-.T [toy* t MARCONI REALLY FATHER GF RADIO Story of the Gifted Italian’s Work In Development of Air Communication. While experiments along the line of radio really started as fur back as 1827 und hundreds of scientists were interested in solving the problems Involved for many years, it was not until 189 C when Senatore Guglielmo Marconi took out his first patent that the mastery of air communication got its first great impetus. His life history is to all practical Intents the history of radio communication. Senators Guglielmo Marconi, G. C. ' 1.0., L. L. D„ D-Sc. M. I, E. R., was born in Bologna, Italy, April 25, 1874. His mother was Irish, while his father < i was of a family whose mechanical I ability was marked. After an edu- I cation at Leghorn and Bologna, the | young man interested himself in the | i problem of wireless telegraphy, starting his research in 1895. He went to | Englund and in 1896 took out the first patent ever granted for a practical system of wireless telegraphy, by the use of electric waves. His early ex- : periments in England were made at j ' Westbourne Park. Shortly afterward I Marconi saw W. H. Preece and i at his request made some experiments for officials of the postoffice. Some further experiments were made In May. 1897, in the Bristol channel, i wireless communication being established between Lavernock and Brean ' Down, a distance of nine miles. On the invitation of the Italian government Marconi afterward went to Spezia where a land station was erected, which was kept in constant | communication with two Italian battleships working from a distance of I 12 miles. For this success the Italian government conferred upon Marconi the honor of knighthood After a return to England further experiments were conducted and on July 20. 1897, the first radio company was formed and two permanent stationerected. In 1898 wireless reports of yacht races in Kingston were made : and proved the usefulness and adapt- i ability to which the system lends it-

self to commercial purposes. In December. 1898, Marconi installed apparatus to provide communication between the South Foreland lighthouse and a lighthouse on the south coast. Tn 1899 Marconi read a paper on “Wireless Telegraphy” before the Institution of Electrical Engineers In London. Early In 1901 telegraphic comma- : nication was established between two points more than 250 miles distant and at the end of that year Marconi transmitted signals from Poldhn, in Cornwall to St. Johns, Newfoundland. In 1902 he received on board the steamship Philadelphia in the presence of the officers, good messages on the tape when at a distance of over 1,500 miles from the transmitting station and signals at over 2.000 miles. In December, 1902, the station established at Cape Breton. Nova Scotia, under a contract with the Canadian government for transatlantic wireless telegraphy, was pot into communication with the Cornwall station at Poldhu and inaugural messages were transmitted to the Kinz es England, the King of Italy and to the London Times. In October. . the steamship Lucania published a daily wireless bulletin from message* ; received from the Marconi stations. A powerful station at Clifden on the west coast of Ireland was opened ' eurty tn 1907 for the establishment ' of commercial reHtions with t!» American continent at Gla<te Bay.

He wa? employed on Important military mis sions to England by the Italian gov ernment nnd after this service was transferred as temporary commander in the Italian navy.

In 1010 Murconl was appointed plenipotentiary delegate to the peace conference at Purls, and In this capacity signed the peace treaties with Austria and Bulgaria. He was afterward awarded the Italian military cross.

Radio enthusiasts have increased 1 -enfold within the last few months, It appears from a survey conducted TV the Associated Press and covering the central west, Kentucky and Texas. Ar virtually all points from which reports hare been received, there are thousands of radio sets, particularly for purposes of telephony, where at 1 most there were hundreds before. While the sets are used chiefly for I pleasure and experience, they are being put to practical uses in many cases. Numerous farmers are receiv-
ing market and weather reports, and police are receiving bulletins. Sermons. concerts, health talks and style talks are transmitted. Vnirersittea and professional operators are co-c.j> er* ting. Approximate Azures are reported from various states and centers indicating the present number of radio I sets. According to A. L. Benson of St. Louis, division manager of the American Radio Relay league, about 9€-.fW) radiophones are used In few states as followa: lowa, 23,W>': Missouri. 25.090; Nebraska. 22.000; Kansas, 20JMjO.

HAB MOVIE PLAN TO KEEP THE BOYB ON THE OLD FARM (United l’rr*« Mrrvlre). San Francisco, May 2. John Armstrong Chaloner, wealthy New Yorker, who was the author of the famous ‘“Who’s looney now?” telegram to his brother, “Sheriff Hob” Chaloner,, when the latter married blna Cavalier!, famed opera songbird, la now touring the country waging a campaign to "keep ’em down on the farm.” On the complaint of "Sheriff Bob," John Armstrong wnji brough before a New York commission and adjudged insane, nnd placed in confinement. John Armstrong escaped und went to Cobham, Virginia, where he established residence, and where another commission declared him to be sane. The governor of Virginia refused to Issue extradition papers sending him back to confinment In New York. John Armstrong is now interested in keeping the country boys on the farm, and is touring every state in the union—except New York —trying to interest educational authorities in his idea. “Visual education for rural communities Is my plan in a nutshell,,” declared Chaloner. “There is too great i drift to the cities. America will soon become a country importing foodstuffs instead of exporting them if the disproportionate growtli of the cities com pared with the farm communities con tinues. "Briefly, my plan is this: A port ible projecting moving picture ma bine which can be attached to an automobile. One such machine should be alloted to each county. The county is divided into ten districts and each ! ifstrkt is given motion picture on tertainment once every two weeks. "Educatonal fdms of high quality I would be shown in the afternoons, ,and t »ood clean comedies at night. ' ‘"This plan will keep the boys at the ■ t-ross-roads Instead of in the big i-itfes. Wherever ft has been tried out ,rt has been a success and soon ber I tomes very nearly self-supporting. I t plan to visit nearly every state in the inion, and .confer with all state eduationai authorities. My trip will take r to years. I will have visited 24 states . before I return to my home in Virginia next winter.” I Chaloner conferred with state offi- | lais of California, and from San Fran‘l cisco will work his way north into I Oregon and Washington.
