A bini of lofty mein;
“But when my chicklets tried to eat
Alargo plebeian bean.
They turned their little noses up,
The insult made them weep!
They looked with scorn upon the seed
And loudly (lied, ‘Cheep, cheep!’

THE RADIO PROVING A
WONDERFUL INVENTION
Soon it may he possible to order
your weeks supply of groceries from
the corner store by radio. Or. better
still, perhaps next summer you can get
baseball score, play by play, while you |
sit working hard at your desk with rad¬
io receiver at your ear.
Radio improvements which coilld
make such things a reality were dis¬
cussed by J. A. Vaughn, local Westing
house distributor who explained some
of the more recent improvements d>?
signed to adapt radio work for small
amateur units.
“Until a short time ago" Mr. Vaughn
said, “radio outfits that used current
were dependent upon dry cells for their
operation. These needed frequent re j
newal , which ... entailed ... an expense that ,i
discouraged ... amatuer operators. : 1
many
•One of the most recent improvements! i
has been a stor.'^e battery that will
operate radio outfits. It is a collection j
of small cells designed for radio work j
ony and is now in successful operation
at many stations 'in all parts of the >
country. It undoubtedly will mark a
distinct step in* amateur radio work."
According to Mr. Vaughn, there has ’
been a marked increase in radio inter j
est in this and surrounding towns. The !
outfits range from small ones with j
bed spring aerials having a receiving
radius of 50 miles to more pretentious
ones that can receive over a consider
able area. Y
“The radio concerts that we hear so
much about and also dances by radio
are examples of the way radio is grow
ing" Mr. Vaughn said. “Now that
there is a storage battery *that can be
uf^d with the outfits, that development
will undoubtedly be even more rapid.”
Thousands of thin, frail men and
women have reported an astonishing
and rapil increase in weight as a re¬
sult of taking Tanlac. Sold by City
Pharmacy and all leading druggists.
