The physician said to her, 88 he was about to place her upon the -table, "Before we can make you well we must put you to sleep." The little girl looked up and, smiling, said, "Oh, if you are going to put' me to sleep, I must say my prayers Arst!" Then she knelt beside the table and said: "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, 1 pray Thee, Lord, my soul to take."

"But," you ask, "how am a mere boy (or girl, just you happen to be) sell soft drinks when the field is already crowded with people who make their living that way?" The field isn't crowded. Is there soft drink man at the club or school baseball game? Baseball fans usually consume no little amount of liquid and if there isn't any one already there to supply the drinks (as there usually isn't at amateur games), why don't you step in and make some money? There are various other occasions where soft drink men needed, but aren't to be found.

Kable, York High school, 1013 North George St. For the past year I have been greatly interested in wireless. A few months ago I put up my aerial, which was considerable work. I had to get on our house roof to put up. Previously I had fastened two poles to our two chimneys and then I pulled the aerial up between these poles.

My aerial is composed of four copper wires, No. 14 gauge, spaced about two feet apart. At each end of these wires there is an insulator. That is an object made of porcelain that looks like ball, with a hole in each end. The object of these Insulators is to prevent any energy of the aerial I have a spreader or which is either being received or transmitted to escape.

At each of end piece of wood about eight feet long, to which the insulators are fastened. In the middle of each of the four wires I have another wire fastened. These four wires leading from the aerial are fastened together and brought down to the lightning switch. These wires form what is known as the lead in. The lightning switch looks like any other switch, only it is much larger and capable of standing 500 volte, 100 amperes.

I also put a six foot pipe in the ground and brought a wire from this up to. the lightning switch. The lightning switch affords capable protection, connected against lightning. receiving set with my aerial and ground, and have since been receiving daily time and weather from the so government station at Arlington, Va. Some of my friends are wireless bugs and we frequently exchange ideas through the air.
