NEW WIRELESS STATION :
AT N. C. STATE COLLEGE
Station WLAC, the :new - wireleass
transmitting station at State College,
will lie. formally openefl Monday even
ing, October 16, Mrt. Edith Vanderbilt,
Governor Cameron Morrison, Josephus
Danieta, Frank Page, IrvW. C,. Riddick
and other distinguishe-i .speakers feeing
on the program for StWresses.
Tho exercise will begin at eight
o'clock and due to. the limited amount
of space'available. admission will be by
cftrd only.
Tho radio station is under the direc
tion of Cnptaiw'George C. Cox, formerly
of the Sicnal Corps. A.'K. F., but now
connected with the department or fclec
trieal Engineering of the College, under
whose Bupemsion the station lias Deen
built and assembled by students iu the
electrical rmrineerinar courses.
Earlv in the soring Captain Uox and-Ius
assistants installed transmitting equip
ment at the station for the special pur
pose of broadcasting the series of ser
mons delivered by ur. jforge i ruitt in
the city auditorium. Only a partial
success, however, was achieved as the
home made equipment was unable to
stand the ' high voltage necessary in
sending long distances, although a num
ber of people near flhfcigh heard the
sermons distinctly.
During the summer the station nas
been entirely rebuilt and greatly im
proved by the addition of some of the
more recently developed devices. For
the last month the station has been test
ing out and cards received from various
parts of the country indicate that it is
now covering, at night, a radius of
about one thousand ;' iiules with the
probability that tho distance will be
doubled or even trebled.
The State College wireless station has
been built primarily to serve the people
of North Carolina. On a definite sched
ule to be announced later, it will broad
cast daily (1 agricultural stock and
market reports, (2) various other agri
cultural statistics, (3) agricultural news
items of interest, (4) State and Federal
weather reports for North and South
Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee, (5)
genefal news items from the press, nnd
(6) State College news including full
reports of all athletic contests.
Three nights . each week there win be
musical programs by the State College
band or the Glee Clubs of Peace, Mere
dith and St. Marys. Local artists , and
distinguished entertainers visiting the
city will also use the station for broad
casting their programs.
Once a month the North . Carolina
Bankers' Association will send out spec
ial lectures on banking and elementary
economics, and. Members of the State
College faculty, from. time to time, will
address tbep eople of the State on
timely .subjects.
Station WLAC will .. transmit on a
wave length of 500 meters.

AbbeviHe Citizen Has
Strange Healing Power
Joe Munday Says Strange Power Has
. Been Handed Down in Hie Familly
For Generations.
ABBEVILLE, a C, Oct. 16. Abbe
ville has a man who claims to be possess
ed of a strange healing power. His
name is Joe Munday aud helives near
Buzzard Roose church on the Abbeville
Hodge road. . He is a middle-aged
square-set fellow with a face as full of
freckles as a turkey egg is full of spots.
He is of ordinary education and attain
ment' but believes-absolutely in himself
and. la his power to heal. '
ne .says this power has been in his
family for generations and is handed
down from mother to son and from fath
er to daughter. ' That a nuin cart teach
a woman to heal but not a man, and a
woman can teach a man but hot another
woman. The power is passed dowu
through the sexes in this cross-wise way.
The Muiidaya live at the old home
stead. One brother. Rink Munday, hits
lived there for 55 years and has never
been away Jonger than two weeks during
this tim.
Joe Munday believes firmly that he has
the power to heal and that this power is
God given. He says he can cure any
kind of skin aJ9teetion or disease like
eczema or pellagra, 'or any. hemorrhage or
bleeding. He cites1 various causes and
marvelous cures he baa made. He makes
no charge for the treatment and claims
that bis power would be taken from him
if he accepted pay. His power is a
secret and he will not reveal it.
All that is necessary for you to do to
be healed, he pays, is to tell him your
name and he will -Jpok into your eyes,
and presto, yen are well. v There are
words he uses in his "mind, but that be
longs to the secret.
Joe Munday 'a family believe him pos
sessed of this strange power. Recently
one of the children while playing 'near
the house cut a toe nearly off, and the
story goes that a playmate ran in haste
for the mother, who kept en with her
work saying Joe was there.a'ud he would
beal it. They claim he did. ;
He also tells a story of being able to
beal animals as well as people. A mule
while plowing in a field stepped on J a
broken bottle and cut a gash in his foot
causing great loss of blood. The Healer
was sent for. He approached the mule
and looked into his eyes and the bleed
in gstopped instantly.

What Are You Missing?
NO one can want anything until tie knows of its
existence. That is why ancient folk managed to
live fairly contented lives without window glass, soap,
automobiles, stoves, toothbrushes, telephones and' so
many of the things we consider the bare necessities of
life. ,
Advertising has done more than any one thing to make
this era of ours so rich in comforts and conveniences.-
To advertising is directly due much of the multiplica
tion of products and services which are now at the dis-1
posal of every one. 1 .
i ' " ''; - ' ' . : ' .-.
There is no denying theiact that advertising has iron-
ed out the-mechanics of existence. It has made life
easier nd more pleasant by bringing to our attention
