LISTENING IN: ON THE WORLD! Next to the au tomobile, the most amazing thing of this cen 4ury, perhaps, is .the way the wire less ' has . spread among amateurs in America. The U S. . Navy as serts that 500.000 boys, girts and young 1 men tiave such radiophone plants, most of them costing from $10 to $21 This is an average of 10.000 to each state-rbut of course some states have sev eral times 10,000. Every night news in Morse code or lectures or addresses or concerts are sent out from central stations in cities for the bereft of fhesc amateurs The United States Navy -exercises i certain control over these amateurs through what I is known as the "Navy Radio Amateur Bureau" This bureau sends the amateur copies Of secret coderf, arranges concerts and lectures for them ., and' otherwise interests them. An amateur writing to Popular Science Monthly says the bureau even tent bint a personal message soon after he joined. ' . . The same writer says that when he hrst got his apparatus together, . he took it out' cm the porch, The wire touched a standpipe on the porch, and instantly he heard music. Wireless sounds come through the air like ripples on S pond, and washed against the receiving wire. In this case they washed against the metal standpipe, and the minute the wire touched it,V the concert that was m the air at the moment began to reproduce on the. apparatus in 'his house. ' If any of our community boys art interested in becoming amateur, , radiograph operators, they should write "United States Navy Radio Ama-1 . tear Bureau, New. York City." - In occupying our new banking rooms, we would like to- extend to the people of Lincoln County our thanks for their business and support which has made our new quarters possible and necessary.

TOLEDO COAL MINES TO BE WORKED George Carpenter of Roseburg ar rived inv Toledo this week and has been busy epi nii.? up the old coal mine on the FUolf, place near this city. Mrt m M.tnr has been ettlns out a couple of ton of coal to be tried out at the electric plant. If the coal proves satisfactory, the plant will probably be fired with coal this win ter instead of wood. The coal was hauled to town Wednesday by Fred Romtvedt. lit will be remembered- that Mn. Carpenter, who is an, experienced coal miner, was here during the sum mer of 1915 and took out about sev enty ton of coal. The mine was then closed and has remained idle until the present time. In a talk with Mr. Carpenter Wed nesday, he stated that he had all the adjacent coal lands now under leasb, and was ready to commence opera tions on a large scale. , Should the coal prove satisfactory for steam pur poses, at the electric plant, and he can secure a contract to furnish them coal, a new mine will be opened at once near the railroad. Falling to secure a contract to supply coal to the electric company, the mine will not be opened until March. At that time however a large crew will be put to work getting out coal for shipment to Willamette Valley Jiolnts. There are thousand and thousands of tons of merchantable coal In this country, and it begins to look now as though It will soon be placed on the market. The coal is of a semi-anthracite nature.
