(By Ye Compiler) Definitions of a Kiss A thing of no use to anyone, but much prized by two. The baby's right, the lover’s privilege, the parents’ benison. That which you cannoi: give without taking and cannot take without giving. The flag of truce in the petty wars of courtship and marriage. The acme of agony to a bashful man. The only known smack that will calm a storm. A telegram to the heart in which the operator uses the sounding system. Nothing divided by two. Not enough for one, just enough for two, too much for three. The only really agreeable two-faced action in the world. The thunderclap of the lips which inevitably follows the lightning glance of the eyes. A report at headquarters. Everybody's acting edition of Romeo and Juliet. What the child receives free, what the yoTing man steals, and what the old man buys. That in which two heads are better than one. “It’s the little things in life that tell,” said the girl as she dragged her kid brother from beneath the sofa. Ex.

Esau was a hairy man who lived in the wilderness. He wrote many fables and sold his coi^yright for a mess of potash. (Jeorge Washington married Mary Curtis and in due time became the father of his country. The German emperor is the Geyser. A ruminating animal is one that chews her cubs. Girls Who Go Unkissed “There are some girls who are never kissed,” according to an article in The Washington Star. '‘The Japanese lov er, for instance, does not salute his betrothed in our fashion. He regards kissing as a queer foreign custom; it has no meannig for him. In China the kiss is considered disgraceful. “But although the kiss is unknown or at any rate neglected in many parts of the world, nearly every nation has some form of salutation which cor responds with the Euroj)can kiss. The Malays and the Eskimos greet each other by rubbing noses. Among the Burmee.s the form of greeting which de notes affection is to apply the cheek and draw a long breath,” Cupid’s Garden We entered Cupid’s Garden, We wandered o’er the land : The air was sweet and balmy As I held her little—.shawl. Yes, held her little shawl— How fast the moment flies. The moon was shining brightly As Is gazed into her—lunch-basket. Yes, gazed into her lunch-basket— 1 wi.shed I had a taste. I crept up close beside her. Put my arm about her—umbrella. Embracing her umbrella— The dainty little miss Once more crept up be«ide her. And slyly stole a—sandwich.

The World’s • Loudest Voice On the rolling plains cf South Schenectady, in several scattered buildings, is a vast laboratory for studying radio broadcasting problems. Gathered here are many kinds and sizes of transmitters, from the short-wave and low-power sets to the giant super-power unit with a 50- to 250-kilowatt voice. Super-power and simultaneous broadcasting on several wave lengths from the same station are among the startling later-day developments in radio. And even with hundreds of broadcasting stations daily on the air throughout the land, these latest developments stand for still better service to millions of listeners. Only five years old, yet radio broadcasting has developed from a laboratory experiment into a mighty industry. And alert, keen young men have reaped the rewards. But history repeats itself. Other electrical develop ments will continue to appear. And it will be the college man, with broad vision and trained mind, who will be ready to serve and succeed. i GENERAL- ELECTRIC GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, SCHENECTADY, NEW YOR^
