It is accomplished by picking up ground waves instead oi: waves that pass through the ether, according to the discoverers. James D. and Ray Gibson, father The and eon, are the inventors. father was for many years a telegraph operator and his son was an overseas aviator during the worlc war. It was during the war that the son became interested in radio. The experiments in radio were carried on by the father and son after the sons return from the war, am two years ago they conceived the idea of using ground currents.

Three hundred and twenty-eigh- t young men and women left Paris with a band at .heir head, went to Chatou, and started the fiances fair by an alfresco lunch, followed by a ball. Each of them had previously filled up a form, giving details as to their situation and prospects, and making known their ideas regarding their life In return for these partner-to-bforms each person received a numbered badge. If, at the ball or elsewhere, a young woman was attracted by the wearer of a certain number she could find out all about him by simply quoting his number. Most of the men wanted wives who while the were fond of home, principal stipulations made by the girls were that their prospective husbands should have safe Jobs and satisfactory incomes. e. How Ships Will Be Salved Italian government engineers have apprised a plan for raising from Lake Nemi near Rome the pleasure galleys of Emperor Tiberius who died In 37 A. D. It is believed that these galleys are well preserved and that they will throw much light on the social life of the Roman nobility of that period. The question has attracted the attention of archeologists for centuries. Even as early as the Sixteenth cessfully.

Sunday, while looking over the debris, one of us got a wild idea that we would put it together again and bury it a little deeper. That gave us the inkling we had been seeking, because to our astonishment even in the makeshift way we had formed condensers out of the cable it worked passably fair, and were able to get Marquette college, set a Milwaukee, on a three-tub- e station we had experienced considerable trouble with when using an outside aerial. With this start in the right direction we had the subantenna perfected in a week and were pull-i- n any station we desired without interference of any sort. There was a great deal of static in the atmosphere during this period, but we none of it. With this new device, to secure perfect radio reception for the ordinary residence all that is required is sixty feet of specially prepared wire divided into condensers, one attogether with two pick-uptached to the end in the ground and the other in the center. Fifty feet of this wire is buried in the ground to a depth of eighteen inches to two feet, and the remaining ten feet i3 used for a lead into the set. Of course, anything above the first floor requires just that much more lead-in- . Not satisfied with their own experiments, Mr. Gibson and his son laid it before experts. It was tested for five months and it was found that the radio waves sent out by broadcasting stations travel through the ground as well as the air. These ground waves it was revealed, are free from static interference and weather conditions do not affect them. Once we threw a subantenna in Lake Michigan and then hooked onto a set in a Building on shore, Mr. Gibson said. The results ere the same as when the subantenna was burled in the ground, showing that electrical waves sent out by the broadcasting station pass through water as well as through the ground and the air.

A. Thouzier, a French pigeon fancier, who declares that carrier pigeons make poor flights during the occurrence of magnetic storms. He also asserts that the general use of wireless telegraphy has diminished the reliability of these birds to a surprising extent. How City (Jot Title Atlanta received the title of The Gate City at a banquet held in Charleston, S. C., in 1850, according to Robert F. Maddox in a speech at Mayor Sims dinner to visiting railroad officials at the Biltmore hotel. They had a big celebration in Charleston when the railroad from Charleston to Memphis was completed, Mr. Maddox said." Atlanta and other cities sent representatives.
