SERMONS BY PHONE Residents of Guernsey Islands Havo “Attended Services” on Broadcast- Iqé Theory for Many Years. Guernsey Island, Eng., Nov. 29,— The small island of Guernsey, in the English channel, has been enjoying a unique telephone service for the past 24 years. Every Sunday morning subscribers, at least some of them, sit at home and listen to the sermon from the church over the wires, and in summer they are entertained in the same way by the music of the local band, They simply ask central for the necessary connection, and a trans- mitter affixed to the pulpit or in front of the bandstand does the rest. Guernsey developed this system as far back as 1898, when broadcasting was undreamed of and telephones relatively few and far apart. *For 24 years the natives of these unfrequent- ed islands have been enjoying the penefits of a broadcasting system which today is becomlng widespread through radio. . There are_eight telephones to every 100 inhabitants of Guerhsey, and the gervice is said to be the cheapest in the world.

Last night he re- mained up for an hour past his usual bed time, or until 9 o'clock, despite the strain of his speech at the audi- torium and the greatest ovation he has received since his arrivalgin Am- erica. Nevertheless he was up short- ly after dawn. Although no formal program had been outlined, it was expected he would spend the day receiving a few callers ahd in making an automobile tour of the city. , He also read with much interest comments on his speech of yesterday in which he declared that while France was seeking only peace, war was being forced upon her. After hiss speech in the auditorium he said he wanted to return there to- night and hear the Chicago opera company's presentation of the “Snow Maiden.!” Tomorrow morning he will go' to Springfield, 111, to lay a wreath on Lincoln's tomb. From there he will go to St. Louis, where he speaks to- morrow night. He then will go to Washington. A capy of what Clémenceau termed a certified official report of the allied commission of much hidden war ma- terial unearthed in Germany shared in the attention given his speech to- day. % The theme of “the Tiger's” address was taken from the epitaph on Gen. Grant’s tomb in New York “let us have peace.” Quoting from what he termed an officlal report on unearthed war ma- terial in Germany, Clemenceau stoted that it clearly showed why France felt a large army must be maintained. Thousands of rifles, pistols, car- tridges, parts of guns, field telephone wire and quantitites of other war ma- terial dug up in 45 separate instances since July 15, 1921, were mentioned in the report. The Tiger has received a belated telegram from Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor who complimented M.
