ped ag Sl 2g What Is Really Needed i N experiment was recently performed on one of the Lackawanna trains which A indicates that it will soon be possible for people to talk over wireless telephones. t An operator on the train, which was going about fifty miles an hour, talked with case to an operator in the railroad station miles and miles away, and he talked through the air. With all due respect to our modern scientists, we think that their activities are | taking place in the wrong direction. What they ought to do is to invent something | that will restrict those people who already talk over the telephone from talking as much as they do. If the particular scientist who made this invention will please invent an | instrument that can be attached to any woman, and limit her conversation over the telephone, he will confer a real favor upon humanity. 5 Pageantry of history Pageantry of nature.
