be given the “trouble shooters" of this organization and the constructive work they are doing to make radio in the home a pleasure instead of a nightmare of queer noises. It can safely be said there are more satisfied radio listeners in Indianapolis than in any other city, and this largely because the Broadcast Listeners’ Association is a non-profit organization established wholly for the benefit of the listening public. The series of interference talus given by Secretary A. 3. Allen over the local radio station WFBM is characteristic of the untiring activities of the association and its various officers. The good work of this organization should continue. and in its accomplishments, the association is truly worthy of the loyal support of every radio listener In Marion County.

LETTER BRINGS BACK TRAGEDY TO ENGINEER ‘A Year Ago You Killed My Son,’ Writes Father of Accident Victim to Railroader, Now Retired.

Fifty-three years of railroading, I which included driving all the Big | Four engines from those that pull a long freight to the Royal Palm passenger flyer to Florida, mdde James M. Beggs, 1145 Dawson St„ lose faith in most of the popular superstitions. Yet when Dec. 13 rolls around this veteran engineer, who was retired on pension in 1924, cringes just a bit. Not that “thirteen” is the cause, but on that date, a year before he left the-road, a young man drove his automobile into the side of the rapidly moving Royal Palm engine with Beggs at the throttle. When the train was brought to a halt the youth was found crushed and dead at the wheel of his machine. The accident occurred at the crossing at Thorntown, Ind. No blame was attached to Beggs by the coroner’s jury and the road was not sued for damages. A year later to the day, Beggs received the following note scrawled in lead pencil. “Do you remember one year ago today on Dec. 13, at Thorntown Boone County, Ind., on the E. Main St. crossing of the Big Four R. R., you took the life of my son. “I am told you are the man this is to remind you. “THE FATHER.” Since that day Beggs has kept the letter and speaks of it with sorrow. Dec. 13 remains vivid in his memory. Though he has' never seen the author of the note, he pictures him in his sorrow at theloss of a son. “I thought I would write to him, but perhaps it would only make

him feel that I was trying to explain something away,” the 73-year-old engineer declares. “I am truly sorry for that marl'.” During his long service on the Big Four Beggs was in several major wrecks, but not once was the blame fixed on him. At one time the boiler of his engine exploded and he was tossed high into the air. Unconscious for a week and with many shattered bones, he wavered between life and death in a hospital. In six months h was back on the the road and had his major runs after that. He was retired when he reached the 70-year-age limit.

GOSHEN HEARS BISHOP Bu United Press GOSHEN. Ind., April B.—Bishop Francis J. McConnell of Pittsburgh spoke Thursday night to the North Indiana Conference of the Methodist Episcopa. Church in a plea for more colleges a id universities. Despite popular belief, atheism and immorality are found in a less degree in colllege sthan outside, he said. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, Washhington, D. C., secretary of the Methodist Episcopal board of temperance and morals, said in an address before the Laymeii’s Association that the country is demanding a change in the personnel of the prohibition enforcement department.
