vessels sank and human life was wiped out without a chance to summon aid.

In the hospitals and in the sick- Tooms radio has entered as a a_min- istering angel to dispel the heavy gloom ‘clouds which formerly hung around the bedside of the afflicted. Invalids too weak to go to churches, theaters and other places to which they used to delight to go are find- ing in radio an ever-faithful friend. in peace, radio has proved its usefulne: i T other sources of com- munication failed, when telephone and telegraph lines were torn beyond repair, when the barrage of the enemy guns rendered roads and whole sections impassable, radio carried mes- sages back and forth. unmindful of the withering fire . and screaming shells.

The four naval radio men who stood by with the late Capt. Sparrow of the unfortunate cruiser Tacoma when she was broken up by heavy seas in Jan- uary, after grounding near Vera Cruz, | Mexico, have all been commended by Secretary Wilbur of the Navy for conspicuous courage, devotion to duty and disregard of personal danger. Of the four gallant operators who endeavored to maintain communica- tign with shore stations, only one, Chief Radio Man Joseph V. Cooper, U. 8. N., of Buffalo, N. Y., remains alive, the other three having perished with their skipper in line of duty.
