Willie Saw Himself as Possible Rival of Hens
SPUING is here. It may not look like It sometimes, but it Is a fact. Under
the direction of II. M. Cnnully of tin* department <>f agriculture, detailed
lor garden worl in the District, war garden chilis are springing up as radishes
will do later Pi those very gardens. - -
Kight in the heart of our big city
“xlsts a modest backyard that con
tains quite a number of hens.
There is a white-haired grand
mother who is guardian angel to said
hens, and there is a little boy with
wide, wondering eyes, who sometimes
acts as guardian angel for “grand
maw,” as lie calls her.
One day recently grnndmaw came
In from the backyard, bustling with
excitement. “The hen’s combs are so
red. 1 think they are going to lay some eggs.” she said, while little WUll*
listened intently. Several days after that, William eaine in from the backyard,
where he had been playing, his cheeks aglow from exercise.
He sat on the edge of a chair to get his breath and it was there his grand
mother noticed him.
“Why, Willie!” she exclaimed. “What makes your cheeks so red?”
Willie, from Ids percli on the chair, solemnly replied:
“Maybe I’m going to lav an egg.”

WIRELESS
ON BRITISH AIRPLANES
SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, May 4
(by mail).—Every pilot in the airj
service is now a trained wireless i
telegraphist. The field of use of thej
wireless in connection with air-,
planes is, however, limited by two
factors—the weight, of the apparatus
and the noise and vibration of the
engines.
Heavier than-air craft cannot re
main aloft, as airships can, with en
gines stopped for the better recep
tion of long distance wireless mes
sages. Rut the wireless has enlarged
the field of use of airplanes in war
fare. Messages transmitted by the
“cavalry of the air” now keep head
quarters in touch with every visible
movement on the part of the enemy.
It is, however, in connection with
artillery that wireless is chiefly em
ployed. The comparatively light sets
required for the transmission of mes
sages a distance equal to the range
of modern guns is but a small load
for the average two-seater airplane.
The difficulty of receiving “sound”
signals in the air jviK. be apparent
when it is stated that conversation
between pilot and observer is imprac
ticable without the use of special
“loud-speaking” telephones on account
of the noises made by the engine, the
hum of the vibrating rigging, and the
rush of the air. The effect of vibra
tion, apart from the noises, is per
haps the greatest difficulty to over
come in designing the receiving
apparatus.
Signals sent when flying across the
ground station, or when turning, are
not so clear as those sent while fly
ing directly towards or away from
the receiving station.

WAR MAY SETTLE
CHURCH DIFFERENCES
LONDON, June fi.—Probably for the
first time in fho history of St. Paul's
cathedral, a numerator of the Church
of Scotland gave an address there
the other night. He spoke on the possi
bility of closer relations between the
Church of England and the Presby
terian churches of Scotland. The
bishop of London said: "Just as we
are told that there is to be a war
measure for composing the difficul
ties of Ireland, so it is a war measure
to close the ranks of the Christians
churches.”
