Secret was brought wireless telephony within the bounds of possibility by an invention that just passed official testa here. Stated to be of simple construction, the invention can be fitted to any existing receiving set. In the tests it was found possible to receive on one aerial and one receiver messages mnde up of two, three, or any number of different wave-lengt- intermingled, under the desired condition. stations were English Many heard broadcasting simultaneously, and individual stations were turned in or out at will, while the strength of reception was also varied at will. ihe adaptability of the invention for the transmission of secret messages is obvious. If four different s were decided on for the transmission of a message the first five words could be transmitted 011 one the second five on a Iiit;her wave, the third on a lower and the fourth on a wavelength out of all proiKirtion to the other three, which would render it iuiHi.ssible for the message to be pic ked up intact by anyone without . iiowing the various wave-length- wave-lengt- 1 wave-lent'ths- I The Provo city planning commis sion held a very enthusiastic meeting Thursday evening at which were present most of the members of the commission. Maps and exhibitions showing ten-ativ- e plans for parks and vards were shown by John W. Farrer, chairman of the committee in charge of the work. The committee also showed a tentative scheme for furnishing enlarged playgrounds for the Provo city schools. It was pointed out by the committee that at present none of the grammer schools in the city have sufficient playground equipment or space for play. , The committee on statistics on growth in population compared Provo with other communities where iron and steel manufacturing plants have completely transformed tha cities. The report was mainly to show the extent of planning that would be necessary for the proper development of Provo. It was shown that Birmingham, Alabama, which was a much smaller community when the iron and steel mills first were estahlished there than Is Provo, forty years later had ' boule- Day SALT LAKE B. F.

Steel When Sleol Day comes around there'll come to Provo and Springville thousands of persons who have never seen either city, and whose lifetime impression will remain what it is that day. To them Provo and Springville will be "cities beautiful" or "collections of old fences, weeds, unkempt lawns, unsightly barns and outbuildings, delapidated dwellings, unclean streets, unpainted houses, and vacant lots. And, the impression they leave with, with be the advertisement they will give ever thereafter to inquirers of Provo,! In years past Provo has had her annual "Cleanup Week," when the more .enterprising of citizens betook themselves to the task of cleaning up their premises and persuading their neighbor to do likew wise. But none of those weeks found JProvo what you might term a "spotless town." Always there remained spots here and there in need of brush and broom and rake. This year, though, there is more reason to reduce the number of neglected spots. Everything should have received the attention of a cleaner-u- p before Steel Day comes. A good time to begin this cleaning up is right now. An excellent place to begin it is in your own yard, and before your own property. City Commissioners Charles Hopkins and George P. Billings have mapped out a really fine program of cleaning and beautifying of streets. That will go well with an equally fine and unanimous program on the part of property owners. Then, durweek the organizations and ing the annual clean-u- p citizens interested there-i- n may turn their attention away from their own homes and assist in arousing the clean-u- p Interest in the more thought- less neighbors. Never before in all her history did Provo stand clean-u- p in more need of a thoroughly e movement not because there is more to clean-ubut because there'll be so many more visitors in Provo on Steel Day than ever were here before.
