GREAT FUTURE FOR WIRELESS
Boys Who Plan to Make It Their Life
Work Should Know and Appre
ciate Its Value.
Before going into practice Instruc
tion it is important that the boys who
are to become the wirless men of the
future should appreciate the value
of such work. Wireless transmission of
messages and of the human voice is
becoming daily more common. In a
few years the entire system of com
munication throughout the world may
be transformed by wireless electrici
ty, and it is important that boys
should be able to take their part in it.
The amateur wireless station is a great
educator and gives the boys who
equip and operate it an excellent ed-
; ucation m the wonderful new science.
When the call came for wireless men
for the great war the amateur op
erators were able to take a prominent
part Thousands of boys who bad
taught themselves how to build sta
tions and run them were able to take
important positions in wireless sta
tions at sea and on shore. No other
country had so vast an army of self
taught wireless operators to call on.
Many of the boys who had taught
themselves all they knew of the sci
ence rose to occupy important posi
tions. It is not generally known that
it was an amateur wireless man who
was chosen to fly across the Atlantic
on the NC-4 on her famous flight.

HAS BOTH MEMORY AND SCAR
Two Excellent Reasons Why One Man
Will Remember That He Was
Kicked by a Mule.
A kick from a mule is guaranteed
to make just about as much impres
sion on the memory as it does on the
anatomy. Yet Clyde D. Jarvis has
made sure that he will n6t forget the
kick 'he received from a Missouri
beast of burden for the rest of his
natural life.
Jarvis applied at Houston, Texas,
for enlistment in the marine corps
and was accepted. He exhibited 3
scar about six inches long on the left
side of his abdomen, and explained it
was the result of an operation he had
undergone some six months before,
for a supposed ruptured spleen, fol
lowing the kick frowa the mule.
The operating surgeon had made
the wrong diagnosis, however, and
found that Jarvis' spleen was O. K.
Tattooed above the scar in large let
ters were the words, "Opened by mis-
fair a 1
