One belonging to a circus got away at Peru yesterday, killed a camel in about two minutes and clawed an elephant so badly he may die. The best way to celebrate Armistice Day tomorrow is with a smile. It’s hard to pick a fight it every one wears on e of those kind that won't come off. "Dutch” Anderson is dead, Chapman is to be executed in December and now if they will cut the sob stuff and give “One Arm” Wolf what is coming to him at Muncie where he is •tow on trial for murder, progress in wiping out the crime wave can be truthfu]ly reported.

Over in New Brunswick. New Jersey, because they want the "blind ’ tigers” to operate, some (fee has filed affidavits against every one of the | 10,090 citizens and will show that in some way or another they violated * the Sunday laws. You can carry ' things too far. ■ ( At this time when Armistice Day f reminds us of war days it is good to remember that the greatest soldier 1 the world had ever known preached j "Peace on earth, good will toward man.” Lets have peace, lets aot i bicker and quarrel, lets not have so I much strife, at home, abroad, in bus- , iness or in our cwn lives. Peace means happiness. Its better to smile j than frown and its better to spread oil ' upon the waters than to be eternally finding fault and criticising. Let the * Golden Rule be our slogan. * j L _.JJ ■.)■ 1 Mayor-elect Duvall, of Indianapolis. is rewarding the Rian for their loyalty in the recent election by naming leaders to the best Jobs. Charles Orbison. a democrat until stung by the bee, but who supported Duvall this , year, is to be th e corporation attorney at a salary of $6,000. There are two branches of the klan in Indianapolis and evidently the one of which George Coffin is supposed to be the head and which includes such men as Senator Robinson and Governor Jackson is being left out. Look out for another rumpus as a result. Seven years ago tomorrow the great World war ended with the signing of the Armistice. Remember how good we all felt because the boys were coming home, because the slaughter had ceased, because the time had come when we could forget the horrors of war, the ill feelings and again do those things and espouse those problems which go with peace times? And we hate progressed some. We hope the world will never again have to undergo so terrible an ordeal as war and we believe that eventually an agreement of this kind, whether it be called a League of Nations or whatnot, •will b e signed by representatives of every leading nation and approved by every one. Simultaneously six or sewen churches in this city will conduct evangelistic services, beginning January 10th and continuing two weeks. Advance notice is being given now so that every one will co-operate by not fixing other events of importance on those dates. The Ministerial Association is requesting lodges, clubs, societies and schools to arrange their programs so that these two Weeks‘can be given to the churches. The ministers will go farther and will discuss the same subjects on the same i

I want long trousers like the kids are wearing, And dad just laughs and gays tp wait awhile: But mother shakes her head and sits there staring. And says she doesn't fancy such a style. Mother is queer! Sometimes I think she's crying. Although I.can’t discover any tears; She acts to me as though she's really sighing. And asks me just to wait a few more years.

I The Vacuum Tube or Andion. Part 1. There ,is a very interesting story connected with the invention and development pt the radio vacuum tube. This is the little assembly of glass and wires that does th* greatest work i in the receiving of radio programs. Without it. radio broadcasting and reI cciving. as we have it today, would i be impossible. Before the day of the tube, all sig nals were received on sets using crystal or electrolitic detectors, and they , had no amplifiers to step up the volume of the signals. These detectors were very irregular and for from efficient, and sets using them could ' not be depended upon for much more ’ than a range of 50 miles. The discovery of the vacuum tube ' came about by" accident and will be explained in detail. A young inventor. Lee De Forest, was carrying on 1 an experiment in his small work shop ■ and'happened to be tinkering with a spark coil. There was a Welsback 1 gas light burning in the room, and ' Dp Forest noticed that as the spark ' coil was operated the flame* of the gas light fluctuated. The incident > remained so clear In De Forest's mind 5 that he could not give up the idea 'that the conductivity of gasses would ’ ( lead to the design of a really sensitive 1 detector. i A.i soon as he could find the time he again started his experiments I.

■ Mother is fenny. night I overheard her Saying to dad she couldn’t bear the thought, "And dad replied: “I guess it's no i absurder Than women folks who want their dresses short. Well, well." said he. "I know just what : you're thinking, It's much too soon to change him .to a man. ' You’re right about it, mother. Stop your blinking, ' We’ll keejf him still a youngster while we can.”

with this in mmd. The first one he | terfornwd was with two electrodes ■ n a Bunsen burner. With this arrangement, signals from a distance station were distinctly audible, better than the old type detector, in fact.; As soon as the experiments with the' gas burner were well under way he decided that the best method of obtaining stability in the dector was. to place the electrodes in a closed; bulb. He tried several experiments withj detectors of this kind. A tube was devised with a plate and “B battery circuit, at this point the operation of\he tube became so superior to the other types of detectors, that De Forest settled down to work in dead earnest. Several of> the available types of tubes were mantlfactured and put into cperflt’.on at the various D e Forest’Company stations. But he was still dissatisfied with its operation, and tried several other experiments, in one of them he added , third electrode placed around the outside of the tube, and in another the two plates ware placed inside the tube one on each side of the, filament This latter form funct’oned unexpectedly well, and De Forest continually asked himself if. after all, he had found the best possible place for the third electrode. If the third electrode had such minute control over the flow of current in the circuit with the control placed at one side of

’the two terminal* of the local circuit in the tube, why should It* not have eve ngreater influence over it with the new plate placed between the other electrode*. He saw that placing a plate between the first plate and the filament would place an unnecessary obstacle in the path of the current carry gases, and dropped the usual plate form for the present day grid. The final form of the nndlon. as we know It today, whs the result. It should lie mentioned here that De Forest, after trying his experiments with the gas burner, remembered the work of Fleming and the investigations of others, made with the Edison effect, the flow of current from a hot filament to a cold anode or pjate, and added the filament, heated by batteriisf. to replace the gas flame effect.
