Mr. Claud Reynolds of our city is
the liappy possessor of a Clap-East-
ham Regenerator and .^Receiver, a
radio telephone and telegraph set,
with a two-stage amplifier and a
loud-speaking Federal horn. His in-
strument tunes to 175-825 meters,
i. e., it will take messages from sta-
tions operating on 175-S25 wave-
lengths. n

' Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds have been
hearing concerts and other forms of
entertainment from Austin, Houston
and San AtSonio, though thevsveather
cdnditions during the month of June,
the storm month, are far from being
propitious for best results,'On account
of atmospheric disturbances of vari-
ous kinds. X
r . - *
When the air grows more calm and
settled weather conditions prevail,
Mr. Reynolds expects to enjoy many
a fine lecture and concert as a result
of his radio set. <
In Bedville a"1 home-fnade apparatus
operating on one-third the capacity of
this set, belonging to Leslie Richards,
transmitted very clearly for more
than a block, concerts from Denver,
Colorado. Mr. Reynolds judges from
that that there is no limit to his set.
He had almost completed a set of
his own making when the opportunity
came to secure the Clap-Eastman set.'
He still expects to finish liis own
work later.
Others of our citizens . have the
“radio bug.” Mr. R. Barefoot is mak-
ing a shidy of the instrument, prepa-
ratory to installing a set for himself

A girl came swaying down the car,
slender and tall, in a blue serge of
pleasing, lines, and paused with one
hand on the hack of a seat to await
the clearingT^of the erow’ded aisle:
Hamilton noticed the slim whiteness
of the hand and yhe odd shortness of
the little finger. Once, her eyes, clear
and impersonal, met his.
He glanced out at the autumn land-
scape through which the road lay, and
again at his watch, calculating the
time of arrivals'
-A terrific shock and a rending crash
and roar! Shouts, and sickening pain,
and darkness horrible! From that
darkness Hamilton gradually emerged
to a consciousness that some one was
groaning as if in pain, and later a
realization that it was he who
groaned. With the effort to drag him-
self clear of the wreckage came the
knowledge that his right leg was
pinned fast. He set his teeth to bpar
/the pain. Somewhere a girl’s voice
was saying:
“Steady, steady!’’
She came crawling toward him, un-
der the wreckage.
“Something to dig with,” she said?
An, interval and she was back with
a. sharp flake of rock.;
“There.” she said at last, “now’ one
heroic effort, and I think you’ll be
free.” , r~ .
Another effort, and they were clear
of the Wreck. In her exhaustion she
drooped her head on her arms and he

The Story of

IT WAS the
E French flag
which first
floated over
Indiana. I n
the middle of
the seven-
teenth cen-
tury La Salle’s . explorations
brought him through the wooded
wilderness of Indiana. Shortly
there followed Jesuit missionar-
ies from Quebec and in their
trail came adventurous rangers
and fur traders. French forts
and trading posts were soon es-
tablished. In 17(53 the British
took possession this territory • i
after the French and Indian
wars, and remained in posses^
Sion until the Revolution.
One of the boniest campaigns
of the Revolution was that of
Clark’s little army, whose indom-
itable courage and audacity final-
ly defeated the large British gar-
rison at Vincennes and won the
Northwest territory for Virginia.
Pioneers from the East and from
Kentucky made their way into
this new territory, and among

£ ing with those used by our grand-
father. He used the bull-tongue p.Vw
and one-eyed hoe in cultivating his
crops, while today the double disc and

and with these improvements farming
is a pleasure a^nd comfort compared
to former times. i
Stop and think of the housewife
anj her duties as compared to the
