He bought the Lincoln Automobile. Com pany 81 bankrupt sale for 88,0&0,000 and said it was too cheap, and the stockholders should be reimbursed, so he paid $4,000,000 additional, making a total of 912,000,000 the property cost him. The wires had scarcely finished telling of this front page marvel before he springs another wonder to make the world gape. This time he buys 120,000 acres of Kentucky coal lands and he gives out with announcement of the purchase that he.intends to thlye the country’s coal problem - ’ “by using every • pir-'n of eon I .twice.” IK- The tract of land which Mr. Ford purchased has ■reserve' coal supply of 600,000,000 tons. Pretty big lot of coal, we should say. But the property add ed to coal lands previously purchased brings the total up to 165,000 acres. The latest purchase cost him between three and four million dollars. Is the K ’ ”c becoming alarmed about Mr. Ford’s monopol- the coal lands? Not a bit of it. If he starts any putting up of the price of coal and oppressing the poor, it will be a new thing for him. i But Mr. Ford is asking the users’of His coal to .in stall furnaces that will remove only the gas, leaving- a fuel unimpaired for domestic purposes. The coal, after tliis process, would lxj sold to heat the homes of hundreds of thousands of workers throughout the countrk The fuel remaining after the gas had been taken off would be even more valuable for. home heating purposes than it was before, according to what Ije says. Great is Henry Ford! RADIO NIGHTHAWK The Kansas City Nighthawk now have 35,000 mem bers among the radio - fans all over the United States and Canada. The Nighthawks broadcast a radio coa- cort frbm Kansas City after midnight.; Between jazz numbers of the Coon-Sanders orchestra, the announc er reads telegrams from out-of-town radio bugs who e “listening in.” The reading of these telegrams jkes it he senders members of the Nighthawks.

It’s like pulling teeth, for a radio bug to shut to get the'juice and go to bed. For radio has a peculiar e, unlike anything else. This lure is in the fact radio eliminates distance and carries the listener ■eWs orthousands of miles in a twinkling.

The usual telegrams were read, be- i musical selections, from radio enthusiasts, came one from an Indiana woman. She wanted t Jtvord to her brother, somewhere in the north- woods, that father was dead. We wondered ithor the brother heard the announcer read the gram, or whether some friend heard and passed word along. The incident had a dramatic touch is Seldom equaled on the stage or in the movies, it Washed through the night air with all the un ted ness that ir. characteristic of radio, near the joy-killers occasionally * commenting tne great aniopnt of time wasted by radio fans, have the wrong slant.

In se radio is awakening a scientific sense that ^indispensable to people who want to keep up pines from now on. Incidentally, radio is going Ip enforce prohibition.

The young lawyer has ad versities just as does the young newspaper man. All professional men have a rough and rugged road to travel until they pass that period of experience which brings to them the confi dence of the public and, when once eStlilishcd their success is nssureo and the remainder of their pro- pessional life runs smooth. Here Is one told of a young lawyer. He deserved success and, no doubt, he did succeed, but he was not. im- munc to the trials and crosses as experienced by the elder members of tne profession in their begin ning days: A young lawyer was asked tc defend a tramp who was accused of stealing a watch. The lawyer pleaded with all the ardor at hi* command,' drawing r pathetic picture with such :on vincing energy that aLthe close of the argument the cgprt was in tears ,and even the tramp wept. The jury deliberated and found tho prisoner “-not guilty.” i Then the tramp drew himself up, tears streaming down his face ss.'hc said to the lawyer: . '“Sir, I have never heard such •i grand nlea.
