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. Boys' Life. 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 Major-General John A.
