Bored by Sensationalism The twilight of the sensationalists has come. The gods they challenged are either moribund, totally defunett, or so changed as to be unrecognizable. Respectability has become a joke; right and wrong, inextricably mingled, Louise Maunsell Field writes, in the North American Review. We are all so used to having "the frets of life" paraded tiefore us in their ugliest possible aspect that we no longer become excited or indignant. We can no longer be shocked .at any- thing, because we have become used to everything. Familiarity breeds in- difference at least as often as it does contempt. We can still, . some of us, be re- pelled ny vulgarity and bad taste; and we can most of us be bored. We were profoundly bored last season- by many plays that struggled to be dar- ing, and succeeded only in being dull. As for psychopathic studies pro- duced under the guise of fiction they may he well done and consequently in- teresting, or they may be merely te- dious; but they can't rely on "frank- ess" and "daring" any longer. ri H.

Mildmay Milverton - Mitchell New Hamburg Palmerston Parkhill Ripley St. Marys Radio Peculiarities Radio transmission reproduces not only the pitch and tone, but also the characteristic timbre of each mu- sical instrument, because each sound wave entering a microphone has not only the general characteristic of fre- •;ueney, but also infinitely smaller :eaves within the general frequency vave. These incidental—or supple- nental—waves within the tonal fre- quency wave are caused by the pe- uliar or characteristic timbre of the `nstrument producing the sound. For ,xample, the tonal frequencies of both Ile violin and the saxophone, playing 'he sane note, "A," will be identical, 'Iut the incidental "overtone" waves vithin the frequencies will be differ- ent and will also be transmitted, iden- -ifying the characteristic "form" or 'tinbre" of the instrument itself.

Under ordinary conditions it is a salt marsh covered in places by shal- low lakes about 30 miles long, 12 miles wide and 280 feet below sea level. At times of freshets, the lakes expand in- to a water body covering approxi- mately 50,000 acres. Water from the irrigating ditches of. the Imperial val- ley keeps the level of the lake fairly Constant and unless this is diverted it will continue to maintain its previous area despite heavy losses from evap- oration. Terraces slightly above sea level on the sides of the basin indicate that there was formerly present,a lake called "Lake Cabala," whin 'Was 12 tulles long and 80 miles wide: Horseshoe Superstitions There are varying views on the ori- gin of•the superstition concerning the .orseshoe. Some think it is lucky be- •ttuse it has seven nail holes in it. another idea is that the horseshoe is ueky because witches are afraid of 't. So if a horseshoe is placed out - hie your door, no witch will dare to eater. It is possible that one object .f hanging up horseshoes ib the old days was a desire to appear wealthy in the eyes ,of passers-by, for only a •omparativety rich man possessed a horse, shod with iron. 13y the a'ay, the luckiest horseshoe is sup- ,osed to be the first one shed by a mare, and you must lung titin with he opening at the for in order that he luck May hot drop out] Jones—I'm doggone tired of eating at home.
