Only a mother knows. Eut no doubt all the ton. kr memories that date back to when you were in your swad dling clothes, the cute little things you said and did vh:n a child, through your dangerous ape of maturity, into man and womanhood. All tho?e are the beautiful treasures of a mother. Yet. in the one day a year set asidj for the honor and respect of the mast sanctified earthly charac ter, how many think to send just a tender and loving word, or a little flower token to moth:-r. A day as sig nificant as Christmas, as Easter, as Decoration Day yet. most often, passed up by newspapers with a fc-wwvonJs of sentiment on the morn of Mothers' Day. May this serve as a gentle reminder to those, who in these hectic days of wild scrambling for money, position, fame. anH in some cases for just economic existence, lest Mothers' Day pass without a kind and appreciative word to mother. Make it full of sentiment the best is not too good for mother. o THE GREAT INSANITY ir ih-i;i.

Comment ing on his remarks the insurance field said he handed them an idea that illuminated the heavens of financial economy like an aurora borealis. "Imagine," said he, "the situation if the eminent secretary of the treasury, as the repersentative of the American people, started each day's work by causing to be thrown into the bot tomless reaches of the Atlantic Ocean forty-one living persons and a load of gold pieces worth $1,500,000. an amount equivalent to the per diem average of our na tional destruction by burning! The country would first stand aghast and then would call for an immediatj in vestigation by an authority on mental diseases. And yet the American public is staging practically the same performance every day in the year. "What, in effect, is the difference? In one case the lives and gold treasure would be lost to society in the other, equivalent lives and values are actually cast to the four winds; it is no figment of the imagination but a concrete occurrence. The sum total of destruc tion is made up of fires scattered over our land from coast to coast so that the people at large fail to ab sorb the full picture that represents our national ash heap and apparently are unable to grasp its true significance." i tl run ami hide! fall nut when the fi;htin As soon us K.ipijfpdy Andy stood up.

The above mantioned stations are also connected by wire with WYZ, General Electric station at Schenec tady. This wire system has been supplemented from time to time by the uso of short-wave radio transmission from WGY and KDKA. the Pittsburg broadcast station of the Westinghouse Klectric and Manufacturing Com pany. Wire connections between the Radio Cornora tion's New York station and the Westinghouse station KDKA, at Pitt-burg, and throu-h th?r to Chicago, are plarned for 102-".
