MAKING RADIO EFFECTIVE
IN FRENCH PARTS
The American Telephone & Tele-
graph Company, operating broad-
casting station WEAF, has brought
suit against station WHN for in-
fringement of basic patents involved
I in radio broadcasting. President
Thayer of- the telephone company
points out that his cojnpany had
bought a number of patents to make
available to -the public the benefits
to be derived from these inventions,
at reasonable prices.
-df-Vorfilitr* $&at when it appeared
likely that a multitude of broad-
casting station would destroy the
entertainment value of these devices,
the A. T. & T. Co. offered rte -fa-
cilities for hire in the hope that
such an arrangement would do away
with large numbers of stations in-
terfering with each other as well
as the enjoyment of the public.; For
Tort Worth, March 31.—Potentate
Frank Taylor of Moslah Temple an-
nounces that the big spring cere-
monial will be held in Fort Worth
Friday, April 25, and will be a day
of fun and festivity for the Nobility.
The fun will start with the arrival
of the early trains and will end with
the biggest dance ever held.
The usual street .parade will be
held befor the cerraomal, the street
parade being in charge of Marshal
A. R. Ponton, who announces there
will be plenty of fun in the street
parade.

proved his adaptability by enacting

the' iairie reason, it had th refuM
licenses to other stations due to
limited number that should be in-
stalled.
The whole matter of public en-
tertainment telephony is new, and
regulation for ita preservation in a
proper manner are before Congress.
President Thayer says his company
has no desire for a monopoly of air
but as courts have held that unless
owners of paterta protect them and
prosecute infrirgements, the patents
. Japsc, hence necessity for prasent
suit to protect patent rights secured
by the United States.

pletely at home in his part.

“HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD
the fires of mad passions that re-

The Viking in Artie Seas
The Norwegian Red Cron has
transformed the formed batting
The Viking, into a floating hospital
for the relief of the fisher folk ef
Norway, who, living in isolated bays
and other indentation of the Artk
sens, need medical attention. The
\ iking has beds for fifty patients
and is in every way well equipped
to minister to the needs of the pop-
ulation of the northern regions.
The wintering pact of our modern
life; the unbridled excesses in which
thousands are indulging; the shams
and the whims of men and women
in all stations of life are belabored
with shattering blows by Daniel

etic and significent photodrama,
"Has the World Gone Mad!” an-
nounced for exhibition at the Na-

A Glacier in Action
The famous Heavens Peak Glacier,
in Glacier Park, Mont., suddenly
came to life while it was being
studied by geological students from
the University of Minnesota. Dur-
ing the night they heard a dull
rumbling, and when daylight came
they found that the glacier, which
was supposed to be dead, was mov-
ing toward their camp. An hour
after they left their camp the
glacier "had descended into the val-
ley two hundred feet beyond.

This week’s story is that of a
hunter who started life without a
single chance and who rose to the
highest paid executive in the
United States in his chosen line.
Back in 1881, in the little township
«>f Hornitos, in Mariposa County,
California, was born a boy Whom
his parents named Jay Bruce.
Hornitos boasted 142 inhabitants,
all farmers and all poor. Two
months a year a traveling teacher
visited the village and gave in-
struction, but Jay’s family were
too poor to be able to spare him
even for that short period, and
what education he gained was at
his mother’s knee and by the light
©f a log fire.
Most of hia boyhood waa spent
Id the vicinity of the Vote mite
Valley and the Mariposa Big Trees.
When he was nineteen he became
a pump hand in the Yosemite
mines, lived in a company shack,
and saved every dollar he earned.
Nine year* later he started a saw-
mill business, operating two mills
which he designed and built him-
self. An accident resulted in blood
poisoning, his business failed, and
he wrh wiped out. He was mar-
ried and had three small children,
but no home or job.
Thereafter he tried hia hand at
eleven kinds of work and failed
each time. Mrs. Bruce, with
starvation facing the family, urged
him to turn lion hunter. The Cali-
fornia Fish and Game Commission
was offering twenty dollars for,__
each mountain lion killed. So authority on liona.
