being rather impromptu a number of
the clan could not be gathered in, but
enough were there to make of it a
very happy meeting. A big dinner

enjoyable diversion. Those present

Beating of Human Heart Recorded
Cardiograph Over Mile of Tele-
phone Line.
by
Heart beats have been successfully
recorded recently over a distance of
one mile by the aid of telephone wires
attached to a cardiograph. There is
a record of a similar attempt made in
England but the results were unsatis-
factory and its success in the United
States is believed to be the first. =
The cardiograph is a delicate ma-
chine used for the purpose of obtain-
ing the forces and intervals of heart
actions. It is operated electrically
and is one of the most recent inven-
tions used by physicans in the treat-
ment of heart trouble.
Recently a noted physician desired
to obtain a record of heart beats from
a patient who was too ill to be moved
to the laboratory containing the card-
iograph equipment. The physician ap-
proached New York Telephone Com-
pany with his problem and the com-
pany officials were quick to cooperate.
The nature of the case required im-
mediate action and within an hour the
circuit was completed between the
patient’s house and the laboratory
containing the cardiograph. The
wires were connected to the machine
and the physician’s assistant was sent
to the patient’s home with the neces-
sary lead pads which were attached
to the body. :
When a few minor changes had
been made in the circuit the machine
was put into operation and two com-
plete sets of heart beats were satis-
factorily obtained.

Pennsylvania’s Roads.
With the completion of the road
program for the State of Pennsyl-
vania for last year the State far sur-
passed the building program of all
other States of the nation with the
exception of New York and Texas.
There are now but four States in the
nation with more good paved road
than Pennsylvania and they are New
York, California, Texas and Indiana
but it has been estimated that after
the building program has been com-
pleted for this year that there will be
only one or two with more.
The added improved road in Penn-
sylvania has added materially to the
State and has been a great induce-
ment to tourists with the result that
much additional money is brought in-
to the State. This with the advertis-
ing that has been given the State re-
cently has been quite a benefit. There
are very few States in the United
States that can boast of better scen-
ery than the Pennsylvania mountains
and we find tourists coming from all
sections of the country to tour the
Keystone State. That in itself was
one of the big features brought out
in the late fight for the building of the
new railroad across Pennsylvania.
We, in this section of Pennsylvania,
are very fortunate in that we are sit-
uated right in the midst of the most
scenic part of the State and within a
radius we can have a variety of scen-
ery that one would be forced to travel
over several other States to find.
Pennsylvania is but coming into her
own and more tourists annually are |
adding the Keystone State in their
travels and it is due largely to the
act that one finds good paved roads
throughout the greater part of the
State.—Houtzdale Citizen.
Brakes Better Than Horns.
A current joke represents an auto-
mobile speeder who had run into a
skyscraper building saying with his
dying breath, “I blew my horn.”
Having chuckled over the whimsy,
consider it in the light of daily obser-
vations. What is the function of the
automobile horn? What does the
average driver understand its func-
tion to be? Up to a certain point
probably all persons would agree on
the answer. The horn is intended to
give warning of the approach of a
ear. It is to attract attention of those
in the path of the on-coming vehicle
and cause them to look to their safety.
But it is not to command them to
get out of the way, though that is
what many drivers regard it, if their
actions are fair indications of their
thought. - If they get into trouble
through insistence on going forward
when they should have stopped they
try to exculpate themselves by pro-
testing, “I blew my horn.”
The driver who does not respect the
equal right of others with himself to
the use of the highways is not fit to
have a license to operate a motor ve-
hicle. Sounding the horn when use
of the brake is called for should be
grounds for forfeiture of license.—Ex.
American Rat-Catchers for Australia.
Lord Howe Island, near the main-
land of Australia, has become so over-
run with rats and mice that the is-
land food supply is endangered. The
situation has grown so serious that
the inhabitants appealed to the Aus-
tralian government for help to fight
the ever-increasing rat-and-mouse
army; so the authorities arranged to
import rat-catchers from America.
The California barn owl was selected
for the job, it feeds almost exclusively
on rats, mice, gophers, and other
ground creatures generally considered
pests; so it happened that recently a
number of California barn owls were
collected at San Diego to be sent to
the pest-infested island.
The shipment of owls to Australia
was a bit of interesting news to Amer-
icans, but the news-interest should
not offset the warning to us, a lesson
for ourselves.
It is a fact generally accepted that
nature maintains her own balance
when undisturbed by man. If the is-
landers had not killed the natural en-
emies of the rats and mice, they prob-
ably would not have found it neces-
sary to import owls. We should not
regard the lesson lightly. Wherever
ground-squirrels, rats, mice and goph-
ers have increased to such numbers
as to cause serious damage, one sees
few hawks, owls, and eagles. Why?
Because of too many guns in the
hands of thoughtless men and boys
who are unwittingly creating a situa-
tion similar to that which is so alarm-
= : —
ing to the inhabitants of Lord Howe Island.—From “Our Dumb Animals.”
