H is life was devoted to the invention and perfection of the most murderous of weapons, various types of automatic and sem i automatic fiutam s. He ppobahiy had more to do with the development of sporting weapons then any other man iu America and probably was least known in conneetjoii with then», Although he owned the patents to scores o f improvements in firearms hig naine, until recent years, was never used in con nection with any o f thsm. It was not until the United States army turn ed to hipi for help in t w r , ttiat his Bams as an inventor of firearms became generally known to the people of the United States. B efore the was was r over it was destU ed ho become one of the m o s f frequent heard in army r^rkw.- Before America entered the war the great value of two types of automatic weapon, the machine gun and the automatic rifle, had beep thoroughly demom strated. The n$ed was felt, however, for a greater perfection than had y et been attained. A machine gun was granted which Would f ir e faster and longer than a n y . then made, and an automatic rifle more easily portable than the Lewis gun and more de, pendable than the French Chauchat. Browning pro duced both. The BnJwning W h i n e gun and the Browning automatic rifle are probably the most "Wb* » t e * rw p o n . of U ulr kind y r t inranted. The part they played in Winning the war, however, was slight, a little more perhaps than the Liberty motor.

You throw a switch, twirl a few .nobs and a door is opened into a magic world, but Withal < chaotic one. It is a world in which the human voice may be projected over leagues of space entirely Unas sisted by any carrying medium save that which nature furnishes.

It sound |ike the mob scene in Julius Caesar on ly more so. ■ ’ A ll that is expected of congress is that it s h a llk play the role o f the hero who steps into the room, holds up his hand and says, “ Don’t all talk at once.” Its magnetic intervention is expected to bring order out o f confusion without depriving any body of the right to say his say or sing his song by providing a system by which such saying and singing can be carried on according to a schedule of non-interferenoe. Perhaps it can be done to the satisfaction o f all concerned, talkers as well a s listenejrs-in, but it looks a good.deal as though Hercules had a fairly simple job with his seven labors compared w ith what congress faces in tackling the radio problem.

Joslin, eminent Harvard medico, is report ed to have told the Ohio Valley Medical association. He «ays it help« to keep down the fat which is us ually worse than the diabetes. It w ill be noted, howsper, that he specifies a little diabetes, and that is where the whdle trouble comes in. Few peeple are oontent with just a little. Once they get a sample of it they cannot take it oT leave it alone but plunge in clear up to the ears. I t ’» worse than the liquor habit. There are lots of people who cm take a little wine -for the’ stom ach’s sake and stop there, but the diabetes seem never to know where to stop, at least not until the doctor comes. Instead o f advocaitng a little diabetes for ton- old age .we think the doctor would be in bet- working for a law prohibiting it entirely. v doing and y k e i f t o is f o r a " most worthy enterprise, but ¡we do not see how they can legally «pend the taxpayere money for a charity outside their own county.
